chapter 17

I went closer to the man and looked right into his wide opened eyes and he blinked twice and breathed heavily.

He's alive! I exclaimed happily but I guess he must have heard my voice but couldn't see me cus am only but an air.

My name is Tsushima! I told him loudly,the trees and mountain echoing my voice and a mighty wind began to blow .

I needed him to get scared so he can run farther into the wood to meet my human body .

Ghost ... Ghost... He shouted and took off into the wood .

For some reason I believed I did something nice after so many lives that was destroyed because of my wrong decision.

I made him feel my presence which made him run more into the wood until he arrived the wooden house were my body lay. He pleaded help from my friends and I. For the first time in over ten thousand decades pesi and Ivan cried for been seen by a mere mortal, I wasn't much bothered since I've lived two decade of my life as human so I guess am just too use to been seen except for my other self; Tsushima that existed even though am a human

.

He was received after his narration on how his step brothers threw him into the wood to be devoured by wild animals robbing him off his right as the crowned prince.

"Your papa Jesse was actually the man whom I saved. " ma Mia dropped the bomb shell as I looked at papa Jesse who just nodded and smiled.

Papa Jesse didn't want to return to his kingdom as he believed that humans are cruel and he needs a peaceful and quiet life so he suggested we use the wood and build a house where we can call a home.

That was how the wooden house came about. As time went by I started trusting him and felt I could tell him anything. So I placed my life story as a dream I do have that usually come true, and honestly it always comes as dream only that I know it's my real self.

Even with my dreadlock I was dangerously beautiful that he's always lost most times staring at me . I was the goddess of love so I wasn't surprised he fell in Love with me but I never thought I would reciprocate his love until the very day he wrote to about his feelings for me.

Initially I knew it would happen and I was prepared to turn him down knowing the consequences of a goddess loving a mere mortal.

I read through the note he stuffed into my hand during our usual morning walk around the wood, I was so mesmerized with the photocopy of his love I had in my hands.

"I cant promise that I'll be here for the rest of your life but I can promise that I'll love you for the rest of mine.I loved you from the day i met you, there was like a connection between us and i think it will always be there no matter what happens I love you & I always will."

Even though I hated the fact that he loved me I couldn't help but to memorize each line, it somehow made me really happy. My spirit detest his love for me but my heart wouldn't endure letting him go.

"Who will keep my company if he ever leaves? " I would ask myself, not really sure if this was a love I could let go.

I couldn't count days or probably minutes I spent after reading his heartfelt love letter before running to give him a quick reply before it gets late.

I gave love but the love we felt for each other was unmeasurable so we had to tie the nut with pesi and Ivan as our witness.

Our nuptial night became our worst nightmare.
