Alves still had a generous amount of mirth sitting in his face...Reap! Sweep! Alves suddenly felt a great force hit him from inside. It was as though he was hit by a big rock from the inside. As though his inside was crushed by a big tyre of a long truck. Not only was the effect sudden, but it was painful, it hurt so badly... so badly that Alves puked blood. "Ow... Ow..."Alves couldn't tell what was happening. This wasn't what he had asked for. Why the hell was this happening to him? He couldn't tell. He didn't even have enough time to wonder and ponder about it. He had thrown up another cup of blood, this time, a little thick and ball type. More like a clot. "What the f--fuck is happening to me?"Alves was having a great trouble putting together his words. It was at that moment that he realised that making words only didn't come from the brain, other parts of the body down there do the job while the lips and brain take the credit for it. He was hanging in the air like a corpse,
The feeling was surreal and otherworldly. He didn't even know how it happened but he enjoyed it. It was as though two forces had control over his sense of being. At a point it felt like he was in charge of his own mind, at the other he felt like he was just a keeper of his own body while someone had invaded his mind. He could see the end of the lake in sight. Before he could make a request, he had been thrown into the air, doing crazy and acrobatic backflips and he descended and approached the earth. He made a sensous landing on the earth. He had never felt so light, accomplished and graceful like he did at that moment. It was as though a new version of him had just been unlocked. Or perhaps he had just unlocked a new character. He looked at the forest up ahead of him. At this moment, he couldn't even think of Akulia anymore. He was caught up in the unreal feeling leased by these unprecedented actions and events. "Speed!"Alves called at the window pop-up which never left his pre
There were a couple reasons that Alves was surprised. Of course when he had planned on returning to this kingdom, he had come with the expectation to meet Mia. And now on seeing her, there was a wave of great shock that hit him. He couldn't really tell what the reaction was. He just stood there watching her. He should say something to her but he couldn't. She had seen him too. And immediately she saw him, she got up on her feet. Her eyes were mild but curious. Alves couldn't really tell what to make of her expression. At first he thought she was mad at him or something. She had the right to be if she was. He had been away for about two weeks. But then browsing his memories, he couldn't really tell why he was being so hard on himself. Himself and Mia were not dating before he left her in Huthi Farmland the other day. But then following their encounter in the Huthi Farmland where the ALUWA referred to her as the Queen. Alves did realised that they might owe each other than either
Alves reached out one of his hands slowly. Till the palm touched the warm cheek of the person lying next to him on the large and comfortable bed. Mia. As soon as his palm touched her cheek, his thumb got to work, caressing the curve of her cheek, in a sensuous manner. Her heard her nose push out a great amount of warm air. And their eyes met. Her face had a great deal of joy seeped in it. She looked to be quite happy. And if not happy, at least satisfied. Her expression seemed well defined, yet to an extent it seemed remote. "Is this real? Are you real?"He wasn't sure which of the questions he had meant to ask in the first place. But since both question pointed in the same direction of an answer, he didn't bother to take any of them back. He just stared at her, awaiting her response. She chuckled softly, her eyes not leaving his. She pushed her head a little bit up to press her lips to the fall of his palm. She sniffed it a bit. Alves still didn't say a word. He looked to be mor
"Oh shit, Grandma."Alves cussed out loudly. At first he had no idea why. He really couldn't tell why he was feeling so jumpy as the voice came. He didn't know how to take this or how to react to it. But he was starting to get ideas. "Grandma? What do you mean Grandma? Or did you mean to say Grandpa?"That was Mia trying so hard not to get confused. Alves rolled off the bed, hardly answering her question. The knock had come from the door which led to the other parts of the tower, so Alves thought that he had a choice. "Let's go. You said you were on your way."Alves walked briskly to Mia and grabbed her by the wrist. He wanted to lead her towards the door which led to the hanger. That was the best escape route she could ever take. He had proportioned his body in the direction of the door. But he felt a weird force holding him back. When he turned, he realised that Mia was refusing to budge. His eyes squinted. Not in rage precisely, but he couldn't really tell what he was feeling a
Mia was lying in bed and Alves was standing by the bed side. He was staring at her cold and mild face and wishing that a sort of miracle would happen. At least she would open her eyes even if not speak yet. Alves didn't know what to do yet. But he did know that she didn't die. She just passed out. So, all she needed was enough rest. But then while he stood there wondering, he got quite an idea that tend to be useful,"Is there no doctor around here? At least someone to bring her back. I mean, she might just happen to need a little bit of this and that."There was much concern in his tone as he gawked at Akulia who was now seated on the floor like an alms beggar. Alves didn't care about the position of the fellow, for all he knew he was still mad at him. He was only biding his time to get the appropriate timing to beat the fuck out of him. And he couldn't really tell how quickly that would come. But for now, his priority was making sure that Mia was alright. "No, there is no doctor
How could it be his fault though? He couldn't bring himself to fault. All he could do was blame everything on,THAT CRAZY JERK! HE CAUSED THIS. HOW WOULD I HAVE BEEN ABLE TO THINK THAT IT WAS GRANDMA? I THOUGHT IT WAS THAT FOOL TRYING TO PULL A PRANK ON ME AGAIN. Alves didn't know how to react or what to say. OH SHIT, I'M IN FOR HELL TODAY. LOOK AT HER EYES. OH GOD THEY ARE SO SCARY. HOW CAN THE EYES OF AN OLD WOMAN BE THESE THREATENING AND SCARY?Alves realised that his worries were much more than he would agree to admit to. HOW DO I EXPLAIN TO HER THAT I DIDN'T MEAN IT THAT WAY? HOW SHOULD I TELL HER THAT I MISTOOK HER FOR SOMEONE ELSE?Alves tried not to shake his head even though that was exactly what he was tempted to do. He puffed, swallowing every now and then. He could never had thought that a minute could be this long. If he was told that a second could feel like a week, he might had punched the person who said the words in the face. Then suddenly he got an idea. YES! I
"You called for a sudden meeting."One of the many elders threw the words at Azuga. Azuga as usual didn't look a little bothered, let alone let that get to him at all. "You do know that we do not just seat around. We all have something doing. We want to believe that you have made this calling because of something with great relevance."The man kept pushing as though he had been seeking for a medium to take out his rage on the fellow. "Why don't we just listen to what he's got to say?"Another of the elders countered the man who had a tough and stern face. Azuga allowed himself to be distracted for a while as he took a quick glance at the man who had tried to speak up for him. "After all, there is not much to be worried about. All we have to do was a conference with the neighboring winds and we'll be off the sight. Sincerely I have no idea what this fuss is all about."The fellow who had taken the stance seemed to be more talkative than the first elder. Azuga didn't dare interrupt.
