“You were meant for greater things; you are unique and very, very special.”351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyOCiKs16NK
And then something weird happened. I noticed a little drop coming out of my left351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAcY6W8sO5E
eye. I felt it slide down my face without purpose, like some lost freshet unable to find351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB6slVAdgcl
its destination “You understand?” he grabbed my shoulders “Do you?” He shook them351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsxzZXoPhCO
just carefully enough “And to be special, to be unique is...”351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7E0DHdopRV
“Is to be alone?” I could not help but sob.351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0hl1gPvsk9
“Oh, come now,” He placed one of his old trembling hands on my forehead,351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7K8mSBXjG2
“You are just going through, shall we say, a tumbling of emotions; something351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4T9LaLOPXK
completely natural for a young born such as yourself.” He smiled straight at me,351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfES3aOP7Rx
it gave me comfort “But I can guarantee you that in just a few hours from now, none351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWSKBNM7F1T
of these things will have any effect on you. None of these rumbling emotions that may351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJZRGrSi2dH
now be tearing at you from the inside will carry any weight. Give it a bit of time and351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcT19yhjnhL
you will easily evolve beyond that, hold on for just a while - can you do that for me?”351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUUaFVWsj5w
I did not find the need to throw a single word at him, I knew he had seen right351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1fdNljVpck
through me and my big wet eyes, the moment I sobbed for the second time.351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMXy3gKtSu8
“I am telling you, just give time the chance to work its magic for it alone can make all351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR01fHQk2QL
things easier.” He slowly stood up.351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ufXhHeSwH
“You know, the passing of time will undoubtedly grant you many gifts my dear, great351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0I9unmjwEx
knowledge and even greater power, of that I am sure. But no gift will ever be bigger351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTvJ4NHKgri
than experience and the calluses that this one will grow around your heart and your351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHP1TyfMxD
mind. They will remain there to try and protect you and ensure that you always make351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSFVsjZqZsB
the right call.” He threw another quick glimpse outside that room “Why, I am certain351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrroVgQnZpv
that when the time comes for us to say goodbye to one another, you will not even shed351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDNVwRIaRLj
a tear.” He turned to me again just in time to catch another of those eye drops with his351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhNqmhXJVHy
trembling index finger: “You will be far too evolved to care for such things. So instead,351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJjXiNVNGZs
I think I will hold on to this one.”351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdFGeQUA8Ap
“I hope that is not true.” I looked away because at that moment I simply could not351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuzIYScVkdA
look at him, my chest was hurting so much. Instead, I took one last look around that351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDqM6ABQwzI
room for something was telling me that I would not see it again; and even though351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8WA7HZLxOC
those painful memories were still piercing me every time my eyes noticed something351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB44tq0vxbv
new, they still couldn’t hurt me anywhere near as much. It would take me a while.351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1QSk9PsMBw
“You ready?” But that was time we did not have.351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHDft0a0ejR
“If the time ever comes for us to depart, I will shed many more of those for you,351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVrVpt6DOH2
Father.” He looked somewhat puzzled at me, and I felt my cheeks burn more than ever351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBfvsA4Cppb
before. “You were the one that woke me, were you not?” I asked after patting my cheeks351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOTZPd80l2C
a few repeated times, desperately trying to cool them, or at least erase that pinkish hue351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvgmKQjSSh7
I was sure to be colouring them. “The one that brought me into this conscious state?”351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxS5RfaAP35
I took it gently for I felt nervous treading through such words “It seems then to me351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZpNCrmkYzm
that the term fits quite appropriately. Or does it bother you?”351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMEx7vdkFN2
“No.” He said before focusing his eyes again on what was going on outside;351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdvPM3ZCmwv
“No, it doesn’t bother me.” and then he held my hand “I just have not been called that351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnzee0bspL2
in a very long time.”351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQpdl1OGrqd
“I promise I will try not to wear it down.” I smiled immediately after and he did too.351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkTK69tsIUk
That moment however, was not allowed to last as the increasing happenings on the351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBvFkw1En6m
outside magnified his haste, and by proxy, mine.351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUBjWPhxKVC
“We need to wait for just the right time,” he grumbled.351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgYFCyP9f12
“Maybe... maybe...” I repeated a few times.351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm3umzpFK0G
“Huh?” he asked before immediately realising... “Oh!”351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw2O8HkZbxk
“Maybe...” my eyes were still glued to that sign, previously some luteous gibberish351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm3a1UBIFmX
but now something more, words without sound that I could understand, read...
