"I can't believe that happened to me... to us."
"Why did you say that it's us? I am only telling you a story, right?"
Cue looked at him angrily.
"If it is really just a story why don't you start telling it from the beginning since I don't really understand the story."
Before Lukileon says another thing, Cue stands up and went to the kitchen.
"Where's my salad?!" she suddenly shouted and Lukileon quickly shuts her mouth.
"Shhhhh... it's only the two of us here so you don't need to shout. The other four already ate it... I think." He is not confident in saying this since Cue face says she's going to murder whoever is the culprit.
Lukileon almost forgot what angers the girl most. In her last lifetime he found out that she is a foodie hidden in her bones. Now because Cue grow up in not a very good environment she learns to eat what is available. Now that she is living well her love for foods is growing each day.
In her last lifetime Hikari is reborn as a daughter of a couple of chefs. She is name Cocina. She isn't a vocal person in this lifetime but her passion for eating makes her stand out. She eats different food everyday and if the food is to her liking she will make it and give to street people. If the food is not good for her she will tell her parents to never cook the same food ever again. Her parents listen to her because they know how picky her taste buds.
The foods that where like by her became popular in the market and it is very sought by the wealthiest. Those that weren't good for her are sometimes banned. One time while walking around eating a dessert called "Mango float" a burglar ran into her and her food was smashed. The burglar never see another day, just some minutes after the food is wasted. His body is smashed on the pavement beside the wasted dessert.
Aside from wasting food, Cocina want to taste food that she made, but if she didn't even tasted it she will beat the person or persons who ate it till they vomit what they eaten. Even her parents didn't get away when they finished accidentally a plate of purple salad that she made.
Cue's previous lifetime is a little fresh in her system, she can't remember anything but her body, instinct and emotion can.
Before Cue gets wild Lukileon told her this, her lifetime before "Cue". He also silently confirms that the story he narrates is a true story of them.
In the previous lifetime they never meet but Lagim ordered Milo to observe Cocina. In that time Lagim is in a deep slumber but no one knows where is his body. Even Milo couldn't find or even communicate with Lagim. As a loyal subordinate he only willingly followed the order to observe Cocina.
Aside from personal happening between Lagim and the girl with the same face, Milo know everything.
The Gods and Goddesses flip every nooks and crannies just to find out where is Lagim's body. They heard that he is in a deep slumber but they can't find him, it is their chance to kill him yet they can't find the body whatever they do. It's just like that Lagim's existence is gone from that time. They also followed Milo to find out if he knows where is Lagim but it is all for nothing because Milo is also trying to find a way to even just to communicate with Lagim.
Lagim and Cocina never meet but the girl still died at a young age of ten because of fatigue.
The girl never pass the age of thirteen. But in the current lifetime of her as Cue she is still young. Lukileon never let her out of his sight afraid that he will lose her again.
In their world thirteen is the right age for marriage for the girls, but they have the option of rejecting the marriage if not to their liking though they will have a hard time finding a partner next.
"We never meet previously but I still died and I never passed the age of thirteen? I am cursed aren't I? Don't answer. I am definitely cursed!"
"I'm sorry." that's all what Lukileon could say and he took a deep breath.
Cue hugs him tightly and she inhales deeply Lukileon's scent. How hurt he must be not having a forever with the person that makes his heart beat.
She doesn't care about herself being cursed or whatsoever but she can't take the pain Lukileon must feel of loosing her everytime.
