In her sleep Iris met that Deity again. This time she could see her face very clearly. She had very beautiful and long black hairs like it was the night sky on its own, and little stars like ornaments were woven into her hairs. Her pale skin had a pinkish glow and didn't felt gloomy, in fact she was giving a warm feeling. Her eyes were the color of blue like sea, a very deep shade of blue and enchanting to look at. She was wearing a silky white gown that didn't looked heavy even though it was embeded with small diamonds and gold accessories, really her beauty was unparalleled...
Her eyes looked sad, like she was in despair and pain but there was one more emotion present in those deep blue eyes, all that sadness felt like it was trying to hide it, very desperately at that but it couldn't be hidden from Iris's eyes,she saw that there was LOVE!!! BUT WHY???? WHY WOULD SHE TRY TO HIDE THAT?? WHY WAS SHE IN PAIN???? JUST WHY?
Something stirred inside Iris's heart, she also felt pain when she looked at that diety, it was as if she knew her, she could feel the same thing. As if THEY HAD A DEEP CONNECTION BETWEEN THEM, something ETERNAL!!!!
HER HEART ACHED FOR HER!!!!!! WHY??
She wanted to confort her, hug her and tell her that SHE'S HERE!!!!! SHE'LL LISTEN TO HER!!!
But before she could say anything she saw that the beautiful scenery in front of her eyes changed.
Just a moment ago there was only that beautiful Deity but now she was in a beautiful garden with the Deity but this time she was not alone!!!! There was another person there!!!
IT WAS A MAN, with a strong aura surrounding him but it was not scary rather it felt safe. Iris got curious about this new person so she tried to approach him secretly, hiding behind a large fountain. "Seriously! even though this place is inside my dream but my goodness!!! This place is really magnificent!!! It would be really amazing if this place really existed".
Iris's curiosity really got her, she wanted to know who that guy was, so she waited for him to turn around. And when Iris saw that man's face she got Another surprise :)
"Ha... Seriously!!! I'm done with surprises."
Right next to that beautiful Deity was a familiar face, he was IRIS'S FATHER!!! YES YOU HEARD IT RIGHT!!! IT WAS HER FATHER!! :)
And to her surprise ( Again )Her father and the Deity were pretty close with each other, in fact they were sitting under a beautiful large tree that was in full bloom and with the wind flowing swiftly its leaves and branches looked as if they were dancing. That Deity's head was on his shoulder and his hand was hugging her and his another hand was holding her hands.
They looked HAPPY TOGETHER, looking at them Iris felt as if the time stopped when they were together, anyone who'll look at them will know instantly that they were made for each other. Upon closer look, it seems they were talking about something.. important.
"Well... I'm not the type to eavesdrop on someone but i can't seem to ignore it party because of my curiosity and partly because it's about the Deity who was with none other than Her father!!! and it's not as if I WANTED to see and HEAR all of this, so it wouldn't be wrong to know more, right? "
Iris's father " Freya, we can finally meet each other after a whole freaking WEEK !!! because we both were busy due to our duties. Sigh! it's so hard to meet my wife even though we are married now But look at us even though 'I' am the Emperor of this Empire but i can't take leave for A SINGLE DAY!!!! ;)
to meet you, and see your beautiful smile. "
Iris's thought " Hmmm..... so he is sulking right now? about how he is unable to meet his dear wife?
wait!!..... wife?? WIFE!!!!????
Then... does..does that mean .... sh.. she... This Deity.... is... is..... MY MOTHER!!!??
No way!!!! It can't be!!! how can someone so magnificent like her be a mere human being?
But if it's true!! then... ?
Did this Deity wanted me to see all of this? To tell me that she's my mother? Then the person she asked me to take care of was.... was it this man? My father , Her husband?
But he doesn't seem like the kind of person that needs to be taken ca...
( Iris didn't get to complete her words because she she suddenly remembered a scene from before, of how this person who was her father carried her in his arms and was crying helplessly, he looked so miserable.... he looked like someone who was in dire need to love, to be taken care of, to be comforted.) "
There was so much going on inside her little mind when she suddenly woke up from that dream to the sound of people moving around her. She felt annoyed because of the noise that woke her up from that surreal dream. When she opened her eyes she saw that everything has changed around her, the room was much bigger than before where she fell asleep, and there were also many servants , some were cleaning, some were beside her with trays full of baby food and milk on them,others with toys, some were just obediently standing with their head bowed down taking orders from someone. When that person was done with giving them orders, she came to her ( Iris ) and lifted her with care ,keeping her close to her heart. It was none other than Countess Josephina Roberte, her nanny who was holding her.
She was trying to comfort baby Iris who just woke up from the noise.
While Iris was drinking her milk given by her nanny, she was also making quite "Important" Decisions inside her tiny brain.
" Since I've already came to this world, then I'll take this chance to live a happy life without a care. "
She also started to feel comfortable in this new body of hers.
" Well, It's not that bad to be in child's body, Because I'm so 'smart ', and i don't have anything better to do then this. This time I promise myself that I'll never let myself be deceived by anyone!!"
