Chapter 8 - Chapter 8 - Realisation

Uriel went to follow Angeline but Angeline used her powers to stop him from following her as she kept blocking the way behind her as she moves towards her room. Uriel realised how much he had hurt her and he hurt her again by having a fight with her because of his jealousy and selfishness. He did not lose his power because he did not intented to hurt her feelings and he did not do anything violent or feel any greed or wanting to do evil, he maybe jealous and almost lost his composure when he got jealous but he still tried to be patient because he knows the consequences, his pearl power got weakened but he still has the power, as well as his angelic power because well, he is the one in control of his own angelic power and God is in control as well, but since he realised his mistake, repented and confessed, God forgives him. Angeline is still thinking about it crying in her room, if she will accept and forgive him again but scared that he might hurt her feelings again; that he will leave her again for a long time. She understands that he needs time to be with his friends but she also has friends back in their home country, and even her best friend lives back in their home country, although she is with them finally because she invited him to the ball and let her travel on her private plane with her relatives, Uriel's friends are there at the ball too because he did the same to them to be at the ball. However, she felt really hurt when Uriel forgot about her, her feelings, her personality, and who she is. Uriel finally went to his own room, since they still have their own, despite the fact that they are married, and he was sleeping with Angeline at her room but this time, he cannot be with her because they had a fight and he has hurt her feelings so much. Gabriel was also crying in his room and then he heard Angeline crying as well, as he uses his power again to find out how she is doing. Gabriel then contacted Angeline using his element of Sound.

Gabriel: Angeline, are you okay? Are you still crying because of what I said or because of Uriel?

Angeline: I had a fight with Uriel.

Gabriel: Oh I am sorry, I guess it was because of me.

Angeline: No. It is just because he was acting like a jerk that he forgot all about me, he even told me that he forgot about checking my feelings whenever he goes, and what I don't like about people, he forgot alot of things about me!!

Gabriel: I should have not let him have you, although you were already married. I wish there is something I could do, so that you won't get hurt anymore because of him. I wish I could take you away from him, and I will definitely make you happy. I won't make you cry and won't let anyone to hurt you physically, emotionally, and mentally. I regret letting you be with him that time. I should have not let you go and be with him, so you won't be married with him.

Angeline: Huh? What do you mean?

Gabriel: It was supposed to be me. You were supposed to be mine but you chose to be with him that time and followed him. Then you both decided to become human to get married, it took me 7 years before I decided to be human as well to follow you, to follow my heart. We were best friends but you left me because you wanted to be with him. I didn't want to let you go but I wanted you to be happy. I would rather see you happy, even if it is with someone else. I was hurt, and decided not to follow you, even if my heart tells me to follow you here until I realised I can't manage not being with you. I kept worrying about you. I saw how clumsy you are and always hurting yourself when you were a kid. I really should have not let you go that time when you wanted to be with him, if only I knew this would happen.

Angeline: I... I finally remember, you are right. There was someone I thought I was forgetting before I chose to be with Prince Michael, there was someone else I was missing, my best friend that time, the one who always made me feel happy, the one who loves me, but I could not give it back because I love Prince Michael. I always look up to him because he is so strong and he cares for me. He was always there to save me from harm, to protect me. Gabriel! I am so happy that you're here with me, that you followed me. You're really my best friend.

Gabriel: Yeah... best friend... again.. you have another best friend from you're country who is here as well right? It is okay, you don't need to call me best friend. Someone else might get jealous of me again.

Angeline: What are you saying? I should be happier because I got 2 best friends. A human best friend, and an angel best friend. Oh... right.. I.. I don't know if I can be your best friend.. because I... I can't say it I am sorry. I wish we could turn back the past before we became human, and choose..

Gabriel: Me instead of him?

Angeline: Ah! Uhmm.. I..

Gabriel: Charmeine, its okay. You don't need to say it. I know how hard it is. Can you open your door?

Angeline then opens the door to her room and saw Gabriel waiting in front of her door and he goes inside her room.

Angeline: What are you doing here? What if Uriel finds out you came here?

Gabriel: Don't worry, he is in his room and what if he finds out? I am not going to back out anymore and let him do as he pleases. I let him have you but after what happened and seeing your face like this, even if you two are married, I don't care, I will be with you and I will protect you from him. I am not going to let him hurt you anymore and make you cry like this.

Angeline: Gabriel...

Gabriel then hugs her tight to comfort her and make her feel that he is always there for her.

Angeline: Thanks Gabriel. You're really always there for me. Why didn't I realise it sooner that I should have chosen you before. I should have listened and didn't follow my feelings for him, if I knew I would hurt like this. *Why do I feel so calm and safe in his arms like this? I feel at peace and happy with him hugging me like this. It feels different from when Uriel hugs me or when Michael hugs me. Could it be that I... I am.. I am actually in love with him? Is it really Gabriel? Should I really have chosen him? or am I really happy with Prince Michael? I know I feel protected and safe with Prince Michael, I know he loves me but am I happy? Will I be happy with Prince Michael? Or will I be happier if I was with Gabriel? I also feel protected and safe in Gabriel's arms and it really feels different from Uriel's arms. I feel passion and love in Uriel's arms, but I feel protection and love in Gabriel's arms.*

Gabriel: Are you starting to feel okay?

Angeline: Yes. Thank you. Uhmmm.. Gabriel.. are you going back to your room? Can we stay like this?

Gabriel: Are you sure? Uriel might come.

Angeline: I blocked the way even if his room is across mine and my door is locked.

Gabriel: What if he found out I stayed with you tonight?

Angeline: I thought that doesn't matter? He hurt my feelings, he forgot a lot about me, he and his best friend looks more like a married couple than me and him. He seems to like her more than me, because he does not treat me right.

Gabriel: You have a point, and yeah I promised you that I will protect you from him, so I will stay with you.

Angeline: Thanks, Gabriel.

Gabriel: Charmeine, I wish I was the one you married.

Angeline: I feel the same.

Gabriel: Really?

Angeline: Yes.

Gabriel: Charmeine.. I love you..

Gabriel then kissed her and they both fell on her bed and continues kissing until they both felt hot and hard. They then continues to have sex. While having sex, Angeline realised something.

Angeline: Are we really sure about this? Isn't this wrong?

Gabriel: Why? You said you feel the same that you love me too, that you wish I was the one you married and not him.

Angeline: Yes, I said that and I do but I am already married, this is an affair and this is wrong. Remember the law?

Gabriel: I am sorry, I just couldn't help myself. I love you so much and I got excited when you said you feel the same, but is it really an affair if we both love each other? It may look like I am stealing you away or taking you away from him but it is your decision, it is your feeling as well. You already said you love me too and you have that feeling, even though you are married.

Angeline: But that is because I didn't know, I did not realise before but now I know.. I thought you're the one who would bring me harm and hurt me but I was wrong. Hold on, I remember that Uriel told me something before about changing who I want to marry, because divorce is not an option, since that is not a good thing but the reason why I got married to Uriel is because of the promise and contract we made that time before we became human, that as we got born in this world as human, we are married. So, if the contract is cancelled and goes back to being an angel, then that means me and Uriel are not married anymore, or the effect of the marriage is gone.

Gabriel: But then, how are we going to get married? Do we have to go back as human again?

Angeline: Aren't we angels and humans already? We got awakened as angels and our powers are back, and we are also living as human at the same time.

Gabriel: Do you still have the contract?

Angeline: No, we couldn't find it ever since the time when we got awakened as angels when me and Michael... wait! We got awakened as angels when I got together with Michael, but Michael is not Prince Michael. The contract went missing after. Could it be that the contract is gone because my marriage with Uriel is cancelled when I got together with Michael? I guess that is why we got awakened as angels because the contract is gone, it was cancelled.

Gabriel: That's a possibility. Maybe that is why our powers as angels were awakened that time, because the reason of you turning to human has been cancelled, you went with Michael and not Prince Michael. You're not married with Uriel!

Angeline: Yes! That also means that we can finally be together.

Gabriel: Charmeine, I love you so much.. I will not let you go anymore.

Angeline: I also won't leave you anymore, Gabriel. I don't want to be away from you anymore.

Gabriel: I'm so happy, I am finally together with you like this.

Angeline: Me too. I love you.
