I wake up with flower petals surrounding me. Rough night!
I get up and get in something pink and purple. I comb my hair back and add some flowers into my hair. I head over to the bathroom and brush my teeth while I just solemnly stare at my face. I have some large, and dark bags... is this a curse?!
I fly out and head over to the doctors. As soon as I get my appointment, I dash into the room. "So what's wrong?", the Elven doctor asks.
"I think I'm cursed, I have dark bags or circles under my eyes!", I state with worry.
"Sir, this is not a curse, this is just from lack of sleep, is there anything keeping you from sleeping?", the doctor asks.
"I accidentally inhaled a Hanahaki flower.. and have been coughing up petals for awhile..", I state.
"Sir?! You're just telling this now?! This is serious, you need to get surgery quick!", the doctor states.
"Wait! I don't want surgery yet, what will happen if I do get surgery?",I ask.
"Your petals get removed but with that, your emotions get removed and you'll never be able to love but if you don't get surgery you'll die with the flowers blocking up your lungs.", the doctor responds.
My eyes widen in fear,"is there another way?".
"Indeed there is, if your love interest confesses their feelings for you, you're safe."
"If they don't have any feelings for me..?", I ask curiously.
"Your feelings vanish for them.", the doctor states,"you started a while ago, so you probably have 3 years left to live as your an angel, your lungs are stronger than humans.
So I have three years to live, it's not like Lillian will never come back.. right?
RIGHT? Ok, calm down Lillian. I felt a breeze tickle the back of my ears. Calm vibes.. calm down..
I dashed out of the doctors and just layed on a rock. That's it! I'm going to go look for Lillian! No matter how long it takes, I will find him! I don't even know where the Quelaric kingdom is..
Then we'll find out! Guess we'll travel around the world until we find Quelaric!
I grab a cloak from one of the midnight elves and put it on. I get my backpack and add some snacks and drinks for the journey. Maybe even a journal. I fly over to the gate with the backpack on my back.
So, how will I get through the gate?
I look around and spot a crack in some bricks. I squeeze in with my wings a mess. Ouch, scratched my wings a bit. I don't think I'll be able to fly. Guess I'll be walking.
After approximately an hour of walking, I arrive in a village. Before I go in, I hide my wings with my cloak.

It was a beautiful town, the air was crisp and smelled of bread and cakes. I skipped along the road and went into a nearby inn.
"I'd like to stay here for a night.", I say.
After that, I went into the town to buy some food. I had just realised, I don't have any money. Maybe I'll be able to work somewhere. Wait, what's this town in anyway. I go to ask a little 10 year old boy," where is this town in?".
"Laithea!", the boy says.
"Oh, I've heard that you guys have amazing bread!", I say back and then skip on my way to the bakery.
I step inside the bakery and my nose was having a blissful moment. The bread had smelled so warm and fresh and the cakes were creamy and mouth watering.
I see a girl with brown hair and lighter streaks tied up in a ponytail with a blue bow.
"Hello? Are you the wonderful baker of this town?", I ask her.
"No kind sir, I'm actually the baker's daughter, my father is sick right now so I'm filling in.", she says.
"Well may your father be well soon, also can I have one of those creamy cake things?", I ask.
"Creamy cake things? You mean a custard cake?", She asks.
"Yeah! That one!", I gleefully say.
"That'll be 2 shillings.", she says.
"I don't have any money on me..", I say.
"Oh that's fine, this is your first visit, have your first visit for free!", she passes it over.
I dig into the creamy cake thing and get hot custard all on my face. She hands me a napkin and I clean myself before anyone else sees.
"You seem like a traveller, since you don't have any money, why not work here for a few weeks?", she asks.
"Yes! Perfect!", I say.
I should get some money with me first and then I'll look for Lillian.
I randomly choke 2 petals out of my throat.
"Woah, sir are you okay?", she kindly asks.
"Yeah.. I'm okay, shouldn't we get to know each other since we work on the same job now? I'm Aeolus, nice to meet you.", I say.
"What a weird and unique name, I'm Catherine, nice to meet you too Aeolus!", she gleefully says.
"So what are my working hours?", I ask.
"Morning to afternoon", she says.
"Oh ok!", I say," it's starting to get dark, I better get going to the inn, see you tomorrow Catherine!".
I head to the inn and I crash down on the pavement while a kid tackled me.
"Hey what did you do that for!", I shout.
"Give me all your money!", the kid says.
"No, why should I?", I say.
The kid looked hungry and skinny. His face was pale and the skin wrapped tightly around his bones.
"I'm sorry kid, but I don't have money right now.", I say as I walk back to the inn.
I went up to my room and collapsed on my bed, the soft bedsheets were so relaxing...
I woke up with the sun shining on my face, guess it's going to be a good day. I walked into the bathroom and washed my face and brushed my teeth. Then, I changed into some clothing and headed out. Nearly forgot, my cloak! As I stepped out of the inn, I made my way to the market.
"Selling jackets for something valuable!", an old man shouted.
"I say you should get that jacket, it's much more better than wearing that stupid cloak you always wear.", Catherine comes up from behind me and scares me.
I head over the old man with confidence.
"Young boy, what goods are you willing to trade for a jacket, it's made from the same fabric that royalty wear I assure you.", the man's eyes widen as I take something out of my pocket.
"B-but, these flutes haven't been seen for centuries!", he gasps.
"Yes, it's a flute that fauns use", I state.
"How did you get this young boy?", he exclaims.
"I have my secrets", I giggle,"now can I choose a jacket?".
"Y-yeah, you can pick 3 of your liking.", the man says.
"Awesome!", I shout with glee.
I choose a purple, black and blue one.
I look over and see Catherine trading with a merchant.
"So what did you buy", I ask.
"It's a wedding ring,", she says smiling.
"Who's the lucky one?", I ask.
"A girl named Amelia, she's the princess of this kingdom", she states.
"Woah! You're asking a princess out! I wish I had that confidence to even be near royalty!", I say with amazement.
"I'm hoping to ask her when she comes back to the kingdom.", she states.
"And when will that be?", I ask with curiosity in my veins.
"I don't know..", she says with a frown.
"Well I know that we should get a treat! Let's head over to a clothing store!", I grab her wrist and pull her to the nearby clothing store.

As we got out of the store we overheard some guards talking," Are you going to be going to Princess Amelia's and Caspian's wedding in Quelaric?".
"Yeah maybe", another guard said.
I had watched Catherine's eyes bleed with tears. She had covered her mouth so that no one could hear her. I took her into a hug and let her cry on me. "I know that Amelia wouldn't want this marriage anyway.. she isn't into boys.. right?!", Catherine cries.
"Right!", I say confused.
"Well I'm trying to look for my friend Lillian and maybe you can come on the journey with me!", I say offering a hand.
