Chereads / An Angel, Maybe? / Chapter 5 - Feathers of White

Chapter 5 - Feathers of White

Hours pass and eventually so does the rain. My tears fade with the rain, just as he said. Thinking about all the events that lead up to this I can't help but smile. He did it. This angel has made me happy.

Once again, he holds his hand out to me, towering above me in the most angelic way. Without hesitation I take his hand, interlocking our fingers. I smile for what feels like for the first time in forever. "Thank you." It's all I can say.

He smiles, but this smile is sad. A single tear falls from his eye, shining like a diamond I wipe the tear away with my finger.

A burst of white feathers blocks my vision. When they finally clear the angel is gone. Without a trace of his existence the manor and all the servants disappear in the same fashion. My only surroundings are white feathers that bring a chill to my spine.

He left. My angel left. The sad feeling once again returns but leaves as quick as it came. Perhaps it was for the best. After all, maybe her really was an angel.
