Lily was still admiring the girls beauty and then thought, this girl must have been beautiful whilst on earth.
Keva wasn't from earth.
As if keva heard her, "you too are beautiful".
Lily replied saying, "Noo....," with a small chuckle.
Keva turned around and said to her,
"you really don't know how beautiful you are".
When they approached a glass mirror, keva turned back facing Lily and held her shoulders rotating her to face the mirror. Lily who was in shock widened her mouth, "oh my gosh!...."
Truly she was not as beautiful as she was on Earth, she had blasted even more in beauty.
Keva said to her, "you must have an Elysian beauty"
Elysian was the home of the Celestials, "You must have received beauty as a gift when coming".
"You must have received one too when coming...." said Lily.
keva just smiled at her. "I was created".
"What?...," lily asked with a surprised expression.
"Nothing..." she replied. "What is your name?.."
"Oh it's Lily...," keva just stared at her.
"Sorry, it's Zillah".
An okay expression was seen on keva's face as if she now understands.
"Why the first expression". lily asked.
" it's just that here our names have meaning to it".
"Really, so your name,..."
"it means gentle, precious and beautiful".
"Wow, I sure can see the beauty...."
lily said. They both laughed.
"So about the gift thing".... she wanted to know more.
"Okay...." she explained,
" it's something that you are given on your way here you never know what you get until your arrival where you are being told. Didn't omna tell you?..."
"No...." he didn't she replied. "Maybe he has his reasons"...
"So my name zillah, yeah,..what does that mean"....
She asked her, curiously.
"Zillah, I'm not so sure but if I'm to guess what Zillah means, I really can't guess it, Omna told you your name right?...."
"Yes..."she nodded. "Okay then he must know the meaning,
Let's get you to your room".
"mmh", Zillah hummed in response, "let's go".
Zillah got to her room,
"wow!.., she exclaimed".
Her medium sized bed, with rolling chair, more of earthly like things here. But one could survive without eating.
Zillah thought to actually stick to keva for as long as she is here and maybe omna too especially because he needs to answer her questions.
It was the next day,
She woke up late because she just love the feeling, only for to open her eyes and see that she wasn't alive on earth but here.
She whined a little then stood up from the bed, going into the bathroom to take a nice warm bath.
It was no difference from that of the things she did on Earth but they were major differences.
When she was done, keva was waiting patiently, it was a good thing she was already dressed up. The cloth fitted her perfectly, above her knees. it was like they had been waiting for her arrival.
When she had opened the door, keva was directly in front of her with a warm smile, she said, "hi!..please come with me"...
Zillah followed afterward and they got to a large hall where sittings filled the room. Zillah was amazed with what she saw, she just loved this place for everything they had.
Suddenly a girl about her age and size popped up in her eyeballs which made her to make a light scream. "Hey, you...are you new here?..." asked the girl.
"Yes I am..." replied Zillah.
"Wow, you're beautiful".
the girl complemented.
Zillah rushed to respond "you too...,"
she didn't like it when people complemented her and she doesn't reciprocate the complement. This action of hers made keva laugh knowing that she did the exact same thing to her when she had complemented her yesterday.
"What's your name?..." the girl asked with her eyes stuck on her.
" it's Zillah and you..."
" My name is Cristal, and my friend keva".... she responded as if owning her.
Zillah from what she had learnt yesterday wants to know the meaning of her name, her name was the only name that sounded familiar to her since she got here.
"So your name, what does that mean?..."
"Oh, you know about that...," she asked.
Zillah only responded with a nod. "It means pure hearted, I have a pure heart".
This made Zillah see the resemblance between her character and her name.
She really was a free person, as if you can read through her easily but you cannot and this makes it harder for anyone to know when she's in sorrow, but this isn't hard at all for keva, which is why she loves keva very much.
"And you what's the meaning of your name..."
cristal asked
" I..."
"It means shadow...,"
"Shadow".... the three of them repeated.
"Yes..." Omna replied, he had just arrived at the hall. "Greetings Zillah".
She loves the way omna greets her, but she feels uncomfortable because he is a few years older than her which means she is supposed to greet him first.
Keva was surprised at the way omna greeted her, it was the first time that she had seen omna greet anyone because he is the Celestials guardian, why would he greet anyone.
Zillah didn't know how to respond, so she just smiled back which made omna give her a smile as a response.
Keva cut the silence saying "shadow, what does that mean?,"
Omna then replied her,
" I obey orders I do as I'm told to, nothing more nothing less,".....that was a befitting reply thought Zillah.
"What's her mission?...." asked cristal.
"Mission!..." Zillah repeated.
"Yeah, most especially if you come from Earth you have a mission you're assigned to".
This confused her even more. I'm on a mission after death, what is going on?.
"Come to me Zillah...,"
she walked past cristal and keva to where omna was seated when he arrived.
"I will speak to you and you will listen..."Zillah just nodded in response.
"You...."
"Incoming sir,"
