-HIIIIIII (ʘᴗʘ✿)
god why did stay here...
- thanks a lot for waiting, my partner arrived a little bit earlier so we can leave now, come on, follow me, my house isn't far away.
-how are we getting there?
-what do you mean (~_~メ)
-i mean do you have a vehicle?
-oh.... no, I walk from my home (●´⌓`●)
-wonderful, how long do you usually take to reach here?
-liiiiike.... 5 mins? I think.
- well it's not that bad, let's go.
-sure thing captain! <(￣︶￣)>.
god.
-you know, I don't even know your name.
-oh, my name is Mildred nice to meet you. ( ╹▽╹ )
she extends her arm to me and her hand is open, she wants to shake hands.
-we've already met, there is no need for that.
- I was trying to start all over since the last time we interacted you didn't seem to like me (• ▽ •;)
- I don't, and I have reasons for it.
-and could those reasons be?
-the fact you even ask me about that...
-ooooh it's because of the dress right? you didn't like it?
-no... i-
- too bad, I really think you looked really beautiful on it (っ˘̩╭╮˘̩)っ.
-i mean no, it's not that, actually I like it, but it's just that I shouldn't have bought it, you made me spend money I didn't want to spend.
-oh really?, I'm sorry Ó╭╮Ò
*sighs* - anyway I liked it in the end, and I really needed something formal, if not now, someday, so at the end of the day it wasn't that bad.
- then why are you so mad at me? ( ;∀;)
- I really don't like being fooled like that.
- but-
- I don't even remember buying it in the first place, I just closed my eyes and suddenly I had the bag in my hands already paid!, how the hell did you even do that?.
- but I didn't do anything (╥﹏╥).
- that is not how time works, nor my brain, you did something to me.
- but I didn't!, not on purpose at least (･ัω･ั).
- wait, so you CAN do something
- kinda (• ▽ •;)
-that is what I was wandering about, that day I saw you going through a door and coming from others that weren't even connected, you clearly have powers!.
I point my finger at her.
-well... yes, but I don't remember having anything related to time ミ●﹏☉ミ. that Is why I'm telling you I don't remember doing anything to you, but I'm sorry if I did, I guess I discovered a new power!.
- most of the time people don't get "new" powers, so you most likely just discovered a new use for the one you already had, what can you do anyway?
-im not exactly sure, i THINK I can teleport but only with doors.
-that is oddly specific.
-well it's because more random things keep happening from time to time but nothing related to doors so I don't really think that is it.
-perhaps you have something more... "open"
-open?
- people get powers depending on what their soul gets the trait from when they're born, usually stuff like "the aspect of fire" or "the aspect of shadows" or stuff like that, but sometimes it ends up being something much more abstract and... "open".
-like?
-like the aspect of... I don't know, the aspect of "beauty"?
- that sounds pretty straightforward to me (￣ヘ￣;).
- it sounds at first but then the guy starts controlling every cute little bunny at a 4 km radius without knowing it and suddenly causes a city to almost get destroyed.
-wait that happened?!
- no, but could.
-oooow I was thinking you were for real.
- I mean , that person actually exists but the accident never happened, he really is the aspect of beauty, most of the time everyone thought he was just able to morph his beauty or make everyone that sees him suddenly think he is extremely beautiful, but turns out he had a more open interpretation for his powers, he can control anything who is considered beautiful by any other person, and by thing I really mean thing, objects, grass, paintings even, he could control everything.
-could?
-he died, got killed to be precise.
- but why?
- someone jealous of him, really hated the fact he was the center of attention and decided to shoot him one day when he was in a press conference.
-whaaaaaat?.
- I was on service when all that happened, I saw him coming thru the ICU.
-you were in a hospital?! (☉｡☉)!
- yeah I work.... worked at a hospital.
-YOU DID WHA- oh look, we're here (◍•ᴗ•◍).
an almost 15- floors building appears in front of me, an apartment building to be precise, with beautifully painted walls and crystalline windows, I can even see
-this is your... house?
- well I said house but I didn't tell you it was on the ground (*´∀｀).
-you should have, at least tell me this thing has an elevator.
-i doesn't (θ‿θ)
-...
well, I'm out of here.
-nonono wait come back(っ˘̩╭╮˘̩)っ.
she pulls my arm and I really don't want to turn around but the night is really boring and arguably I need exercise... what the hell just go with it Cecile.
- look, look, I can make this easier. watch.
she goes to the door that lets you inside the building and stands there for a moment, I can see her pouting even from behind while tensing her arms and closing her fists.
she then puts her hand in the knob and stops there, I wonder about the silence and when I get close enough I can start hearing her mumbling words.
-pleasepleasepleaseplease.
she says while holding tightly the knob.
after a moment she finally turns the knob and the the door finally opens completely I can see a living room on the other side of the door.
she takes some steps back without turning around, gazes at the door for a moment and then jumps on her place to then raise her fists to the sky.
-YEEEES!!!
-why are you so excited about that? I thought that was your power.
-it is, but usually it doesn't work when somebody is watching me, so I was really worried this wouldn't work ( ;∀;).
-so... you either managed to break your limits or your powers just work at random.
-yep, pretty much (• ▽ •;).
-fair enough.
she makes a gesture to invite me to go in, and I take it. I walk towards the door but I don't get inside, because now I realized who I am talking to.
-wait. this is YOUR house?
-... yes....?
-wonderful.
I walk inside, because to be honest I don't really care at this point.
-the room is decorated with fancy looking desks and chairs, the dinner table is one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen. looks like it came right from a fantasy Kingdom, the walls are all white with golden decorations on the walls, mostly flower shapes and vines near the roof area.
- I gotta say, whoever is the owner of this house has good taste.
-i am the owner of the house, I was actually messing with you before (>▽<)ﾉ.
-sure. so are you actually going to prepare tea?
- oh oh yeah, I was forgetting that, tee hee sorry.
she rushes to the kitchen, one that is also connected to the room of the dinner table without a door. I her her filling a kettle and then turning her stove on, an electric one also. I sit on the table, I rest my head in my hand, my elbow being my support.
-so, tell me about this "tea".
- oh, it is a mint tea, but the mint leaves come from my grandma, she sends me some every month, I don't know what she adds to them but they taste wonderful, and the tea really makes me feel happy and relaxed.
- is that so?.... huh.
- yes, they're wonderful! (>▽<)ﾉ.
I honestly think her hyperactivity and overwhelming happiness is not a sign of a well developed human brain, and I think that "tea" has something to do with it. I'd like to get some samples for later, for now, I can just waste time here.
-so, how did you even get all this stuff in your house?, everything here looks fancy and expensive.
-oh the guys in the clothing store gave me all of this.
-wait what?
-yes they gave it to me in exchange for me promising to never come back (• ▽ •;).
-th-.... geez what the hell did you even do there.
-they didn't tell me but apparently it had to do with a lot of money missing.
-just that?
- well also the fact that i kept coming back every time they wanted me to leave, but not because I wanted but because I kept teleporting back every time.
-why would you do that?
- I didn't want to! ヘ（.□°）ヘ I was nervous and my power kept activating again and again (´ . .̫ . `).
- hahahaha
-hey, that's mean (´;ω;)
- hahahaaa I'm sorry I'm sorry, but just imagining you coming from the other door every time they just throw you out seems really funny to me....
anyway, cookies.
- oh right, right, I forgot about that, just give me a second.
she goes running to the other room I hear her steps on the wooden floor all the way until she crosses the door frame, just after that the room goes silent and I'm sure she disappeared just like that.
how her powers work seem to be.... abnormal, even for abnormal standards, she doesn't seem to have a rule, her powers just... happen. figuring out what her aspect must be is quite difficult.
-I'M BACK (≧▽≦)!
she appears from behind me, scaring me and almost stopping my heart.
- I brought cookies, I hope you like them, they're my favorite!.
vanilla flavored cookies... fitting. I like them so I don't see a problem with having a few.
- you bought them, right?
- yep, you know, I told you I lost money, it's not like I steal or something (~_~;).
-fair enough, tea , by the way.
-oh right!
