Bella was fifteen years old when Ankira decided to leave the human land. She just couldn't find peace with anything even the man she loved wholeheartedly hurt her except for Bella who gave her hope. But that wasn't enough for Ankira, she knew deep down that there was somewhere she could find peace but didn't know where. Ankira decided to embark on a journey leaving both Bella and Alex but gave the whole responsibility to Bella. Alex developed a hatred for his daughter from that instant because he thought he deserve that position better than Bella. He called Bella an immature lady who should only focus on kitchen duties and how to satisfy a man. Ankira left thinking all was going to be fine.
Hmm...... Hmm. Kira cleared her throat.
"I think you should be on your way master, you are been called."
"What do you mean? I don't want to go now and besides no one is calling me cause I can't hear anything. I won't go until you finish the rest of the story so continue.
"Hmm, I think that is a bad idea master. I suggest you leave now or else you might be buried even before you are dead."
.........................................................................
Bella! Bella! Bella!. Mrs. Smith called out repeatedly.
Bella wake up. Mrs. Smith said tapping her face. "I need to call Nan, what the hell did she eat or drink that has made her fall into a deep slumber?
Beep... Beep. Mrs Smith called Nancy.
"Nan. You need to get here this instant Dolly isn't waking up."
Nancy: What! Dolly isn't waking up? Am on my way mom. I'll be on my way.
Ok.
Call ended.
Beep... Beep. Mrs. Smith dialed the doctor's phone number.
"Oh! My Goodness the doctor's number isn't going through. I wonder what I'll do.
Beep... Beep. Mrs. Smith dialed the medics' number again but the same thing.
I will take her to the hospital.
"Mom, what's wrong with Dolly hasn't she woken up yet?." Nancy badged into the room inspecting Bella's body.
"Mom, she is breathing. But the is not waking up I think we need to go to the clinic.
...........................................................
Ok... Ok fine I'll leave, but promise to continue the story once I come back.
"I promise, so now you need to leave. Go go go.." Kira said as she bellowed herself for Bella to hop on. I'll take you to where the boat stopped. Then you will call the boat back. Kira said as she flew faster.
But how will I summon the boat back? Am not a gatekeeper so I can't summon the boat back. Am sure that the boat has probably disappeared the same way it appeared. Bella said.
"That's why am telling you to summon the boat."
"Ok, so what do I say to summon the boat?"
"You will just close your eyes, clear your mind and imagine the boat. Make sure you see the boat clearly then you will say " Come to me." As simple as that.
"Ok... But won't you come with me?"
"No, I can't master. Not yet."
"Is it related to history stuff?" Bella said in anticipation of an answer.
"Yes so now do as have said."
Ok.
"I closed my eyes and imagined the boat as Kira had said and said the words but nothing happened."
"Try again you can do this, just clear your mind in determination to go home."
I hear Kira giving me words of encouragement. And closed my eyes and said the word. I heard the bubbling of water which made me open my eyes. I saw some water bubbling. At first, it was slow and suddenly became faster and faster and stopped. I looked at Kira defeated and sighed. Suddenly something flew out of the water with force and landed back on the water making it splash on my face. I turned to face the water and saw a mighty and more beautiful boat than the first one.
"Yeah yeah I did it," Bella said jumping up and down like a baby.
Kira kook I did it. Bella said pointing at the water and cheering for herself.
"Alright now. You need to leave now! Go."Kira said.
Ok ...ok. But seriously I think you are starting to boss me around. I mean I am the boss ok, so you need to follow my order, not the other way around.
"Ok master so what do you want me to do?" Kira asked.
"Just stay there and watch me go."
"I don't plan on leaving without making sure you have gone back."
"So you don't trust me or what?" Am not a baby who will go back to take a candy after being told not to." Bella said pouting her lips.
"Go before you get buried alive 'cause I won't do anything about it other than mourn my master's death."
"You are so wicked," Bella said before entering the boat.
"Bye... We see when we see." Bella said.
"Please don't come too early 'cause I need to rest my brains," Kira shouted as she watched the boat go out of scenery.
Haaaaaa........ Kira heaved a sigh of relief. "I hope she makes it safely without causing any trouble, I'll wait till she fully goes. The gatekeeper will...... "The Gate Keeper!." Kira exclaimed and flew after Bella. I just hope she doesn't bother the Gatekeeper or else she might not go through.
"Am glad have gotten to my destination now the only thing remaining is how to get the Gatekeeper's attention."
"You don't need to am already here." The Gatekeeper said from behind Bella startling her.
"Oh! My Goodness, Gatekeeper you startled me."
"Hmm..... The Gatekeeper cleared his throat raising his brows at what he just heard her call him.
"Did you just call me Gate Keeper? Hmmm... And who told you that I was the Gatekeeper?"
"Am sorry for the way I spoke to you the other time I really didn't mean to be rude I was just curious to know where and how I got here."
"Have you gotten your answers?" The Gatekeeper asked.
"Not yet, but very soon."
"Wow. I didn't see this coming, I guess she isn't as bad as I thought. We could both get along. Kira said from her hiding place.
