Chapter 11 - Stupid idea

( Please remember that we are in Elijah's POV)

We may fall in love several times in a lifetime, but there's only one true love that will be different from the others

You know that this kind of love will accompany you till the rest of your life

You will always try to keep this kind of love and the person that made you feel it, even though sometimes it's toxic.

And if it didn't work, you will spend the rest of your days trying to find it in other persons

That kind of love that we can not fell twice, with other persons, was the kind of love I felt toward Galatea.

I was thinking a lot about what made her take this decision despite knowing that she may or may not get over it

When I knew about Daphnia, I immediately set out to see her and ask her the questions

Nephustus gave me an enchanted sword and an unbreakable shield so I could defend myself in this world that clearly I don't belong to

When I arrived at the lake where remained the nymph, she appeared in front of me like she knew that I was coming and was waiting for my arrival

Daphnia:" So you are the famous human that made our little goddess walk through the door."

I was shocked by what I have heard, it was because of me that she did it

And I, meanwhile, was thinking that she didn't want me anymore!

Regrets and remorses invaded me, at that moment it was like the whole world stopped working

With a trembling voice I asked Daphnia:" Why did she cross that damn door?"

She replied:" She wanted to be a human like you so you could finally be alike and then there will be no obstacles in your way to live your lives together"

My soul suffered hearing her words, my breath became heavier and my heart was broken

I asked her where I could find that door, at first she didn't want to tell me

She said that it was too risky for a human because I was powerless

That the challenges and the dangers where too dangerous that I don't have any chance of survival

But when she saw my perseverance and my love for Galatea she gave me all the information I need to know and gave me some advices about my opponents like their weak points and how to get them to help me

I thanked her and my adventure began

Standing in front of that door I hesitate a little, I remembered my family, friends and life all at once

I was afraid I would never be able to talk to them or see them

But then I remembered my Galatea, who was in front of this door, certainly thinking about all of that but didn't prevented her from doing it

So I opened the door and crossed it

Maybe it was a stupid idea!

I had nothing to defend myself with beside what Nephustus gave me..

Galatea was a strong goddess with unlimited power and maybe she could have survived it, will I?

But if Galatea's sacrifice taught me one thing, it is that when you find your soul mate you should do whatever it takes to keep him by your side

I didn't know what awaited me, or what bad surprises I was going to face but it didn't matter because all I thought about was seeing her face and hugging her again!

And maybe one day, we will meet again...
