ILUMINA (POV)
When I waved my hand, we disappeared from the tower, where I grew up.
"I promise mother when I come back, I won't take revenge on what I brought, I promise I'll take him here, I'll take my older brother with me when I come back." I whispered in my mind.
I will not disappoint you my loving mother, I will not disappoint you.
I just felt our feet land on the grass.
How many years ago did I get down here? The one I remember is, that I was still with my mother during those times.
"Ilumina what the problem?" Concerned Clover's human form asked me, I smiled at him and hugged him.
"Let's go." I said and giggled
The goddess of heaven is right, revenge will be the way to evil, so when I think that, I don't have to take revenge, I will just let heaven judge their sins.
I stopped my walk first and looked at the tower that witnessed my past.
"Goodbye my tower." I whispered softly as I looked at it, I slowly turned my back on it and we continued our walk.
"Clover, do the natives have their own language?" I asked my friend who is now in human form.
"Yes they have another word." He answered so I stopped walking first and faced him.
"Really? What's that?" My childish question.
"The name of that word is Filipino language." He answered me and I raised my eyebrows at what I heard.
Filipino? Is that food?
"The Filipino is a food, Clover?" I asked him again but Clover's face suddenly turned red until he was laughing out loud like crazy. He almost cried with laughter and then here I am, amazed at him.
What's in this one? And what's in Filipino why does Clover laugh? My next question.
"Are you okay Clover." When I said that, his previous posture returned and he pretended to be coughing.
"The Filipino I'm referring is not a kind of food, because Filipino is a kind of word used by poor creatures or Nobles." He further explained.
Ah! that's why he looks like he's going to die, it was funny earlier. Because he thought I was a creature who had lost my sanity.
I just stared at him and quickly walked away from him.
"Hey! GBF wait!" He shouted from behind me, I suddenly stopped and faced him.
"Are you using Filipino words at me Clover? What does that mean ....? The gb--- just what you just said?!" I was rude to him, but I could see the strange grin on his face.
"Mahal kita Ilumina" He said seriously to me so my forehead furrowed even more at what I heard.
What?
"What are you saying Clover? Can you not use me in that Filipino thing." I scolded him angrily but the madman just grinned and quickly approached my seat and put his arm around me.
"When I say Mahal kita, say back Mahal din kita." He said so my forehead furrowed even more.
Huh? Mahal din kita? What does that word mean?
"What is the meaning of Mahal din kita?" Like a child, I asked him, it smiled at me and spoke.
"Call that friend, so when I say Mahal kita, you'll answer me back mahal din kita. Is it clear GBF?" He explained that, thought he was an arrogant person.
I just nodded at what he said.
"Mahal kita, Ilumina." I heard him say so even though I was hesitant, I just answered back.
"M..mahal d..din kita, Clover." I answered him, I could see the radiance in his eyes and drawing a sweet smile on it.
"Let's go." he nursed me and held my hand and we walked together in the dark forest.
"Do you know where we're going, Ilumina?" Clover asked me, I nodded to him before answering.
"Not either." I answered him with a loud laugh, it's funny. Because his face was priceless.
"Oh what's funny?" He asked me, I exhausted my laughter first before I answered him.
"It's just a joke, the truth is that the goddess of the sky told me that she was going to send a butterfly for us to follow. But I don't know where the bu--" I didn't finish what I was going to say when suddenly someone appeared in front of us a white beautiful butterfly.
"Nice." I sighed in amazement as I stared at the white butterfly in front of us.
"You're better than that butterfly." Clover whispered so I turned my attention to it.
"Are you saying something Clover?" I asked in surprise and he just avoided looking at me.
"No, I said nice butterfly." He answered, so I just nodded to him and turned my attention back to the butterfly in front of us.
"Our butterfly friend, I want you to show us the right way." I was happy to talk to the butterfly.
It circled around me as if indicating that I should follow her so I slowly stepped forward and followed the white butterfly.
I felt Clover's warm palm again on our holding hands. I looked at him and smiled at it so he smiled back too.
All my life now, I have only felt to be free and happy. Because all my life, I have imprisoned myself with evil intentions.
Thanks to the goddess of heaven for her sermon, my closed mind reopened.
And now I will travel with my friend to re-bouin the gradually deteriorating world of magic.
I closed my eyes and uttered a prayer to the goddess of the sky.
"My goddess of the sky, thank you for the little friend you sent for us, I hope you will be with us on our journey." And I slowly opened my eyes and continued our walk.
"Ilumina." Clover called my name so I looked at him when I asked why.
"Uhm do you know who's destined on you?" He asked me very seriously, I smiled at him sweetly, before answering.
"Not yet, but the goddess of the sky says, it's close." I told him a happy story here and turned my attention back to him. I saw the pain and bitterness in his eyes but it was immediately replaced by a happy aura.
"That's exciting." He said and laughed, I don't know if it's just a illusion in my eyes or just delusional, but it's like I saw the pain in his eyes and I also felt the bitterness in his voice while saying those things.
Does Clover have a problem?
