“ For all this to be possible, all you've got to do now is run, just turn around from the distance we've come and run, you'll see yourself getting the same opportunity to try again.....” Chronos said, eyes full of trust as he speaks, he trusted that I can do this, he believes that I can do it, but he's just afraid of what's on the line, his existence. “ What would happen if I run?..... Am I to run back into my body and continue being as weak as I am down there or would I be able to heal immediately and escape from that position with the help of the stopped time?.....” I asked, wanting to brace up for what's to come, just gotta be prepared for it, maybe would just escape from the leader, the same way I got up and walked away from the museum guards. “ Just do like you're asked, whatever you see is what you're meant to, I can't predict what I don't know.....” He said, never taking his eyes off me, like he was staring at his wellbeing out of his control, he's possibly seeing the last of himself in me, not wanting to see me die. I never really understood the weight of his words at first until he shouted at me, he scolded me, he believes that he'll have to do that, that's why he even intervened in the time of my doom, just to let me know what he's about to do before he does it. In his eyes, all I can see is the look of proudness, a father looking up to his son with pride and joy, he wanted me to survive, he doesn't want to ruin me, but just like he told me before, he's here to teach me, all I've to do is remain focused and open minded as the lessons go on, that way I could get to understand other mysteries which I never know. As I turned around to take off, I heard him speak behind me, “ You can do this Wilfred, I believe you can.....” those words were encouraging enough, I can do with me with those words of trust, all that's needed is his support and he just gave it to me now. Had he not come, what would my life had been, I would be dead because the gang leader has already wished me farewell, he was now on the verge of blowing my head off before Chronos intervention, all I can say is that I am proud of him, he's giving me a reason to believe in trust, he has decided to go into if things go wrong, but if he'll have to trust me to that point to make sure that I don't die, then can any love be compared to the one he has for me?, There's no sort of comparison to the love where he has decided to give his existence away just to save me from death, a mere mortal like me, having a gods immortality placed in the midst of chaos just so I can escape death. Immediately I took of, it was all blurry by the side, like I do was running in between the space of time, nothing can be made out from my side because it felt like I was too fast, like I was running in the speed of light, that when I saw myself flying to the air and landing on the floor with my back, staring up at a familiar view. This is the back of our couch, I stared up the ceiling to realize that I was back at home, fuck!.... How did I collided with our couch, maybe because of the speed. My knee hurts from the collision, my left knee, but I think I can use it for the meantime. Fuck!..... My eyes traveled to the wall clock and I realized what it was, all this were just some minutes back before they arrived into my home, I've to act fast. I ran into the room, picked out the blueprint from its hidden spot as I made my way to leave the house. I don't know which side they came from before, how am I sure that I wouldn't be running in into them this time, guess I have to plan again. Maybe I should just find a hiding spot, somewhere they couldn't see me, try to stall and plan all this better. I just crossed over the road to the next building which was opposite ours, If I get to hide better, then I can get a good view from here, I just have to make sure that I wouldn't be seen until they're all in into our home. Never took three minutes from where I was hiding before I saw them arrive again, they just stormed out of the car like they already planned their moves, the driver was inside the vehicle as the other guy stood outside the car, the two bikers have already packed their bikes as they followed with the others to proceed into my home, the lady standing in front like the last time from how I can remember it. She knocked on the door, placing her ear on the door, that's possibly how they knew that I was in, watching her pull out her gun and holding it by the side. She knocked again as they waited, from this part I never knew what happened because I had opened up the last time on the first knock on the door, I watched her knock again before she turned around, waving her head in signal, the guy who was relaxing on the car immediately headed to our door and started playing on something, I guess it's about time I go look for my mum's whereabouts, if I can find her before she gets here, then I can possibly protect her, as well successfully take this blueprint back to the museum, that would be killing two birds with a stone, guess it's about time I pull this off.
