I turned back to focus on the faces we were in talk of, he doesn't seem to be lying, they actually have no reason to want to beat me, I'm an employee here too, though I was at the wrong place at the wrong time, they shouldn't be treating me this way, they could just wait to hear my opinion first before handling things, and it was the same guy that had followed me, trying to go see what I was up to before all this happened. “ Now you're here and free, shouldn't you leave freely like you wanted, go on your path and I should go on mine..... I wouldn't tell people about your existence because they would never believe me anyway....” I'm possibly trying to ditch him, not that I am not thankful for what he's trying to do, having my back, but speaking of purity and comparing it to me is a no no, a no brainer, because I have only one mission in mind, and purity has nothing to do with it, more like they're opposite, evil and good. “ You know I'm inside your head right?.... I can hear all you've in mind, but I can't share the answer if you don't ask.....” Now this is getting interesting, “ You mean that I'll have no privacy because you're kind of, like you said, stuck with me?....” I demonstrated my words as I speak them, trying to find a reason to let him know that he's not welcomed, I don't want anyone getting in the way of my revenge. “ You see..... Your privacy has nothing to do with me, even your conscience judge you on some decisions you make, but you do whatever you want anyways, trying to convince your conscience, yourself that you made the right decision, let's view it that way.... I'm your conscience, but this time, you can see me in person, isn't that perfect?....” He asked, being all comfortable with this conversation, as if I wasn't trying to chase him away or something. He's just relaxed like all this was normal. I don't know the world he live in or come from, but this is not normal in this world, if that's what he thinks, this is not perfection, this is me being a freak. “ You see Wilfred, there's always something in between, a line that separates good and bad, night and day, true and false, advantage and disadvantage, come and go, today and tomorrow, future and past.....” He was just staring into my face as he said those words, all that I know, but what he said last, something was missing, something he never added, and if he's reading my mind now, he definitely should know that. “ You didn't mention present....” “ Yes.... Present is the line that I'm talking about, and of all the other examples I gave to you, both can't operate without the other, and you my friend won't survive this night without me..... All you've to do is accept me in, then you will see the goodness of having me around.....” He said, now stretching his hand forward, like all he needed to seal this companionship was a handshake. What am I going to do, isn't this exactly the same thing as shaking hands with the devil?, He doesn't want to speak about himself, but he does want to be accepted in into me. “ How am I sure you're not trying to trick me into stealing my body?....” He smiled gently, like he always have whenever I seem to make a huge point. “ I, stealing your body?..... That would sound fun, but can I?, No.... I don't exist, I am just like the air, an oxygen you breathe in and the carbon dioxide you breath out, I don't have a form in real life and can never create one, no one knows my appearance, but everyone knows my name, some think that I am an old man who have lived since forever, some think that I am a child, some think that I am a creature with a wall clock for a face, some even think that I'm the father of Zeus and the son of Uranus, some think that I'm bad, some think that I'm good, some use me without knowing me, some waste me without knowing me, many admits they're behind me, some thinks they're on me..... But the real truth is that I'm Chronos, the god of time....” If I say that I am not stunned, then I'm a liar, this feels so unreal, like I am standing in front of wisdom, yet pushing him away, but yet, many mistake a demon for an angel, I don't know what I am doing or how I am doing it, I am just lost in thought that I can't keep for myself because he's always knowing what's going up there, I can't find the word to say, but shaking this hand will be sealing something I'll enjoy or regret, one of them is sure, but is I worth it?, I don't know. “ Of What use will the god of time be for me?.....” “ Of knowledge.... You'll get to learn as far as I am living in you, I'll be your worse enemy, as well as your best friend, you'll hate me, and those hate will make you love me, you'll be stuck inside your head thinking but others will see you as a free bird, as a god in human nature..... I'm no devil for you to shake my hand, rathe I am an angel that will change your life either for the good or for the worse, but death wouldn't come to you today, because I am Chronos, the unknown.....” Is he making up lies?, I don't know, is he trying to play tricks on me?, I don't know, in this world, we've the saying, take the risk, and if I have the God of time in me, it means I'm time itself and can do whatever I want, whenever I want, I can even save my Mom by just going in time before it happens. I shook his hand.....Deal.
