“You were meant for greater things; you are unique and very, very special.”337Please respect copyright.PENANAmj0qyahd6Y
And then something weird happened. I noticed a little drop coming out of my left337Please respect copyright.PENANAiuoNRMMB6g
eye. I felt it slide down my face without purpose, like some lost freshet unable to find337Please respect copyright.PENANAvwqtqGq7sy
its destination “You understand?” he grabbed my shoulders “Do you?” He shook them337Please respect copyright.PENANA0QjA7jC6En
just carefully enough “And to be special, to be unique is...”337Please respect copyright.PENANATcl7eOYxwS
“Is to be alone?” I could not help but sob.337Please respect copyright.PENANApcdS4IHotj
“Oh, come now,” He placed one of his old trembling hands on my forehead,337Please respect copyright.PENANA7xj2hcSDpX
“You are just going through, shall we say, a tumbling of emotions; something337Please respect copyright.PENANAmMaTfUnpwd
completely natural for a young born such as yourself.” He smiled straight at me,337Please respect copyright.PENANAE1huXycWWV
it gave me comfort “But I can guarantee you that in just a few hours from now, none337Please respect copyright.PENANAxFIivw4Zvd
of these things will have any effect on you. None of these rumbling emotions that may337Please respect copyright.PENANAVseN2ylW0C
now be tearing at you from the inside will carry any weight. Give it a bit of time and337Please respect copyright.PENANAHmzSIN1oLW
you will easily evolve beyond that, hold on for just a while - can you do that for me?”337Please respect copyright.PENANAqO70DDADfr
I did not find the need to throw a single word at him, I knew he had seen right337Please respect copyright.PENANAtPnHDZ8l3Z
through me and my big wet eyes, the moment I sobbed for the second time.337Please respect copyright.PENANAY2seDhVS9U
“I am telling you, just give time the chance to work its magic for it alone can make all337Please respect copyright.PENANAOm4Gm4J5DN
things easier.” He slowly stood up.337Please respect copyright.PENANAxFZSrNNp2c
“You know, the passing of time will undoubtedly grant you many gifts my dear, great337Please respect copyright.PENANAhb7VLUnpZk
knowledge and even greater power, of that I am sure. But no gift will ever be bigger337Please respect copyright.PENANANORdmsB0i6
than experience and the calluses that this one will grow around your heart and your337Please respect copyright.PENANANOVr8s182I
mind. They will remain there to try and protect you and ensure that you always make337Please respect copyright.PENANAF5ggw6KUCV
the right call.” He threw another quick glimpse outside that room “Why, I am certain337Please respect copyright.PENANAzDuri52eK2
that when the time comes for us to say goodbye to one another, you will not even shed337Please respect copyright.PENANAeByfpeIvvV
a tear.” He turned to me again just in time to catch another of those eye drops with his337Please respect copyright.PENANAFlmWvAH4y2
trembling index finger: “You will be far too evolved to care for such things. So instead,337Please respect copyright.PENANAscfMgVW8D2
I think I will hold on to this one.”337Please respect copyright.PENANAWuRcPwpX4n
“I hope that is not true.” I looked away because at that moment I simply could not337Please respect copyright.PENANAXhDiyw6WkO
look at him, my chest was hurting so much. Instead, I took one last look around that337Please respect copyright.PENANAUmo9ek3u1z
room for something was telling me that I would not see it again; and even though337Please respect copyright.PENANA4AUNq1dqM0
those painful memories were still piercing me every time my eyes noticed something337Please respect copyright.PENANAJ53hsgoIkG
new, they still couldn’t hurt me anywhere near as much. It would take me a while.337Please respect copyright.PENANAAlLvOUnHy1
“You ready?” But that was time we did not have.337Please respect copyright.PENANA3wq3qiqKxJ
“If the time ever comes for us to depart, I will shed many more of those for you,337Please respect copyright.PENANAT8eWEooKmW
Father.” He looked somewhat puzzled at me, and I felt my cheeks burn more than ever337Please respect copyright.PENANAG3NjFhlfm5
before. “You were the one that woke me, were you not?” I asked after patting my cheeks337Please respect copyright.PENANADVpYy0xzEe
a few repeated times, desperately trying to cool them, or at least erase that pinkish hue337Please respect copyright.PENANArPXkZsChEI
I was sure to be colouring them. “The one that brought me into this conscious state?”337Please respect copyright.PENANA2PSsVBqjZA
I took it gently for I felt nervous treading through such words “It seems then to me337Please respect copyright.PENANAjBp19QjK3k
that the term fits quite appropriately. Or does it bother you?”337Please respect copyright.PENANARBz6xgAWwz
“No.” He said before focusing his eyes again on what was going on outside;337Please respect copyright.PENANAsFXprLXFly
“No, it doesn’t bother me.” and then he held my hand “I just have not been called that337Please respect copyright.PENANAOZVY33RDLm
in a very long time.”337Please respect copyright.PENANAB0Aba69lZj
“I promise I will try not to wear it down.” I smiled immediately after and he did too.337Please respect copyright.PENANAqeaFJj5bnR
That moment however, was not allowed to last as the increasing happenings on the337Please respect copyright.PENANAbtL7F9xWD0
outside magnified his haste, and by proxy, mine.337Please respect copyright.PENANAibtIYwnJva
“We need to wait for just the right time,” he grumbled.337Please respect copyright.PENANAxa8MtTuC8W
“Maybe... maybe...” I repeated a few times.337Please respect copyright.PENANAf22JMt23zs
“Huh?” he asked before immediately realising... “Oh!”337Please respect copyright.PENANAG1IpX61pje
“Maybe...” my eyes were still glued to that sign, previously some luteous gibberish337Please respect copyright.PENANAoH8Ae8iU2n
but now something more, words without sound that I could understand, read...
