>>Nena“Gurl, avoiding him won’t take you anywhere.” Nathan was giving me a lecture while I had my head down on the round table outside the canteen. It was like our spot where we discussed plans, “You’ve been avoiding him for two days now. The festival is in two weeks!”“My heart won’t let me see him.” I stared into space.“Oh God!” Nathan sighed, “Come on Nena!” He looked at the clock on his phone, “I have a class so I have to go.” Chris and Sam didn’t make it to our ‘get me and Quincy together’ discussion plan since they had consecutive classes, “Listen,” Nathan sat down next to me, “You want him to be yours right?”I nodded my head while my face was still on the table, “Yea…” I could feel the dust on the surface get smouldered on my cheek.“Then it’s not the time to mope.” He grabbed my ear, “This happens every now and then, he has to feed, he’s a vampire,” He got me to sit up.“Ow!” I slapped away his hand, “He’s a half!” I gritted my teeth, “He’s half Fae,” I glared at him, “A ra
>>Nena“Quincy~” I popped my head in his office, “Your coffee.” I gave it to him while he was taking some notes on his notepad.“Thanks.” He took a sip from it immediately and smiled, “I just love the taste of this coffee.” He gave me a glance, “This is what I like.” He smiled at me and my heart skipped a beat, “You being friendly and not ignoring me.”“Hehe,” I felt a little flustered, “And me too, right?” I looked at him with glistening eyes.He chuckled, “If that’s what makes you happy.”“Hey! You have to say it!” I pouted.“Yes, I like you too.”I smiled brightly, “I know,” I chuckled, “I am the best after all.”He just chuckled in return and kept doing his words.“I’m leaving for college.” I told him as I walked towards the door.“Is your friend picking you up again?” He asked as his eyes shifted onto the laptop screen.“Yes,”“Alright.”There was no other reaction from him. Rather, he seemed too busy to even give me one.***In today’s meeting session, Nathan was absent because
>>NenaNo matter how much I wanted to deny it, it all came right in front of me like a hard slap to my face.Sam and Chris were right.Nothing had worked.Absolutely nothing has changed. Except the fact that, now I feel like I’m not even worth what I thought I was before.I’m just a human.Someone who was there for a fleeting period in his life. Will I even be remembered after a few years?I heard Quincy’s door get shut and I knew she and him were together in his office now.My heart broke. It felt like a glass that fell on the hard concrete floor and shattered into tiny uncountable pieces.I looked down in misery and began to slowly walk towards the room.My thoughts felt like they were jumbling up and it felt suffocating. I didn’t want to be in the same space as her.Why did she appear now?I feel so bad and stupid!I walked into the corridor and stood in front of Quincy’s office. I heard them talking but couldn’t hear.Shit!I bit my lips and ran out to the open corridor, to the b
>>NenaI took a deep breath, then looked up and through the thick trees, I could barely see the sky.A sky full of stars.Wait- full of stars?I stood up.The trees are really thick too and the air is so crisp! Plus there is absolutely no sound of anything artificial.My eyes went wide as I realized where I might be!Just then the sound of a bird caught my attention and I looked in the direction of the sound where I saw a big white raven making its way towards me.My heart began to pound as I had an idea who that might be.The raven dove closer to the ground and as it was about to reach me it shape-shifted.The smaller body transformed into that of a tall sturdy man.A beautiful man with pale skin, silverish white hair and emerald green eyes.His fantasy style clothes made my jaw drop, his hair was a bit longer than the last time I had seen him but he was as youthful as ever.He approached me quietly with a serious expression but I couldn’t contain my joy when I saw him, “Yohan!?” I e
>>NenaTears fell down my cheeks, “Why are you yelling at me!”“I-” He raised his hands up slightly, “I didn’t mean to do that.” He seemed a little disturbed.“Why are you angry at me?” I glared at him.“You ran away!” He said, “Do you know how worried I was?”I ran away? The fuk? I only went out for a walk!“So what!?” I took a step back, “You were so busy with your lover, you didn’t care.”“Nena!” He raised his voice again, “She’s a guest.”“Oh? So that shameless bitch hasn’t left yet.”“Nena! She was the one who told me to check on you since she thought you were acting weird.”I scoffed, “You must trust her a lot.” I folded my arms, “She’s the one who followed me out when I went out for a WALK and tried to kill me.” I kept glaring at him.“What?”“Why do you think the Dryad let me in? It doesn’t let normal humans in!” I took another step back, “Do you have any idea how scared I was when I thought I was going to die!?”“Nena…” He shook his head, “I’m sure this is a misunderstanding
>>Nena“What the hell is wrong with you!” Sam bandaged my hand while constantly running his mouth, “What if something happened!” We both sat in his room in his big ass house.“Well, nothing happened!” The door opened while we both were arguing.“Nena,” I heard Chris come in and turned to look at him. He placed his bike helmet on the table as he walked in, “I heard what you did.” He came and sat down next to us, “That was dangerous.”“I’m alright though-” The door burst open and Nathan came running in.“Nena! I heard you pulled a stupid stunt!!” Nathan yelled and I silently looked at Sam to judge him.“What?” He finished bandaging me, “I had to tell them.” He looked away, “We’re in this together.”“Are you alright though?” Nathan came stomping towards me and it looked like he was about to give me a hug.“Hey!” Chris and Sam both stopped him, “You can’t be near her yet!”“Ah!” Nathan paused, “Right…” He sat the furthest from me and sighed, “But why did you do it?”All three of them sta
>>NenaAfter my anger calmed down a little, I pressed my head against the door, “Quincy…” I called his name, “I know you’re there.” I spoke softer than before, “Why are you doing this?”There wasn’t any answer for the first few seconds so I called out his name again.“Quincy?”…“Why would you pull such a stupid stunt?” He finally spoke. His voice was coming directly from the other side of the door, “Did you know how worried I was?”“But,” I frowned, “You didn’t even believe what I told you and then you rejected me…”“What else could I have done?’ He said, “I’m your guardian.” He chose a word I couldn’t refute, “I have to be responsible.”“Then why didn’t you believe in me? I told you she tried to kill me-”“I believe you.” He cut my words.“You do?” I was surprised.“But I have to solve things in an orderly manner.” He sighed and pressed his head against the door. That’s when I realised he was sitting against it, “I’m not a kid. We have a system to follow, I can’t just fight with som
>>QuincySlashing the atmosphere with a dark magic tool creates a portal that opens to the realm of magic. Although, it is specific to dark continents only. Just like how the Dryad, the light magic spirit doesn’t allow the undead creatures to pass through it and enter the magical forest, the dark continent is a place that is void of light magical creatures. And the Fae can not use dark magic tools at all.I stared at the dark hollow portal I just made and sighed.It’s been twenty years since I came to live in the human world. During that time, not even once did I think about going back and there were a number of reasons for that.I placed the magic dagger in my jacket’s pocket and crossed over.A wave of nostalgia hit me as the heavy air filled my nostrils. I took a deep satisfied breath as the catastrophic magic coursed through my veins. Being away from the world of magic had sort of made me forget what bountiful magic felt like. The moment I was in my homeland, I felt powerful.The
