You're My First Wish, Leandra A. [read with me TXT] 📗

his head from her.

 

You've been angry about something but refuses to tell me the reason, she told him and then step back a little while smiling. I might be a child but I at least know if you're worried about me knowing something, she said then turn her back at him, What's important to me is this person who's with me right now...all I care about is the present you, Gin, she told him then run away from him, to hide her blushing face.

 

Gin was awed by her comment and can't believe to hear such thing from a child, he then realize that as he thought, she was really no ordinary child ever since the first time they met. She didn't even faze upon hearing that the man showed up was a demon, something that a human will actually be scared to see.

 

I should be the one who's puzzled on what's going on, he thought to himself while thinking that it might be really her fate that actually brought them into this mess together.

 

Genie's Flower

The first time I came here in the surface what appeared in front of me were this colorful tiny things, they called flowers, blooming freely and scattering its petals on me. I wasn't sure If it’s any better than the other side where I came from. I guess it’s a little bit better than that side which has only darkness and emptiness on it.

 

 Then one day this little fool made these outrageous wish of becoming my wife and be with me from now on. Life on earth was pretty boring but I thought this will be good way to kill sometime, that's how my uncaring attitude thought the first time I met her.

 

On the past, I wouldn't concern myself from anyone or anything around me. There are many of them that ask for my presence, specially the demons who find interest on the jinni's power. But I was often told that mine was special since I was the only one who manifested to take a human form immediately when I was born out of the hell's fire and smoke...and they are telling me that out of all djinns my power was in par of that in heaven and above of that demons real.

 

Why did you avoid me when I tried to touch you? This little fool asks me as I avoided her little hands that want to touch my face.

 

Anne, where did you go? Didn't I say it’s dangerous for you to go out in your own! I shouted at her, what if that demon came back and saw you alone? I muttered then noticed that she was about to cry in front of me.

 

I...I just get out to get these, she then showed me the flowers she got for me, it was the same flower she gave me in exchange of the chocolates which I told her I liked.

 

I'm sorry, I'm not mad at you...just don't go out without telling me, I patted her head and then told her to get back to her room and rest. To my surprise she suddenly collapses before she can even take a step.

 

Sigh...you're really troublesome, I sighed and then gave her some cold medicine to help her get better. I cannot cure her because it will just drain more of her life source in exchange.

 

No...I don't want to; she pouted and refused to even look at me.

 

You! Do you think I enjoy doing this! , I shouted thinking that's she's a real pain in the ass, she collapse because of cold and now wouldn't want to take her medicine. If that's the case then, I put the medicine inside my mouth and then kissed her, in order to make her swallow it. 

 

Ah...there you go sleep and rest now! I can see her face becomes a little bit red for some reason.

 

My everyday life experience with her was all first for me. I often find myself thinking that she's a real mystery. Before I went into the surface, the beings that surrounds me would always gave me flattering words and smile, telling me that I'm special and was an important being that could change the three worlds as I wish. 

 

That's why although I find her stupid, this innocent smile she is giving me was the first time I got something sincere, which I started to treasure most. Her smile was like of the thing human called "flower", small and fragile yet one can't help himself to pluck it. So from being a good thing to kill some time, she turned now to be something scary.

 

Hey...are you feeling alright now?  I asks her and then touched her forehead to see if her temperature has cooled down, I guess you're fine now, I was about to leave the room when her tiny little hands touched my hand.

 

I really love this hand, it feels cold yet it feels good when you touch me like this, She told me while smiling stupidly.

 

I can't believe it myself but I found myself being scared for the first time. I'm scared of breaking and loosing this little flower I found myself. And yet each time, she easily brushed past my concerns and laughed silly.

Silent Prayer

I would always find myself, staring blankly outside my window while watching the surrounding color change as rain falls. It's been a week since that incident and Gin refused to tell me anything about that man who suddenly showed up in front of us.

 

Although I am still a child, I can feel that Gin is worried and hiding something from me. I don't understand it as well but I know that it has something to do with our lives together. I wish that he'll soon open up with me...

 

Days become months now, our days together seems passing without the two of us noticing, I almost forgot what happened last Valentine's Day. But Gin on the other hand seems to be wary and restless but won't bother to tell me the reason.

 

Where did you go! Didn't I tell you not to go outside without telling me first! He shouted at me, looking paler than what he's already was.

 

I only got these for you; I answered with my voice trembling because of the cold and showed him the flowers I got for him. 

 

I decided to find and give him again the flower that he told me he liked when I first gave it to him. I wish to see again that happy face he made when I first gave it to him and help him forget the things going around his head.

 

But again I made him more troubled and even have him take care of me when I collapsed because of the rain. I remember his trembling voice calling my voice repeatedly as I lost my consciousness.

 

This Genie I found and even became my husband, I can't help myself from smiling each time I call him my husband. Gin was so precious to me and he might always say how he hates me clinging to him, but still he can't leave me alone and be still worried at me.

 

Sigh...you are really troublesome, this is what he often told me as he sighed. But behind his rough words hides his kindness, I just can't help falling more for him. 

 

When I wake up I saw him sitting beside me while holding my hand. He sighed in relief when he saw that I'm okay now and even gave me a gentle smile. But then again frown on me when I told him that he made me fell in love with him all over again. He said that I should stop saying nonsense that I don't fully understand.

 

He was the first person who gave me a gift, and the first person who took care of me when I got sick. It almost made me think that all of my firsts will come true by him. And he was actually my first wish that came true. I was happy to have somebody to be with from now on. And never will feel sad on being alone again. I hope that we will be together forever.

 

I felt that I'm on a dream whenever I am with him. It almost does seem that my time has stopped and revolves around only with him. But none of this was important for I don't care what my future will become as long as I can be with him. I hope that it was the same for him.

 

However I know that I am still in reality and anytime soon he might be taken away or leave me alone. That's why I made a promise to myself to do my best and be the best wife he can have in order for him to make him stay at my side. I wish to hurry up and grow up soon to be on his equal footing.

I remember myself wishing for someone to give me a gift that I never had, even if Christmas has ended already. The snow is falling like a still light slowly melting in my palm and at that time I thought that pain is better than loneliness. I was hoping for someone to hear this silent prayer of mine.

 

The angels failed to hear my silent voice but then suddenly across the thin cold air...you called me. I followed your voice that's calling my name in this nightmare and then instead you brought me on this dream...I refuse to wake up from.

 

I am aware that as I follow your voice, I'll find myself lost inside this dream. And as I go deeper, I now become close to the pain of your memories. It doesn't matter to me, I want to go further inside this dream you gave me.

 

You take my hand and gave me my very first gift. You don't have any idea how it saves me from my lonesome folly.

 

I look back in the passing tenderness you gave each day and were hoping for someone to hear this silent prayer of mine...please let me stay with you like this and make more memories.

 

I know I'm being too comfortable on this vanity lair I found with you, it’s too sweet yet I still felt this chill inside. This uneasiness I felt knowing that this life I have with you is near to crumble as I go deeper and see the real you.

 

There are times I saw you staring blankly with an eyes of a stranger I don't recognize meeting. Each time I saw this; I'll
