Ornagons

"Hi, Giovanni!" A lovely voice greeted me. I nod as a response. Jessica, the lady who greet me is the one who took care of this retirement home where I was. "The sun is saying a goodbye, huh." She mumble and I agreed to her. I don't know what gotten her here, a beautiful lad like her has a good and wonderful future a head but she choose to stay at this home for the aged person and took care of us. "Do you know, Gio..." I stared at her while she has her eyes settling at the sunset. "I really wanted to travel around the world and discover more, but my aunt couldn't and I don't want to left her at a stranger so I decided to build this retirement house for everyone to be safe while their relatives can take time to enjoy life, as I can't." She said and her bright smile become more bright. Her smile is the one of the reason why she is the star of this home, she is our hope, our savior when things gotten the way. She extended her arms on us when the world decided to turn its back on us and left us in the darkest pages of our lives. "If the legend of the Wilhs Ornagon is true I wish it help us all to grant our dreams. " She said and sit on the chair beside me. The Wilhs Ornagon, a legendary companion who grants wishes, but no one can prove its existence so now it is one of the legendary Ornagon that books are talking about. "I hope so, lady." I respond to her. Even if is a legend or a myth I would want to take some hope to wish that maybe I can turn back the time where everything starts. "Giovanni..." I tried to find the voice, "Giovanni..." It calls my name again and again and again. The voice is different from anybody here, this one is so soothing and relax. It's like an angel calling me. Is it my time to leave the World? I think so. The last thing I remembered is Sandra tucked me into sleep. "Giovanni, come..." I search the dark for any signs of life but to my dismay pure darkness is conquering this place where I am. I walk and walk as the voice kept on calling my name, I, myself is getting tired on searching. "Giovanni." I begun to see a ball of white light from afar it getting bigger as second passes before it turns to a woman with golden hair. She extended her arms as she's saying that I should come close to her. My feet's started to walk on its own like I'm under a spell. "I heard you." Heard me what? Her angelic face presented a smile, "I heard your wish." The flashbacks of my wish on that afternoon started to form in my head. "If I would give you a chance like what you wish. Do you consider to change this world for us?" She ask and it got me confuse. What in the World happen and what should I fix? "The government in this place was taking advantage on Ornagons. They were ascended here in Earth as a companion of everyone but they made business out of us..." She hold my hand and I felt the security in that touch, "Help them Giovanni." She plead. "Why me? An old man who would probably die anytime?" I ask. There is something I really need to know. "Gio?" A knock on the door woke me up from my sleep. What a weird dream. I really should prioritize my self than wishing silly things from now on. I wear my slide on slippers beside my bed and decided to open the door for whose person on my door, probably Sandra or Matthew for an early walk. I opened it and walk back from my room to fix the mattress I use before. Even if I'm not a helper here I must reduce their works as I know the feeling of exhaustion for working out to earn a money to support your selves. "I told you leave the door open, Gio..." I look back on the door and to my surprise Leo is there! Leo my roommate in college is here! s**t, I think I'm still on the dream. "Earth to Gio." And he wave his hand in front of my face. Calm down Gio, this is just a dream. I tried to slap my self but I just groaned in pain. "The f**k, bro?" Leo's eyebrows raise as if he was seeing weird things."Why are you slapping yourself?" He ask. I run to the bathroom and I even more surprise when I see myself on the mirror. Holy s**t! I think Sandra mistakenly gave to me a hallucinogen drugs as my vitamins. "Bro?" A confuse face of Leo standing at the door was the one I seen, "Binangungot ka ba?" (Do you had a bad dream?) Even his tagalog accent is similar. He then walk in front of me and touch my forehead before he confusedly took back step from me, "Your temperature is good now, I think the medicine that my grandma makes was still effective." "I brought a porridge." He happily said and run back to the kitchen to prepare the porridge.
