Fate and We

The first loss

An expanse space of nothingness and total darkness.. the void

Beyond the veil of this darkness is the universe. All things encompassing, all life energy embracing.. the worlds of the Creator's creatings.

Mortals.

The secrets of worlds are not meant to be acquired by homosapiens. Those who couldn't even break the threshold of their own consciousness.

Out of the %2 who caught a glimpse.. just a glimpse of a very minute portion out of the countless things that are hidden in the universe, only discovered it by chance or let me call it, fate!

The law of the universe are meant to keep it hidden from mortals, but for how long will the so called law hold those that are naturally unruly with potential limit that is quite unevaluated.. the Creator's creatings.

Humans, curious by nature. Humans who stumbled upon this drop of secrets, have a law to follow that is embedded deeply in them.

A warning, a high sense of danger. Guiding them, not allowing them to share what they found. And when they find more than they should, they weirdly disappear from the surface of the Earth with no one to tell their secrets.

The simple unknown fact is, all worlds are linked with human's. The material world precisely.

We don't exist in their world even if we unknowingly stumbled upon them, likewise themselves.

How about the air we breathe in which cannot be seen with naked eye. We can feel other existences too.. goosebumps!!

More confusingly, there are some that can exist in their world and the world of humans with only little to no disadvantage that comes with it.

But since the beginning of all things to the end of many old civilizations and the rise of new ones, however, no one has ever stumbled upon a human, born of flesh and blood that can exist in his world and other worlds that does not even exist to most.

An anomaly indeed!....

At the moment, the atmosphere was mild, people were looking forward to home, some with tired expression on their faces while others with light smiles and even some with neutral gaze.

It was dusk, a time to call it a day, just not for everyone..

In the *Bril Hospital*, a middle class clinic built in a not too hidden location in a part of the city.

White bright lights and walls that seem to calm the mind. ICU Ward 04 at the point in time was occupied by a lovely young lady with a not too good expression plastered on her face at the moment, she was covered in beads of sweats, lying in the hospital bed.

Beside her, gripping her hand tightly is a black and short-haired middle age man beside. He was wearing a roughed up boxer-like short and a simple black round neck, with signs of being wet.

His nice manly body could be seen through his shirt, an height of 6'5ft and a well chiseled face that can make any lady snap out of anger without even trying. It could have been better but right at the moment, he had a troubled look on his face, his wife was in pain, she's in labour, delivering their child.

The presence of the man shouldn't be allowed, but his wife strictly demanded, which was hard for the maidens to turn down.. they could understand her feelings.

Moreover, the man's presence could even boost her morale, they thought.

Sounds of huffing and panting filled the ward, she took a deeper breathe, gestured at her agitated husband to move closer and at the same time burst in tears as she whispered coherent words in clear discomfort..

"Borden.. I don't..know how to explain this, but...."

Her voice couldn't help but break, still, she continued;

"I'm in pain and relief, cold and intense hot from the inside out hmm...ahhah..ahh"

She whispered, moaning in pain as it's started getting unbearable for her strong will.

"I'm feeling weaker by the second. I'm sorry, I don't think I can make it"

Borden's whole domeanor changed immediately his lovely wife, Amy, said those words. Fear gripped his very mind cause he knows his wife for long enough not to be the kind to speak anything nonsensical in serious situations, especially one such as this.. but, still he couldn't help but spat out mild anger;

"Don't you speak nonsense woman, please just don't, not now, please!!!! he screamed tiredly with passion amidst sniffling as he continued..

"Don't let it repeat... the debt of the unknown, asked by the unknown with reasons that are unknown"

Borden mumbled under his breath as his voice trailed off......
