The light of my heart?

Chapter 10: ~New problems~

With heavy breathing and tears running down her cheeks, she sat on the bed in which she slept, trying to remember what had happened in that fictional place. Her dream was too real to just remember it, so much so that when she moved a little she complained that certain parts of her body hurt that that woman called Famine had hit her along with the other two accomplices of her.

Wasn't it just a dream he had witnessed? It was the unknown that he could not solve in those moments because of the entanglement of his thoughts that could not be ordered, it was so confusing that a simple and strange dream did him so much damage and made him doubt about his existence in the world.

He with difficulty got up from the bed and curiously raised his blouse a little to realize that he had bruises on the part of his torso and the occasional one on his arms and legs.

Everything was confusing and that made his head hurt from thinking so much after a few minutes of waking up, but he decided to ignore that and just continued with his weekend routine.

~ Somewhere else ~

Meanwhile the golden-haired boy just got up a little scared from sleep, and checking his cell phone screen he realized that he had slept enough, so he just managed to get back to his activities. It was almost night and he was glad to just have to fix his backpack and uniform, well that was what he believed since when he saw a note from his parents at the table, his plans vanished making a feeling sadness will flood it.

With both hands he ruffled his own hair and tears fell down his cheeks, he wanted to prevent it from happening but it was impossible for him to maintain that smile that characterized him too much, he could not get out of his head what he had written on that paper.

- Why do I have to be an only child? .- He thought.- They will always expect something from me, when in reality.- With a little annoyance, he only gave a slight blow to the table and even with the paper in his hands, he just turned it back to observe.- I have done many things for you, and all you do is hurt me with your damned and prejudiced mouths full of poison.

Ethan just crumpled up the note and threw it in the kitchen trash can, he wanted to sleep but he knew that it didn't solve anything that was happening around him, he always had to put up with words full of poison from his parents and even your family.

           What do you expect from me ?!

     Do they only seek to sink me by being

            different from my family?

     If I were unhappy, would you be happy for

       my, would you flatter me, would your   

                     pride?

         "How low I have fallen from just

       think of something to make them happy

           everyone, how pathetic I am "

His thoughts were his enemies at that time and even more that letter full of bitter words written perhaps by his mother or his father, he no longer knew who had done it since they both had their way of thinking in similarity, and that note said the next:

_______________________________________________

We are going out to celebrate your cousin's union, so don't wait for us for dinner.

I wish you could get married and make a family like he is doing, we never believed that he would get to be in this position since we hoped that you would be the first to marry, but unfortunately you are a very selfish person with your desires .

P.D: And remember that you must get your suit ready because tomorrow we will go to an important dinner, do not disappoint us as you always have.

_______________________________________________

Every written word hurt him, and even more he "don't let us down like you always have." It was the part that resonated in every part of his mind so just to distract himself he began to do his homework while he made his dinner.

Every bite that he took of his food reminded him of every part of the dream, he did not know why and it was illogical since he was only eating, he did not make any sense what was happening to him. His thoughts hovered in the memory of that wedding in which he was the groom and not the guest, he felt happy and childish when he was moved by something that was not real.

-I wish you knew that I am married in the world of dreams.- he thought, leaving aside that face full of bitterness changing that beautiful smile that characterized him.

The hours passed until the clock reached 12 am, that's when he went to bed to try to forget for a few hours that he had parents. Before falling before the charm of morpheus, the only thing he thought about was the words his parents said to him when they wanted something from him.

           "You saw the son of the

               boss of your

            father has very good

                 ratings"

Bottom line: be better than the ...

      "Your cousin already has a girlfriend,  

                  and

        that they are the same age "

In short, find someone and show them that you too can have a relationship ...

        "You saw, those clothes are better

       than the one you are wearing now "

Simply put, he discards your clothes and looks for something better ...

         "Oh, my friend is already a  

              grandmother,

        What will it feel like to have a   

               grandchild? "

In short, give me a grandson ...

     "Ethan, stop this nonsense! Not anymore

      you are a child, if you continue like this 

                 you will be a

         good for nothing ... a damn

      failed, what a shame it would be to be

          parents of someone like that "

In a nutshell:

Change your damn way of being that you embarrass us ...

It was evident that he was hurt by every hint and direct that his parents gave him, but what difference did it make? He had to please them, in that of the grandchildren and girlfriend he could not since no one from his institution attracted him, even the daughters of his friends his mother and father were not to his liking. It was a huge nuisance to him, one more burden to ignore and hide with a smile.

From so much thinking he did not realize when he had fallen into the arms of Morpheus, so he only had to enjoy the only place where he could be the same without having his parents on his back telling him what he did. evil.

              ~ In the dream ~

The young man was in a big church, to tell the truth it was too big and beautiful on the outside, he surveyed his surroundings a bit until a woman approached him and interrupted him.

- Excuse me young man.- she said smiling.

Ethan only directed his gaze towards the one who was wearing a long black off-the-shoulder dress with long sleeves, she was beautiful she had to admit. The brown-haired woman only touched the young man's shoulder and still maintaining that cheerful countenance with which she called him, she asked him:

- Are you the flame of life?.- She asked curiously.

- Excuse me? .- Ethan replied with another question without understanding what that woman was referring to.

- Fire?.- she asked again.

That surprised the young man who only nodded, that silent response apparently had caused the woman happiness since she without prior notice took him by the arm and led him into that church.

All that he visualized inside that place were the white marble pillars perhaps and beautiful paintings of angels with robes of only four colors: red, blue, light blue and brown.

In a mural they were together but there were others where he met different people in a different environment.

The woman was almost dragging him but that did not matter to him since on the other side he noticed that there was the brunette observing the paintings closely together with a group of girls.

- Emm, can you let me go? .- He asked something uncomfortable

- I'm sorry, I just got a little excited.- she replied with a smile.

The one with golden hair only ran to where her friend was to greet her, but when she got there the other girls who accompanied her looked at him with some curiosity.

A little uncomfortable, he approached his goal and placed his hand on the chestnut's shoulder, who only turned to see who it was to be surprised that it was nothing more and nothing less than her dear friend and husband from that world.

- Ethy! What are you domingo here?.- She asked smiling.

- Amy, we are husband and wife .- I raise an eyebrow.- Aren't you glad I'm here?.- The blonde joked.

The brunette just smiled widely and hugged him before the attentive gaze of her friends who only giggled, making them quickly separate.

- Hehe, I'm sorry.- She apologized with a little blush on her cheeks.- He is Ethan, my husband ... Ethan, they are Daniela, Sofía, Wendy and Mariana.

- Nice to meet you.- he said and then bowed. - I'm um ... let's say ...

His words were interrupted by screams from a man and a woman who were not strangers, but were their own guardians who had barely found them.

- My fire prince ...! uff ... ahgg.- Marie spoke with difficulty.

- My princess wind ... I was worried ...

- Prince and Princess ?! .- the girls shouted in unison.
