Day Three.
1085 Words
At Kevin's room, he was in the bed staring at the ceiling, smiling because today was the happiest day he had ever experienced given how his new father and mother reacted towards him being disease free and finally telling his two sisters the reason why he visited the hospital. Held his chest as he could audibly hear his heart beating.
“Today. I will never forget the smiles on their faces.” He sighed. “But. This-This is is not my life, all this are for the boy. Anyway the world need to be save from who ever wants to destroy it.” He looked around, noticed his phone on the desk. “Second day in this world.” He said, stood up and picked it.
Pressed the on button at the side of the phone, a picture of Feyi was on the boy’s lock screen wallpaper. Swiped up.
“Nice, no password.” Went straight to his contacts, surprisingly the boy had only four contacts which was Daddy, Mummy, Feyi and The Twins. Then went to the internet and search about reincarnation.
He found some information about reincarnation and stories behind it.
“Reincarnation….belief…..non physical…..” suddenly his phone rang, on the screen it showed Feyi. Kevin blinked. Gently picked it.
“Hello. Feyi. What’s up?”
“I’m good.” She responded, Kevin sat on the bed,
“I have a great news to tell. Am disease free, Feyi! Dad and I went to the hospital this evening and we were told by the doctor I was cured for some certain reasons.”
“Alright.” Feyi said in a low tone. Kevin eyes went round.
“Alright? Is that your response? Feyi what’s wrong?”
“Nothing.”
“Then why did you call?”
“I said nothing you hear!!” She screamed on the phone.
“Hey there…. Feyi. Feyi. Hello?” Kevin removed his phone from his ear, “She cut the call. Is she alright?” Kevin said, called her number, it rang for sometime but Feyi didn’t picked the call.
Call her number again this time it was switched off. Kevin dropped the phone on the bed, staring at it. Scratching his head.
“What did I do?”
Few moments later, in his sleep Kevin was in the endless white light. He looked around.
“Really, every time I sleep, I ended up being here.” He said while he sat down and lowered his head. Chinue playfully flew to him.
“Great to see you again, Silly.” She greeted with a smile, but was ignored. “Huh? Silly is sad because of a girl.”
“You knew. Could Deities see and know all things?, if yes, I would have changed the world into a better place.” Kevin said still lowering his head. Chinue gently landed on the ground, sat down near him.
“You might be right. On the other hand, Deities actually don’t know or sees everything. Like the day the world will be destroyed, the wills of you humans, what the creator look like and few more. We only see or do what he tells us.”
“Hmmm. Is that all?” Kevin asked, Chinue glanced at Kevin.
“What has gotten into you, Silly? Your questions seems direct.” Chinue said,
Kevin stood up.
“Yeah. As things goes, whenever I tried to understand the reason why am here, there will be another hold up, most especially stealing this boy’s life and lying to them. I know, I know you told me before I chose the body.”
“Lying? You can tell them the truth, nothing is stopping you from telling them.”
Kevin sighed. “I'm sorry. I shouldn’t have given to my emotions.”
Chinue chuckled.
“Kevin, don’t be. I understand you are confused as the fate of the world is on your shoulders.”
Kevin smiled. “Hmmm. You said my real name for the first time.”
“Ah. Don’t allow it to get into your head, Silly.” She stood up. “You need to know this, Silly.” Kevin narrowed his eyes. “As from today, things will be getting hard even for you to handle however be strong to face it.” Chinue warned.
“Another mystery to solve, don’t worry I will be on guard. I promise.” Kevin assured, Chinue nodded.
“That’s all for now.” She snapped her fingers as Kevin woke up on his bed already in the morning and this time not floating in the air. Raised his upper body up. Looked at the door, Gillian and Jennifer on there school uniform were standing on the door way staring at him. He stood up but this time, he was less frightened because he had given them the best news of their life.
“Good morning, Big brother. How was your night?” the twins asked, Kevin walked to them, smiling.
“Good. It was good.” He bent down. “Seeing my lovely twin sisters are good in keeping secrets. Let me show you a trick.” Gillian and Jennifer both looked at each other then back to their brother and nodded. Kevin smiled looked behind them, if Daddy and Mummy is coming then he widened his palm, slowly removed one of his butterfly sword from it, Gillian and Jennifer both widened their eyes. “That’s not all.” He waved his other hand, as the other butterfly sword materialized in his hands.
Kevin chested out while holding the two butterfly swords, Gillian and Jennifer eyes beamed. Then both butterfly swords dematerialized before their eyes. “What do you think?”
Gillian slowly lowered her eyes.
“Big brother.” Gillian called, Kevin and Jennifer looked at her. “Are you really our big brother?” Kevin blinked.
“I….uhm….” he stammered, suddenly Gillian hugged him.
“No don’t answer yet. I don’t want to know.” She sniffled. Kevin swallowed while gently patting her while looking at Jennifer.
“Jennifer, should I answer your twin sister.” He asked, Jennifer shook her head as she hugged Kevin too. “Okay. Okay. I will not tell.”
“Kevin!! Wake up, is time for school o.” Mother said, downstairs. “Honey. Where are the twins?”
“Go now. Let me dress up.” Kevin said, as they broke the hug and nodded. Went outside of his room, gently closing his room door. Kevin sighed of relief. “That was slightly intensed.” He said to himself as he went in the bathroom.
Few moments later. Kevin and his twin sisters dropped in front of the school gate from their father's car.
“Bye kids! Take good care of yourselves! Bye, bye… love you more… love you hard…”
“Daddy. You are embarrassing us.” The Twins said while following their big brother into the school premises.
Kevin looked at the Sky and sniffed in the air, at its tenderness.
“Day three.” He said to himself.
