Chapter 211 - Fate (2/2)
”Shen Qian... Lena...” She whispered those names.
If Lena assumption was correct and what the old lady told Shen Milli and her, Shen Qian soul could be the sister of Lena. Shen Qian's soul did not belong to this world but her fate was... It make sense that this may be the reason why she was put here to this world.
Could it be that after her ”death and rebirth”... her soul merged with Lena's just so she was stable enough to stay here? And because her fate was destined to be here... maybe that is why she was able to find Kris. What about Lena's soul? or Shen Qian? Did Shen Qian really die in her sleep the same peaceful death like when she passed in Shen Milli's womb?
Lena would need to seek out that old lady again so she can get the answers she needed. She was never really curious about her original life as Shen Qian. However, knowing that those two souls were connected more than just fate but blood, she was more intrigued to find out more.
Lena had already accepted her identity and her role in this world. She was meant to be here... where her fate lies.
She closed her eyes and pushed the unnatural thoughts behind her mind. She picked up her phone and called Kris. He picked up after the first ring.
”Hey.” He softly answered.
”My mom knows about us.” Lena spoke. ”I mean she does not know about us, like specifically you, but, just that I am seeing someone.”
”Ok.”
”That's it? You're not anxious or anything?”
”No. We're keeping on the down-low but if people know... they know. I mean... my friends know.”
When Lena thought about it, Kris' friends know, but Hazel does not know. But then again, Hazel was not one who can keep it on the down-low.
”Kris?”
”Hmm?” He replied.
”Do you believe in fate?”
”I believe that fate brought us together. I believe that fate had allowed me to see you and love you.”
”What if... we are not fated to be together?”
”Then I would defy fate and all the godly powers of the world to just be with you.”
He no longer has any small doubt that they were not going to be together. He had decided to fully trust Lena. He knew that no matter what he shows her or whatever fate decides to throw at them to test their love, they would be together forever.
”Lena?” Kris whispered.
”Hmm...”
”I lied. I would never let you leave me. Not before, not now, and not ever in the future.” Kris confessed.
”I know. I would never leave you anyway, not out of my own free will that is.”
”No matter what happens, I would find you, because you're mine.”
Lena laughed over the phone. ”Say that again.”
”You're mine.”
There was a small moment of silence. They just took the time to appreciate the presence of each other. Lena yawned and Kris knew that she was feeling tired.
”You should go to sleep.” Kris said.
”But I want to stay with you longer.”
”Then I'll stay here until you go to sleep, but go to sleep now.”
”Ok...”
