4 Sarah (2/2)

”Do you remember what happened when your mother died?” Aaron asked.

”Are you seriously asking me if I remember my mother's death? I don't know, I must have forgotten everything!”

”Do you know what you did?” Aaron said while repeating the same question over and over.

”I passed out.”

”In some way, you gave your pain to all the people around you, everyone was suffocating, puking water from their lungs. We came before you could kill anyone,” Aaron explained.

”I don't remember any of this. You are all crazy!”

”So, tell me, did you see anything else?” Aaron asked.

I had a strange connection with my mother, I saw her memories, I felt her emotions. There was no way I could have reviled all this to them, they would have used it against me and it was my secret to keep.

”It's none of your business,” I remarked.

”What an insolent girl,” Viktor said.

”We already have the information we needed, we will need to go back and report it,” Aaron said.

”What? You really want to leave this being here?” Viktor shouted.

”Sarah, a man named Rayleigh will come in a month and take you to Naeyriv,” Aaron said, as he constantly stared at me.

”And you expect me to come and say nothing? I won't go anywhere until I have real answers.”

”No, you'll come and be tested and depending on what happens, then you might know something,” Aaron said.

I had so many questions or I merely could not believe what was happening. It seemed as my world went upside down in an instant, and I would have gladly wanted it to be a joke, instead, they simply walked right past me.

”Hara Seleanor herall,” Viktor said as he gently touched the mirror.

As they went through it, I could not see their reflection, but from the distance, people were walking on a secluded street near what seemed to be a palace of justice.

Even after many hours passed by, I stood in front of this mirror, perhaps my mind could not process all the information all at once. I nearly killed people without even knowing I was capable of such a thing and now I was here, as I examined what had happened to my life.

”Sar, what are you thinking?” Robert said as he sat down near me.

”There must be something wrong with me, there must be.”

”I am here if you-”

”I know, I'm just thinking how can I rationalise people coming through mirrors? How can it be that my best friend is a golden eyes creature?”

”Half golden eyes creature.”

”And what am I? A human? A mistake?”

”You'll never be a mistake; you don't need to label yourself.”

”Who am I Rob?”

”You are Sarah, a girl that I kissed under the table the first time we met. A brave girl who tried to save me while you were suffocating. My best friend.”

”I need her the most now.”

”I won't leave you, I'll be here every bump in the road like we always do for each other,” he said, as he took two rings out of his pocket.

”I wanted to give you this on your birthday, but after what happened I'll give you my present earlier than it was planned for.”

”What are they?”

”They are special rings in our world, they are called Ienwren.”

”You even have your own language? I guessed it when they were saying those nonsensical words.”

”It means the mirror of your soul. It doesn't matter where you are, I'll always be here whenever you'll need me like you would for me.”

”Always?” I asked.

”I will be eternally beside you.”

”Wouldn't it be tiring to be eternally beside me?”

”From the moment we met, we have always been a soul divided into two bodies. Now running through an eternally epic journey.”

His words were sincere. Our friendship, our love as anyone might call it, would have always been a soulful one. Every time I looked at him, it gave me a vast security of what we had for each other, for me it was more than friendship or than love itself, it was beyond anything in this world, as words would have failed to describe what I felt when I was with him.
