Chapter 157: the journey
Rory
"Rory, meet the three people who’d be assisting us. Mylo, Issa and Jeremy." Ella introduced me to three guys who had the same skin as hers. They all looked so gorgeous that it was almost impossible to comprehend: their hairs were flowing so much as well, and they all offered me warm smiles as they all stepped forward to hug me tightly. I had thought they’d regard me weirdly since I was certain Ella already told them I’d like to return back to earth. And for that, I’m very glad.
"So, we’ll leave by dawn tomorrow. But for now, why don’t we all get to know each other? Then you can tell us about yous experiences on earth because we’re very intrigued that you experienced something so good that you want to return back to it." Mylo said this time and I grew a little tense before nodding in agreement. I’d have preferred to stay by myself so I could think about my life but I also didn’t want to turn down the people who are gonna be helping me out in the next three days.
Which was why after I agreed, they all huddled ma forward and in no time, we got into some sort of hut. But the inside of it was decorated exquisitely and it looked just as beautiful as every other part of this world looked.
We were all ushered to a table and drinks were served, but when I tasted it, I tasted nothing. Ella was quick to assure me that after 3 days, I’ll be able to do everything they do here, which included that.
I let out a sigh as I tried to focus on the conversation at hand. The guys were teasing each other and it looked so much like they were really close friends.
"In case you’re wondering how we all got sent back here since unlike Ella who’s yet to be sent to earth, the rest of us have been sent before. And our experiences were different shades of horrible. We thankfully couldn’t remember most of it, bit our spirit was already weakened because of that when we returned here. After we turned back into what we actually are, our spirits returned to its normal state. But we can all feel how strong your energy is, which means you weren’t lying when you said you wanted to return because of the life you left behind." Jeremy spoke this time and I nodded once he was done speaking before nodding.
"Yeah, you’re right. And I’m so sorry over how much you all suffered on earth." I offered but they all waved me off, assuring me that it’s been ages so now they’re over it.
"But are you really sure you want to leave? If that ends up working and you end up getting sent back to your old life, you might not end up remembering a thing from this life. And if you do leave like you want to, you’ll lose out of all the perks of remaining here... because if you do remain here, you’ll slowly grow into your powers." Issa spoke this time and I felt my eyes widened as I stared between all their faces.
