"You.....you are an alien!" Raavi replied as he tried to make sense of what he was looking at.
"No! No, I am not!" Opet reacted as she waved her hands at him.
"Then....then what am I looking at? This isn't some trick? Trying to throw some fast one at me. You are in some suit or using light projection to fool me."
"I promise you, Raavi, that I am what you see before you. I was a goddess."
He displayed nothing but confusion. His shock and surprise were still apparent, but he was getting used to looking at what was Oniya. He was trying to make sense of the event.
"Goddess? You are saying that you are a deity?"
"I.....I was. I was one. I am a New Olympian."
He seemed to try to put it together. Her looks were seemingly innocent. She didn't look like some terrifying monster to him. Her eyes alone gave a calm and relaxed look. She had eyebrows and blue eyes, almost similar to a human being.
"I don't understand. You say that you are a New Olympian. The New Olympians are human. You don't appear to be one."
"I assure you that I am. I am the person you have been talking to online. I use Oniya as my fake name. My real name is Opet."
"If you are what you say you are, then you know what happened a month ago when we were talking to each other on our online date."
She seemed to think for a second. Then she smiled at Raavi. "You were talking about how beautiful my hair was. You and I were discussing about having children and living a pleasant life together. We watched each other eat and then.....I remember you telling me that you wanted to make love to me. Since we were separated lightyears apart, I wanted you to remember me, and I took my top off. It was the first time that you saw me topless."
Raavi realized that she was right. His memories flashed to those events. He remembered the excitement he felt that day. It even caused him to look at her chest as he thought about it. Opet's larger size meant that she had bigger breasts than the human form he saw before. The uniform, however, lowered down her aesthetic appeal. Regardless, her human hippo-like eyes seemed to catch him in the act before he looked away.
"Raavi, you know it is me. I know that you lost your virginity at the age of nineteen to a woman from Cipra. You wanted more in the relationship, but she told you that she didn't want to have a family. I remember a tear that ran down your face when you explained to me that she was the perfect woman for you. It was the first time you were truly heartbroken."
He seemed to get the point, but a part of him still wondered if this was a trick. Opet emitted light from her body. For him, it could be some holographic projection, but why would she choose such an appearance as this?
"I.....I believe that you know my past enough. I am skeptical, though," he said. "For all, I know you are dressed up as something else. You are using light to fool me. I feel like you are just pulling a trick. I get convinced, and then you drop the disguise. You get a big laugh and gawk about it to your crew."
"Raavi, come to me," Opet said. "Take a knee beside me. Please"
He did as she suggested as he walked back up next to her. He kneeled by the couch as she extended her hand to his.
"Feel my hand, my love," she said.
He reached out and touched her hand. The gray skin was smooth and delicate to the touch. He could feel the warmth as if blood was pumping through her veins.
