Spitting Blood into a Fish Tank Vol. I [A Wish to Wish]

16 - dreamless hope XX

Her feet sway elegantly as water splashes.

Foxy Rosy where are you?

The bloodied umbrella keeps her safe within her little Pluto.

Luna above the skies,

Oh, how Lita has always loved it when the Heavens cry.

bloody apple presented as a crown,

And when the fire of Hell sings its bittersweet temptations,

heads thrown like glassy marbles,

Lita would smile as the crimson liquid paints her delicate fingers.

won't you come and play along?

The mortal twirl under the heavy rain.

Crimson blood dyes the flowing water. Fifty men, all dead.

With only her once translucent umbrella, she has committed another great sin.

The sticky liquid colors her umbrella in crimson red, her wet shoes are now stained, and she sings a melody. The song of the common people.

In the dark alley, where anyone with no interest to be dead wouldn't dare imagine, the mortal smiles.

A smile that is so hideous that the Heavens would wrinkle their nose as if it were sour milk and spoiled fish.

A smile that only belongs to Lita Dan herself, that she could never win to others, but others could never win to her.

The smile of a mad child.

Lita twirls and sings, whether her voice is blissful or not, she doesn't care. Only when the rain pours more, did she stop and walk past the fifty dead men as if they were pebbles.

And at the end of the alley, where there is nothing but mushrooms, rats, and garbage, Lita wished she had a little thing she could protect.

A mortal's heart is as confusing as always. Wish and prayer, what's so different about them?

In the end, they are but a mortal's heart desires.

And so, with her reality and imagination, wine and bread, hatred and yearning, Lita Dan has created her very first illusion, a brown puppy.

A misty memory of an old tale,

a once upon a time,

under the hazy skies,

where the vast heavens paint eternally,

the nameless piece whispers a story,

but in the end, who will sing the forgotten song of the unknown?

The song of the common people is but a simple song.

A mere poetic song with only a disorienting story only the common people know the truth of, a painful memorial of one of the many common people, and the common people who keep on singing the piece to their children as if it holds no dark meaning beneath the soothing words.

Crimson fluid as wine,

confetti and heavy ruby robes,

corrupted Sabbath Day,

a majestic whipped chocolate cake and dear grandma's sugary cookies,

what is there to be asked more?

Truth to be told, under the fair moonlight, Lady Fate is indeed a terrible mistress.

Lita Dan, oh, what a pitiful mortal. Even the Heavens who could never show exceptional kindness pity her.

Crowned night has forever gone to ashes,

empty future holds no more soul,

then loved,

now forgotten,

once whole,

now meaningless.

even so, is it a sin to wish a wish?

That night, Lita Dan's illusion powers were activated.

That night, she has used her power on herself, creating an illusionary little brown creature that was but a dream to her eyes, that became a real living creature as time goes by, with wine and bread feeding it full.

Heavens, is it a sin to wish a wish?

Then, the man kills him.

Crimson and carmine.

Slowly, Lita feels sick of the color she used to adore so much.

The mortal wished to live again.

But the Heavens' commands are complicated, and thus, she is sent to Hell. Where the devil himself judges for her sins.

Lita wished that her little brown dog is loyal to no end, thus the brown dog's heart is created.

Loyalty, it follows to Hell and the next cycle of life.

She is no longer a mortal, now an immortal.

And she wished that her loyal one would be by her side in near-death of war, thus the loyal one became a Heavenly being, a celestial being.

The brown dog, the loyal one, the dog of no name, is but Lita Dan's wish and dream. An illusion among her thousands of fantasies.

Crimson and carmine.

Lita and Nuri feel sick of the color she used to adore so much.

Tell me, is it a sin to wish a wish?
