My Broken Family

{I Can Change the Past to Make You Happy}

Minu's ready to change the past so Kristin will be happy. She hopes her older brother, Philza, will also be happy.

The Goddess of Time smiled as she looked down at the world from the clouds. She was proud her prodigy was trying to have a life of his own. That he wasn't straying too far from the path. 

She was snapped out of her thoughts when she heard the caws of all deathly birds. From crows to ravens to vultures. She smiled as she turned around and looked her sister-in-law in the eyes.

"Hello, Kristin. What a surprise to see you here."

She could hear the Goddess of Death sigh. She could feel Kristin's stare upon her. That type of stare that a mother would give a solider, begging to know that her son's alright. 

"Minu, I need to call in that favor. Can you swear an oath to me that you'll change the past and make sure my family lives happily?"

Minu could feel herself freeze. She knew Kristin would call in her favor one day, but for this? She was more than willing to complete the task but Kristin knew what would happen to her after this, right? Minu looked down at the ground, her ruby eyes filled with worry. She wasn't supposed to mess with mortals lives. Kristin knew the eventual price she would have to pay and yet she was still asking for a favor like this? Minu would follow the Goddess of Death until the end but was she really ready to let her loyalty lead her to such a sealed fate?

Minu's question was answered at the pitiful look in Kristin's eyes. She would do anything to make sure the Goddess of Death was happy. Minu looked at Kristin with a smile.

"Of course, Death. I swear upon the time that passes everyday."

All Minu needed in response was that lovely smile of Kristin's. That's when Minu pulled out the clock that ticked back in time. How lovely these pocket-watches and clocks were. They allowed her to be in every time period all the time. But for now, she needed to take her entire soul back to when everything had originally gone wrong. When Kristin had planned her own "death".

Minu was now back where this whole mess had truly started.
