MINA'S POV
I laid on the bed in my room, going through a book when the door suddenly opened and mom came in, holding a glass of whatever it is.
"Mina", She called sweetly as she came close and sat next to me on the bed.
"Hi mom", I greeted, covering my book on my lap.
She handed the glass to me and I stared at it without drinking.
It was a green 💚(Mina's color) liquid and mom always gives it to me every night before I go to bed.
"Mom what is this and why do you always make me take it?", I asked and she sighed and placed her hand on mine.
"It’s just an herbal drink Mina, that’s very healthy for the body", She replied and I nodded and gulped it down.
It was so bitter and I crumpled my face up after taking it. She smiled and collected the glass from me, keeping it on the table beside her.
"Let me tell you a story Mina", She said.
I love it when she tells me stories. They’re always interesting.
"Okay mom", I replied happily and laid properly on the bed, making sure i had clear view of her face.
She smiled and rubbed her palm on my hair.
"It all happened a long time ago", She started.
"In a different world from ours, called hell. Hell was lovely and peaceful as it was being ruled by the Price Chaeyoung. The prince of hell is always called Lucifer".
"The whole place was peaceful and calm and everything went on fine but not until jealousy stepped in".
"One of the King's friend became envious and desired the throne for himself. As a result, he betrayed the King and turned the hearts of the people against him as well".
"That man had the king and his family locked up and tortured them. Because of his background, he was the most powerful being in hell at that time and that was why he was able to achieve all that".
"He tortured the King’s wife and raped her severally in front of her son".
"He did?", I ased, taking abacked. It was so horrible.
"Yes, and her son was just a little boy but he’s the present Lucifer in hell now", She replied.
"What happened to the man?", I asked again.
"Well, he lost in his battle. He couldn’t take over the throne".
"Some other powerful people in hell stood up and fought against him and he lost but he had already killed the king and his wife. Luckily their little boy was able to escape him".
"But this lucky boy grew up with so much hatred and darkness and since then he’s been after the man's only child".
"The man had a child?", I asked curiously.
"Yes, he was married to a young innocent lady who never knew the evil side of him until he betrayed the king", She replied and sighed sadly.
"The man loved his daughter so much, probably because she took after him by possessing his powers".
"She was precious to him and he died, risking his life to protect her when war was being waged against him after he betrayed the king. She was just a toddler".
"The mother of the baby had to run away with her, far away to a different planet but the late King’s son kept searching for them for revenge".
"Revenge?", I asked surprised.
"Yes. He’s after the Man's daughter so he can revenge everything her father did to him".
"But that’s absurd. I mean, the man's daughter has nothing to do with what happened to him".
"You’re right but he doesn’t think that way. In hell it is believed if a person dies and his loved one is being hurt, he’ll be able to feel it and sometimes see it and that’s exactly what Lucifer wants".
"He wants to hurt the Man's daughter so the man can see it and know he’s getting his revenge", I scoffed and shook my head. Sounds really crazy. Thank God it’s just a story.
"So was he able to find her?", I asked after a little pause.
"Well her mother’s trying to make sure she keeps her away from him. Running to another planet took all her powers away from her and now, she’s defenceless and just prays she’ll be able to protect her daughter from
Lucifer", She replied.
"So?".
"Well, that’s the end of the story".
"Huh? But you didn’t tell me what happened between Lucifer and".
"That’s just where the story ends. I also never got to hear the end of it", She replied and I chuckled and rolled my eyes.
"Fine, well I hope the Man's daughter is safe", I said and laughed cuz it sounded funny. Mom just smiled and rubbed my hair again.
"Goodnight Mina, I love you", She said.
"Love you too mom", I replied and she pecked my cheek and left the room. I smiled and stared at the closed door for some time.
Mom’s story replayed in my head. Then I stood up and went to standby the window.
That same ugly bushy view welcomed me again.
When will I ever get out of here, what the world looks like and explore it? When?.
I sighed and leaned on it. Suddenly, a crazy thought came at me.
