Everything in front of my eyes were becoming blurry. My vision was fading in and out.
This... is not... something I have asked for...
I was about to collapse when suddenly I felt a gentle hands beneath my head. It was a female figure with some heavenly bright aura with her. She looked like she's the same age as my mother. But she was not alone. She came with many other men and women who were also having hoodies.
Slow down little girl. Your body is too weak to handle the energy in here." She said placing my head on her lap.
"Who.. are you?"
Without answering my question, she started saying some strange language and it felt she was trying to communicate with some invisible presence. Moving her right hand from her forehead to her lips, she took her hand's direction all the way to Melisandre and gave a lightening strike on her. Melisandre couldn't take the strike well and dropped the wand immediately.
Meantime, Jasper ran towards the wand and took it. He immediately ordered the hooded people to take away Melisandre and to put her in the darkest dungeon.
Vannesa, Ivy, Valquor, Jasper surrounded me and started to chant something faintly audible. By the time, I didn't had any energy in my body to see or speak anything. Jasper kissed my forehead and gradually I closed my eyes.
************************************
"Should we call a doctor?"
"No. let's wait and see if she opens her eyes."
The murmuring sound was very familiar to my ears. I struggled to open my eyes but I did. It was my mum and dad sitting at the corner of the bed.
"Mum... Dad? You people are back? When? And....... Where are the others?" I asked bluntly.
"Others? Who others? You mean your friends? But when we reached here there was no one and the door was not locked either. You literally scared us. You were sleeping so soundly that we thought there's something wrong with you. Are you Ok love?" Dad asked brushing my hair.
I still was not able to gather up anything. Confusion and questions were piling on my mind.
"I was busy studying and cleaning the house may be that's why I was tried and slept." I answered.
"You shouldn't pressure yourself this much." Mum said handing over the glass of water to me.
"You should go out and take a walk. Return back before evening." Said dad.
My world was crashing down slowly. It was difficult for me recollect what happened after my unconsciousness. I was starting to miss Jasper and suddenly it felt like a very long dream. Walking in loneliness I reached the same supermarket at which Jasper approached me first. Wandering into each section, I stopped by the men's shaving section and unknowingly I smiled at it.
"You still use these? I thought you changed." A voice from behind.
I already knew who it was and my eyes were teary. Looking back in shock, I jumped on Jasper.
"I thought you are never coming back. Where did you go? What happened that day? How did I reach home?"
"Will you ask everything here or should we get to some café and talk?" Jasper smiled and took my hand into his.
We reached to a café and got seated to a private space.
"You wanna order something?" Jasper asked.
"One cup of cappuccino."
He waved at the waiter and ordered the same for himself.
"Your energy was exhausted when you fainted. It was my mother who came to you. She came with the other witches and wizard to rescue because it wasn't easy to control Malisandre with the wand. She told me to get you back to home. Sooooo... Here we are." He looked into my eyes, smiling.
"So everything is restored and you are going back?" I asked.
"I have to. The wand needs to be with the owner and I cannot risk anything again."
Jasper was very honest with his answers. At this time I needed to understand that life doesn't run only with love itself.
"But Valquor can take my place until I return."
"Return?" My voice shivered in hope.
"I will stay near you till the end. It's not possible to make you an immortal but it's possible for me to stay with you until your mortal life is done. May be in the next birth you can be my immortal bride. For now, I'll be your immortal groom."
I didn't know how to react to this. Getting up from my chair, I just jumped on him with tears.
Love is there for everyone to embrace-that kind of unconditional emotion for all of humankind.
Today, we both are married and blessed with a baby girl. Mum dad were first resistant towards us but later they accepted Jasper. Tinker also got a new neighborhood partner to play. Valquor, Ivy and Vanessa still visit us at times.
This is the kind of love that impels people to go into the community and try to change conditions for others, to take risks for what they believe in.
THE END
