"Hello?" I mumbled, moving around in the darkness. "Why is it so dark?" I verbalized to myself. "Light," I simply mumbled then a single white droplet fell to my feel, allowing it to spread all around me. "Malak?" I heard, making me look around and see a very tall dark-skinned man walk to me.

I walked to him then stopped once we've came face-to-face. "I've searched for you, Malak. I don't understand how I could lose you on Earth," he frowned, taking my hand. I looked up at him and tilt my head. "What have you done to yourself, my love? You look so lost," he frowned, leaning down to kiss me.

"Who are you?" I whispered. "Jehovah, my-" he started, causing me to fall to the ground as images quickly filled my head.

"You cannot be my equal, Malak. I'm removing you from my kingdom. You've made my warriors and my sheep turn to sins. You are not welcomed here," Jehovah said not looking me in the eyes. "Jehovah? What do you mean, my love? I thought it was our Kingdom! Our children!" I cry out as his warriors grab me by the arms.

"Forgive us, my Lady," they apologized as I stare at my husband that I never thought would turn his back to me. "Jealousy lives in man and he gave it to everyone," I sniffled as they carried me to Jerusalem.

The warriors that carried me here fell to their knees and kissed my feet. "We will not forget you, my Lady. We never looked at you in lust nor thirst. We look to you as our mother, but we must obey our father. We will always watch and protect you," Samuel cry, making me hold his head up and kiss them both on the lips.

"Never forget me but you will not find me. I will erase all knowledge to not remember that your father, my husband, has banished me from the kingdom. He has banished me from his love and from you all. My love will not falter, which is why I will go. Tell everyone that I love them, and I will return with the one who will be my equal and love you all like no other. Now leave," I ordered, watching them stumble back and wipe the tears from their face.

They gave me their final bow before leaving back to the heavens. "I will find the highest mountain and sleep there until it's time that my love will be around. Hundreds of years will past and all of my knowledge of Jehovah, heaven, pain, hurt, anger, and me being Goddess will fall into abyss until the day that I receive physical contact from Him. Then will every memory come so I do not repeat this heartbreak. It is done."

"Jehovah, the man that I've loved like no other. The man who banished me from the kingdom in heaven. The God who broke my heart," I whispered, taking a step back away from him. "I now know who I am, and I see that you come to take me back," I mumbled.

I watched as Jehovah stared at me then furrowed his eyebrows. "Malak, our children are-" he started, only for me to let out a soft laugh. "Our? What happened to everything within the Kingdom being yours?" I snapped then took a deep breath.

The garden of Eden soon appeared around us, making me gasp and remember when I created Lilith. "They are ours, my love. The kingdom is our and the children are ours. They have gone into an uproar once they couldn't watch you no more. I've tried everything to keep them at bay by even giving you Diego," he said, making me quickly look at him.

"You do not know how to control the children that we created, and Diego is my guard dog? I made sure that you couldn't-" I started, only for him to bring me closer to him. "I am God, Malak. You can never hide from me, my love. I watched and protected you as you slept for so long and I made sure that no beast could harm you. I made sure that you would find Diego so you can raise him," he smiled.

I moved from him and backed away. "You did not. I'm the one who has been saving all these people that you shut out. Bibles has been created, but they give the wrong message. Christians, Catholics, and Jews teach the wrong readings. I've been fooled but now that I know who I am, I will save these poor people," I vowed.

"If they follow the book that they have, they are saved. I need you to come back to the kingdom, Malak. Our children are becoming restless. They beg for me to bring you back," he sighs, picking some fruit from the tree.

"I will return with Zagan. You have turned your back to me, Jehovah. You promised to never do that and you're a God that never breaks promises. I will not try to take your throne but I want our children to be free to roam the heavens and the earth so they can save these people. I do not like seeing them being sentence to Hell. Do you not see that you are giving Lucifer what he wants? He wants to build his empire so he can one day take the throne. You can rule the heaven, but we will co parent. I will rule the earth and show them how to teach and save these people," I suggested.

He took a deep breath then ate a berry that he picked. "Zagan? I don't remember seeing him in my book," he taunts. "But he is in my book along with everyone else. For the people that cannot be saved, you may send them to Lucifer," I said, wishing that it did not have to come down to this.

"This Zagan is someone that you love, yes?" He asked, ignoring my proposition. "Yes, I love him. He will become my equal," I said, folding my arms. "We will discuss more of this in the kingdom over dinner, yes?" He asked tilting my head up.

"Very well. I will bring Zagan and Zariya," I said, watching him frown. He suddenly gripped my jaw then placed a kiss on my lips. "It is settled. Next week before the sun sets in Jerusalem," he mumbled then disappeared into the garden.

I let out a sigh and took an apple from the tree. I took a bite and hum at the delicious flavor. "They do not taste like they used to," I smiled then prepared to go back to my body.

When I opened my eyes again, I felt so many other things touching me that were not my clothes. I sensed Diego on my leg, Zariya holding me in her arms, Zagan rubbing my hand, a warm towel on my head, and the feeling of Diego licking my ankle.

"I would like to get up now."
