FORTUNE: A FREENBECKY STORY

Epilogue 🤍🔞

"I'm sorry I left you. Marlin and I discussed this contingency just in case. I couldn't risk the chance of hurting you. I had to end it quickly while I was conscious." Freen said
Rebecca pulled Freen into her embrace and gave her a gentle kiss on the lips. Rebecca smiled.
"Every time I lost you it was for a purpose. In every lifetime unfortunately we both had our path to follow. But now the curse is broken and I believe we have fulfilled that purpose, so what remains is for us to fall in love with each other in every lifetime again and again forever. The last time I lost you the only thing that kept me was knowing this. Knowing that we would find each other again and again forever. It is our Fortune, this love is our fortune." Becky said

Marlin smiled. Becky smacked Freen on her arm.
"Ow! Why?" Freen said
"But how could you do that without talking to me?" Becky said
"What?" Freen asked
"Take your own life." Becky stated
Freen smiled then took Becky's hands into hers.

"Are you really still upset with me?" Freen asked lovingly rubbing Becky's hands with her thumb.
"I had to make sure I wouldn't hurt you. Or anyone else." Freen said
"Fine. Don't do it again." Becky huffed

Freen smiled, "I won't do it again,"
"And you!" Becky said, pointing at Marlin
"You never came to me again after that day." Becky continued
Marlin sighed, "I-, there was, I had responsibilities to my people. I had to rebuild our kingdom. I owed them that much. And... I was ashamed. I had to make it right with both of you. I owed you that much too."
Becky laughed, "hmm, I could have used your help... alright, forgiven."
Freen smiled at Marlin also.

"Urr.. Well now what? Tell me about what happened after. Marlin filled me in for the most part but I'm sure there are things he doesn't know." Freen said
"Or better I'll show you." Becky said yanking Freen's arm.

"Where are we going?" Marlin asked
"We?" Freen asserted
"Actually, I do need you Marlin." Becky said
"See!" Marlin stuck his tongue out
Freen rolled her eyes, "never getting any privacy"
They all laughed.

They travelled into a city area and when they arrived Freen's eyes widened at what she saw.
They were in a crowded museum with different exhibitions.
"Woah!" Freen said
"I know.. I mean it looked a little different back then.. cleaner but.. Marlin" Becky said
"I can help with that." Marlin said

Marlin snapped his fingers and suddenly the people around them disappeared. It was as though they were looking at a glimpse of the past.

"Wow." Freen said
"I know." Becky said

The exhibition was of their story and lifetime moulded into stone. It showed them in their first life and included their children. It included their subsequent lives where they never discovered their past but still ended up together. It included the life that they finally broke the curse and included all of their family and friends.

"Is this Chen's son?" Freen asked
"No, that's Chen's son. This is your nephew, Heng and Billy's son. This is Richie and Irins Daughter. And this is Billy's MUCH younger brother." Becky confirmed
"No way!" Freen laughed
"Yup" Becky said

"Look at Heng, he looks so happy here." Freen smiled
"He lived happily." Becky said
"I'm glad." Freen said

"Are you guys done? I have something to show Sarocha" Marlin said
"Me?" Freen asked
"Don't look so scared." Marlin said

Marlin snapped his finger and they arrived at a vast rural area in the middle of nowhere. They could hear the birds sing, the wind was soothing and the trickle of the lake they were next too was healing.
