Chapter 5

Tina's bell rang. Early huh? She said excited through the door. She opened it to a man that looked exactly like Harpo but this man had naturally honey blond hair Harpo?

He pushed Tina to the side where is it? Where is what? My book human? Tina giggled are you playing a trick on me Harpo? Harpo is that the name he gave? He hasn't gone by that since we were children. Who are you if you aren't Harpo?

Where is my book! I don't have your book Harpo I want you to leave. Leave? The book is here I smell it! He grabbed her wrist squeezing take me to it NOW HUMAN.

Ahhhh! Let go of me! Tina punched him in the chest ZIP ZIP! Two short lightening bolts whizzed out the air. Tina looked back to a baby cherub holding a pitch fork AHH! She ducked screaming as another zipped past her the cherub growling choking the man around his neck with a chain

The two cherubs hissed and growled showing sharp baby teeth. Wings flapped fast slapping the man in his head and face. One used the pitch fork sticking and zapping while the other triple wrapped the chain tight around his neck.

The first one zapped the chain with lightening bolts as the intruder wildly swatted at them both. He punched one knocking the baby cherub to the floor the other pulled tighter. He swung as cherub 2 tightened the noose accidently hitting Tina as he struggled for air and freedom blacking her cheek.

With her apartment door wide open a half conscious Tina who fell to her foyer floor hitting a hallway table on the way down; With blurry vision she saw two Harpo's one with blond hair and one without.

She saw the blond haired mean one disappear as fast as he came through her door. One of the growling babies flew over her pointing making loud sounds upset that is when her eyes closed.

Tina woke with ice on her head in Harpo's arms. She jumped please leave. She stood falling back on the bed. You...you grabbed and manhandled me. That was not me is my hair blond sweetie?

He looked on her with doting eyes. Tina looked out her bedroom at her living room wall a burn mark was where a flying baby shot at the blond haired man missing. What or who are you? She slipped her glasses on staring at Harpo clear as if something in the glasses would reveal his unknown truth.

What did that man want Tina? Harpo looked ashamed. First tell me who you are and who that is. That is my brother my twin brother to be exact his name is Eros. Tina grinned you are Harpo and he is Eros? How adorable she tried to straighten her messy appearance.

Harpo inhaled his name is Eros however I possess another name more common to humans such as yourself. What is that she sat sipping hot tea he made her.

My name is Cupid .

Tina sat her tea cup down okay Harpo and Cupid same person one is Greek mythology one Egyptian two cultures one human man right Harpo?

Two cultures one God Tina Harpo stared in her eyes searing with truth and correction. Tina burst out laughing you got me....you got me good Harpo she held his arm chuckling that was a good one.

You ready to eat honey? Hold on the greek have the person Harpo and Eros down as the same person they say Eros was an adult they changed to a child like figure a baby.... a cupid they are one person Harpo.

Tina...sweetie? Yes Harpo? That was the lie my mother had the Greek scribes write to hide from our father that he birthed  a wicked son. Our mother Isis had not the heart to kill Eros in all his wickedness so she allowed him to live. There is Eros and there is Cupid and Cupid am I my dear.

You are saying thee cupid? The one and only Love Deity asked me on a date? Technically I asked you on two dates Tina which the second is going horribly wrong. You are Cupid? She asked trying to wrap her mind around the insane ideology. Yes he chuckled.

If you are Cupid call a cherub. What is that Tina? How can we date of we start with lies? I saw them try and kill Eros. They cannot kill Eros only irritate him make him more angry. He can't kill them because they are his and my children Tina. Haha what?

My father pulled some of the evil out of Eros when he was born. There was a plague in a nearby town children dying of scarlet fever. My father placed the wicked in dead babies. The wickedness bought the dead babies back.

Those babies are what humans call cupid's cherubs Tina. Are they your cherubs? Yes by default they hate Eros no one knows why they love me so my father gave me charge over them. How many are there Harpo? Five my love.

Let me hold one. Hold Tina? Cupid laughed they are old as time they look like cute sweet babies but I assure you they are anything but Tina. Please she clapped.

Cupid inhaled T-hanos Epluribun Euphrim!

The five appeared before her kneeling. Why are they kneeling Cupid?

He grinned they want you to be my Goddess. Tina blushed holding her arms out one crawled up on the bed sitting on her lap look how adorable Cupid.

She squeezed and hugged him kissing his neck the cherub cooed and laughed like an 8 month old infant. The cherub looked at Cupid hissing loud like a snake. Don't get fresh Pienu. That is this one's name? Yes Tina I named them all this is the second in command Pienu.

Pienu cut his eyes at Cupid hugging Tina laying his head on her shoulder as she rubbed his back singing like he was a baby. Tina? Yes Cupid? She giggled at his name. That cupid is a grown man inside way older then you. That's okay she cuddled with what she saw with her eyes.

Cupid took off his shoes turning the TV on it's gonna be a long night he teased.

Pienu....
