Chapter 13: Plant a Wall
The sun shines outside and some of the snow was melting from trees turning to water drops. The sun rays went into the room and hit Jack Overland's face. He can hear laughter from afar and noticed the happy, little voices. The voice of her sweet little sister and the weird boy that he met yesterday,Jef, but became a really good help. And there's something missing, he thought.
He still felt giddy and nauseated, but a lot better than last night. Then he saw someone's shadow passed by. He widened his eyes and remembered the white haired maiden, the guardian angel. He quickly went out of bed and lost his balance.
"(F/n)…" whispered Jack.
"Be careful dear." Said a woman's voice. It's her mother. Jack looked up and saw her grinning at him sweetly. "Here, sit down." Said her mother thoughtfully and sat.
The young guardian obeyed and her mother gave him a hot soup to make him feel better. No one spoke for a minute until Jack's mother checked the boy's temperature.
"How did you find me last night Jack?" asked his mother and brushed his sleek, yet, messy brown hair.
Jack tried to remember and he can't really say what happened. He can't tell her dear mother that a guardian angel told him and guided him to her. So when he heard Jef's voice, an idea popped in his head.
"The… the boy saw you lying- unconscious in the snow last night and found our home." Reasoned the winter spirit, "He said that a woman's alone in the forest. "I didn't hesitate and I followed the boy and found you." He added hoping that Jef didn't tell to her mom anything yet.
Her mother smiled heartily and hugged her son tightly. "Oh Jack… I don't know what happened if you didn't find me." She said and sobbed quietly.
The young guardian comforted his mom and said that it's alright the important thing was that no one got hurt. Jack's mother left him alone the room to give him space. He sighed in relief and wiped his face as he looked outside the window.
Jack stood up and walked closer to it. He opened the window and let the frigid wind enter the room. He gazed here and there, searching for you and hoped that he can see you again. He's not really sure why he wants to see you and talk, he just knew it.
"Looking for me?" a voice suddenly rose and Jack jumped and bumped his head on the top of the window.
"Ouch!" shouted the winter spirit and touched his aching head gently.
You covered your mouth with your both hands and walked to the young guardian. "Are you ok?" you asked and gave a light laugh.
"Yeah… sort of…" he murmured and stared at the ground avoiding your dazzling light blue eyes.
You giggled and kissed the teen's head. His eyes widened and he stood frozen. You too can't believe that you did that, maybe because you're used to it when he KNEW you. You cleared your throat and apologized bashfully.
"No, no… it's… alright…" responded Jack timidly. "It… eased the pain somehow." He added.
Your cheeks turned red and stepped back from him. You kept telling yourself that you must stay away from him as much as possible but you can't help it. You've been together for a century, how can you stay away from him without a warning?
"So… I want to say… thank you for last night…" Said Jack that broke the silence still staring at the wooden floor.
"Don't mention it…" you whispered and looked down as well. "You won't be thanking me soon…" you thought, remembering your duty. Not actually duty... More like a punishment.
