This Life Will Be My Last

Chapter 20 - 'Heine and Sisi' {part 1}

The large bird flew straight to a nearby mountain. It skimmed the trees until it found a suitable outcrop, which was already occupied with a flock of birds, and landed there. The appearance of the large bird sent the other smaller birds scattering, and the large bird perched itself on a rock in the open space.

The master stood there. His arms out open as he receives the bird that then perches itself on top of his arm. Reaching Down, the man let out a small chuckle as he read the letter that he had received. There Was no doubt in my mind that it wasn't the Same person that received the letter before, due to the roses that were at the bottom of the letter, hand-drawn no doubt.

“....”

“Ah..”

“Where did my little pet go”

The man let out a small chuckle before he then looked at the letter on its talon, noting how delicately it was tied onto the foot as if not Wanting to cause pain to the animal. Someone who cares for people deeply, must have tied this ribbon.

From the first time I saw this woman in my first lifetime around 500 years ago, I knew I'd encounter her again… Is this it? If it's the same person that we should both be under the moral laws of the God's that we should obey. After All? They were the ones who put me in this position or us.

“Hah”

“Stupid - The Divine wouldn't Do this to us”

The man, Muttered under his breath as some memories flashed before His eyes, A woman with the same appearance as The Crown Princess before his eyes, glistening like the golden sun that shone over the hot and blazing land. The one vow that they both decided to make eachother.

“We will find each other in another life right?” The woman muttered As she looked at him lovingly

“Yes - of course ewe will my dear” The man said back to her, slightly pecking her cheek with a small kiss

“Oh! Heinrey”

“We don't have To vow to each other, You know we will meet again!” The woman chuckled slightly as she held the man's face with her hands gently as she looked up at the loving and caring Gaze he had when he looked at her.

“Our fate, It's always going to drive us together”

The woman paused for a moment before she then looked up at the man as she said his name softly.

“Right? Heinrey?”

“Yes of course, how could you ever be wrong.. Amalia” The man said to the woman as he looked at her, Before gently removing her hands from his face.

Oh - How could fate be so cruel? We were destined to be together and that woman got taken away from me.
We Were like two pairs of lovebirds, one sang while the other watched and listened in awe at the first bird.

“Amalia Phia Von Jinyi” Heinrey whispered, the name now seeming quite foreign to him as he looked at the etching of the name ‘Sisi’ on the paper - the Same handwriting That his love had written 500 years ago.

“Why is it that?”

“One of us dies consistently and the other has to live in constant torture searching for the missing half”

Heinrey, slightly stomping his foot on the floor in the snow as he observed the letter with a candle as he cradled It near his heart, a tear slightly leaving one of his eyes as the realisation of him finally finding his missing half after centuries of years hitting him.

Glancing, at the mark on the inner corner Of his left wrist that had a moon symbol with an hourglass of time behind it that was etched into his skin, the golden sand of time slightly glowing in the dim light of the mountains.
