Can A Museum Solve Your Problems?

Decisions

After just sitting in silence for a few minutes, I spoke up.

"Are you sure that I am who you want?" I asked, without looking at Ahkmenrah. "I want you to be sure about it. I don't want you to make a drastic decision without thought."

"Arcadia my love, I am completely sure. You are who I want to spend my eternity with." Ahkmenrah explained. He took a hold of my hands and made me look at him. I nodded my head. He wouldn't lie to me. "Are you sure that it is I whom you want to share your life with?"

"Of course Ahk. I love you. I wouldn't want to be with anyone else."

"Then let's discuss the next step."

"Alright, you talk first." I smiled at Ahkmenrah. I needed to hear his words, not him just agree with me.

"I want us to be humans, alive humans. I would like to be brought to life and so I can be everything you need to be. I want more than one lifetime with you though. I want us to be everlasting, like my parents." Ahkmenrah explained. I nodded my head and just listening to him. It was exactly what I wanted as well.

"I agree 100% Ahkmenrah." I said, with a huge smile. "I want to remain human, you come to life again but still be able to live forever with your parents. I don't want to take you from your parents." I explained, happily.

"Now that we agree, let's go tell my father." Ahkmenrah suggested. We got back to the Egypt exhibit quickly. We were both clearly excited and wanted to get answers from Merenkahre since we didn't know if any of what Ahkmenrah and I discussed was really possibly.

"Have you two reached a decision?" Merenkahre questioned. We nodded our heads and Ahkmenrah explained everything. Merenkahre had no comment, so it made me really nervous.

"Is any of it really possible though? Is it too much to ask?" I questioned nervously. Merenkahre thought for a few moments before replying.

"It may be possible. I need to speak with the tablet and Gods though." Merenkahre responded. I nodded my head and watched him get the tablet. He spoke in Egyptian to the tablet. Ahkmenrah told me that his father was asking about what they talked about. He told me that only Merenkahre would hear the response. Once Merenkahre's talking was over, he turned to Ahkmenrah and me. Shepseheret put the tablet back where it goes. "Ahkmenrah, Arcadia, the tablet and gods have agreed. The tablet will do as you wish if it is truly what Ahkmenrah wants."

"It is." Ahkmenrah said, confidently.

"So be it. The change will happen on the next full moon."

"That's in two nights." I informed the three Egyptians.

"Then the change shall happen in two nights." Merenkahre says officially.

"Do you three want me to leave now? So you can enjoy your time together?" I asked, nervous but curiously.
