Alibaba x Judal

Private Property

Alibaba was looking around Judal's room until he came upon a certain book...

It was locked. With a proper lock at that, not a magic lock or anything. Thankfully for him the lock was pretty old and in the last 3 years that it wasn't used it had become quite weakened.

He just pulled it slightly and the lock came off. Why he was so interested in this book that he went as far as to break a lock? This book was noted with a "Judal's private property" on the side. It was written in a very ugly handwriting. That of one who still hasn't gotten used to writing.

For all he knew this was probably Judal's diary for years. He gulped lowdly before opening the book. Oh how sure he was that Judal would kill him if he ever heard of this. He chuckled at the thought though.

"Here, I will write my secrets! I won't let anyone see!"

The book begun off in such a tone. The date was 17 years in the past... So he was 6 when he started this...

"I wonder why I have to learn more about magic...? Being a magi is quite tiring apparently... But... what I find strange is that Gyokuen's rukh resemble those of a magi too... Maybe it is just my imagination but they are flooding a lot to her... And she is really strong too..."

Alibaba kept turning the pages... Some wrote about uneventful boring days... other pages are blank with a hint of erasure... did he erase them himself...? Maybe the days of the first Sindria's destruction? From what he had heard of Judal the dates were appropriate for that.

"He must have been very sad about those events, eh... Who makes such a little kid do such things anyway..."

The tone of the diary was only getting more depressing as the dates went on...

He was suffering... A lot... when he became a teenager... the age of rebellion... That was when his conscience started acting up... It was quite obvious from the records in his diary.

"Why is it that I end up crying at night...? Why do I feel like everything I have done so far are wrong...? All I have achieved so far... as a magi... am I really doing the right thing...?"

He was suffering... all alone... in this confinement... This book was probably his only way out... He never asked for help... He held everything in...

Later on, as it seems, he pushed all the doubts into the back of his mind. That was when he stopped writing in here.

There was a big timespace before the next record... The next record came some days after he would met with Aladdin.

"I met a magi some days ago... he showed me something dreadful... Al Thamen murdered my parents... What should I do...? I have to take revenge... No I can't... I can't beat Gyokuen...I have to run away... I am afraid... they will find me again and again... someone... anyone help me..."

Tears begun drifting down Alibaba's face...

"He was all alone... Even when he hurt all those people... he was always hurting more than anyone... Why.... why did he have to go through all that alone...!?"

He fell down on the bed with the book on his side. He couldn't stop himself from sobbing... he couldn't bare to read anymore... but at the same time, he had to know... Judal would never tell him anything of these... he had to learn it all on his own so he can help him when he sees him again...

He gulped loudly again and after sitting up proceeded reading...

To be continued....
