CUPID is In Love!

A T H E N A's POV

"Ah! Look!" I said, I walks towards the vendor and Hermes followed me.

"Good morning, Ma'am." The vendor said, and smiled at me.

"Good morning, Mister. What are you selling?" I asked, and smiled back.

"I sell Ice Cream. Do you want?" He said.

"Really? For free?" I asked, and feel amazed.

"Yes." He answered, he nod his head and gave me an Ice Cream.

"Thank you, you're such a good person." I answered, I grab the Ice Cream and taste it.

"Hmmm.. It's flavourful!" I blurted, and chuckles.

"Hermes, taste it." I said, and hermes taste my Ice Cream.

"What a cute Love Birds." The vendor said, and chuckled.

"Love Birds? But.. we're not a bird." Hermes answered.

"No, that's not what I mean. In this world, we called the sweet couples as Love Birds." The vendor replied.

"Aaaaaah.." Hermes and I said, while nodding our head.

"What planet are you from?" The vendor said, and smiled awkwardly on us. Hermes and I looked at each other, and starts to laugh.

"Forget it, we're just crazy. Don't mind us." I replied, I fake a smile and grab's Hermes hand.

"Lets go." I whispered, and starts to walk faster.

"Thank you, for the Ice Cream!" I shouted, and smiled at the vendor.

"Hmmm... Look! Wow, what a huge building." I said, and pats hermes shoulder. While eating an Ice Cream.

"And there are many people going inside. I wanna see what's inside too. Lets go." He said, he grab my hand and we starts to run 'till we reached the building.

"Wait! There's a guard." I said, and we stopped from running while I'm hiding behind his back.

"Maybe he is Evanora's guard. Maybe he came here to take and bring us to her." Hermes said, and I nods my head.

"You're right. What should we do?" I said.

"I will not let him take us! Aaaaaarrrrrgh!" He said and runs toward the guard.

"Hermes!" I shouted, and followed him.

"Are you one of the guards of Evanora? Tell me!" He said, while pinning the guard.

"S-sir, you must be m-mistaken." The guard replied.

"No. I am not mistaken, you should be punished!" He replied.

"Hermes, stop it!" I said, and grab his hand.

"I'm sorry, he's just crazy." I said, and chuckled while helping the guard to stand. People around us stopped from walking, they're looking at us and kept on murmuring.

"It's alright, ma'am." He answered.

"Can you tell me what is this place?" I asked.

"This is the mall, ma'am. It's filled with shops, there's a playground on the 2nd floor too." He replied.

"Ah! Is there a food shops too?" I asked, and feeling excite.

"Yes, just walk straight ahead. And you'll see it." He said, and smiled at me.

"Oh. Thank you, you're so kind." I replied, and smiled back.

"Let's go." I whispered, while grabbing Hermes hand. He's pointing his fingers eye to eye on the guard.

"Stop it!" I said, and punch his shoulder.

"Ow!" He replied.

"This place is awesome! Oh! There's a food store, let's go inside." I said, while feeling amazed. I grab his hand to look for the food store menu.

"Awe, it's already crowded by people. I think we need to fall in line." I said, and walks towards the people who lined up.

"Uhm, excuse me. May I ask you something? Is this the line?" I asked the child.

"Yes, it is." He answered.

"Thank you so much." I replied, and smiled at him.

"You're pretty." He said.

"Oh, thank you." I answered, and chuckled.

"If I grown up, I will gonna court you." He said, and winked at me.

"Awe, that's sweet." I answered again.

"Hey kid, she's mine." Hermes said, I shove my elbow on his stomach.

"What? It's true." He answered.

"Then I'll find someone who's pretty like her." The kid answered.

"Better." Hermes replied, and focus his attention on the line.

"Hermes! Athena!" Someone shouted, I looked for it's voice and I saw Eros running towards us.

"Eros!" I shouted, and we runs towards him. He opened his arms whiles smiling, we hugged each other as he hugged my tightly and kissed my forehead.

"Eros!" Hermes shouted, and they hugged each other tightly.

"I thought, we will never gonna see you again man." Hermes said, while smiling.

"Is that even possible? As long as I'm alive, you still can find me." Eros answered, and we both chuckled.

"So, how's mother. Is she alright?" He asked, but we stopped from smiling.

"Eros, the reason why we're here, is because your mother told us to find you. So you can come with us and beat your wicked aunty, Evanora. She got the throne." I explained, and looked at him seriously.

"What? What about mother? Where is she? Is she alright? Did she eat at the right time?" He asked in worried.

"Eros, relaxed. Evanora got her and put her on the dungeon, but we help her to escape. She said, you know where to find her." Hermes replied.

"Garden of Eden. She's in her secret healing place, were no one can find her but me. I'm glad she's fine." I answered, and took a sigh.

"It is said that Nepthys, the goddess of protection are living on that place with the fairies?" I said.

"Yes, it's her friend." He answered.

"Huh? Who are they!" I said, and hide at Hermes back as he grab his sword and point it to the three women.
