::Andromeda's POV::

After we left the ballroom, he led me down a hall I hadn't been to before. We stopped in front of a milk brown door.

Jahseh stood in front of it like he didn't wanna go in.

"Change your mind?" I ask, breaking the silence.

"Take a step back." He said, out of nowhere.

"What?"

"Take a step back." He repeated. I stepped back and he flicked his hand, telling me to step back again. I stepped back until he told me to stop. "Stay right there." He disappeared in the room, but came out a few seconds later. I started eating the icing from my cupcake. He got behind me and put his hands over my eyes.

"Oh, a surprise?" I used the wall as a guide until I felt the door frame. He took his left from over my eyes, but covered both my eyes with his right hand. He held my left hand from behind so I didn't walk into anything.

"Netherrack to Netherrack, I know you'll like this." He said and then took his hand from my eyes, revealing the most beautiful room I'd ever seen.

"NO WAY!" I shouted. "Oh my God, Jahseh this is beautiful!" I couldn't believe it. I tried to take it all in at once, but it was too much beauty. It began to feel like I was floating through space. With every step I took, I began to feel more and more like a rogue planet, drifting past Jupiter to Saturn to my favorite, Neptune. I looked at all the stars and it felt so real, I wanted to reach out and touch them.

"I knew you'd like it." Jahseh said, bringing me back from Neptune to Earth. But I started drifting away into the cosmos again. Jahseh started to look like a rogue planet as well, sailing through the universe. It reminded me of how birds in love fly around each other in the sky, and there we were, drifting off with each other in space.

I circled the room at least twice more before Jahseh and I crossed paths.

"This room kinda puts how small we are into perspective. I wonder why we as people fight, why do we bear ill intent against our own kind? Why do we hate one another based on skin and ethnicity, why we bash each other for weight and height... we are but a blimp in time. When you think about it, none of it matters. In this universe... I am one person, on one planet, in one solar system, in one galaxy out of millions. The tiny things we deem as important are so insignificant..."

"You are very well spoken. And I agree." Jahseh said after I trailed off. "I want to tell you something." He said, which caught my attention. I faced him as I finished my cupcake. "I feel like I destroy everything I come in contact with and I don't wanna destroy you. And I don't wanna hurt anymore than I already do."

"You won't destroy me." I said with a small smile. "I trust that. And look," I grabbed his hand and put it over my heart. "I am gentle. I can already sense pain in you, Jahseh. If anything, I'd want to help make it better." I kept his hand there for a little while longer before I let it go. I wanted him to feel that I really only had good intentions.
