I will probably change him like another 6 times but 🤷🏿♀️ ——
I run as far as my feet could carry me into the unfamiliar world of Olympus, blind to its beauty due to my misty eyes. I search aimlessly for a place to cry, far away from Zeus and my mother.
How could she lie to me all these years?
How could she embarrass me in front of everyone?
Not only was she one of the famed Olympians, she was a mistress and lover to Zeus... my father?
My father....is Zeus...
I enter into the humid garden where I had opened gifts earlier and find solace beneath its trees.
"Kore? Kore!" my mother yells for me. I hide in the bushes, desperate to distance myself from her.
I needed my space to think.
My heart paces as she walks closer to where I'm hidden. She only hanged her head with regret and cursed as she realized her foolishness.
She surveyed the garden once more but finally gave up and departed the room to continue her search.
I untangle my dress from the branches and plop onto the soil, weaving my fingers thorough the grass to produce life.
Harvesting always took my mind off of things.

"Hera please!" Zeus's sweaty hands moved to grab Hera's slender waist.
"I told you! I begged you! I said any woman but Demeter! And now, 16 years later, I find out that not only did you lay with her, but also implanted your seed into her body!!" she roars.
"Hera that child is not mine!" he lied, desperate to maintain Hera's peace.
"Even a blinded cyclop can see that child is yours. Your eyes, your lips...your nose...she has everything." she curses.
"It is merely a coincidence" he lied pathetically.
"Demeter was once known to be barren" Hera whispered softly, "did you grant her fertility?" her tears began to flow again.
"Yes"
Her hard slap against his cheek echoed through the quiet room.
"Hera... please" the pathetic god fell to his knees in forgiveness.
"You think you can just cry and beg for my forgiveness and I will take you back? It has worked many times in the past hasn't it" she says under a icy tone.
"Hera. I will never betray you again. I promise"
"Oh mighty Zeus" she chuckled, "do not make a promise I know you cannot keep" she grinned through her tears. She walks over to the mirror in the corner to reapply her gloss and wiped away her tears.
