Destiny

CHAPTER 17

Freya had had a stressful week, so stressful even Ethan's lessons weren't as interesting anymore.
Why?
She was worried, so worried about Evan , the visions she had from him kept plaguing her with nightmares, especially that weird king. She could swear she almost saw him once, almost, and even from that vague point of view, he was oddly familiar.

That thought kept bugging her, how could she know someone like that, so full of hate and sadness, someone so twisted, to the point of lifelessness, just a shell.

She just couldn't shake of the weird feeling.

Deep in thought as usual, she was rudely interrupted from her nightmarish daydream by someone other than Gwen , it was a weird sight. . The girls president herself it was , in her dorm, glaring down at her, she looked on sheepishly only managing a

" Eeerh ...hi?"

The girls president took a few minutes to breath away her obvious annoyance

" You are wanted by the Principal, you'd better hurry" she said as calmly as she could

"Wait what? How come you are the one telling me this?" She asked confused

She could tell by the look on Kayla's face, she'd hit a nerve

" Well if you stayed, at one place, all this while , the whole school would not be searching for you now, neither would I be disturbed from my beauty sleep to come in search of a thing like you!" She snapped.

"Really? Why?, how did you find me then, only Gwen knows of this place" she asked bewildered

"I'm the girls president, I'm supposed to know, now stop asking stupid questions and get going, it seems really urgent" she replied

Freya sighed loudly, she hoped she was not in trouble, she had enough in her plate as it was

" I hope you are in trouble" Kayla replied coolly while exiting.

Freya grimaced as she followed.

They went to the principal's office only to be redirected to her abode, okay the situation was getting weirder by the second.

The principal met her at the door, grabbing her hands like her life depended on it.

" You have to help him, please, you need to save him" she choked, tears unending, rolling down.

Okay now she was lost, totally.

#
Turned out she was talking about her son, who had been sick for like forever. Apparently had been asking for her lately, to the point he now refused medication. His joke had taken a wrong turn , and now he was dieing, but still stubbornly refused to take it.

Only Freya could save him now, or so they thought.

Freya was led to his beside, where he lay asleep, so pale, she wouldn't have been surprised if he was pronounced dead the next minute, but she still sat by him, waiting for him to wake. She fell asleep a few times, soon curiosity got the better and caused her to touch him. Just a light tap , but that woke him, like he'd been waiting for it all along.

But then with the opening of his eyes came the unexpected, the principal's son was said to have inherited his mothers eyes, deep rich brownness , it almost looked black.

But these, these were blue, blues she was sure she'd seen before, blues she'd been worried sick about, this was not the principal's son, it was Evan.

" What happened? " was all she could think of

"I don't know , it was empty when I got here, he was already dead" he managed before entering into a fitful cough

She gave him some water while patting his back gently,

" How come you are like this?" She asked again

" Its his body, its too weak, but I'm sure I can heal, you can heal me, can't you?" He asked looking deeply into her eyes, telling her she was his last hope.

" I'll try" was all she could say

Heading home now, deep in thought, her life had gotten so much more complicated than she could handle, could she save him?, what if he died too? How was she supposed to tell the principal that wasn't her son? How would she combine, babysitting Evan, with her studies, and her time with Ethan.

Throwing her hands up in the air, she only closely managed to stop herself from hitting someone, clutching her rebellious hand tightly to her, she managed an embarrassed smile as she apologized

" I'm sorry, I almost didn't see you there"

He looked at her weirdly, she looked at him too, he seemed in his early 30's , quite handsome with oddly old fashioned taste, everything looked to be from the 80's, or older ,she wasn't sure.

" You can see me?" He finally asked

" Err , yeah" she replied with a look that said "duh"

Getting uncomfortable by his weird stare, she decided to leave.

" I better get going now, sorry once again" she said hurrying off.

" Wait!" He called out.

She halted and turned to him, looking at him expectantly

" I'm Gavin,What's your name?" He asked

"Freya" she answered and turned to leave, but stopped again.

" Just out of curiosity, why wasn't I supposed to see you?"

He smiled this time
" Cause I'm a ghost" he answered, disappearing into thin air.
