My Omega Baby Daddy

Ch. 17

I should've listen to Geana. This is a fucking hike! I need a break.

"Lets not go any further. Your with child. You shouldn't be doing this." Austin insisted. I didn't want to listen.

"No...i can do it." Chris said breathing calmly. "Just let me do this."

"No you can't and I won't let you." Austin raised his voice. It shocked Geana and Chris. He didn't know what to say to that. "Your too stubborn to realized that this isn't a good idea. We're going to rest and once we've rested enough, we're going back down." Austin lead Chris to a near by bench and sat him down.

Geana smiled thinking that the two have already married each other. Austin gave Chris his water bottle. Then he rubbed Chris belly. Which stopped everyone from what they were doing.

".....um.....just wanted to make sure the baby is ok..." Austin said nervously.

"Yeah~ Take your hand off my belly. Please." Chris said.

Austin did so and walked away awkwardly. Geana laugh silently. She was having the time of her laugh.

That was awkward. Chris relaxed his shoulders and felt the salty breeze. It felt good. He turned his head slightly to see the lighthouse. Then spotted a stone podium up ahead.

"Whats that?" Chris asked Greana.

Geana looked and smiled with glee. "Thats the a marker!" She ran up ahead. Austin helped Chris up to catch up with her. Once they all arrived, their was already people their. Some took pictures and others enjoy the view. Chris only realized it now that the stone marker was bigger and well taken care of. Stone benches surround the marker and the floor had a design marble tiles.

"Its like a balcony itself. But where's the temple?" Chris asked.

"A little up top. If you stepback towards the railings, you can kind of spot it. But we can go next time. We don't want to over exhaust you." Geana said. Austin agreed with her. "But this is better anyway. Its super romantic. "

"Romantic?" Chris said confused.

"Some young kids come here to confess their love to eachother and will forever have everlasting love~" Geana said very dramatically.

Chris chuckled at the amusement. Austin blushed a bit. Geana continued.

"Other times couples come here to proposed or have wedding pictures here. Its a love sight. But this place used to be at the lighthouse." She points at the lighthouse. "But it was too dangerous because the tides keep rising wildly. So they cut it off from the public and moved it here.

"They put a marker here to tell tourist the history behind the love sight and the lighthouse. It all started with two lovers..."

Once their were two lovers that loved each other very much. The woman was a beautiful maiden and daughter of a wealthy man. The man was a fisherman who always worked all day in the sea.
These two never crossed path with eachother because of the different social classes they were in. But one day when the woman dropped her hair pin that the man picked it up for her. And thats when love at first sight came to be.
They will always come and see eachother every night and the only way they found eachother was a litted lantern hidden in the mountains. And they protest their love all night until the sun rise.
Her father found out of this love affair and warned her that if she were to go back to him one more time he will immediately cut her off. But love was love, so she went to him and they both married.
They lived happily. But it wasn't for long. When the man had to go fishing, a huge storm came and sunk his ship. The man died at sea never to see his beloved again. The woman grieved his death and cried all around the village. People started to look at her as a crazy woman so they ignored her crying. She stay at the cliff still grieving. Then she decided to do the unthinkable.
She thought that even if her husband died at sea, his soul is forever lost. So to reunite with him at the afterlife she'll had to build a lantern to show his way. But will he see it? How far can he see it? So she decided that it had to be bigger.
She started building all day. All night. Through the hot sun. Through the cold winds. Even when she was sick. She kept building. The villagers first thought that she was crazy but now they were amazed at her determination. They all watched her build. And build. For days. For weeks. For months. For years. Her love gave her strength.
The woman who was once beautiful became old and worn out. But her mission was complete. She built a tower and on top of that tower, a lantern as big as it comes. When night came she light the huge lantern and the light lit like the sun. The woman was relieved it work but sad. The woman became tired. She knew this night would be her last. But she had hope that her beloved would see that light and pass on.
As the woman slowly closed her eyes, she felt her soul leave her body. But once she opened them again she cried with joy. Her beloved came to her. He smiled and kiss her. He missed her so much. As did she.
Finally reunited they both went peacefully to the afterlife.
