Fleeting Reverie

< Reverie (Noun) : "state of being pleasantly lost in one's thoughts; a daydream.">

You often dreamed of silly things. Turning into a bird, a squirrel, or even a boy. Sometimes, you often imagine you and your mother joining the royal family, living a life of luxury. After all, aren't those kinds of dreams a fitting ending of a reincarnated person like you?

What a load of nonsense!

But truly, all you ever wanted was a happy life with your beloved mother. The one who healed your heart that are broken in your past life. Your kind and beautiful mother, whom you adored and put on a pedestal.

If someone told you this was a fairytale, you might have believed them. After all, your mother's beauty rivaled the princesses in storybooks.

So why... why did her story end like this?

Everything was fine. You were fine. You lived as her precious, dutiful daughter. Then, in a heartbeat, the gods above snatched her away, leaving you alone to mend your opened wounds of lonliness.

Now, you find yourself trapped as the illegitimate child of a rotten royal family.

Once, you dreamed of being here. But not like this. Not without her.

How will you escape this cruel reality? How will you meet your mother again? Because perhaps, somewhere in your dreams, you'll find her. Waiting for you to come back to her warmth embrace.
