The Birth Of The Angel
Wait around

Time continued to pass, but it was as if only Eros did not walk with time. He remains fixated on the past. A body that is alive but whose soul is left far behind in the past. Eros goes about his day with a workaholic and tends to ignore him. It's been almost two years since Aster disappeared somewhere. His search was also nil no result. Aster's speculation is gone, but Eros knows Aster just doesn't exist on planet Earth. But being in another dimension that Eros cannot reach.

Although his heart was quiet and empty, although everyone always said for Eros to forget Aster and move on.Taoi Eros did not want to, this was the punishment he had to accept. Aster also must have been tormented for two years seeing Eros alongside other women. Although it should continue like this he did not mind, he would wait for Aster until the end of his life.

Today Eros is deliberately not overtime as usual, he will attend the wedding of his best friend, Leon. Yes, the past cannot be changed. Like creating a new variable marriage two years ago still happens. The difference is that Ivory is currently married to Leon instead of her.

Eros is happy for both, in the end Leon finds his beloved girl and Ivory manages to. Eros remembers very well the day she married Ivory, she is grateful that only she remembers her. Ivory's heart would be devastated if time did not turn back.

Though guilt still haunts her, for touching another woman besides Aster. But what happened cannot be changed. He was just trying to accept and correct his mistake.

Eros follows the wedding from beginning to end. He was happy because his two best friends were finally happy. Eros could see the two of them loving each other. And that makes him very grateful. Although his life was a mess, but at least the people around him could feel happiness. That's enough for him.

On the other hand time continues to run in another dimension, only Eros' life goes back in time. While Aster? He had climbed Mount Olympus for how long. It felt like he wanted to die that second as well but couldn't. He wanted to give up but his legs would not stop. The mountain was full of illusions as if it was walking on and had no peaks. Not hungry but very tired. But even though tired legs can not be stopped.

The wind blew hard, the snow fell and the hot heat hit already in the face of Aster. Even though it hurts, he cannot die. Is this one way of penance? Once he's pure and holy God will grant his request? Every now and then Aster sees around there is only a stretch of the sky ocean and the mountain footing that looks wide like not assembling a mountain.

Aster kept walking, until at last the leg stopped as well. He stopped and that very second his body fell. He started closing his eyes. Everything looks blurry and shaded. Is this what death feels like?

Aster smiled faintly, perhaps this was the answer to all his pleas. Perhaps at least though unhappy now Aster can find another happiness after death. He hopes that eventually he will be happy.

"I hope I'm happy, and I can be with Eros again" he muttered, and shortly after, Aster completely closed his eyes.
