The Birth Of The Angel
Day Without it
Eros was discharged from the hospital after almost a week of her treatment. His condition is like a living corpse, his body exists but his life is out of nowhere. He's exactly like Aster disappeared for 2 weeks. But now it is more concerning.
His stocky body began to take care of, and was not as healthy as before. The phrase about 'Without you I can't live' is like the thing that really happened to Eros. He had lost his spirit to come back to life.
Eros does not return to her home, she is now being outpatient and living with her parents. He is being monitored for being a patient who is worried about self-harm.
Eros entered his room, his room was on the first floor. The room was clean, no glass or anything harmful. Even the rooms are equipped with CCTV. Eros smiled obliquely, despite all the efforts of his parents. If he refuses to live they can what?
If his world is gone then what is he alive for?
Eros stepped into the bathroom, filling the bathtub with water to the brim. He stared at the bathtub that was starting to fill up, remembering about Aster who used to love soaking in the bathtub until his skin was wrinkled. Eros gave a small smile, she now started crying because she missed Aster so much.
"I'm going to go to your place, baby, so wait for me" said Eros.
He started to get into the bathtub and drown his head, he held his head back to stay in the water. His chest started to cramp and his head was like it was about to break. Over time his consciousness began to disappear. She smiled a little.
"I'm coming, baby" he said in his heart.
...***...
Eros opened his eyes, he was in a white room with no empty ends nothing.
"Is this heaven?" his inner.
"Aster!" shout Eros.
His voice echoed in the room, he walked without direction while shouting Aster's name.
"Aster!"
Eros stopped his steps, he saw the figure of the man in front of him. He ran towards the man.
"Are you an angel? Do you know where I can go to see my wife? She's a very beautiful woman, if you ever meet a very beautiful woman she's the one I'm looking for" Eros told the man.
The man was wearing white silk with gold accessories, his clothes looked like ancient Greek clothes. Eros remembers seeing it in one of his paintings of Ancient Greece.
"Hello master" he said again as the man in front of him did not reply.
The man flipped his body until the two of them faced off. The man had the same height as her but his body was slightly more stocky. But what makes Eros surprised is the face of the man. Exactly like his face.
"Your face." said Eros with a very surprised face.
"Stupid!" that was the first word the man spoke.
"If you die again, then you will never be able to unite with Psyche" said the man.
"The psyche? Who's she?" eros said astonished.
"He's your wife who just died. You are my reincarnation. My love for Psyche was tested by my own mother, Aphrodite. It turns out that even after my rebirth she remains the cause of her child's suffering" the man said.
Eros was astonished, not understanding his meaning.
The man rolled his eyes lazily, "I'll explain" he said
