Cecily bent over and leaned her forehead with Emilia’s, while holding her hands. As she flowed her consciousness into hers, she felt a strong barrier.

‘As I thought a barrier! No wonder she can’t remember someone so precious.’

Strangely, the barrier broke before Cecily even tried to do anything! It was as if someone placed it to fade few memories until the ripe moment.

‘What the hell? Is this a trap? Why place such a weak barrier on someone when…’

Nothing was making sense. Someone places a barrier on one’s memories to avoid that person from remembering certain things. These barriers are often strong and can result to both; the diver and the host to die! Having such a weak barrier which dissolved when a psychic just approached it made no sense! Cecily was worried about Emilia. If I psychic were to cause any trouble during a dive, it can lead to that person being mentally unstable and in the worst case dead! She mustered her courage and decided to do something out of her character.

Cecily always liked to play cool and safe; but the situation was different. If there was 2nd barrier within, did would cause Emilia’s body to strain itself to a point that her mind might break! The more Cecily stay near the 2nd barrier, the more her body will accumulate strain. The only way was to do a flash dive, a way to move through memories and then escape consciousness in a split second! But this method had its own downfall. If in chance there was a barrier, then the moment Cecily hit it; her consciousness would take damage! It was all a gamble.

‘Can’t endure nor cause harm, was it? Well, I must take an extra fee for this.’

Cecily prepared herself, drew the power from crystal and went in straight ahead. She entered Emilia’s ‘Sea of Consciousness’ and was left shocked with its brightness. A person’s sea reflects what the person actually is; and seeing a bright blue sea can only mean that that person is a beautiful person from within. A loving and caring one. But, there was not much time to admire it. She (Cecily) quickly passed the strands of Emilia’s memories. Whenever a person makes a memory, it grew into a strand inside the sea. Those strand looks like tall luminous grass inside a sea. While she had limited time (time doesn’t flow the same in the ‘sea of consciousness’.), it was still better to not waste any.

While she (Cecily) passed through those strands, she closed her eyes to see this person Emilia loved so much. She could feel all the emptiness, sadness and anger brewing inside Emilia as she lived with only a speck of hope that, that person will return. As she went deeper; the anger grew more. Young nobles asking for her hand, saying her to forget him and above all, no one being with her like he did.

‘Who is this person? To make a beauty like Emi (Cecily’s nickname for Emilia) to fall so hard for him; he must really be something.’

As Cecily entered Emilia’s childhood, the grief grew wider. At a time, she (Emilia) was like an empty shell who only cried all day long. Cecily knew she was reaching the truth and tried to straighten herself. She knew which strand that memory was in; as starting from there all the strands blew brighter than any she had seen inside Emilia’s sea. She decided to enter one.

As she entered that strand, she saw herself standing in an unusual garden. While, the garden was beautiful; it was only filled with roses, mostly white rose! Cecily then heard something at the back, and as she turned back, a girl in a blue dress came running from other side of the garden. She had white hair and blue eyes with a pale white skin. It was as if she was a realistic doll. Cecily quickly knew who she was; it was Emilia. Emilia came near her and looked around. It seemed she was searching something/someone. While, Emilia was looking towards the way she came a kid came out of nowhere and pushed her down!

“It isn’t fair! You used magic didn’t you?”

The kid gave a smug look and then sat on her. “There isn’t a rule prohibiting the use of magic, or are you going to cry for losing again,”

“Get off me! Or else I’ll scream for help,”

“Oh… and, what are you going to say to them?”

“I’ll say that you tried to do dirty thing to me,”

“And what dirty things did I do to you,”

“I’ll tell that you tried to kiss…”

Before she could say anything, the boy bent over and kissed her. While it did looked weird, considering that the kid seemed around 8-9 years old, Cecily couldn’t help but blush at such a daring act. While she didn’t saw the kids face, she could tell by a look from back that those two were a perfect couple.

Emilia pushed the kid away. As she tried to get up, Cecily noticed that her (Emilia) skin was bright red. She looked so cute while being embarrassed that Cecily wanted to coddle her.

“What the heck were you doing?”

“Why; what's wrong?”

“Everything is wrong… how could you do that?”

“Come on, don’t get so worked on it. Uncle Fret told me that this was a way to claim your woman.”

Pop! Emilia turned complete red. Cecily on other hand couldn’t stop laughing as she saw such a cute couple flirt!

“Idiot!” Saying so Emilia rushed towards the other end of garden.

“My, my. She really did turned red like a rose. Uncle Fret sure has some interesting books. Maybe, I’ll try that thing in bed next time. It said something of making cute voices.”

Cecily couldn’t laugh anymore. It went from being cute to something off charts really quickly.

‘What the hell did this guy read?’

As she was about to leave, she decided to take a good look at the kid's face. As she went in front of him, she saw a familiar face. But something was off about it. She quickly rushes out of Emilia’s sea and returns to her body.

When a dive takes place, both; the host and diver remain motionless for a while due to the aftereffects. As Cecily woke up, she saw Emilia with her eyes filled with tears. It was night and her sister was dozing in the chair while Emilia and Cecily lay right next to each other.

“Emilia?”

Emilia turned towards Cecily and wiped her tears.

“I’m all right. It’s just that, I finally understand my feelings when I met him today.”

“Who are you talking about?”

Emilia gave a big smile to Cecily and said, “The person I love; Caspar Trindra”
