《Nekana, One in Billions, Lost.》Chapter 13 - Scratching the Surface
Advertisement
Nekana often thought herself as a rather curious person. Ever since a developing age where one was always asking. Her questions however, lied more at the scientific side and was answered soon enough through textbook, Internet and human means. There were some things however, that no matter how much she pondered and asked of it the answers would be almost impossible to find or non-existent in the first place.
Protagonists from novels or books she read (be it online or in real life) all had one common flaw that was found. Obviously, that was curiosity. This flaw of theirs mostly brought their noses into where they shouldn't or wouldn't get their noses to. It brought unwanted attention and situations. It is known that it is the second most troublesome thing after compassion. But in the end, the pieces would be put together, making so much sense that was unforeseen from a few or many chapters back; The casualties and unbecomings were often none at all or kept at a bare minimum.
Nekana, on the other hand, did agree that such adventures were tempting. But, this was reality. It was known all around, that wherever you would go, whenever the timing, sometimes putting your nose in where it doesn't belong wasn't the best of ideas. Well, that covers the majority of the time.
The brunette was curious. True. But not to the point whereupon she'll get in trouble and become the very founder of her own grave. She feared that that the funeral flowers brought may be ones she disliked after all. Occasionally, questions regarding the unconcerned may pop into her mind, it had nothing to do with her but was a mere 'what if' shed stumbled upon.
'What if' she died?
Now, hold your horses, donkeys, mythical dragons or salamanders, even the great phoenixes your'e on. Nekana was not depressed, suicidal or maybe even one that has experienced only the greatest hell on earth existing. The brunette was sure, correction, somewhat sure that among the billions of people on earth, they should've questioned this to themselves at least once. Portions of them, including Nekana knew that it was not because they seek it, or found salvation in it but merely for the cause of asking 'just WHAT lies BEYOND it?' It was for that kind of reason. Nothing less but chances of something more.

For those with precious loved ones they wanted to know or maybe ask, even if it's to themselves: how would they react?
Will they drown in sorrow and grief?
Will they have time flow as it will?
Will they be happy maybe? Is it the latter or the former 2. She were curious and wanted to know.
And then the brunette asked herself, she meant it as a joke, but what about the suicidal? The depressed? The one that seen only hell all that persons or being's life? Will they curse, scorn her to be even be able the luxury of such thoughts? She who could take their ever so serious matter so lightly. It wasn't even as if they would've wanted such a life.
Curiosity had killed many animals (not just cats) and through it there too was many salvations occurring or invented. It was human nature, and a somewhat good kind. It was undeniably a double-edged sword. The brunette won't pry any further.
Nekana projected herself floating, sinking maybe in a deep dark abyss with no platform in sight. Her thinking area, in other words. Nonetheless, after a few ponders she then put the subject down and resumed her daily activities. The 'flow' she claimed.
And she sighed.

But when Thalia's Parents aren't who they said they were Thalia will have to forget about the world she's always known and learn how to live in a new one. Not only will she have to discover new creatures and beings, but she will also have to learn to live life like royalty. But what does her Mystery girl have to do with this?! ******** "Trust me, I understand the emotional dilemma you're going through. For the longest time, I wondered why all these people had to die and why I had to be a part of this battle. But now I realize that the best thing I can do for these people is help lay their souls to rest by ending this battle. So that their families and future generations won't have to go through this too." I look at her, noticing the downtrodden expression on her face before she looks up at me and smiles, trying to mask her pain. But she couldn't mask it. Because I had already seen it. And for the first time, I recognize how alike we truly are. Of course, I've noticed how guarded she was with her emotions but that could've been for a multitude of reasons. But now that I've seen this side of her I can't help but think that maybe she's just as lonely as I am. I reach out and silently link my pinky finger with hers trying to show comfort in a subtle way. I want her to know that if no one else will be, I'll always stand by her side. [Participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]
