Chapter 58
'Everything has its on way Seven… or should I call you Knight," a mischievous smile crosses on Helios lips.
From the time that he blurted out those words Seven lost in her thoughts and seems to reminisce about the past, she doesn't even clearly remember and she only sees blur versions of people which make her head hurts. Seven started to rub her temples and Helios immediately run towards her.
'Hey are you feeling okay?" Helios asked as he come and face her. She was pale and started to sweat.
'Hey, you're pale, drink some water and I'll get you to the hospital," he said, and he was about to stand up when Seven suddenly grips his arm and pulls him over.
'Idiot I'm an angel, remember?" she said and calmed down and her color change slowly.
'Oh, right right I am just over dramatic guy," he answered looking shy and get back to his seat.
'Uhm what did you say earlier? Knight?" Seven asked him, looking through his eyes, searching for something.
'Knight? Who said about Knight?" he asked looking confused and Seven can't help not to look at him more doubting to believe on his words. Is she even imagining things again, or she did clearly heard it coming from his mouth? She doesn't know, but base from his expressions he seems to be telling the truth. Seven come for an idea. She can tell if he is telling the truth by seeing the color of his eyes from her vision. She slowly closes her eyes and the time stops and all the people inside the room halt from where they were standing and Helios was just there staring at her oddly.
But she must know the truth. Only by looking at an object from many perspectives do you see its exact shape and dimensions, and truth is the same; which is why only a multidisciplinary approach by the high level generalists will find it?
‘The lies that I fear most are the ones close enough to the truth to pass under the radar, or else the ones that are so big you'd never dream a person could make something like that up. The half truths lead you away from a trust into a closet xenophobia. The big ones are shock and awe, they just root you in fear so your primal brains start doing the thinking,' she thought while looking at him, it was supposed to be a second before he can tell a person if he is telling the truth but this person in front of her is hard to see and why is that.
‘Does the truth imprison us, or does it set us free? One thing we know for sure, the truth can hurt. But why do I have this feeling that I must seek for the truth, why does it affect me so much as soon as I heard that name? Knight? Why does it close to my heart? Why does it call me for my soul? Do I have a soul?' she thought, and she was starting to feel the sweat on her forehead. This was the first time and Helios eyes were piercing as it looks at her. Hopefully, she will see the truth in his eyes and words. Some hear and turn their lives around. Facing the truth about our negative sides is a difficult thing to do.
However, none of us can improve without knowing the truth, even when it hurts. If we learn, the truth really sets us free.
Truth can be a strange notion, for it always relies on perspective.
For truth drill down into your soul, find that lake of pure water that will wash you clean should you truly desire it. Learn who you really are, who you were born to be, and you will be set free. You were born to love, your soul is pure.
'Why is it that hard," she almost breathlessly said, and her vision was almost blurred until she blinks her eyes and everything got to normal and people moved.
Helios was there at the same position looking through her but then again look shocked at Seven's face.
'Hey, why the damn are always losing blood? You look pale? Are you hungry?" he looks at her worriedly and stands up and wave his hand.
'Waiter? Can we get our orders now? My friend here can't wait, she needs to eat now," he shouted and all the people inside the room look at him and without a second they continue chatting with each other. The waiter immediately rushes towards them and asks for an apology.
As soon as their orders arrived Seven can't stop looking at him, it seems to her that she must be afraid of this human, he is not just a human but something, she can feel a kinship towards him but that was impossible.
'What are you thinking? You seem to be in deep thoughts Seven?" he asked not looking her direction, he was way too focused on his food and he must be hungry to shove pasta into his mouth without even munching it.
'I was just thinking about the word truth," she answered while looking at him. She doesn't feel the food anymore.
'Truth is treason in an empire of lies," a deep voice said, and Seven can't help but to look horrified, she roams her eyes into the room and everyone stops at what they are doing and slowly she return her gaze to the person in front of her. Helios was gone and the person in front of her is no other than the master number one of the angels of death.
'Seven, in your age the truths are a fiction, and so I have buried the truth in the fiction. Very neat, I think you'll find. Happy hunting."
