Akhwale (From the afterlife diary)

My heart was at peace until Misiko showed up. Pain blurred my eyes, but as Misiko nursed me back to health, I started noticing features that got stuck in my head. How much pain did I have initially to have missed out on this striking god. He was no doubt the brother to Apollo. 

With time, I started looking forward to his arrival. His presence warmed my being, soft spoken with an infectious smile. The sound from him would numb the strongest of pain. Tall, well built, a feature that would have a broken necked woman turn to have a better look. 

Here I was pleading with my heart to behave. It was no time and place to misbehave. For once, I pleaded day and night for the heart to allow the head to lead. Even now I pray the heart won’t rebel.

But the heavens know I am falling.
