All the awaiting paid off well. The time had a very sweet away to make things look even better. Her Fiery hair was longer, and now finally free from the strange ties girls used these days, It’s was like a fire crown over her head. It’s almost impossible not play with her tine curls. Those mesmerizing eyes that once were full of fear now exhibited pride, love and the unique wisdom that only those who waltzed with Death could display.
 He took a seat by the small coffee table, watching the girl sleep. ‘This couch can’t be comfortable.’ He looked up to the stairs, he knew why she was down here ‘ Some wounds never truly heal”.

-Shadow..- the girl talked in her sleep. Oh… how much he missed her voice.- Is that you ?-

The dark figure double checked if she was sleeping. – I missed you Sparkle.- she smiled to him. He knew that wherever his heart was, it was beating fast with joy.

-I missed you too!- her sleeping face was frowning to him- Are you real ? The people with important names told me that you are just a creation of my head.

He didn’t hold his own chuckle. – Reality is as frail as a crystal glass my Little Sparkle. As long as you believe, I am real …- her smell was so good, so pure, so clean, so vulnerable.

-I don’t know what to believe.- she changed position. – I am scared right now. But I don’t wanna  be alone again.  

- I’ll be here Sparkle, even when you don’t see me, I’ll be there.

-Like my own stalker?- she joked in her slumber.

-Something like that.- she was smiling again.- Sparkle, do you remember our promise?- she didn’t remember it and he knew.

- Sorry Shadow. I can’t organize the memories about you. – He was surprised. She didn’t lied to him.  ‘Good Girl’- Can you tell me what it was?

-Is not that simple Little One.- she frown confused – But I’ll do the best I  can to help you remember it.

-Thanks Shadow. Of all things they told me to try and forget about. You are the only thing I don’t want to let go.  

This was a painful task for him, and Milla wasn’t about to make it any easier. ‘ Danm it I wanna hold her.’ – Here is your first Task.

‘By the rise of Novembers first full moon. The Unforgiving will cross the bridge under Dark River, craving innocent blood.  And that was the first lie‘

It was time for him to leave her, for now. The sun was rising and soon his Little Sparkle would awake.- Tik-Tak Sparkle. Tik—he leaned over her ear- Tak.
