Rem's Apple
No, I'm not human. But I have addictions, tendencies, likes and dislikes. And- no those don't have to be human traits because all living things possess them. But as Ryuk loved apples, I too had something treasured beyond compare. I feel almost silly comparing a human to a fruit, but that was just it. My connection with Misa had no limits; there was no stop in the road. It was only endless devotion and I almost hated myself for it. Gelus loved her and I had taken it upon myself to be her protector and guardian. I never expected to develop feelings myself. Gradually, everything about her slowly began enchanting me. Walking for her was like an angel on clouds, easy and care-free. With every step she bounced on her toes.
I watched her as she went through town and my gaze did not part. Soft and blond hair, captivating blue eyes, pale creamy skin. The words from her lips, the blush on her cheeks⦠even her own feelings I treasured for myself. The emotions she felt for Light made me feel just how left out I really was from her. It was only a one sided love. It was unrequited, but I should have expected no different. I was a mere pawn in the game, and now I have disappeared from existence forever. I hope that, however significant my move on the board was, she realizes my feelings⦠after all; I had only lived for her.
