Owls:
Chapter1
The world had never seemed so quiet, as his footsteps echoed beneath him. The stroll down the park was a rewarding distraction from his busy post in Orb. The cool tropical breeze brushed through his midnight-blue hair, while he listen to the birds sing, watching families and friends relaxing in this little green area. When suddenly, he felt he was being watched. Cautiously, he turned his head. An owl, huge indigo eyes framed by blue-gray feathers, caught him in its silent, soft gaze. It was perched on a tree behind him, partially hidden by the shadows. He took another look at it, then turned and left, not realizing the pair of indigo eyes following him.
A few groceries after a walk had always been a norm. Despite having servants or errant runners for that, he still enjoyed getting his own groceries, just like the days when he'd get whole dried pepper for his mother's soup…
A potato fell out of his grocery bag. Picking up the vegetable, he noticed something staring at him from the glass door's reflection. A huge gray owl with emerald green eyes was aiming him an unfaltering stare. Like a proud king, it stood still and steady on top of the lamp post directly opposite of him, its face carried a fierce, strict expression. An expression that he thought looked familiar.
Surprisingly, the fierce-looking gray owl was soon joined by a blue-gray owl, the one that he saw at the park. He figured that the two owls must be a pair, mates. But isn't it strange to have them so transfixed on me? Don't they ook familiar? Then again, he brushed it off as mere imagination, as he continued his walk back to the Attha Estate. Not noticing the lingering gaze of the owls on him.
"Our Athrun… our dearest beloved son…"
"Yes, Lenore … He made me realize my own mistakes…I…"
"He has forgiven you, Patrick. I'm sure he has…"
A light gust of wind scattered a few dried leaves, as one could hear it whispered 'We'll always be there for you, Athrun…'
Some believed that owls are the souls of the dead, who came back to visit their living kin.
