Magic
Carly's POV
"Carly, this is your destiny." Her voice was so calm.
I looked at her, saying nothing.
"Do you believe in magic?" she asked me with a little bit of joy in her voice.
I wanted to answer her but I didn't know what to say. If she made the same question to me yesterday, I would probably have told her, "No, I don't," without a second thought. But now it was impossible to say that.
"Just tell me what your heart says to you," she said, trying to make the answer easier for me.
I was lost. "I… I honestly don't know."
"Why?" She wasn't surprised with my answer. "We are not living proof of magic to you?"
"Misty-san…"
But what could I say? How could I disagree with her? She was right, after all. Both of us are good evidence. We died, at least once in our lives, and we're still here. But when it comes to death, once is not enough? It should be, but the only problem is that we are still here. Is this some kind of magic? I can't tell for sure; I don't know what to believe anymore. Who am I, or rather, what am I?
I know who I used to be, but my memories have already begun to fade.
I was a reporter girl; I used to write articles on other people's lives. But I never wrote anything about mine. Who would be interested, anyway? My life didn't have anything interesting for someone to read it. I wasn't special, after all. I never felt special; except... there was one guy who changed me; who made me want to change for him and not just that. I wanted to help him more than anything else in my life. I wanted to approach his cold heart, because my own heart fell for him.
This feeling made me want to know more. He pushed me away from him; he told me that it was better for me not to go further into that story. He also said that I would be safe that way, and he was right. But I didn't hear him; I didn't listen to him and I searched more, I went further, and I learned. All this research led me closer to him, but closer to my death as well.
I died –I was murdered, actually. I was killed by Divine but I'm still here. I don't know how this is possible, but it is. I always thought magic was something bad, something evil, something we read about in fairy tales. I'm not sure anymore.
Maybe I live in a fairy tale, but not the ones from the beautiful and good side. I was the monster now, the bad guy, the evil one. The thought made me want to cry but after some seconds, I realized that I was crying already.
"NO!" I cried, hiding my face in my hands. This can't be happening. It can't! I don't want to be the monster!
Misty hugged me, trying to make me feel better. "It's alright. I will take care of you from now on."
And I believed her. After all, she was the only thing that I could tell was real now.
Poor Carly! Great shock for her...
