Chapter 68
[A/N: I finally found 15 minutes free! Yaay! So what better utilization than to write. I am so sorry that I won't be giving you any TATM before going. The thing is, I have an exam on this Sunday. So, I need to catch up a little on studies too before I go.]

Sweat bullets were making their way down his forehead, and he really didn't want to see her right now.
She looked at his face, and broke out of her trance it seemed. She realized he must have become so afraid. After all, these mortals were the same when it came to end of their baseless lives. They just couldn't accept that it was nature's cycle. That it was all All-Fathers doing. But hey, who was she to judge?
"Now Now, My Precious. Please Calm down." She soothed him, gently caressing her hand on top of his.
"I never said that you were dying in a short interval of time..." She continued, "I Just said that all mortals meet their end, and you are no exception to that fact."
She smiled at him now, judging by his eyes that he finally understood.

"Then, What are you?"
