"Thinking is difficult. That is why most people judge." - Carl Jung ******************************* Heaven had a bad feeling. Irene would do anything for her children, and Zarin was her child as much as she was. She didn't like the look in her eyes. Her grandmother had always been calm and very careful with her actions. She hoped she had a plan and wasn't acting on emotion. "What are you planning to do?" Heaven asked worriedly. "I'll talk to him." She said. Heaven tilted her head to one…

" Fear does not stop death. It stops life." - Unknown. ********************* Heaven woke up as soon as the sunlight peeked through the window. Yawning, she stretched in bed. Her muscles felt better today, which she was thankful for because she had a lot to do. She couldn't let fear make her weak and stop her from living her everyday life and being productive. She glanced at Zamiel, who he was sleeping next to her. He made minimalistic movements when asleep; she realized. Even his breathing was…

"If you can't be kind, be quiet." *********************** Zamiel had been busy the whole day taking care of and expand his business. He had to make a name for himself so he could be someone worthy of marrying a princess. A princess had to marry a man of either wealth, status, or both. She couldn't marry a common man. Establishing a business wasn't difficult, but he had to find trustworthy people to work for him. The trading of his items had already reached other kingdoms, and now he needed more…

"Do what you feel in your heart to be right, for you will be criticized anyway." **************** Heaven just lay still in bed for a moment, her body left in utter bliss. She could feel the sparks of pleasure going through her body, and her legs were still trembling slightly. How could she feel like this just from being touched? The ceiling seemed to sway as she stared at it, while catching her breath. Her heart was beating fast and loud in the silent room, as if she had been chased by…
-
"You can't be wise and in love at the same time." ******************* After Zarin went back to his new life with the devil, Heaven was left confused and disappointed. She felt lost, angry and sad. The heavy feeling in her chest and the sickness in her stomach returned. She could barely eat at dinner because her body refused to let the food in. She felt ill just looking at everything served on the table. Forcing herself to eat a little, she just longed for her bed. Her eyelids felt heavy, her mind…

"If you don't like where you are. MOVE. You are not a tree." ******************** Heaven shouldn't have eavesdropped. Now, after knowing why Zarin went to stay with her grandfather, the sickness and nausea she felt hit her ten times harder than before. She could barely breathe or stand on her legs, so she crouched, focusing on her breathing while she listened to the rest of the conversation. Both Klara and Roshan felt ashamed and guilty as they spoke to her parents. Klara's sad voice went straight…
-
"People will hurt you, then act like you hurt them." ******************** Roshan was just on his way out from the room when Klara walked in with tears in her eyes. "He left." She said crying. Roshan wasn't surprised, and after thinking the whole night he came to the decision to let his son go if he wanted to leave. It wasn't easy to come to that decision, but it felt like the right thing to do at this point. He went to his wife and wrapped his arms around her. "We have to do something."…
-
"The will must be stronger than the skill." ******************** Heaven decided to do something productive with her time, even though her parents had asked her to rest and not think about her goal to become a ruler for a while. She understood their concern, but she couldn't just rest and do nothing. She was becoming restless and thinking of things that only made her feel more worried. The feeling of sickness returned, and she thought of doing something quickly to distract herself. She touched her…
-
"People don't want to hear the truth because they don't want their illusion destroyed." **************** Roshan decided to wait for his son in his room. He needed to talk to him. He didn't know whether to be the tough father now or the friendly one. He would have to wait and see when Zarin arrived. After a few hours, Zarin finally materialized in his room. His eyes widened in shock when he found his father waiting. "Father?" Roshan who was almost falling asleep forced himself to wake up.…
-
"Your child will follow your example. Not your advice." ***************** "Grandpa!" Gina came running, and Roshan's father stood up from his seat and wrapped his arms around his granddaughter. He lifted her up from the ground and then put her down while chuckling softly. "My sweet." He grabbed her face between his hands. "How come you only get more beautiful?" Gina chuckled. "What grandfather looks like you? You look like my brother." She told him with a wide smile. He laughed. Putting his…
