CHAPTER 26

What is that supposed to mean.

*************

ANDRA'S POV

"Bollitovah, Bollitovah... Wake up Bollitovah" i heard a whisper from my left side. Since when did Alex's voice change to a girl's voice, and why the h*ll is he calling me Bol.. Booli.. Whatever, why was he Calling me that.

I sighed weakly, I concluded he must be dreaming or something like that, or maybe he was just trying to tease me.

Hahaha, it won't work tonight dude.

I took a deep breath and faced the other side of the bed and continued my beauty sleep.

"Bollitovah wake up" I heard the whisper again but this time it was very aggressive and the voice was in a hurry.

What In the world is wrong with this boy.

I sat up and rubbed my eyes with my hands trying to clear it from sleep.

I turned beside me to wake Alex up but instead I saw the girl in the Amour sitting beside me, staring into space, Alex wasn't on the bed.

I suddenly remembered what he told me about the girl drawing her sword and walking up to him, fear gripped me.

"Alex?" I called out and jumped out of the bed "where's he, Where's Alex" I asked her in anger.

"He went to the bathroom, do you really think I would touch someone you cared about, I'm not a witch" she rolled her eyes at me.

"Then what are you, who are you, why do you look so much like me and why are you here?" I fired at her.

"Alex will soon be back from the bathroom, we do not want to bother him with our problems, do we? Nah, Which is why we will go outside to talk" she stated and got out of the bed, her gold sandals flashed on my face and i covered my eyes.

She walked to the window and turned back to me. "Are you coming" she asked.

There's no way I'm certainly going with her.

"Listen..." She walked back to me. "You asked me questions, and I want to answer them, but we can't let Alex know about it, cause we don't want to bother him, so let's go outside where we can be alone and talk, queen to queen, how about that" she asked.

I stared at her for a while and nodded. She kinda looked older and more mature tonight. "I'm not jumping window"

"Oh, that's your fear, fine, let's go through the stairs, although Alex might see us but no problem." She shrugged, how come she's acting too serious since today.

We walked out to the passage and as we were walking down stairs she asked.

"Andra imagine that during the time of magic,when kings and lords rule countries, you had a family of only women, a city of women who are considered as warriors but with mysterious powers and you happen to be their queen, how would you feel"

I stopped on my track and turned back to face her, what is she talking about now.

"Of course I would love it" I replied her.

"OK, let's keep moving" she gestured for me to open the door, I turned to the door and unbolted it, we walked outside and walked to the field where Mr. Alfred's remaining three horses were grazing that morning I was having morning sickness.

We sat down and she breathed out.

"Who are you, and why did you call me Bolli.. Bulivo.. Boli what was that again" I asked her.

"Bollitovah, that was my name" she replied.

"So why were you calling me that"

"Cause I like to see you as me" she replied.

"Why" I asked again.

"Remember what I asked you while we were coming out?"

"Yes, imagine if I was a queen of a city of women who has mysterious powers"

"Yes, now imagine if a new king was crowned in the country where that city was located, and the king gives an order that there shall no longer be a city of women warriors with mysterious powers..."

"I would say he's just jealous, and doesn't want anyone to be greater than him" I answered her as I wondered why she was asking me these questions.

"You didn't let me finish" she complained.

"Oops, sorry ma'am" I apologized.

"Imagine if he sends a wizard who possessed greater powers to subdue you and your family to turn you into slaves, and the wizard succeeds, but your family decided to hide you so that you can be able to flee from bundage and then come back and free them one day, they used their last power and made a way for you to escape. When the king found out what has happened, he made the wizard trap them in unbreakable ice and sent his warriors after you. You killed his warriors when they caught up with you. But then you were getting tired, you need to stop running, you needed to rest but there was no one you could go to. Your powers were wearing out" she sighed and layed down on the grasses, I layed beside her, I was already intrigued with the story and I needed to know the end of it.

Something in me made me believe that this has a connection with me.

"Then one day, you ran into a man good looking enough to be a prince, his ocean blue eyes, his tall features, He's sharp chin, his dark hair made you feel like dragging him down and doing unspeakable things with him. But you are not supposed to fall in love as a warrior queen. And neither were you supposed to trust anyone.

This prince charming offered to help you, long story short, you two fell in love and decided to be together" she frowned and sat up and I did the same without getting my eyes off her.

"You forgot where you came from, the people who put their trust in you, your own people who were waiting for you to come and save them. You forgot everything and focused only on your prince, you gave him all your love and everything, told him all your secrets and loved him unconditionally, you didn't for one day think about your family." She cleaned her face and I assumed she was crying, how can that be.

"That would really be wicked of me" I said to her and she nodded with a sad smile.

"It is, then one day you came home from the woods, walked into the house, kissed your prince charming and went to the kitchen to make tea, he walked in behind you, held your waist and whispered into your ears 'if only you had kept running'"

"What?" I exclaimed in astonishment, she sniffled and cleaned her face again.

"You turned to him in confusion only to see a mischievous smile on his face, you wanted to run but you've been broken, you wanted to fight cause you knew what was coming next but you couldn't because, what would you be fighting for, love or to break free, or to stop your heart break." She sniffled again. "Then he raised his hands up and you saw a knife in his hands, he looked directly at you and said 'the king made me a better offer and he was right, women are just too dumb' and that was the last thing you heard before he thrust the knife into your chest 17 times, you felt helpless, you felt empty, all your powers flew out of you like smoke"

her voice was starting to break, and the tears kept pouring out even though she was trying to stop it. "And then when you felt completely lifeless and your soul left your body, he cut out your heart and put it in a box and sent to the king"

I jerked up, I've been talking to a dead person. But of course what was I expecting, she disappears like smoke, she has to be dead to be able to do that.

"If you were the one, what would you do with your spirit when you went back to your ancestors?" She asked me.

"I..I..I would... " I sighed deeply and turned back to her. "I would do everything I can to free my family, I'll go extra miles to punish that man and the king, even if it means coming back to the world in another lifetime or in a different body" I stated and stared at her and by the way she stared back, I didn't need to be told what is going on right now. I jumped up and screamed. "Whaaaaaat"

"A thousand years ago, this was my story, the name of the country is Baritana, my family died under the soul of this place, their souls has been crying to me day and night, even as well speak Andra" she cried, she stood up and walked up to me.

"Andra, Look at me" she turned my face to her. "I owe them, I need your help to be able to pay my debt"

"Are you saying that I'm your reincarnation?" I fired at her.

"What? No, you are living your own life not mine"

"So how do we look alike" I asked in confusion.

"It happens every 1000 years, the creator will create a replica of what he has created before, that's why we look alike"

"OK that makes sense" I paced around for a while and then turned to her. "But you said the souls of your people are crying to you, which mean your people are dead, they don't need saving anymore"

"I need to pay a debt that I owe, I have waited a thousand years, waiting for the right time, the right person, I needed our worlds to collide, you and I, I needed something that can connect you to this city, something that can make me save innocent people. And Your sisters made this work, they connected us"

"No they didn't, I am nothing like you, there's no way I can abandon people i love just because of d*ck" i fired at her.

"I'm gonna blame pregnancy hormones for that insult" she rolled her eyes at me.

"No no b*tch, this is not pregnancy hormones, this is me talking, how could you, now you wanna put me in your mess" I barked at her.

She sighed and sat down. I suddenly felt bad.

"I'm sorry" I apologized.

"No you are right, you are nothing like me, you are a better version of me, you are not even me, I just needed help"

"How do you mean by my sisters connected us?"

"The set up, the pregnancy, your mother, her school mate who's a citizen of Baritana, and the law of Baritana against under age pregnancy, that's how they connected us."

She turned to me.

"I need you to stop this law, many young girls has committed suicide, many died in prison, many has gone into depression, many were raped and got pregnant just like you were set up, but still they face this cruelty. While the ones responsible will be home, enjoying their lives"

"I thought they said the fathers go to prison too if they are underage as well" I asked her.

"How many has gone to prison, 1%" she replied.

"Help me, this is my debt to my family" she pleaded.

"How, I'm pregnant as well"

"Exactly, you know how much it hurts to be rejected because you are pregnant and under age"

I sighed deeply. I remembered Alex's complain about her, so I asked.

"Alex, why did almost attack him?"

"Remember my prince charming, He's name was Alex" she replied.

"So that's why there's an Alex encrypted on you chest" I asked her and she nodded.

"Woaw, 'the creator' really made my life a replica of yours" I stated and we laughed.

"Except that my own Alex is harmless and there is no king that can manipulate him" I added.

"I know, just that I felt scared that he might not let you... I want just insecure, don't worry, it's not like I can touch or kill anyone, I'm just a restless spirit" she chuckled out.

I stared at her for a while and she stared back.

"How can we stop this thing" I finally asked. She smiled and threw her hands up in happiness.

"Thank you so much Andra" she stated and I nodded with a smile. "About the question, figure it out yourself, good morning" she added and puffed away like smoke.

"You are such a jerk" I shouted at nothing.

"How am I supposed to figure it out myself, am I supposed to go to the government and shout, hey dudes, stop the pregnancy laws, it's killing young girls, also it's a debt one ghost amour girl is supposed to pay to her family which she abandoned to go after a prince charming d*ckhead" i muttered to myself.

"That would be harsh, they will certainly not spare your life" I heard Alex's voice, I looked up and saw him walking towards me.

"Alex" I screamed in excitement and ran to him and hugged him, I have no idea why I Was so excited to see him.

"I heard everything, she's a broken soul" he said we sat on the grass.

"She broke souls first" I replied and he laughed.

"You know she's right, you two are connected, she made a mistake and you are to fix it"

"Yea, but why me" I asked as I hugged him tightly suddenly feeling cold and yearning for his warm body.

"Because you are an angel sent to earth to mend souls" he replied and kissed my cheeks.

"I'm scared Alex" I confessed. "I don't know what to do"

"It's OK, I'm here, I'll protect you" he ran his hands through my hair. I clutched him tightly. "But that would be after you put to bed" he added and I nodded.

7 months, 7 months is all I have to think of how to stop this law to free under age girls from prison and from going to prison and committing suicide.

How am I going to achieve this?

Indeed everything happens on earth for a reason.
