“There are moments in life; you really need to say ‘Karma’s a bitch.’ Especially when you know what goes around, comes around like the solar system. All you can do is learn from it. Of course, on the bright side, you can be at times be lucky, and I say enjoy it while you can because they won’t come behind every corner. This is life; God has nothing to do with it. No matter how often you humans say ‘God works in mysterious ways’ ” I sniggered and shook my head. “Mischievous things is what you are under my eyes.” I crossed my arms and smirked down at her.758Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7oUP3b4RiN
She blinked at me speechless for a long, long moment until she collected herself. “And you’re supposed to be my guardian angel?”
“Hey, you’re Christian by religion. I expect you to know the difference since I don’t have wings as a start.” I snarled through my clenched teeth.
“Then if you’re not an angel, why are you here?”
“Good question. A practitioner’s mistake on his first day, he accidentally placed me as your guardian so-called angel. My name’s Malicius, your guardian demon.” I took a bow.
“So, you’re my guardian since I was born like the other guardian’s?”
“Not exactly, I became your guardian from the moment you were baptized into Christianity.”
“Then what about the other people who have different religions?” She wondered.
“They have their own versions of guardians at their side. A guardian protects even those that stick with the facts in life upon this world.”
“That’s assuring.” She sighed relieved and smiled. “So you’re a demon, were you a human before?”
“My name doesn’t ring a bell who I once was.” I sighed and ran a hand over my face. “I thought the bible would care to mention besides the big boss who fell.”
She blinked. “You’re. A. Fallen. Angel?” Wondering like a baffled child with enlarged eyes at me.
“You don’t need to sugar-coat it. It’s ancient history.” I turned away. For a brief moment, I recalled the moment of falling that I tried to forget all those centuries.
“Pamela! Pamela! Where are you? It’s time to head home for today! Pamela! Oh, there you are, let’s go home and prepare dinner. We can come here again soon.” Her mother called and soon found her after walking a while through the graveyard. Lucky I’m a guardian, so I can only be visible to her and not the mother. Once spotted then I’m always seen so doing pranks on her will be from now on a bit tricky on that 12-year-old girl. Although a demon I still have a habit to hold on to a few rules and now as a guardian, it is forbidden to call the protected’s the true name. It is a relationship policy thing and of course, always protect them at all cost until they die. Maybe I shouldn’t have done that prank with the spider in the drawer at the practitioner to avoid this situation. Oh well, as I mentioned before; what goes around, comes around and karma’s a bitch.
