"Well, you are one wild woman.." dumbfounded, Eli replied. A part of her was shocked but another part of her really admired the other soul for being adventurous.
"Hehe yeah, in fact, I don't even know the na of the little one's father. All I knew was that he had a good well-ripped body, silver hair, and captivating crystal blue eyes.." Elise started describing the little one's father vividly... in the heavenly realm.
"Ssssshhh!! The Great One will hear you! He might banish you to hell for saying these... things.." Eli, the virgin shyly reprimanded the bashful and naughty Elise.
"Hahaha!! Pardon Lady Elise... Well, although that's what happened, I know that there is no love that can happen between us and that is just one night of drunkenness during a festival..." Elise toned down but continued her tale.
"When I discovered that I was pregnant, I got so scared and I pretty much didn't know what to do. I never knew that I would get pregnant right away after doing it just once, just once! I was so naïve.." Elise innocently explained.
"However.... the child was destined to be labeled as illegitimate - born out of wedlock! So I tried to kill the child. I didn't want to get pregnant! I didn't want it to be born! I didn't want it to be nad as illegitimate! So I went around town and found a store selling dicine that could forcefully terminate the pregnancy." with great sadness, she continued.
"I started to put on a disguise to go to the shop, but when I saw myself in the mirror sothing dawned on . I, as well, was an unwanted child... I witnessed my very own parents receive money with their own two hands by selling ..." Elise started to sob.
"Due to the freedom I so miraculously gained, I was so engrossed in being free that I didn't realize that the actions I made would shackle my very own child with the sa thing!"
"If I do not want this child, then who in the world would want it? Who in the world would say to my child that 'you are not a mistake'?... That mont, Lady Eli is the mont I decided to beco a mother." Elise reminisced.
"Since then, I decided to give birth to my child no matter what. I will give him or her a life where he or she will never feel unwanted! Never!"
"That is why even if I die, I would do anything to give my child a chance to live, even if it ans giving up the very opportunity to beco a mother!"
"That is why, Lady Eli, I implore you to descend to our world and give birth to my child! I cannot offer anything, I also don't know how hard it will be for you.."
"Forgive for my selfish reasons, I give you no excuse... I only can beg you," Elise relentlessly begged Eli.
Eli didn't reply.. but there is one thought that kept resonating inside of her -
"If I do not want this child, then who in the world will?"
It kept repeating and repeating in her that soon, Elise's voice overlapped with soone's voice so familiar in Eli's life.
The voice was none other than Eli's mother. To be precise, she was Eli's aunt who took her in as her very own daughter when she was just a child.
For Eli, the ti she spent with her mother was the most treasured thing she had in her life. She would never ever forget this mont of her life. The years living with her mother were the mont Eli felt that she was indeed living her life.
As she reminisced about it, she started to contemplate, maybe if she entered paradise she would see her mum and they will live together again!
However, can she really show her face in front of her? Looking at how she had lived her life until she died, her mum would really be disappointed. Sigh...
Eli looked at Elise, this soul in front of her had so much maturity.
She beca a real mother despite being three years younger than her. For her child, she would give away the fact that her child will never get to address her "Mother" FOR ETERNITY! What a girl!
Comparing herself, she realized that she wasn't ready yet to face her mum, for she didn't fulfill her promise to her - to live her life to the fullest.
Life after her mum died was bleak.
She let herself be eaten away by society until the day she died. She knew that if her mum sees her right now, she will be so disappointed.
She needs to redeem herself sohow.
Fortunately, there's an opportunity presented to her. However, this opportunity was in no way easier than her previous life.
"Uhmm Elise, I really don't know how to beco a mother..." The task right now was just like a vacant job position. Eli was trying to apply with ZERO qualifications!
"Lady Eli-" feeling that she would be rejected, Elise tried once again to plead to Eli.
"But, I know how it feels to be loved by a great mother... So if it is alright with you.. would you entrust your motherhood, your child's life to ?" Knowing that being a mother was a delicate task, Eli wanted to at least ask Elise her full permission if she was really alright with this.
"Lady Eli!!!!!" Elise was in pleasant surprise.
"Yes! I am alright with it, especially if the Great One Himself recomnded you. I know that I can entrust my little one's life to you!!!" she excitedly replied with a voice that seed to indicate that she was crying with happiness.
"Then, I will be your baby's birth mom and you'll be the soul mom!!!" Eli cheerfully replied. She decided that she will sohow tell her child-to-be about the existence of this great soul in front of her.
"I don't know what that ans but, alright!" full of joy, Elise replied. Seeing that her greatest worry would be solved, her carefree personality instantly manifested.
They both chuckled. Two won finally ca to terms.
"Oh by the way, have you ever thought of the na you will give to your child? At least you are able to leave a part of you for him or her." Eli suggested.
"A na, yes! That would be a great idea, Lady Eli!" Elise replied, touched by Eli's thoughtfulness. Then she contemplated.
"I would like to na my child after the grace of the Great One upon both of our lives, Johann would be his na should he be a boy. Johanna, should she be a girl," Elise longingly replied.
"Good na Elise! Rest assured. My promise is that I will do my best to beco a good mom to the little one. AND I will let the little one know of your existence!" Eli declared.
"My... Lady Eli, you don't have to! I'm already contented knowing that the little one will have a chance to live!" Elise was shocked at Eli's declaration.
"Ohh by the way, our nas are coincidentally similar. Hahaha! My na is Elise Manlangit!. Eli is my nickna! I'm more comfortable with that~~~" having felt they have gotten closer Eli introduced herself.
"I am most blessed to et you, Lady Eli! This humble one's na is Elise Fayre." Elise answered.
"Nice to et you too Elise!! Oh, it is good knowing your na for I am sure that I will need to use that na too hehe!" Eli jokingly replied.
Suddenly, an amicable chuckle was heard by the two conversing souls.
"Hahaha! Seems like both of you had already made a decision, ya?" It was the Great One's voice.
It was only then that they had noticed that they were actually back in the enormous hall.
"Yes, uhm Great One, I have decided to obey your plan," Eli politely replied.
"Hahaha!!! I knew it, you are a good child! Then let prepare to send you back," the Great One replied.
As soon as he did, he waved his hands at the table. A regular-looking book appeared on top of the desk. However, he did not do anything else and stared at Eli.
Feeling awkward Eli cautiously asked. "Uhmm Great One, you see, I am still actually afraid of the task that you have given .."
The Great one didn't say anything. He let her continue.
"Uhm Dear Great Father~~I know you will back up, but I wanted to ask you for sothing that may increase mine and the little one's survival. You know, it is a new world for both of us and the evil one is still out there..." Eli shyly explained.
"What is it that you wanted to ask, dear child~" the Great One is very pleased by Eli calling her 'father'.
"I won't ask for magic, nor power, all I want to ask is access to knowledge! Knowledge of the world where you will send . Knowledge about pregnancy. Knowledge for everything that I need to know for living my new life..." Eli humbly asked.
"Sure my child! Here it is!!!" The Great One tapped the very book that had appeared earlier and it transford into an orb and flew directly within Eli's soul.
"!!! You already knew what I would ask!! Thank you Great One!! Thank you, Great Father!!!" Amazed, Eli exclaid
"Of course, you are my child! I created you! Hahahaha!" the Great One chuckled in delight.
Elise on the side giggled too.
