My name is not really important... I'm an angel who did something she wasn't suppose to... I came down to Earth without asking... Because of my sin, I'm to lead a life of a human, with their pains and sorrow while I suffer my own curse... I can't eat or drink any of the mortal substances... I can only consume water. I can only function properly while the sun is out. At night I barley have energy to walk...
I have developed mortal ways. I have just learned to read and write. I'm to assume the age of a 17 year old young woman. I live with Jane Anderson. She is a kind old woman that took me in 2 years ago without even asking me why I was dressed in nothing when I showed up at her door. She cared for me, as a mother would care for her own child. She wiped away my tears and made me smile. She promised to take care of me as long as she lived. To her I owe my happiness in a place far, far away from home. I have never had a mother and I feel if I did she would love just a little less than Mrs. Anderson...
You’re probably wondering, if I'm an angel then why I am living on Earth just because I broke a little rule... I wasn’t that I broke that rule... I broke a very important one... I forgot my place... I forgot that I/m to serve God and never interfere with anything he says or does... I saved a child that was to die...
My join in heave was to water flowers and sing to them... One day I heard a cry while I was talking to a lily flower... It was a sad cry... It made me feel the utter most sadness deep within my heart... It was a little baby crying! I conjured a simple spell to find the source of the cry... IT came down to a small house in a poor village... The boys mother had died of a fever and being the baby he was, he couldn't do anything but cry as she lied there lifeless ... without taking a second to think, I went down to Earth and got the baby help. I talked to a man in the street and told him about the little baby... He was kind hearted and considerate. He went and got the baby and buried the mother. I was one of the people to attend her funeral....
After the funeral a message came to me... It was decided... That baby was to have the same fate as its mother... Because I stepped in the fate of the child's death, I was to be punished. Without having a chance to say good bye to my beautiful flowers in heaven, I was stripped of my powers and sent down to Earth to live as a human... I will not age... I don't even know what I'm to do on Earth... One thing is for sure... I'll do my best to follow the God has assigned me and try my best not to defy him again...
Mrs. Anderson's house is small and simple. At night the tree's around her house whisper to me about how kind and gentle she is. She has helped me lead a life as a human. It might not be a life of a normal human but its better than just wondering around, confused all the time. I attend a local high school because there is nothing else for me to do. I enjoy watching the humans interact with one another and seeing them happy. After school I work in a small flower store near Mrs. Anderson's house. The store is owned by Mrs. Anderson's late husbands sister. She is a kind woman as well.
I'm glad that I can be near what makes me happy. I love it when the flowers talk to me and tell me their secrets. They are so beautiful and simple. I don't like it when they aren't well and I can't do anything to help... It breaks my heart. I wish I could take away their pain and turn it into my own. I would rather suffer myself then watch them cry and silently fade away into death.
I have come to care for Mrs. Anderson... I feel pain as she ages. I often hold both her hands hoping to take away her pain… I cry my own silent tears as her time comes closer. What can I do? Nothing, whisper the voice inside my head! There is nothing I can do, except make her time left on this planet a good memory...
I have come to an understanding with the way mortals dress. Yes, I dress like them. I find the way they dress confusing but I choose to go along with it. Mrs. Anderson told me "If you go outside the way you are, everyone would stare at you." So I wear what she provides me with.
Most of the time I wear a tee shirt with jeans because I have to walk. I walk to school. After school I have to walk to work... How I miss floating and flying, but there is nothing I can do. I get out of work at 4 p.m. I have 2 hours free time, which I spend talking to the roses and doing either house work or home work. I love how happy Mrs. Anderson looks after I clean up the house for her. I like making her smile.
Her garden is simple and tidy. Mrs. Anderson loves birds, so she asked me to put up a few bird houses. All types of ideas come to me when I sit in her garden. I even do my home work there. I like sitting in the small swing near the oldest tree. The tree is filled with strong energy. I feel the every time I go near it.
