Chapter 129

Zenovia

“Callahan!” I cried out and tried to reach for him, but it was as if I could not move. I felt I was rooted to my spot and could not take a step forward.

Some invisible barrier seemed to block my way ahead.

“Callahan!! Look at me!!” I cried again, and it was then that I realized that my voice was not reaching him.

In fact, he was not even looking at me. He had his back turned to me and was staring into nothingness.

The skies above grew turbulent and the clear sky became angry as black clouds and swirls of winds appeared out of nowhere.

The winds were roaring loudly as I saw the scene before me grow hazy. I tried to focus on Callahan, but he seemed to watch the turbulence with a detached longing.

“Callahan!! Watch out!!” I cried and banged my hands on the invisible walls, but the attempt was futile.

I tried speaking to the voice, “What is going on? What is the meaning of all this?” but again was met with silence.

Somehow, my voice wasn’t reaching the other side, but I could see and hear whatever was going on the other side of the invisible wall pretty clearly.

I moved to the side to get a better view of what was going on.

The winds stopped roaring fiercely for a second and I saw the shadows of someone, a girl, looking at him.

She had a pale face but was very beautiful. Her long hair cascaded down her back and the long black dress she was wearing accentuated her figure even more.

Callahan slowly reached for her face as tears were streaming down the face of the girl. There was some distance between them and the girl was limping, her feet unsteady as she took one step after another at him.

I saw the way her hands clutched her stomach and she let out a pained whimper.

“Cal…” she said weakly, and he immediately went towards her. He cradled her in his arms, scooping her up in his embrace but his legs were shaking too.
