Divine Purpose

Prologue

Running on the park catching a butterfly. I felt free. I was just around 5 years old and we are on a picnic. I hear my mom and dad laughing while sitting on the grass with a blanket.

I feel someone staring at us. I shifted my gaze towards a nearby tree.

And there is tall figure leaning on a tree with brownish or should I say cookie hair?

I waved at him and he smiled at me showing his dimples and those wings. Hmm?

I walked towards him and he bent down so I can see him better.

His blood red orbs are focused on me. "Well hello there little grace." He asked while he smiled.

"Are you my guardian angel?" I asked.

He chuckled pinching my nose. "I guess you can call me that. "

"Oww" focusing on my nose. "yay I have a guardian angel! " I danced and looked back to my parents again. They weren't laughing anymore while mom has her hand on her chest.

"mom, dad I have a guar-" I said running towards them but stopped when mom suddenly laid down and dad was shaking her.

I looked back at him hoping he can help me but then a bright light appeared as I go near him. It got brighter and brighter almost blinding..

"Hannah! "

Mom!

"Hannah! Wake up!"

I jolted up feeling nervous and uneasy. Seeing Andrea next to me made me feel safe. She then hugged me reassuring that everything's okay.

"Hey.. Its ok.. " It only then made me realize that I've been crying. Another nightmare.

I miss you mom..

"Are you ok? Mom made roasted turkey and asked me to call you but I saw you murmuring and crying" she said eyes filled with concern.

"Its nothing. " I said. I don't want to make her think I'm having one of those nightmare again..

I didn't know Mrs. Ravis came. I was sort of close to Andrea's parents and sometimes she would invite her mom with us. Yeah cuz me and Andrea live in the same house. We're old enough for this.

"I'll be down" I said standing up to wash my face. "Don't be long or we'll be slapped" she said teasing.

I looked myself in the mirror, with blue orbs inherited from my mom. My brown beach wave hair probably from hers too. Too bad she left early..

Pushing the thoughts away, I pulled my hair into a messy bun and rushed downstairs. I closed my eyes inhaling the sweet scent of roasted turkey that made my tummy growl in hunger.

I helped prepare the plates and sat down. Looking at the turkey made me drool. Well not literally tho.

As I was about to devour the turkey, Mrs. Ravis chuckled. "Not without a prayer. "

Right. I almost forgot since I was so focused on it. The three of us stood up, closed our eyes and opened my mouth to speak.

"Dear lord,
Thank you for this blessing that we have in front of us today. Thank you for keeping us safe and having mrs. Ravis come here today. Amen"

And after that we calmly sat but smothered our faces on the turkey as soon as our butts touched our chair. A bit of exaggeration there or not- but hey, turkey is like the best and speaking of Mrs Ravis cooking it? That's a pretty combination. More like heaven eating her cooked food.

"Can I like adopt you or something? " I said still stuffing my mouth with turkey. Andrea laughed at my statement causing her to cough a little. our laughter followed as we ate. It made me feel warm.

We waved as Mrs. Ravis decided to go home. "Thank you! Come again please!" I said smiling.

She kissed us on the cheek goodbye. And all I could think of is how sweet she is to me. To us. She treats me like I'm also her daughter and made me feel like home whenever I'm with them.

I sat on the couch next to Andrea who was apparently watching The Office.

"Ughh how can he be freaking smart? His pranks are hilarious! " she said laughing while slapping the couch.

"Ima head upstairs." I stood up going upstairs entering my sweet room and shutting the door behind me. I plopped down on the bed thinking about that dream. It seemed like a distant memory.

Looking at my side, is my desk filled with hearts. I looked down on my chest, seeing my necklace having wings as the pendant given to me by someone. I tried removing it, because of the fact that I dont remember who it was from and what its purpose is. But everytime I remove it, I keep coming back to it. Its like im bonded with it or something and can't seem to remove it from me.

Exhausted, I pushed myself on the bed my eyes halfway closed.

Then I saw it, a glimpse of light.
