I sit at the coffee place near my apartment. Iced Tea seems to be so certain on ruining the poor boy's life. I sip my matcha tea and stare at the wall. I wonder what I'll do with her. She hasn't said anything about that boy that she said she saw a few times whenever he was close to dying. The boy needs to live and she hasn't said anything. That boy can not die, he is way too important.
One of the kitchen witches brought me my éclair, carefully drizzled with caramel and chocolate with whipped cream. She had a bright smile on her face as she continued to fill my cup back up to full.
I bowed my head and went back to staring at the wall. Maybe it was a waste of time to think about this. I'm sure Iced Tea knows what she's doing.
I finished my service here and left. The path was busy and crowded by the lunch rush. I walked with a grumble, going over to the library. The library was never loud or crowded and it was huge.
I walked in and I was greeted by the assistant there. I smiled at her and then went to the back of the library. I went to the section labeled "Healing Runes and Hexes"
Iced Tea will need more books for that Myra girl. Those doctors are terrible. Maybe if I could find a spell good enough then maybe that girl will be healed and the doctors won't see a problem with it. That poor girl. I wasn't able to help the father but I will help the boy's mother. That poor boy. Three terribly raised and treated boys.
I reach for a few random books and buy them off of the library. I left with a basket full of books and then made my way over to a grocery store. I was already exhausted and didn't want to go in but if I want dinner tonight then I have to grab some ingredients.
I happily went over to the meats section and grabbed some tempura, rice, seaweed, and a peanut butter cheesecake just for dessert.
I lived alone so it would just be me eating tonight. At one point, Iced Tea lived with me. I do miss her living with me but she had to find her own path in life. I paid for my stuff with my coins and then left.
Once I had returned home, I began to cook my food. I sat down on my couch and turned on the television. My body ached. After all these years, after all these centuries, my curse lives on. I remember when the cafe was a place to get your nails done. But the owner died long ago and the son made it into the cafe it is now. I knew his mother well, she was nice, but I'm glad she had moved on.
After my food was finished, I ate it and then had a slice of cheesecake. My apartment boards creaked from being so old, sometimes it makes me think that Iced Tea is still here.
Iced Tea is almost cursed just like me, but she can die. She dies and then gets reincarnated, remembering everything from the past. She was given to me as a gift for my sorrows. She has been a great gift. I have seen her die and then die and die again without ever losing her. If she were to die right now and then get reincarnated, I would still know exactly what her new human form looks like without ever seeing it. After almost every time she gets reincarnated she gets to live with me. This time some other humans got her and I wasn't able to steal her, not after seeing how happy they were to be gifted with a little girl after many difficult years. Her parents really deserved her.
Oh the times where we would sit here and I would teach her the way of magic and I remember the day she got into a coven. She was so excited. In this dimension, depending whether you are immortal like me or demi-god like Iced Tea. Iced Tea, since she was raised as a witch and is technically from here, she only ages properly in this dimension. In the human realm, she ages a different way and then reincarnates. If she were to come here, she would still look as young as a child. She hasn't been here in years but if she were, she would basically be a child. Her days would go by slower.
But nonetheless, she looked so happy here just as she does with her human family. I don't have a husband mainly because I am immortal and no one else really is. I don't wish to lose a close one.
I had already lost Iced Tea to the Mortals.
