Goddess

As the man's third wish was fulfilled, the air crackled with anticipation, the darkness surrounding them beginning to fracture like a mirror on a wall. From the shattered void emerged a portal, its edges pulsing with an otherworldly light, beckoning him towards the unknown.

"When you cross this portal, you will be reborn in a new world," the Goddess explained, her voice carrying a solemn weight.

With a final glance back at the Goddess, gratitude shining in his eyes, the man stepped towards the portal. "Thank you for giving me what I wanted," he expressed with a happy smile, his heart brimming with anticipation for the journey ahead. With each step, he ventured closer to the threshold of reincarnation.

As he disappeared into the portal, embarking on the path of rebirth, only the Goddess remained, standing alone amidst the darkness. A sense of melancholy settled over her as she watched him depart, a faint sadness tugging at her heartstrings.

"Why am I feeling this way? Why does his departure weigh so heavily on my chest?" she mused to herself, her thoughts swirling amidst the void.

Realization dawned upon her like a gentle breeze, stirring the depths of her soul. "I have been alone for centuries," she admitted, her voice tinged with a hint of longing. "Perhaps it feels good to have someone to talk to, to share laughter and anger."

With a heavy sigh, she brought her hands to her face, her breaths deep and contemplative. But soon, a warm flush spread across her cheeks, and a radiant smile graced her lips. "He said he wants to marry me," she exclaimed, her heart dancing with newfound joy. "For the first time, someone has expressed a desire for me."

Her thoughts spun into a whirlwind of possibilities, her mind alight with fantasies of companionship and love. "If he wants me, then he must love me," she reasoned, her excitement building with each passing moment. "And if he becomes my husband, we will have children together. They will call me mommy."

A gleeful laughter bubbled forth from her lips as she reveled in the prospect of a future filled with love and companionship. "He is mine, and mine alone," she declared with unwavering determination. "Whatever the future holds, he belongs to me."

With renewed purpose, the Goddess's resolve hardened, her determination burning bright within her. With a swift motion, she left the soul realm behind, her heart set on being reunited with her beloved. "I will be with him at all times," she vowed fiercely. "No other shall come between us. Anyone who dares to approach him will face my wrath."

With newfound determination propelling her forward, the Goddess set forth with unyielding resolve, ready to claim her rightful place by his side for all eternity.
