chapter 27: Maggie's sister

An awkward silence falls in the room

Maggy squeezed Eva's cheeks hard while avoiding eye contact with me " Eva... "

" ow.. ow sis it's hurting, I am sorry "

Maggy released her grip and glimpsing at me before looking away, Eva started rubbing her red cheek with an innocent smile

" Why are you still standing sit on a chair " Maggy sat up and drag a plastic chair and gestures me to sit down

after few minutes both sisters kept talking until someone knocks on the door

" miss Maggy, Doctor is here "

" I am coming "

Maggy kissed her sister's forehead and went out of the room " Please wait here, I will come back after few minutes"

" No problem " I turned toward Eva after Maggy went out.

"..."

"..."

straight short brown hair up to the end of the neck with pale skin ...Small human girl observing me closely like she wanted to say something about my appearance

" you like black?"

" yeah "

she lets out with a beaming smile " me too "

I smiled in response but didn't say any word

she asked me " Do you have a girlfriend?"

I hesitate for a moment before say something as I wonder a small girl like her talking freely about these subjects

" How old are you "

her expression changed as she became serious

" it's rude to ask women her age "

"..."

"..."

what the heck was that, was she just said never ask women her age but she was not a woman, she was a small child, I guess 6 or 7 years old.

" But if you want to know... then I'm am 4 years old... now it's your turn to answer my question"

my mouth fell open looking at her confident face, this human child is... I don't know. I don't have words...

" Hey... are you daydreaming?"

" what? "

" you are not answering my question"

I covered my face with my hands before the answer " No, "

" really... " she lets out loudly like she did not believe my words but again she smiled " Good, Good "

" What is that is that food " I quickly changed the topic, I don't want further convention about this when I scanned the room I saw one bottle with colored water in it

" oh it's chocolate milk, do you want it?" she picked up the bottle and throw it at me, I read and heard a lot about chocolate of earth but never taste it before... it's time to drink this milk

I opened the bottle and started drinking it without stopping and amazingly it tastes like nectar. I put an empty bottle on her bed " do you have more "

She smiled in response... I consumed two more bottles of chocolate milk but I can't get enough... but unfortunately, she only has one more bottle, I stopped drinking because it's against my pride to take everything from a small mortal... I am God after all ...

" Are you a virgin?"

I started coughing after hearing her next question, I couldn't able to drink the remaining chocolate milk from the bottle, After examination, I came to the conclusion that...she is a scary child...

" Are you ok, Don "

I nodded in response approaching near a window

" Wow, you are still a virgin "

I said with wide eyes " what ...it's not... I mean I am not a virgin...small human "

" OmG, You just called me human it means you are not human what are you... a God "

I was speechless, there were no words left in my mouth, I have to get out of here...

" Relax I was just kidding "

I swallowed hard while slowly walking towards the door but again that little girl let out " You are handsome like Apollo, powerful like Hercules, and totally like Eros, you are perfect..."

I halted my steps for a second and stare at her, this was the first time someone was saying God's name in front of me since I arrived on the earth, was this girl aware of our existence...

I sat on the chair beside the bed and asked her questions " Do you believe in Gods? "

she nodded in response

" Ok... let's see how much do you know about us ... I mean them? " leaning forward I asked

" What do you want to know, I know everything about gods " she replied with a determined face

" Ok tell me about the underworld "

" no don't...don't say his name it's not good for us " She quickly curl her legs close to her as she looks at me in a panicked gaze

" What... do you mean "

" the king of the underworld, if you say his name then he will punish you instantly or do something worse like torture you in the hell, everyone avoids calling his name " She darts her eyes on me

" Hell," I don't understand why she was saying that, our realm was like that nor my father torture someone even they do whatever they want until they come into the underworld...

" Hell means the underworld where he tortures human souls, everyone afraid of that place " She explained to me slowly looking at her bed

" Who told you this?"

" internet, you can find everything about Gods or any important events "

I observed her scared face, who spread this nonsense about us... Olympic gods... they already hate my father except for king Zeus and king Poseidon. this is absurd, other Gods don't even consider my father as a God...

I closed my eyes frustratedly, why father always has kept quiet about their behaviors, my father was one of the great Trinity and them...

" it's all a lie"

" what? "

I smiled a little and I stare into her eyes " Hades "

her eyes widen in fear, but I gave her a reassuring smile " See nothing happens to me "

she looks around in distress but after few moments she calmed down and gave me a weak smile " you are so brave like my sister said "

" your sister said, " I asked her for more info as if I don't want a tense atmosphere around us after all she was just a child

her face again lighten up as she started grinning " yeah she told me a lot about you, how you teach her and saved her life "

" I never saved her life... "

" you are too kind like Hestia "

" No, I am more like Hades " I winked at her and she smiled at me but this time she wasn't scared after listening to my father's name...

The door opened at my back and Maggy came in with another nurse, Maggy hugged Eva " hey sweetheart, I will come back tomorrow"

The nurse smiled and said " Hey little Eva it's time for a nap "

I went to the exit door and then I heard Eva's sweet voice "Don see you around "

I turn back and said " of course but in one condition, next time we would've to talk about hades and the underworld "

Maggy raised eyebrows at my words

" of course "

After that, I went toward the exit door and Maggy followed behind

" sis do you know Don is still a virgin "

I froze on the ground, this little child... Fuck...

I walked out of the room without waiting for Maggy and only heard one word...

" Eva... " Maggy shouted politely but again followed me behind.

We stayed silent until we came into the garden in front of the hospital but after seeing that spot where That woman slapped Scarlett, My mood changed, why has she slapped her daughter or even called her cursed? Scarlett didn't tell me she had a mom, grandfather, but is this how they treat her?

" I am sorry... Eva just... "

I glace at Maggy, she was walking slowly with me while avoiding my gaze

" it's ok she is just a 4 years old girl "

" thank God you are not angry... she is not a bad girl it just she always had to stay alone in the hospital "

I sign and started talking casually

" why she was in the hospital ?"

Maggy wrapped her arm around herself as she mewled " She.. has a KI sickness "

I look at her glassy eyes as walk beside her at that time I also don't know what to say, because I don't have any idea what was the ki sickness...
