The Fallen Angel

THE QUIET MORNING BEGUN

THE QUIET MORNING BEGUN Joardan walk down the stairs at 3 in the morning. He just woke up without knowing why. He walk inside the kitchen to get a water. He still can't believe that he can open the phone now, and that what he found is very interesting.

Michael, his father is having an affair with an unknown woman.

"What's so special about this woman?" Joardan asks himself. Asking why his father needs to find another woman if Veronica, his mom is in here. Means, there is something to that woman that his mother doesn't have.

After drinking a water, he walk straight to the sala to watch a Netflix show. He keep scrolling to find an interesting show to watch until he found one. "The 100?" He says. He played it because he saw an angel in the picture. Maybe he can find an answer why a dark angel is following him around, like the one who's in his room, right now.

Yes, the dark figure went inside his room earlier to scare him and it kept saying that Joardan doesn't belong here. So what he do is he punch the dark figure while talking that makes the angel collapse on his floor. He was shock because the last time he punch that dark figure, he just passes through him.

He continued watching 'The 100' until the sun came. His parent found him downstair. "Joardan?" His mom said. Joardan look to her with a smile on his face. "Hi, morning." He greeted and smiled. His mom walk towards him and look to the show he is watching. "You're awake all night?" His mom said when she realized it. "I start watching when I woke up in 3am." Joardan answered. "Then who's the one murmuring in your room?" He look to his father and he laugh.

The couple look confuse on what is happening.

"Oh, that was nothing. Maybe it's the show and you just think that it's from my room because you didn't know I'm here downstairs." Joardan lied and smiled. He totally forgot that there was someone in his room. "You know, I forgot to make my bed. So, I'll go now." He stood up and look to his dad. "By the way, good morning... Daddy." He whispered to his father's ear and smiled sarcastically.

The couple are confuse on what just happened, but they just let him do whatever he wants. They don't want their son not having everything, just after he was murdered.

He went inside his room and he was shock when he can't see the person he locked up here, inside his room.

"Oh God, maybe he escaped." Joardan whispers to himself. He went to his bed and sat there when someone shouted. Joardan was shock when he saw the Angel he locked up here lying down on his bed. "Aaaaaahhh!" Joardan screamed. "How the hell did you do that? You are not here earlier, and now you are here!" Joardan said. "Mhhmm" He said. He couldn't speak because he put a cloth inside his mouth so he can't make any noise.

Joardan walk towards him and get the cloth he put inside his mouth, out.

"How did you do that?" Joardan asks. "I can make myself invisible." The boy said. And Joardan just start laughing. "You know what, don't play with me. Who are you? Why did you attack me at the hospital? Why did you follow me here? Are you going to kill me? Because if you do, I'm not that easy to kill." Joardan says.

"Mr. Karl, I mean Joardan, your parents asking if you're alright?" The maid ask after she knock on his room. "Yes I'm fine, there is just a cockroach in my bed. But don't worry I'm fine." Joardan said and he run towards the door to lock it.

"So now, tell me. Why? Who are you? And what is your intentions?" Joardan ask. "Someone tried to kill you?" The boy asks, Joardan laugh because he's not believing what the boy's asking. "Someone tried to kill me?" Joardan mock his question and he starts chuckling. "Well, that someone is you!" Joardan said. "No! It's not me! I swear to God! It is not me! It's the dark angel!" The boy said.

Joardan walk towards the boy and help him sit on the bed because he is still tied up using a blanket.

"A dark angel? What do you mean? If you're not a dark angel? What are you? A white angel?" Joardan starts burst into laugh because of his own 'not funny joke'. "The dark angel is the one who attacked you! Not me! I am just here to guide you!" The boy said. "I am so sorry little boy. I don't believe in Angels. But God? I do believe him. It's just he doesn't want me here. He never talks back! My parents said that when you talk to him, he talks back, but I've been calling him, talking to him, but I never got an answer! I even ask for my parents to get God's phone number so I can call him but they said that God doesn't have a phone. SO how can I contact him? " Joardan says. "By the way, I'm not easy to be fooled. So, I am sorry, you're just going to lose on making me believe that you are an angel!" Joardan added.

Part of Joardan believe that this boy beside him is an Angel, but he wants not to believe, because why is he haunted by an angel? The last time he was chase down by a ghost.

Joardan believes in Heaven and Hell, he believes in ghost and demon, except for the creature in heaven, like, he only knows the part of Hell, not I Heaven.

He look around when he didn't saw the boys wing.

"Where is your wing costume?" Joardan ask and he stood up. He look under the bed but nothing. The boy is just looking at him, thinking what is he doing. "What are you doing?" The boy asks. "Finding your wings." Joardan answered while still looking for it's wing inside his room. "You mean this." Joardan looks to the boy and he was so shock when the boy unfold his wing from his back.

"Woah." Joardan says. The boy put his wings in his back. Joardan walk towards the boy and look to his back. "Where is it?" Joardan asks. "Are you dumb? It's inside of me. Because I am an Angel." The boy said.

Joardan gulp.

"Maybe I'm dead? Maybe this is just a dream. I really died when that monster hit me with something on my head. And this is just me, imagining things!" Joardan panicks. He is now confused on what is happening.

There was an Angel in front of him.

"Joardan. Relax! You are not dead." The boy said. "How are you so sure? There is an Angel in front of me! Means, I. AM. DEAD!" Joardan says in panick. "You know what?" Joardan calm himself and walk towards the boy.

He untie him.

Maybe after all he's really being haunted by imagination.

That is the question inside Joardan's head. There are lot of things he wants to answer right now, but answer isn't easy to find,

"Thank You." The boy said. Joardan went on the window and open it. "Go." Joardan said. "What?" The boy ask. "What do you mean what? I said go! Fly away! And don't ever come back again. I don't need an Angel." Joardan says. "I can't go anywhere." The boys said. "What do you mean you cant go anywhere? You have a wings! You can fly! I said go!" Joardan added and he started pushing the boy out of his room. "No, you don't understand! Joardan, you're not belong here!" The boy said while Joardan is pushing him.

Joardan stop pushing and the boy face him. The light make him dark because the boy is standing against the light. Until Joardan remember something.

There was a shadowy figure walking towards the boy who's crying all day. The shadowy figure has a wings, and so does the boy too. The boy look up to see the man in his front.

"It's okay brother. God is good. Whatever he do to you, it's for the best because he knows everything." Until the shadowy figure shows it face to the boy.

The same face of the boy in front of Joardan right now.

"I remember something. And you are there! Who are you?" Joardan says to the boy. "I'm Alex." The boy said. Joardan smiled. "Goodbye Alex." Joardan says like he didn't care about what he remembered and he push Alex out of the window but he just passes through inside him and he fall outside his window.

He was so shock on what happened that he didn't realize he fall on the ground, outside their house. "Aw..." Thankfully the ground outside their house isn't made of tiles, it's made of grass.

"Sir! Are you alright?" He look up and saw one of their maids, until the people inside their house is going out to check on what happened. "Karl!" His mother said and run towards him. "What happened? Are you hurt?" His mother said. "No, I'm fine." Joardan says and he sat down on the ground like nothing happened. "Let's eat!" Joardan says and he stood up. Joardan help his mother to stand and they walk inside their house.

His mother look up to where his son's room is. "It's on the third floor." His mother whispered but she just didn't mind it seriously, thinking maybe falling on the grass isn't that harmful because she didn't experience it. Until she saw a shadowy figure on his son's room. "Veronica. Are you coming?" Her husband called. Veronica look to her husband and just smiled, he look up again but the shadow is gone, she shakes her head thinking it was just her imagination.

While on the dining table, the family is eating in silence. Joardan look to the couple who's eating quietly and look to the maids who's standing beside the table. "Is this really a thing? You four slaves are just gonna stand beside the table and watch us eating?" Joardan asks. "Yes. They are our maids, they have a schedule when they're going to eat. Because they're going to serve us our food." Michael said, his father. "Oh." Joardan look to the four. "Then eat. You four are hungry, I can see it through your eyes." Joardan said. "Son..." His mother called him. Joardan look to his mother and smiled. "Even they are our slaves, they are human. How many years these slaves are serving us? 4? 5?" Joardan asks. "13 years." His father said.

Joardan was shockon what he heard, he has no idea about that. Because of that, he got choked on what he's eating. "I need water." Joardan said and one of the maid run towards him to get him water. "No! Not water!" His father said and he stood up and walk towards Joardan. He tap Joardan's back so whatever he was choking on, he's gonna puke it.

After he puke a piece of meat, he drank water.

"Sorry, I didn't expect that number of years." Joardan says. "So... They are our family now. They can eat with us." Joardan says. "It's your choice. Not ours. You don't want the maids to eat with us, you are even the one who says that they should stand beside the table while we're eating." His father says. "I said that?" Joardan look to his father. "Well, things changed. Like me. I changed." Joardan says.

Yes, he totally changed.

That's what his father thinking. He changed, totally changed. He is not the Karl they know, the Karl that everyone hates. Maybe this one is lovable, this one is strong.

Or maybe, nothing really changed after all.

Joardan's father walk back to his seat to continue his food.

"Well, son. Joardan... You're going back to school next week. Is it alright?" Joardan look to his mother like he doesn't care. "It's alright." Joardan answered. "But if something happens, you'll tell us. Alright?" His mother added. "Yeah, sure. Nothing's gonna happen." Joardan said with a confidence in his voice.

For now, until Joardan doesn't have any clue or any idea about the body he's possessing, he will be confident. But, what if he learned the truth? What if he will learn everything about Karl? Can he still be this confident?
