Let's have a little recap of what happened in the preceding episodes.
In the previous episodes:
Seti was in pain and flying to see
Kallisto
who is the only person who can help him get ride of it. He remembered
how he had met her the first time but unfortunately this time it was
late at night and she was nowhere to be seen. Seti couldn't spend the
night on the Beach and decided to fly home not noticing that another
demon entered her house. We followed Seti and discovered his chaotic
bedroom before meeting his family for breakfast. They were arguing about
Seti's sister's arranged wedding being canceled by the other family and
Samira was crying. Their father said that Seti would just have to
apologize. and we learn what Seti thinks about the situation. Seti met
the twin's father and gave him an unexpected apology demon style which
scared everyone around except Taram who had been spying at the scene
from the stairs with his twin brother Torin. After the confrontation, as
always when he has a headache, Seti flew to the beach and fell asleep
near the tidal pool. When Seti waked, he saw Kallisto facing a snake he
managed to get through the barrier and stop it from attacking her, at
the moment he is about to kill the snake, Kallisto tells him to stop and
had him let the snake on the other side of the barrier. Then Seti had
an unexpected reaction but Kallisto didn't going to let him go that
easily. Kallisto seems to have a very strange combination of people taking care of the security of the house, which scares Seti a little bit while Kallisto seems to consider that he is her best protection.
Here are my 8 sentences. Seti is getting a bit annoyed to see things not going as he expected.
“Already?” she said.
He could hear the sadness in her
voice, but it was better for her. They wouldn’t meet again and she
would remain safe and happy.
“Yes,” he said flying up.
“When are you coming back?”
she asked.
But Seti didn’t answered and flew up the tree as fast as
he could.

Little explanation
Even though Seti is a Demon, I believe anyone has a choice to go against their nature and make the right decision. Don't forget Seti grew up with everybody believing that he was too dangerous to be touched, it's hard to go against the image everyone gave you about yourself. Maybe someone will help him to overcome that.

Oh Seti, I hope he figures it out soon. Poor thing. Who would have thought I'd feel sorry for a demon.
ReplyDeleteEveryone wants to know when he's coming back.
ReplyDeleteNice 8!
poor Seti. you always intrigue me with your dialogue between these two Linda. another great snippet
ReplyDeleteYou weave a complex tale, both enchanting and real. Good eight.
ReplyDeleteSo, he's being noble. Sometimes that can happen.
ReplyDeleteThis is such a wistful moment---I'm almost sure she knows he isn't planning to return . . .
ReplyDeleteYou can tell Seti's inner conflict is driving him nuts. I like that the way he was led to perceive himself is making him pull himself out of the situation for her protection. He does have a conscience. And on the other hand running away and not dealing isn't always the answer either. Well done Linda.

Part of me really hopes that he can't get past the barrier to leave.
ReplyDeleteI think he's going to be seeing her again, even though he expects not to.
