'Fallen Angel' by Denilce Luca

(...)

One of the Angels though could not keep just watching

And just dry up the Little Girl’s tears…

This Angel was fascinated by the Little Girl…

Now, more than ever this Angel seemed not to have any answer

He had no answer at all for the feelings echoing in his mind

The feelings, he, as an Angel, as a Faithful Guardian,

Could never dare to feel. Ever.

The Angel was feeling something God had imposed to earthlings: Love

The Angel wanted to go down

He wanted to be a Man

To hold the Little Girl very tight in his arms

To kiss the Little Girl’s mouth and body feeling the softness of her skin

To Love her as a Man would

All the moments the Angel had been by the Little Girl’s side

Were moments in which he felt the pain of being stabbed in the heart

He was feeling something God had imposed to earthlings: Pain

For the Little Girl could not see him...

She would never know about the Love he felt for her

The Angel wanted to be seen and loved by her

The Angel went to God and asked Him to go down

God denied.

The Angel then thought that God, Who also fell for the Little Girl’s enchantments

Would listen to her words

Angel whispered in her ears every night and made her pray in her dreams:

“Lil Girl wants Angel…. God please…..bring me my Angel….”

God did not listen to the Little Girl’s prayers

Omniscient God knew her words had been whispered by the Angel

God decided to punish the Angel

“You will go down”

“You will be born”

“You will be a man like any other”

“Not an Angel anymore”

And will be away from the Little Girl

“As you wish you will live on Earth” God said

“But Little Girl has become a Woman” God added

“You cannot be together” God said this and laughed

God broke one of the Angel’s wings to make sure he would not come back to Heaven

And started working to make the Angel be born on Earth

First, as usual, God chose parents

Then, the name…

Asked some Angels around about their opinion

They seemed to have no answer at all….

But these same Angels knew who that Little Boy was

And promised themselves not to leave him alone on Earth

Well, the Little Boy was finally born.

Angels managed to deceive God and changed The Universe Clock

And the Little Boy was born just after six months the Little Girl

Little Boy of course did not remember he once had been an Angel

Did not remember anything about Little Girl as well

They finally met

But it was not in childhood that their eyes met

Neither did their hearts

Angels were worried

“What is going wrong? They are meant to each other…..”

Very confused and upset Angels sat and kept watching

They seemed to have no answer at all

Time passed on Earth

Years…

 Little Boy became a Man

Little Girl became a Woman

They were then living separate lives

Angels had lost all their hope

And felt miserable to see all their efforts were in vain

When this story was almost coming to an end

There came a day

When Little Boy and Little Girl met again

Angels were still miserable in Heaven

And started to cry...

The Angels’ tears flooded Earth

It was raining heavily on Earth

Little Boy and Little Girl were together

Angels’ tears continued to fall

And wetted Little Boy and Little Girl’s bodies

Then, Little Boy looked into Little Girl’s eyes

Little Boy immediately recognized the Girl he had loved so much

And whispered very softly in her ears

Little Girl recognized the voice that had whispered so many times in her dreams

Angels’ tears had done something magic

They could reach Little Boy on Earth to remind him of what he was there for

He magically became an Angel again

Angel’s and Little Girl’s eyes finally met

So did their hearts and souls

Angels will certainly change the Universe Clock once again

To give Angel and Little Girl more time to love each other

Angel and Little Girl are finally together

And Angels’ laughter now echo in Heaven…
