Chapter four: Willow of the wisps
 
   Hugh finally broke my moment of confusion and spoke to me in a pleasingly calm voice, " Okay Monica I think I know what happened to you but you need to be open minded and be ready to answer some questions. Is that okay?" I nod briefly, and he sighs in relief.  He pulls out an old looking peice of paper, he unfolds it and places the open paper on the ground and turns it to face me. The words were faded but you could still make them out "Okay here's the first question what time are you from?"  he waits patiently for my response,  does he mean year? "I'm from two thousand seventeen."  he nods "do you enjoy life?"  not really but can I tell him that? Well if I want to find out what happened to me or at least get an idea of what happened I should answer truthfully "no not really, my life could have gone better but I was just one of those unfortunate souls born with an angel of misfortune by my side."  he looks at me with sadness in his eyes "Okay then something bad happened to you as a cherub or recently?"       "umm what does cherub mean?" he chuckles did I say something funny?  " cherub  means child or kid."  I feel really stupid now but I have to answer the question "yes.."  his eyes looked even sadder "may I ask what happened?"  Okay Monica this happened a long time ago just tell him, but he's a complete stranger so is it even a good idea to tell him he is helping me though.  As I was arguing with myself he spoke up "you seem hesitant you don't have to tell me now you can tell me on your own time, but good news I think I know what happened."  I looked up at him,  if he knows what happens then maybe he knows how to get me home!  "so you know how to get me back?!"  his face went grim and he looked at me with sympathy in his eyes "let me explain....  There's these thing  called Willow of the wisps and they drag souls that wallow in fear and disspar ethier to the future or the past. They do this to help change the fate of the person who's suffering to help them live a life of joy, they do this because they suffered in there time so they try to prevent others from suffering the same fate as themselves however...... You can never return to your own time you are stuck here till you die. "  I felt tears well up in my eyes, so I can never see my aunt or uncle ever again I'm stuck here!? I couldn't hold the tears back any futher" not to make you feel worse but if you don't change your fate and stay stuck living in regret, fear, and sadness then they will drag your soul to the depths of hell,you would never know the joys of heaven. "  I started crying even harder I felt loneliness almost cold, but then something warn embraced me" it's okay to cry I'm here if you ever need a shoulder to cry on okay? " I think I cried myself to sleep that night but that's okay I haven't cried in a while I just have to get through life, right?
