Selene Goddess of the Moon

SELENE'S POV

The City of Avignon was recognized as part of France in just one century passed.

Back then, I was only known as Doctor/Professor Selena and lived in Avignon City. I was recognized as a young doctor who cured thousands of people in the said place.

Later on, I became a professor at one of the universities for medical majors, and then I met a young, energetic and full of passion student, Marie Thalina Alfaro. She was so amazed by my achievements and recognition at a young age. Thali used to bother me every day to teach her the secret of medicine that could cure every illness which I had been studying since I became a doctor.

Everything is just clear in my mind, her memories linger with me ever since.

In the year 1859, FRANCE

"Please, Selena, I will be good this time. I'll pass all my subjects! Just give me a hint about that medicine. A formula will do! Please!"

Thali pleaded.

"You are just a student, Thali, it is not easy to comprehend, just finish your studies in great numbers and maybe we can have a good talk again,"

I said while watching her cute gesture of disappointment, I am smiling within.

"Alright, then it's a deal, Sen!"

Thali said, confusing me about what she called me. I have been known as Selena all my life.

"Who's Sen?"

I confusingly ask.

"You! Selena is too long for me, Sen is much better, so now I will call you Sen instead."

Thali said, and then just walked away. I just smiled inside, such a cute kid, though I know she isn't that young for my age, as I am just 29 in my appearance and she is only 20.

Thali finished her studies and became an intern doctor in our City; I knew it was her most awaited time to get back to me about our deal.

When she knocks on the door, I can see how she was amazed to see how beautiful my house is inside, all my books were properly aligned on the shelves, which I bet she loves.

I started teaching Thali and I must admit we became very close. Thali then decided to live with me while finishing her studies on the amazing medicine I had created.

When I decide to live my life as a human, I need to act like one. My first-ever woman friend is Thali. Gust, on the other hand, has a mission that I ordered him to do, which is why he is not around.

Every forty-five years, I always flew out of the place I stayed in and then live again in another place with a different profession and personality, on that case, for the first time, it was so hard for me to do it, as much as I wanted to stay. I can't, though I don't want to hurt Thali, so before my 45th year here at Avignon, I taught her everything that she needed to know about the medicine and all my formula on how I created it. I gave it to Thali.

"Is it necessary to go Sen hmmm sob* sob*?"

Thali asked in tears, which I hated to see but I must endure it!

"I have a family in another country, and they need me. I'm so sorry, but please take care of what I teach you. Every formula is my treasure. Please keep it in your mind and heart. It will save a million lives in the future." I said, and then hugged Thali for the last time.

I can hear how Thali cried when I started to walk towards the door. I left the management of my house to Thali and when I was about to open the door, Thali ran towards me and hugged my back. I stiffened when I felt Thali's arms around me. "I will always remember you Sen, I love you."

Thali whispered, and then kissed me on my cheeks, which were almost near to my lips, and then ran away from me. I suddenly stopped moving, I could barely catch my breath, and my heart beat so fast. That feeling was so new to me. It took a minute before I recovered from it, but Thali never came back. She locked herself in her room so I decided to turn the knob and go. If I won't I will never be able to go anymore.

That was the last time we saw each other.

THE YEAR 2020

MARTHA'S POV

Since I overslept, I needed to move fast to prepare for my work since Ms Selene is expecting me to be there at 7 am. The driver is already outside waiting for me, so I don't have a choice but to move fast.

Good thing, I was used to it even before I was still working at the mall. I just fix myself or put a little makeup inside the car and I manage to look presentable in only thirty minutes.

After doing my stuff, I said my apologies to the driver and well greeted him with good morning, and then he smiled back and started to drive.

When we get to Ms. Selene's house, she is already on the couch waiting for me, damn! I am doomed now, goodness Martha, how can you be so irresponsible!

I silently yelled at myself.

Honestly, I don't get the point of going to her house and then to the office together when I can even go there and wait for her! Goodness!

"Good morning Ma'am"

I smilingly greeted her.

"Good morning"

She shortly responded.

I don't know but after she helped me that night, I feel safe now every time I am with her. So, even though I am really confused about this, me being with her going to the office, well, it is actually fine with me now. I must admit I kind of enjoy this every day, even though it was so hard earlier to find clothes to wear, I feel like I wanted to always be presentable for her.

She rides in the car first, then me, as usual. She is quiet as always but I was surprised when she suddenly spoke in the middle of our silence.

"I have an appointment at the hotel, so you don't need to come with me, just stay at the office and I'll be back before you go home."

She said while looking at her cell phone. I don't know what that is all about, though I thought I should be the one to find out her errands! Anyway, what rights do I have when I am just a mere secretary? Hmmm I don't know, I just felt pissed and I don't know why.

"Yes ma'am"

I just simply said.

Then after a few minutes, it was my phone that had just ringed and it was Valerie, so I answered it.

"Hey Val, how do you feel now?"

I asked with a smile.

"I'm good now; maybe I will be back at work very soon."

She said that made me smile even more.

"That's good to know! I kind of like your jokes, Val. Please be well, missed you. Bye."

I said, and then ended the call. I throw a glimpse at Ms Selene but she is still busy on her phone so I just ignore her this time.

When we arrived at the building, I suddenly smiled wide when I saw Gust at the entrance waiting for us.

"Gust, longtime no see!"

I couldn't help but hug and greet him.Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

"Long time no see Mar, you are getting prettier and prettier, huh?"

Gust said while teasing me.

"Well, same as you, you are getting PRETTY handsome every time I see you."

I said, and then we both chuckled.

I already know that Gust is gay, he actually admitted that to me when I had dinner with him and Jan.

We were in the middle of our catching up when Ms. Selene is already at my back.

"Hey my beautiful cousin nice to see you"

Gust said, greeting Ms. Selene, but she just simply smiles and then looks at Gust, who smiles back at her as well. I don't know, but seeing their eyes and gestures, it seems like they are talking with their minds.

We headed our way to the elevator to the office and when we got there, Gust and Ms. Selene entered the private room, so I was left outside and started doing my work.

SELENE'S POV

"So what's the update?"

I ask.

"We follow the information about where it is located but when we get there it's just a big space, others said there is a mansion there before but they couldn't talk more about it. There was a tragic incident to the family's owners of the house." Gust explained.

"So something happened there, even at least one person, and no one wants to say a thing?"

I asked again, as I couldn't believe that no one wanted to speak. I mean how serious that event was that even the people around seemed to be scared of talking about it.

"Yes, based on the same person we talked to, all the people inside the house that was used to be there, including the family itself, were murdered, and the whole house was burned down,"

Gust explained.

"Humans are more monsters than I expected, willing to kill, even slaughter their kind just to get what they want. It's fascinating, isn't it?"

I said, and then looked at Gust and he just shrugged at it.

"Well, then do everything to get the complete details. Who is the family and who's behind it! No one can say no to money... it's a human's weakness. Eventually, they will all talk. Money is still money, Gust." I said with crossed arms.

"Copy that boss, and by the way, Natasha will visit the Hotel at 3"

Gust said reminding me.

It suddenly changes my mood after hearing about Natasha's where about.

"That woman is no ordinary Sen, just be careful."

Gust said, trying to warn me.

I just looked and faced him with very serious eyes. Gust admits that every time I show this expression I mean death to someone.

"No ordinary thing is when I beheaded her, Agustin."

I seriously said that silenced him.
