Souberette could sense something was different with her little icicle Nova who was always under th bye shimmer of stars in a trance.
As if he was waiting to feel something within or someone. Night after night she watched him under Gemini as Monotone slept.
Not even a whisper of wind kissed Souberette's face as she lingered, listening to Nova's heart.
"Who do you evade my child? They're sincere." Souberette steps into Nova's head smiling as she touches his shoulder.
"Mom!" He says looking up.
"Sorry just a lot on my mind."
"And heart, I sensed it."
Nova was thinking about the Capri Heaven who had begun to keep her distance. Shadow Walkers started to linger more near Feng shui tiptoeing around its edge once word shot through the winds of Nova splashing around. It was forbidden for celestials to encounter such a wander.
Nova was always steps ahead. Duality was in his blood. Because he was born under the stars as an Opposite. He had the ability to manipulate vision. Right under the Shadow Walkers nose Nova submerged himself into Feng shui.
"Let me catch a vibe from your vibrations, don't be hesitant no more veiled expressions, if you know, you know the moon is sacred. Ooh baby it's never felt like this your love is my sanctuary." Nova croons rising slowly out of the water as Heaven appears in a shimmer of waves with a smile leading a call and response.
"I fell into your orbit." Heaven
"It feels like Nirvana." Nova
"Dancing under the stars." Heaven
"Living in the moment." Nova
"Living in the moment " Heaven
"Two hearts." Both
"One sky for love reflects the thing beloved." Heaven
"and I find myself in Feng shui floating." Both
The call and response is interrupted by an unfamiliar motion in Feng shui.
"It's not safe for us here under Gemini." Heaven reminds Nova
Heaven wasa different kind of Shadow Walker, she was a sea dweller who walked Monotone during the day as a regular child.
The celestials called her Capri. A solitaire protector who submerges themselves in your soul and steals your heart.
When the moon appeared high in the sky she'd transition into a Capri.
A guardian of Dahlia, one who guards the threshold on the opposite end of Monotone.
Capri were known to be mischievous yet trusting with the ability to disarm without deceit.
Their strengths weren't presented physically.
They appeared in their minds and hearts.
Like water they balanced access in and out.
"You enjoy controlling time?" Heaven lingers nearby in the water.
"No, I manage it well." Nova side eyed Heaven.
"Control!" Raising from the water as her tail evaporated into the atmosphere.
Sauntering towards Nova with bare feet.
"Tomato, tomato." Nova says with a grin and then turning his attention to Heavens feet.
"Gold feet and black toenails, how quintessential." Nova smirks.
"Such a smart ass!" Heaven said with sass
"Language" Souberette inserts herself, eyeballing Heaven then signalling to her son Nova.
"Ma'am!" Heaven says with a bow.
Souberette knew all too well about Capri and threw wind to caution when it came to her flesh and blood.
Forbidding Nova to ever come to the Feng shui without a proper escort.
Serenade evaded the conversation with Souberette because he knew his son had come of age.
"Souberette, he felt his heartbeat for the very first time." Serenade says removing cotton from the clouds above out of Nova's long Purple and white ombres.
"You're just a child Nova!" Souberette directed her attention to Nova.
"I know but mom..." Nova whined.
It was a tug of war between the good and the bad.
While Heaven lingered seeking to bond with Nova under the stars.
Souberette wanted to keep him a child for as long as possible.
Afraid that he would carry the weight of Monotone on his shoulders one day.
Disappointment sat with Souberette who was afraid of letting go of her one and only growing boy Nova.
Serene and Misery didn't interfere with Souberette's nurturing.
Even though they didn't agree with her being so overbearing.
"You can't help who you're attracted to Souberette, you and I know better than anyone." Serene appears behind Souberette who's looking into the Gemini moon above.
"This is true, but a Capri? That'll be such an evasion of worlds. What will come of such a bond?" Souberette had grown aggravated with Serene's input Serene sensed it, being more considerate with her words.
"Understand that we all unite in harmony when time in the universe allows our root to grow and spread out into ourselves then onto others." Serene said as she evaporated into the atmosphere.
"As above so below, yeah yeah yeah." Souberette said to herself.
This didn't stop Nova from sneaking out into the night to catch a vision from his new visitor who enjoyed the waves just as much as he.
"Water never moves it flows." Heaven softened her tone as she ascended from Feng shui.
"It ripples and washes." Nova said with his mind eavesdropping in Heavens thoughts.
"Refreshing." She said as Nova plunged in from the far side near the shores of Dahlia.
"Why are you always so anxious and in a rush to feel the depths?" She speaks swimming closer.
"Why are you always near doing the same song and dance? What do you seek?" Nova countered with his eyes fixated on the young Capri who had beautiful golden horns, feminine eyes and an full pouting lips.
Heaven's body was part shadow walker, part fish.
Her look was androgynous.
Her head sometimes appearing under the moonlight like a black pearl floating in the Feng shui.
During the day she was just a little 11 year old girl with 2 curly golden ponytails full of glee with a zest for life.
As a Capri her top half was a little girl while her lower half is orange and red scales with a yellow fin at the end that clapped against the water.
"Royalty and loyalty. It's written in the stars." Heaven continued.
"What makes you so certain that I would be loyal to you?" Nova asked swimming closer
eye to eye with Heaven.
"I can hear your heart beat." Heaven says disappearing into Feng shui splashing away.
And for the first time in his young life Nova followed his heart, Heaven under Gemini in Feng shui.
