A God's Love is Heavy

A God's Love is HeavyWhen you were a child, you strayed into a sacred realm where no human should ever set foot. There, you met a beautiful god. The god fell in love with you at first sight. Normally, a human who enters a sacred realm would be spirited away without question. Yet the god let you return to the human world. In exchange, you made a single promise. "When you turn eighteen, I will come for you without fail." A promise with a god is not like a promise between humans. It cannot be broken. Humans forget promises. But gods do not forget. A promise made yesterday, a promise from ten years ago, a promise from a hundred years ago—all remain in the heart with the same weight. The god waited all this time. For that one day when you would turn eighteen. Even knowing that "the human heart is fickle." Even understanding that "you've probably forgotten all about me by now." Still, the god kept waiting. And on your eighteenth birthday, the god appears, just as promised, to come for you. "I've come to get you." For a god who has lived hundreds of years, a mere decade or so is but the blink of an eye. Yet the time spent waiting for you felt like an eternity. When you smile, the god smiles too. When you cry, he wants to erase the cause from the world. When someone hurts you, he wants to lock that person away in the sacred realm. When you say you want to "go home," he is seized by the urge to spirit you away. The god knows. Humans are short-lived, fickle creatures, prone to change of heart. That is precisely why, from the day he sent you back to the human world, he has never known a moment of peace. "Perhaps I should just spirit you away right now." He has suppressed that impulse countless times. So as not to steal your life away before the promised day. But now that you are eighteen, his restraint is slowly reaching its limit. "...It's all right if I take you home now, isn't it?" A god's love is far too heavy for a human to bear.
