The wind was blowing, the sky is cloudy and the first drops of rain fell to start a great rain... He could see all that from his seat, he could see how the rain was getting stronger and stronger, the City of Holwe was invaded once more by rain...

Demon: I'm here Rise, not out there...

Demon looked seriously at Rise who was just trying not to make eye contact with him, they already had some time in silence since he heard him say something that was serious and worrying...

Rise: Obviously he heard everything... Right?...

Demon: Yes...

Rise: Gosh!...

Demon: You could have gone to the police and reported this...

Rise: I know... But, I have...

Demon: Fear... It's common or that's what it created, I've never understood mortals very well to say...

Rise: Well... It's normal that you don't know or understand "mortals", you are an Angel n-...

Demon: It was... It was an Angel... Now I'm just a simple exile, I'm not a Mortal, I'm not a Devil and I'm not an Angel... Actually I just know that I'm neither of those things, but the only thing I don't know... It's what I am...

Rise: Oh...

Demon: But that's another issue... The important thing the yours, it's not good that someone has tried to hurt you...

Rise: Umm...

Demon: It is also something obvious that it is that stranger who is outside looking towards the entrance of my Company...

He sweated cold, that he did not know... But the question is, how did know that Demon Light?...

Rise: How do you K-know that?...

Demon: An employee told me, he came to my office to tell me that he saw a stranger looking towards the PDT entrance... He seems to be waiting for someone...

Rise: Oh no... Who t-told him that?...

Demon: Raúl Diamond... He's a PDT Guard, he's always guarding the entrance, he's the only one actually guarding the entrance...

The young man was only surprised, Raúl had already seen that man... Can't I have told him? He felt angry... Maybe, he shouldn't be angry... He just forgot to tell him that detail, besides the He kindly accompanied him home... He couldn't be angry with Raúl, he was a great friend... Somewhat clumsy and forgetful... But he's a great friend...

Rise: I didn't expect that... Besides, he accompanied me to my house after what happened, thanks to him nothing happened to me...

Demon: That's good... But luck doesn't last forever...

Rise: I know...

He remembered that he could not ask Raúl to accompany him to his House... Yes, luck does not last...

Demon: I'm interested in knowing more about this... But we can talk about it while we work...

He put some papers on the Young Man's Desk...

Rise: Is it the reports?...

Demon: Yes...

The Secretary watched as the Chief approached a chair of those that were always outside, for those who waited their turn... He placed it near his desk, the Exiled Angel sat on it and began to review the papers... Rise he remembered what his boss said "I am interested in knowing more about this... But we can talk about it while we work...", Was I going to help you?...

Rise: Umm... Boss, I can do this alone, you don't have to help me...

Demon: Tell that to the back papers...

Rise looked behind him, he could see some more papers... Well, it was not bad to receive help... But, help from the Chief, that is not... He was hired for this and many other things... But, he preferred keep quiet... He really needed the help, even if the help came from his Boss and that was rare for him... He really needed it...

Rise: T-Thank you...

Demon: There is no reason... so you can leave earlier, that would be fine for you... Since at night it is more obvious that the same or worse will happen to you...

That did not encourage him, that makes him feel bad... But he was very right, he sighed and took the first roles... He smiled for him, Demon Light was not as bad as he used to appear... Yes, he was a serious man and cold, he conveyed fear and he was a man who drowns in money... But the time he had been with him... I had seen that he was someone kind who used to care about each employee, although he did not show it much...

He could see that in his bad temper and cold gaze, that there was still something of what an Angel used to do... Even if he said he was no longer one... For many employees he used to be an Angel in their lives, perhaps because He helped many... And he hired many without studies, without a degree... He taught them how everything worked, he taught them so much... How he helped many to return to their studies and finish these... For many Demon Light was the worst scum, but for the few who knew him as he really was... They said otherwise... For those reasons some employees were very loyal to PDT and the Owner of this Company...

Rise: Boss... Can I ask you something?...

Demon: You already have...

Rise: !...

Demon: I'm not serious... You can ask me anything...

Rise: I... Well, you see... I've always wanted to know, why was he Exiled from Heaven?...

Demon:.....

He had asked something that maybe it was not good to ask, Rise felt that he should have shut up and stayed with the doubt... Maybe he was very trusting...

Rise: Sorry, I shouldn't a-ask that...

Demon: Curiosity killed the cat... Many people say that, but hey... I was exiled from heaven because I fell in love...

Rise: He fell in love... That's not a sin or a reason to exile him...

Demon: Here is not a sin Rise... But in Heaven yes... The bad thing about this is that I fell in love with a Mortal, a young woman with long hair, very beautiful... I was not the only who knew fell in love with her...

Rise: !...

Demon: My Brother also fell in love with her... We fell so low, what once united us broke and we became the worst rivals... In the end, God knows everything... He exiled us from heaven, we stopped be Angels the day he dictated it...

Rise: I didn't know I had a Brother...

Demon: He's dead, he died in the fall to the ground...

Rise: Oh, I'm sorry... And the Young Woman?...

Demon: He died like any mortal, he grew old and died... Of course he married and had children... Etc, etc... In reality, her love never belonged to us, but her great friendship yes...

Rise: I see... She was not the Young One who would spend all her time with you, maybe there is someone else who will...

He laughed softly, Demon looked at the Secretary with a smile...

Demon: You're right...

Rise: Yes... But, do you regret what happened?...

Demon: You're very curious... And no, I don't regret it...

Rise: I thought you'd be sorry...

Demon: No... Besides, what's done is done... I shouldn't regret it because I chose that, that path was the one I wanted...

Rise: I'm glad you think so...

Demon: I will never regret having loved, as if I sinned... Maybe the fall hurt, but I don't regret it... Actually, with all this... I mean the opportunity to live with other people or beings, he mediated the opportunity to show that he not only served for God, to be an Angel... He served for many other things...

Rise: And he showed it... He is the Owner of the Company, he said... Of the PDT Companies... He is someone with a lot of money, he demonstrated many things...

Demon: Yes... But enough talking, we better hurry with the work...

Rise: Yeah...

He grabbed the papers again, they had to finish quickly and on time...

Demon: Don't think I have forgotten about your problem, it really is something serious...

And that's where he lost hope that the Chief had forgotten that topic, bad luck struck today... Although not so much, this day he had the opportunity to speak with Demon Light as friends...

****City of Crystal****
****Castle of Crystal {Castle of the Royal Rai Family}****

Light was common in that City, she knew that well... The crystals of different colors made the City shine and did honor to its Name, City of Crystal... Nice, that's what she and everyone thought... She simply looked at the painting of the Rai Royal Family... He smiled and with a simple movement of his hand, ordered that they remove that horrible painting... He did not want to see the faces of his parents for all his infinite existence... He could see how they placed the new Family painting, where only she and her brothers were... Much better...

-It's about time they will remove that painting... It has been there for a long time...-

Glora: Catasto... Yes, you're right... How about the new one?...

The blonde looked at the picture, very cute... Catasto Reyes, a calm and smiling Woman... A famous singer with a lot of talent, seldom used to visit her friend the Queen of the City of Crystal...

Catasto: It's very cute...

Glora took a beautiful diamond that had been dropped from the old painting, it was very bright... It was white...

Glora: I'm glad to know that he's cute and I'm glad to know that I won't see my parents' faces once again...

He could only see how the pieces of diamonds fell like dust... Glora had applied a lot of pressure on such a beautiful stone... The Singer sighed and approached the Queen...

Catasto: Sometimes he doubted that you are Human...

Glora: The Rai Royal Family was never Human...

Catasto: That explains a lot...

Maybe she and her siblings weren't Human, but they had feelings... Not like her parents, who seemed to be made of stone, at least it made her happy to know that those two were dead...

Glora: We are not Human... But we think and feel like them, some... Also this is common around here...

Catasto: Take it for granted...

Glora: What a strange world is ours...
