《Our Ancient Love》Chapter 22: We are family
Advertisement
My dad clears his throat before he starts talking. "We saw him through the camera."
I open my mouth in shock.
"You must have forgotten that we have security cameras installed around the house in case someone breaks into the house when we're not home or while we're sleeping," my mom says as she points to the different cameras around the room.
I open my mouth to say something, but instead I start coughing.
"My phone notified me that there was movement in the dining room so I opened up the app and I saw you holding your bagel. And then I saw the boy walking behind you," my mom says.
"We were both confused about what was going on. We thought we were just seeing things. But then we saw you both walking back upstairs." My dad looks at me intensely and I feel my heart dropping.
"In that moment we were VERY disappointed. But later on your father asked if we knew him from somewhere because he looked oddly familiar. I told him that we probably did, but maybe from a long time ago."
"Have we met him before?" my dad asks as he leans forward.
I tap my fingers on the arms of the couch and look at them nervously. "Y-yes."
"When and where?" My mom takes a sip of her tea before looking back at me.
"I think he can explain it better than I can," I say as I get up and walk towards the stairs.
"Wait he's here?!" my dad asks loudly.
I hear a thump from upstairs.
I nod my head and sprint up the stairs. When I come back to the top of the stairs, I'm holding Ahk's hand.
"Your dad's yelling startled me so I sat up, not realizing that I was still under the bed," Ahk covers his forehead with his hand.

Ahk looks over at my parents and stops walking. They were both staring at him.
"C'mon. We've already dug ourselves into a big enough hole," I softly whisper to him as I pull his arm.
I sit on the couch and he sits on the ground in between my legs.
"Y/N. Would you like to introduce us to your 'friend'?" my mom asks.
I gulp. "Mom and dad. This is Ahkmenrah."I pause. "My boyfriend."
I look down in embarrassment and can hear both of my parents gasp. I look back up and my dad looks like he just witnessed the most horrible thing.
"Well. We definitely weren't expecting that," my mom coughs. She takes a sip of her tea and gives Ahk a small smile. "It's very nice to meet you."
I smile that my mom was accepting this. I look over at my dad and he's staring at Ahk's face while giving him a confused looked.
"Sanura, is your dad alright," Ahk whispers.
"I don't even know," I say as I run my fingers through his curly hair.
"Are you in any way connected with Egyptians?" my dad asks.
"Yes I am actually. I was the King of Egypt over 3,000 years ago. Your daughter was my wife," Ahk answers.
"I feel like that's a lie, but at the same time, I feel like I remember living in a beautiful Egyptian palace. In fact, I remember you both dancing together," my mother says.
"Well, Ahk isn't lying. You both DID see us dancing together in a palace. We all had a past life," I say. "Including Sandy."
My parents quickly look at Sandy and she just yawns and lays on her side.
"Y/N, how do you remember this," my dad asks.

"Ahk reminded me and I actually started having a few dreams about us." I put my hand on Ahk's shoulder.
"Then how was he able to remember everything without anyone telling him?" my mom asks.
"Neither of you were born into royalty. I was. Anyone who was born into royalty automatically remembers their past life. Those not born into royalty will only remember their past life when someone who remembers their own past life reminds them. Then as time comes, all the memories come back to them." Ahk fininishes explaining and my parents look even more confused than before.
"The real question is is where did you even come from?" my dad questions. I chuckle under my breath.
"The museum."
"The museum that Y/N works at?"
"Yes."
My mom and dad look at each other.
My mom nods and then they look back at us. They both stand up and walk towards us.
My dad stops in front of Ahk and stares down at him. Ahk looks at him nervously and I can hear my heart beating faster and faster. Suddenly a big smile appears on my dad's face and he opens up his arms.
"Welcome back," he says.
Ahk stands up to hug him. I stand up and walk over to my mom to look at Ahk. He shrugs and then smiles. I giggle. My mom goes on the other side and hugs Ahk too. I cross my arms and smile.
"C'mon, group hug," my dad says as he stretches out his arm. I laugh and walk over to join the group hug.
It was such a beautiful and amazing thing to see both of my parents happy. I had expected them to be mad at me and probably ground me for the rest of my life. But the opposite happened. They felt at peace to know who Ahk was. The pieces of the puzzle of my life were all being put back together, and none of this would have happened if it weren't for Ahk coming back into my life.

A Girl and Her Food
When a lost girl wakes up without a name, she quickly finds herself alone in a way that people around her can’t fix. Without a real plan and desperate to find what’s wrong with her, she thrashes and bites to stay alive. But human beings are weak things, that band together for strength, no matter who we are. Now if only she could work up the courage to ask one question... It’s normal to get stronger when you drink the blood of monsters. Right? Things to expect: - A powerful but kinda neurotic and emotional protagonist, with some degree of weak to strong. Or maybe strong to stronger, honestly. She's pretty rational and practical about things but won't always make the best decisions, so be warned if you super-dislike characters doing dumb stuff for emotional reasons sometimes. - Lots of dialogue and characterization, especially as we get more into it. It's focused on a single POV, but there might be some sections of other POVs later on, I'm not sure right now. - Magic is on the softer side, but I'll try to keep things fleshed out enough to avoid any obvious "well-established magic could have seemingly instantly solved this problem" moments. - I didn't add the mystery tag because I feel like it implies that this is a detective novel or something, but the story is absolutely incredibly opaque at times. So you'll have the most fun if you go into it trying to puzzle out the nature of events before they're explicitly explained!😇 - Also, I added the genre for completion, but it's gonna take a while to get to the romance. Please wait warmly and have some tea. Participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge!
