The fluffy eyelashes slowly lifted with a faint shadow. Not knowing what to do, Tavisha only felt that her body was fresher than usual.
"My bear?" Tavisha continued to feel for whatever was beside her. But, there was nothing there apart from the soft, furry fabric.
Realizing her teddy bear was missing and that something was different, Tavisha finally got up with her eyes perfectly rounded.
"My bear..." Tavisha's words trailed off after she was sure that her teddy wasn't there.
"Tavisha Aphrodite?! Have you come to your senses? Finally... all the residents are worried about you, especially Vi Rhea and Ve Rhea. They didn't want to eat for a few days."
Tavisha was confused by the person who suddenly entered her room. Already the design of her room was strange, the sheets she used made her body itchy, and now she saw an unknown person calling her Tavisha Aphrodite.
"Who are you? My name is not Tavisha Aphrodite, and where am I now? This is not my room. Where are my mother and father?"
"Mom? Father? Who are they? I don't recognize that name."
Tavisha took some time to digest what was happening to her. She slowly got up and got off the bed. But, "Aaaarrggh!" Tavisha flew free and fell unconscious on the grass.
In the darkness, Tavisha continued to search for what happened. In her search, little by little the shadows of the previous incident were seen again. However, it was only her parents that Tavisha was looking for. "Mom!!! Dad!!! Where are you?"
Tavisha's movements stopped when a strange voice entered her ears. "Who are you?!"
The voice was getting more and more real and closer.
"Hey! Who are you?!" Tavisha's body began to tremble.
Now it was not just a voice that could be heard, but a blue light that could dazzle Tavisha's eyes.
"Enough! I can't go on like this! I want to go home. I want to see my parents and my siblings. Please!"
The light and the voice did not go away. The more Tavisha pleaded, the more real they became.
"You need not fear Azucena Tavisha Sanariqa. You are me, and I am you. Now we are one life."
Tavisha widened her eyes in shock when she saw a butterfly speaking in front of her.
"It turns out that the blue voice and light are you! What do you want? Why am I here? Why are you talking? And it's not like I have good intentions towards you, but why are you keeping me in the dark like this?!"
Tavisha's emotions were running high like never before. All she wanted was to see her parents, not a strange butterfly like that.
"Calm down Tavisha, I will answer all your questions. But you have to agree on something."
"Whatever the deal is I'll do it, as long as all my questions are answered."
"Okay, since you agreed to it, I'll tell you everything. First, I don't want anything other than cooperation. Second, you are here because a miracle chose you. Third, I am Tavisha Aphrodite who can turn into a butterfly. Fourth, I have no evil intentions, rather I have good intentions just like yours."
Slowly Tavisha's emotions subsided after hearing answer after answer spoken by the blue butterfly earlier.
But still, millions of questions were accumulating in her mind.
"Tavisha Aphrodite? Isn't that the name that the strange woman said earlier?"
"Yes, that is my name. Now that name will be attached to your soul. Because you have entered my body."
"Then, what about my body? Don't you have the heart to leave it in the ocean?"
The blue butterfly laughed intriguingly. "Take it easy Tavisha, your body is already in your room. You are safe and I will take your place. So, there's no need to worry."
"But why are you doing this to me?!"
"Helen Rhea will explain the rest."
Instantly the blue light disappeared along with the butterfly. Making Tavisha panic and continue to scream the butterfly's name which was the same as her name.
"Tavisha Aphrodite! Are you okay?"
From that moment on, Tavisha realized that she was really in someone else's body. This time she could not rebel, she would only live her life with the help of Helen Rhea.
"Helen, I'm fine. Can you explain what happened just now?"
"Tavisha, I know that you are not Tavisha Aphrodite. And you just fainted after falling out of bed. I understand your ignorance because it was the first time. But take it easy, as your right hand I will tell you what you don't know."
"But, why would I faint just from falling off the bed?"
"This is Umbrielle Rhea's world, not yours. While at home, the soles of your feet must always be attached to a piece of cloth made of bird feathers. Otherwise, you will fall."
"Why is it like that?"
Helen got up and shook out the long blue curtains. "Because we're up in the trees. All the houses in the world are the same, none of them spread out on the grass."
Tavisha was surprised to see that, "So I fell from this height! But why didn't I die? Isn't this high up?" as her interest in Umbrielle Rhea's world became more and more apparent, Tavisha got up and remained sitting on the bed.
"Because your body has been protected by the blue light inside the bodies of the guards here, including Tavisha Aphrodite who is now in another world."
"Guardians? Where are the guards? There are only a few butterflies here, even outside there are full of butterflies. Which guards are they?"
"Yes, those are the real guards. I told you before that Umbrielle Rhea's world is not the same as yours."
Tavisha was silent. Her mind was churning to keep digesting her new world.
"One question is very important and I can't put it off for later, why is Tavisha Aphrodite willing to sell her body and enter my body? Does she want to feel how to be a human in my world? Or does she just want to try being me, who likes to be lazy? Is she tired of her world?!"
Helen smiled at Tavisha's string of questions. However, her tears suddenly fell over her smiling face.
"Tavisha Aphrodite is seriously ill, and if she allows her life to continue, she will be further hurt by her weakness in protecting the people here. There was no other choice given by the magic but to switch souls. And after that the magic chose you as the future queen of the world of Umbrielle Rhea, replacing Tavisha Aphrodite who has many weaknesses."
