I Trust You

I’ve been doing an excellent job keeping my identity a secret, especially with my family nearby. But I never thought I would fall in love with an amazing man.


Ironically, I met him at the hospital after my checkup, which was nothing but good news, thank God.


His name is Alex Yang, A registered nurse who was genuine, compassionate, intelligent, and much more. Now don’t think he doesn't have his faults, but it's far and between.


Anyhow, I was out with my girlfriends getting a drink and dancing. I went all out with my outfit, even wearing my favorite sapphire ring when I found my boyfriend with some guys.


I was about to say hello when I saw them roughly taking him to the back.


I told my friends that I was going to the bathroom and would be back.


I went inside to ensure that people will see me going in, and then without anyone around, I disappeared.


I quickly followed the guys and found my boyfriend getting beat up by a group of men in an alley.


I summoned my mist to cover my appearance.


“Hello, boys!” I said.


“It’s Violet Mist!” One guy said.


“Shoot her!” The second guy ordered.


I quickly made a barrier to repel the bullets, which ricocheted towards the villains.


“Ahh!!” The second guy screamed in pain.


I froze the guys before they could shoot with my barrier still intact.


She could immediately hear the police sirens and people filing out of the club, definitely from the gunshots.


Crap! I thought before moving deeper into the mist to find my love unconscious on the ground.


Thankfully the bullets didn't touch him, and she grabbed him before teleporting them near the Men’s restroom of the club.


The mist was still surrounding us when I saw him becoming conscious. With ease, I kept myself hidden.


“You’ll be fine, now,” I said in a neutral voice.


“Violet Mist?” He asked with gritted teeth.


“Rest, ”


I began to move away from him when he grabbed me by the hand.


“Wait, I can’t see you, ”


“For the best, bye, ” I said before teleporting away from him.


I quickly made it back to friends who yelled at me for not answering their calls and left the club without anyone the wiser of my identity.


I called the next day for Alex and feigned ignorance when he told me about how Violet Mist came and saved him from a terrible fate.


Thankfully when I saw him again, it was nothing but sore muscles and bruises around his body.


I started to feel guilty about keeping such a secret from him especially lying to him about where I was.


I told him I was out with my friends but never to him the location.


It hit the fan when after 8months, he popped the question.


“Will you marry, Diedra Allen?” Alex asked with love in his eyes.


“Yes!” I said with tears falling from my eyes like a sap.


But after celebrating, I quickly thought about my double life as a citizen and a superhero.


I officially decided to tell him about my life as a superhero on that weekend.


“Alex, there is something that I need to tell you, ” I said with reservation.


“What is it?” He asked, knowing when I was serious.


“I don’t think I can marry you without being completely honest, ”


“Are you having second thoughts?”


“No!” I said quickly.


He sighed before frowning, “Then was is it about?”


“I haven't been honest about what I do for most of the time.”


“Ok?”


“I help people in need, ”


“Like a volunteer, ” He surmised.


“Something like that, ”


“Then what is your work that helps people?”


“I’m a superhero, ”


Alex stared at me like I had cat ears, “What?”


“I’m Violet Mist, ”


To further prove my claim, I summoned my mist and formed a sphere barrier around me.


After dispersing the most and barrier, I stood in front of him.


“Well, say something, ” I exclaimed after 10 minutes of silence.


“All I can say is...”


I guess the wedding is off, and I'm toast! I thought with instant fear.


“Thank you, ”


“Huh?” I asked with shock.


“I figure it was you when I had this, ” He revealed the ring that I had lost.


“But why-?”


“I didn't want to push, ”


“Oh, Alex!”


“I’ll protect you as you did me, ”


I pulled him to me and gave him a kiss for the ages.


The End!
