The Lost Luna Is In Our Midst (Moon Goddess)

The fruit vendor chimed in, “Do let us know if you need any help. We’ll keep an eye out for her.”

Ella nodded appreciatively but quickened her pace. The questions continued as she passed by the toy stand.

“Is Luna okay? Where could she be?” the vendor asked, concern evident in her eyes.

“I hope you find her soon! Keep us posted!” shouted the baker from a distance, concern lining his face.

As Ella approached the sweet shop’s exit, the kind old woman called out, “Take care, dear! Let us know if you need assistance.”

Ella managed a small faked smile, “Thank you. I’ll keep you updated.” The market women, their worry palpable, watched her leave, exchanging concerned glances among themselves.

…………

Ella’s heart raced as she approached Cory, who was engrossed in conversation with a vendor outside the market.

“Cory!” she called out, her voice shaky. “Have you seen Luna? Have you seen my daughter? Have you seen our daughter? I can’t find her anywhere! I looked around, but I still couldn’t find my only daughter!”

Cory turned towards her, his brow furrowed in confusion. “What do you mean you can’t find her? Where did you last see her? And why did you let her off your sight, love?” His voice sounded concerned with a hint of confusion in it.

“Oh my moon! We were at the market, and I was talking to the vegetable vendor, we were both negotiating the prices.

When I finished, she was gone, I don’t even know when she ran off. I have looked everywhere, but I can’t find her,” Ella explained, desperation evident in her eyes.

Cory’s expression shifted from confusion to concern. “Alright love, we will take it slowly, stay calm. We’ll find her, I promise to find our daughter.

By the way, did you check the nearby stalls and sellers?”

Ella nodded quickly, “Yes, I did.

I asked everyone, but no one has seen her. I’m getting really worried, Cory. I don’t even know what to do!”

Cory took a deep breath, trying to maintain composure because he was the man. “Alright, let’s not panic. You know how Luna is, she might have just wandered off. She might just be playing in an amusement park, or she has probably gone into the forest like usual.

Don’t worry, okay? We’ll search together.”

Ella smiled internally, happy that Cory didn’t suspect anything. If she wants to be fast, she could have easily summoned a guardian angel but that would definitely make Cory suspicious of her.

“The longer it takes, the more convincing it becomes!” She murmured under her breath softly.

As they began retracing Luna’s steps through the market, Cory’s worry escalated. “How could you let this happen? Luna is just a child! You should have tried to pay attention to her, even when you were attending to the vegetable seller! My daughter is just six years old, she shouldn’t be left alone!”

Fake tears welled up in Ella’s eyes, and she boldly defended herself, “It is not my fault love.

I was negotiating the price with a Vegetable seller. How was I supposed to know that she would wander off? It happened so quickly, Cory. We need to focus on finding her. Let’s stop passing the blame. ”Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

Cory’s frustration was palpable, but he nodded in agreement. “Fine, let’s keep looking. We’ll cover more ground if we split up. You go that way, and I’ll check this site. Keep calling her name.”

Ella nodded, her voice trembling as she called out for Luna. As they continued the search, the tension between them lingered, a mix of fear for Luna’s safety and the strain of the situation weighing heavily on their shoulders.

……

In the heart of the enchanting forest, Luna marveled at the vibrant hues of the flora surrounding her. Unbeknownst to her parents, she had wandered away, lured by the enchanting melodies of the unseen creatures that called the forest their home.

In the quiet clearing, Luna’s curiosity led her to a group of colorful butterflies dancing in the dappled sunlight. Her eyes lit up with joy as she extended her tiny hand toward them. To her amazement, the butterflies fluttered around her, their delicate wings creating a mesmerizing spectacle.

“Hello, little friends! Do you know the way back to the market? I think I have lost my way,” Luna asked with a giggle, as if expecting a response from her newfound companions. The butterflies, seemingly understanding her, swirled in patterns, guiding her toward the familiar path.

As Luna ventured deeper into the forest, a gentle rustle in the bushes caught her attention. A family of rabbits emerged, their soft fur blending with the earthy tones of the surroundings. Luna crouched down, her eyes sparkling with wonder.

“Hey there, fluffy friends! I’m looking for my parents. Can you help me? Can you show me where they are?” Luna whispered, her words carrying an innocent sincerity. The rabbits, sensing her gentle nature, hopped closer and nudged her playfully. Luna, interpreting their gestures as a sign, followed their lead, guided by the whimsical dance of her newfound rabbit companions.

Further into the woods, the melodious chirping of birds echoed through the trees. Luna tilted her head, trying to decipher their songs. In response, a group of colorful birds perched on nearby branches, as if forming an avian choir just for her.

“Hello, beautiful birds! Can you sing me a song to guide me home? Or better still, should we sing together?” Luna asked, her eyes filled with a childlike wonder. The birds, as if understanding her plea, orchestrated a harmonious melody, filling the forest air with enchanting tunes.

As Luna continued her journey, various woodland creatures – squirrels, deer, and even a wise old owl – became her companions, communicating in their unique ways. She chatted with them, asking for directions and sharing her tales of the world.

In the midst of this magical communion with nature, Luna’s laughter echoed through the forest, forming an invisible bond between her and the creatures of the woods. Unbeknownst to her, the forest responded to her innocence, guiding her steps with a symphony of whispers and rustles, ensuring her safe passage through its mystical realm.

As Ella and Cory frantically searched through the bustling market, Luna found herself in a serene clearing, captivated by the play of sunlight filtering through the leaves. Little did she know that her innocent exploration would intertwine with the destiny of another.
