The Goddess

Even if Little Fox's life was quite low when he was young, there was an individual who helped breathe life into him. She was the sole reason why he is still alive today. She was omniscient and luminous, just like a supremely powerful Goddess from the heavens, sent just to keep Little Fox alive. So Little Fox calls her Goddess.

Goddess came from a really rich family. Her dad was Irish but her mom was Japanese/Chinese. She came to Malaysia with her family. Like Little Fox, she had no siblings as well but unlike Little Fox's parents, hers was a lot more caring and understanding, while giving her a free rein in her life. She was brought up in a way where her parents allowed her to get whatever she wanted, provided if she worked towards that by her own means, without their help. If she wanted to buy an expensive doll, she would have to find ways to source for the money, be it selling her unwanted items or working for it or else she would have to live without it. It's due to that upbringing that she managed to become fiercely independent, resourceful but at the same time compassionate and highly sensitive.

She approached Little Fox one day, out of the blue while Little Fox was with one of his friends when he was 13 (she is the friend's friend) and asked Little Fox if he would like to give a relationship a try. The trial lasted for 5 years. At first, being Little Fox, he did not respond much to what Goddess did. He thought she was just a friend. But this friend would somehow or rather make him talk about his feelings, himself and what he wanted, and his goals, injecting life into him by making him feel valued. She would trust him, and tell him all of her deepest secrets. She would bring him out for walks at the garden or at KLCC as well as tea sessions at her house. This would happen a few times in a month. Little Fox did nothing to invite her back or reacted to any of these, he just allowed her to fuss over him. He felt nothing for the whole of the first year. But she never gave up. Eventually by the start of the 2nd year, Little Fox started feeling another person and trusting her for the first time. He felt warmth and this was the only reason why he is alive. She would cry on his shoulders and tell him her problems at her international school, and her friends would also tell him that she would never really talk about her problems or even remotely look upset in front of others.

She was extremely beautiful, to the point that she modeled for a TV commercial out of goodwill for her father's business associates. She was also required to attend dinners and ball parties to placate her fathers' business associates, while studying, counselling her friends and fussing over Little Fox all at the same time. Occasionally she would go back to Japan for months at an end, leaving Little Fox alone and hoping that the days would go faster so thats she would be back. Little Fox now felt that he was protecting a precious gem. But in reality, he was far too weak to protect the Goddess. It was her protecting him most of the time. Goddess also had a really weird rule: that she is not to see any of Little Fox's friends or family, nor is Little Fox supposed to talk about her to his schoolfriends. Little Fox bragged about her and he was ridiculed for it. She got really upset that he broke his promise a few times but forgave him in the end.

She was Little Fox's only friend for many years, 5 to be exact. He would tell her his problems, and she would explain why, what is that person thinking and how to deal with it in great detail. Eventually, he would tell her of every problem he had with people, and she would explain but he would never dare to apply them. She never showed any frustration but only smiled and understood, like how a mother would. However, he would always apply them 4-5 months late, but he did and it was permanent. She taught him manners and how to speak to people. She trained him to observe people and body languages. She taught him etiquette. She was like a mother, sister and a girlfriend in one. Her love for him was unconditional and unparalleled.

However she would always shy away from sex and Little Fox understood that sex would hurt her as she would always react in a traumatized way when Little Fox made approaches. He was just curious, and he would never wanted to hurt her. Over the years, Little Fox moulded him to be her opposite. While she was domineering, he would be submissive. While she pretended to be brash, he would act cool and calm. He would cheer her up when she was down, and she would do the same. They would know what the other was thinking exactly. Little Fox even planned on marrying Goddess even though he knew he would never make enough to really marry her as her husband. However, things were not meant to go the way it was planned.

Little Fox's memories of him being raped was blanked out by his tiny little brain. Because of this he was always a child inside, one that could not grow up at all due to this. He always wanted to be a child forever even though he was already 17-18. Goddess saw this and was very unhappy. She gave him many chances to grow up, be independent and prove himself that it was not due to her influence that he turned out to be a big baby, a retard. She knew that he did not want to grow up because of her. She gave him more than enough chances, and yet he failed to prove himself because he had no idea on how to conduct himself outside of her expectations. Worst of all, he knew what was going on and could not do anything to stop it.

She also had a very odd rule: since she was bisexual, both Little Fox and Goddess are allowed to have sexual pleasure: as long as its with the same gender. This means she could make out with girls and Little Fox could make out with guys. She had a gay friend, whose dick Little Fox sucked because she made out with some girls. The whole situation made Little Fox feel awkward even though Goddess was okay with it. He felt nothing when he sucked it.

Goddess however, in a last effort to help Little Fox grow up, triggered Little Fox's sexual abuse memories and forced Little Fox to face them, before leaving Little Fox by breaking up and going back to Japan. Little Fox was left to fend for himself with all the sudden influx of realizations. Before this he was numb all the way and he had the constant feeling of wanting to be a child again. Everything was a daze to him, or so he taught until he faced what really happened to him. He didint really seek any counselling to deal with it but decided to hide it in his heart once more. It did help him grow up but a little. At the time of the breakup, Little Fox was in one of the biggest emotional mess in his life. He had a row with his childhood friend from tuition which made him even lonelier. Since Goddess and Little Fox could almost read each other's minds, the separation took a very heavy toll on Little Fox and he would have meltdowns, hallucinations, voices going through his head and him speaking back to them. It would take him years and an exceptionally kind soul to help him out of that, a few years later.

A year later after the breakup, Little Fox would hook up with gay men online to have sex with them because he knew this was the best way to hurt Goddess. Little did he know that at the end, he was the one that he was hurting the most, as he would feel revolted after every encounter. Despite hating the act and finding it disgusting Little Fox did it to "punish" himself and also her.

Goddess's parents saw Little Fox as their son and even offered to adopt Little Fox (which he refused at the end, he did not want to leave his family behind) but it was one of the few moments, and it was with them that Little Fox felt he belonged. Since Little Fox and Goddess were only childs, they had incest fantasies. So at the end, Little Fox lost everything and he had to remain that way for quite sometime.

Goddess said that Little Fox was not gay, he just wanted closure for his sexual abuse but to do that he has to face that part of him that he is most afraid. And she was right. There still is a part of Little Fox that he's very scared to face because its not him. And until he does he cannot grow up fully or integrate properly with human society. At the end, Little Fox discovered that Goddess was raped herself at a young age, around 6 by an uncle. The incident traumatized her greatly but at the same time propelled her to achieve what others find it impossible to achieve. She took multiple exams simultaneously, namely SPM and GSCE and scored wonderfully for them after months of study. Her memory and willpower was legendary and Little Fox yearned to embody that but he fails every time. That realization did drive him deeper into despair.

The breakup buried Little Fox into a deep hole which he could not climb out from for the next few years....
