The Sun, the Moon and the Dawn


        Apollo, the god of sun and Artemis, the goddess of moon fell in love with each other and decided to lived on the top of the highest mountain in the Philippines, the Mt. Apo. They lived there for a hundred years until Artemis gave birth to a twins, Hellos and Selene. Hellos inherented the power of Apollow while Selene inherented the power of Artemis. Hellos looked-like their father. She had a long straight blonde hair, a pair of hazelnut eyes and had a tanned skin. Selene looked-liked her mother who had a long curly dark hair, a pair of deep dark blue eyes and a skin as white as snow. The twins were very line and obedient and everyone win met them thought they must be the nicest girls in the world. The twins loved each other so much that they always held hands when they were together and vowed that they would never be parted and never keep a promise as long as they lived.
        As time goes by, the two lovely girls turned into a beautiful women. All men who say them fell in love immediately. One time, Hellos and Selene visited the field where they used to hang out whenever they're not busy in doing their responsible as a princess of sun and moon. While they were walking, Hellos noticed a man who was seriously looking at the sky. The man had a dark brown eyes, pointed nose and a red lips. He was totally handsome, thought Hellos. Hellos whispered to Selene what she saw and pointed the man. Selene agreed that the man was handsome. They went to the man and introduced themselves.
       "Hi! I'm Hellos and she's my twin Selene." Hellos said sweetly. 
       "Hello, beautiful ladies. I'm Eos. Nice to meet the both of you." said Eos then smiled.
Hellos blushed and her heart beats fast when she saw his smile. Eos and the twins talked for an hour and the twins realized that Eos was kind and funny. They liked him and they became good friends. Until one day, when the twis were waiting for Eos to arrive on their favorite place, Hellos confessed to her twin that she loved Eos.
       Selene smiled but deep inside her heart she was sad. She was sad because she also loved Eos but she could not tell to her twin. She didn't like to start a fight or rivalry between them so she kept it as a secret. One night, Selene was walking alone at the field. Then, she saw a familiar figure, Eos, she thought. Eos saw her and immediately ran towards her. They walked together and talked until Selene couldn't take it anymore to hide her feelings. She confessed to him. Selene and Eos didn't notice that Hellos was at their back and heard all Selene's confession.
      "Selene..." said Hellos
       Selene and Eos turned their eyes on her. Selene was shocked and felt guilty. She tried to explain it but Hellos didn't listen because she was mad.
       I'm sorry Hellos." Selene was sobbing.
      "sorry? You lied at me! It's ok if you like him but what i can't believe is that you kept a secret. We promised that no more secrets. But you-" Hellos walked away and never returned to that field again. Selene cried and cried. She tried to talk to Hellos but Hellos kept on avoiding her. Selene became so sad.
       Eos couldn't take it anymore. He felt guilty and blamed his self for what happened. He tried to please Hellos to talk to Selene but she refused. Selene wanted to see Hellos and she really missed her. Hellos avoided to see her. Dapitayon, the god of sky didn't like what he saw between the twins. He asked Eos if he was willing to do anything for the twins. Eos said yes and then Dapitayon made Eos as a god of dawn, where he could make the Hellos and Selene see each other whether they like it or not. They couldn't stop Eos because he was the god of dawn. So when the dawn comes, as the sun goes down and the moon goes up people can see them at the same time.
