3rd person's pov :

Beam looks at his Pha's face with gloomy expression . Pha is sobbing hard while hugging Kit . And then there is Beam's body - laying motion less in front of Pha & Kit .

"Phaaa !" Beam calls in a broken voice .

"They can't hear you ." Forth replies in a calm and low voice . " doesn't matter how hard you try . That's why I hate to bring ghosts to their family ....

...But you are like me - an orphan . So , I brought you here ."

Beam sighs after few minutes of silence "they are like my family ."

"I know ."

"They can see you right ?" Beam asks in a low voice .

"Umm .!"

"Tell them , not to cry . Tell them , I don't feel any pain . I am fine ."

"Are you really ?" Forth asks slowly .

Beam chuckles . A tear drops down his cheek ,"does it really matter ? I am already dead ."

Forth smiles softly " It does . At least to me , it does . "

Beam looks at Forth "It does ? you haven't even shed a tear on my death ."

Forth looks at Beam's motionless body in front of him . "That's because I can see you . I can talk to you . You doesn't feel like dead to me . You are not dead to me ."

Beam looks at his own body too "that ..... feels awfully cliche ."

Forth chuckles "let's leave . Are you ready ?"

Beam looks at Pha's and Kit's face one last time . He remembers the money he saved to have a solo trip last year . He remembers his hidden chocolate chips inside his closet which he didn't wanted to eat in one go ...

His favourite T-shirt . He only wore it for two times ....

The baby dragon dress . He bought it for his future baby ..

Beam blinks fast with a big sniff "Do ... do I have a choice ?"

"In life ? Always ." Forth replies .

Beam looks at how Pha controls himself and covers Beam face with white clothes . "In death ?"

"I wish .... !" Forth sighs deeply . He suddenly remembers the first ghost he saw in his life .

................

"I wish I would have died 3 years later ." Beam says to Forth while sitting on the ground of Hospital park . He wanted spend a little time there in the hospital . Forth didn't object .

"Why ?"

"Well , you know .. I was an illegitimate child . My mother was sixteen when she gave birth to me . So , she left me at the orphanage . I never had a family ...

So , I had my plans . At 34 solo trip . At 35 a love marriage . At 36 a cute child ." Beam replies while looking at the sky . He can see his body is leaving the hospital gate in an ambulance , in his peripheral vision .

"Then I am glad you died at 33 ."

Beam looks at Forth amused .

Forth chuckles "believe me , I have seen so many deaths . Leaving a family behind is the worst thing ever . It's harder for Who leave and also for who can't leave ."

"Are you really not a grim ripper ?" Beam asks with a frown .

" Nah ! "

"Liar ! Whatever , I am tired of being sad . " Beam closes his eyes then opens it again . "Tell me , where will I go ? Heaven or hell ?"
