...
w-what
w-why.. why is he here? why is he holding his hand out to my grandpa?
"N-NYX? what are you do-"
Shit- the gir-WOMAN!
"i'm doing my job ma'am, what are you doing here?"
"that's my grandfather and he's ill. What's your job and what's it got to do with him?2
oh fuck, her grandfather? what do i do now, i'm not usually confronted by the passing's family..
" ma'am i'm sorry but your grandfa-"
- a long continuous noise alarms from besides the grandfather, his heart rate, flat-lined.-
- a handful of nurses rush in the hospital room, soon after pronouncing the grandfather as dead-
" hes d-dead?"
i knew he wouldn't be with me much longer but i didn't expect for him to leave me, and what does it have to do with Nyxen and his job
i can see my grandfather talked to Nyx, how can he see my grandpa, hes dead, only i can see the passed.. whys he holding his hand out to him? whats happening?
- she runs out the room, hoping nyx and her grandfather follow, to which they do-
i wont be seen as crazy this way
"nyxen, grandpa, whats happening?"
"It's my time to pass on dear, you should know that, and this gentleman is here to guide me there. I always knew you were special my dear, i just never knew it was the deceased that you could see"
Nyxen is- a grim reaper?
"Nyx, your job.. yo-"
"Yes, I'm the grim reaper, i know it's an awful job and a terrible thing i have to do, trust me- If i could change it i would"
I should be sad that he's taking my grandfather away, but he looks so peaceful and happy to go, perhaps passing on is as beautiful as Nyx.
-she sighs-
"Okay grandpa, I'll say goodbye to you now, i don't want to see you in purgatory"
What does she mean she doesn't want to see him in purgatory?
