In his last moments of life, he had only seen darkness when he closed his eyes, and now that he was opening them again, he could see that he was in a place full of light. He was quite confused by everything that had happened. He was supposed to be dead and had left existence itself. Was there a higher heaven that he didn't know about?
He stood up to see that he wasn't wearing his suit from the war or the one he always wore in hell, he was back in his Seraphim suit that he wore when he belonged to heaven. He decided to take a short walk around the area until he ended up bumping into something. When he looked to see what it was, he realized there was nothing in front of him, but he could feel that there was something there.
He decided to take another path until he tripped over something and fell onto something soft. He could feel a pillow even though he couldn't see it. He decided to stand up again to understand the place he was in, more because of that strange voice that narrated everything he did, but he immediately knew what this place was as he realized that what was around him was beyond his comprehension.
Lucifer: Are you going to come out or not?!
At that moment, a dark line appeared, forming the frame of a door, which opened to reveal someone whose appearance Lucifer would never forget. His white suit with golden epaulettes whose edges were feathered along with his black bowtie, his feathered cape with the same darkness of the night inside along with the stars, while the outside was filled with the light of day. And what stood out the most was his white top hat with a golden cross in front.
Despite his human appearance, the only thing that differentiated him was his face, which was covered by his hat, showing his mouth, while a pair of eyes floated around his head on each side.
- What manners, is that how you greet your father?
Lucifer: Don't come at me with that, God.
That being, the creator of everything, just smiled and approached him, hugging him tightly, making Lucifer feel annoyed by it.
God: It's been a long time since we've seen each other, how long has it been? About two thousand years or more?
Lucifer: Why did you bring me here?
God: I wanted to talk to my son, is that wrong?
Lucifer: It would be if you had brought me here another way! I had to die to come here!
God: Obviously. Did you really think I would forbid my firstborn from returning home?
Lucifer: Please, stop bullsh&%ing.
At that moment, he felt like he had said no profanity, but he didn't hear it.
Lucifer: What the f&%# was that?
God: Oh, my son, did you really think I would allow you to insult in my presence?
Lucifer: What stupidity, you don't censor that?
God: They are insults, not profanities.
Lucifer: I hate you.
God: Very well, why don't we sit down and catch up on everything that has happened?
Lucifer: Where?
God: At the table, obviously, it's right beside you.
Seeing that he didn't find anything, this made him very angry.
Lucifer: Do you expect me to see things here the way you do?
God: Right, sorry.
And without making any movement, everything around him began to take shape. Lucifer felt more comfortable with this and sat next to his father, who made two cups of coffee and cookies appear.
