Blink

By ,Emmalene Nichols
This short story is about a NASA astronaut that's committing a suicidal trip to pluto and now he has a choice to either try to go back to Earth and live a life of struggle, or to go to
Heaven and find peace.

I wake up in a room of white with a tall black figure in front of me, looking scared and confused with his big beaming white eyes
'blink'
The black figure vanishes, now I'm all alone.
'blink'
I see a family of four who seemed to be playing what looks to be a board game.
'blink'
There was a quiet knock at the door but no one noticed it. I hear the knock once more even louder than the first and still no one hears it. Then a few moments later there was a big bang at the door but still no one hears.
'blink'
Suddenly the door opens with no noise whatsoever, and as the black figure appears people start to disappear one by one.
'blink'
I watch them fade away, all but the young boy is left...all alone.
'blink'
As night approaches, I see the young boy once more but with a happy expression on his face and a girl by his side with long brown hair and green eyes. They run up the hill to lay in the tall grass to watch the stars, but the figure appears once more, and once again the young boy is left...alone.
'blink'
I see the stars of the night and the different shades of Pluto's blue . As I look the other way, I see three floating white suits. I move towards them weightless, but when I reached for them they disappeared. I don't know what was happening, but they all disappeared one after the other, until...
I woke up...
The Earth had turned into a world of emotional destruction...
The sky had no sign of hopes for me...
My family has been disconnected from me...
My friends vanished from my life...
All of my life goals had been destroyed...
Because I'm the one who did it and I'm the one who shut everyone out from my world...
Now I'm standing here, ALONE...
