Choosing Heaven Or Hell

Ch 3: Meeting Him

I'm too stunned to say anything. What do I say? Hi, it's nice to know that you and you're dad are real? Yea I'm not going to say that.... Then what do I say? There's a long silence in the room, for about 2 or 3 minutes. It's starting to make me antsy. Does he expect me to say something? Ugh, this is stupid.

"I see that you need a moment to take this all in," his strong voice says, "Lacyel, you may leave now. My father said to send you to him after you have brought her to me. Thank you for bringing her to me, Lacyel." I look at Lacyel as he bows his head and leaves quietly.

Don't go!!! I'm about to scream out, but my mouth is shut tight. Crap, now what do I do?

I look back at the man sitting in front of me as he stands. Suddenly the brightness of the room lessens and now I'm able to see his face clearly. Wow. He's beautiful. Perfect. He starts to walk towards me and my heart starts to race. I'm not sure if its 'cause of how beautiful he is or 'cause he's the mythical Jesus Crist walking towards me! He's so tall. Probably 7 feet tall or something. Well, I do have a thing for tall guys. And he's very muscular. Wow. Ugh! Stop checking him out!!!

When he's finally standing in front of me, just about 4 feet away from me, I look at every detail on his face that make him so beautiful. His soft short golden hair, his big beautiful eyes- Hold on....I look more closely into his eyes and take a small gasp. I've never seen eyes like these. It isn't just a color but many colors, all in one. A rainbow of colors in his eyes, looking at my violet ones. After a while, I notice that his eye color is changing and it becomes a dark shade of green and grey, but they still are beautiful. I finally stop looking into his amazing eyes and look at his perfect straight nose and his perfect, not too small not too big, lips. Then his jaw line, that is strong and firm. With a light brush of golden hair on his jaw. I look back at his lips as they curve up into a smile. I swallow. Oh my...

"Hello," he says, smoothly.

Hello? Just hello? I give him a questioning look. "H-hi" I say, my voice sounding small. Why do I sound so shy?

"Dina," he says, "please come and take a seat with me." He says as he starts to walk towards this large couch at the left side of the room. I follow, not saying anything. He sits in the middle and I sit in the far left side of the couch. He frowns just a little as he stands and comes to sit closer to me. He body turned towards me with his right arm resting on the top of the couch.

"You must have many questions so please, ask away," he say with a very gentle tone. His voice is so beautiful.

My hands are locked together on my lap as I look down at the floor and think for a moment. Where to start? "What am I doing here?" I blur out. Ugh, not exactly the question I wanted to ask. I look up at him and he's looking down at me, still having that small beautiful smile.

"I've been waiting for this for a very, very long time," he starts, his voice passionate. "There's a prophecy that we must follow, and you happen to be a part of it. A Big part of it, actually. You are to marry me and together, we rise and save humanity and defeat Lucifer. Bring peace to you're world. Where there's no war, pain, fear, death..." He trails off, still looking down at me.

"So all my life I was meant to do this?" I start the think out loud in a small voice. "I don't have a choice to live my own life?" My voice starts to get a little louder. Suddenly, I feel very angry. How dare he tell me how to live my life. "I've had an arranged marriage before I was even born?! Why can I only marry you?!" I nearly shout. I stand up and look at him with disbelief. "So I'm just a human, a regular human girl, that doesn't get a chance to choose to have love and a family and a life of my own?!" Ugh! I can't believe this!!!
