Chapter Two

~Charlene~

I woke up and found out I was lying on my bed. I sat up and looked around.

'Where's everyone?'

I stood up and walked out of the room. Then I heard people talking in the hall room. Curious, I decided to went inside the room.

"Oh our dear Charlene has woken up!" Godfather spoke sarcastically.

"Hi." I said.

"Hi? Is that all you can give me Charlene? What about your phone?  What about the schedule? Why didn't it happened? Answer me now." He ordered.

I didn't know what to do. I think I'll piss in my pants due to how scary he looks like. He looks as if he's going to eat someone alive.

"I didn't do anything." I lied while looking away.

"And that's a lie. Your phone won't auto shut down for a reason. It cannot shut down unless you want it to. Now, before I make you suffer, tell me the truth Charlene."

I looked in his eyes trying to hold back my tears. I didn't want to get punished. I heard some were executed and some even get kicked out. I don't want that to happen to me.

"I saw this girl and she was dying. I think it's her time but then it was her birthday and she celebrated with her lover and when I see her lover was really sad, I decided to shut down my phone before the time past. I'm sorry but I won't do it again." I explained and looked down on my feet.

"You can't change who's going to be dead. Once dead, that's it. No rewind. No postpone. Nothing. I'll give you a chance but if it happens again, I have to do what I had to do. You heard me?" I nodded.

"Whatever it is, she has to die. It's her time. We have our rules and we need to follow." I nodded again.

"You may go now. And don't forget to take your phone with you."

I quickly turn around and walked out of the hall room as quickly as possible. Once I'm out, I sighed in relieved that nothing would happened to me. I was given a chance and I'm not going to lose that chance.

"Why did you even do that? You're really stupid you know that right?" Angela was scolding me for what I did just now.

We were sitting on the bench waiting for the time.

"I know I was. I won't do it again. I told him that." I responded.

"Okay then what happened and why did you even fainted? It's really weird." I shrugged.

"I don't know. I have this weird feeling when he past through me. And my heart hurts a lot. And then I fainted. I don't know what's wrong. It's really really weird. Gosh. I don't even have an explanation to it." I sighed heavily.

"Maybe you should ask someone for help. Maybe they could explain it?" I nodded.

'1845hrs 21 August'

I looked at my phone.

"Great. I gotta go now. I don't want to get punished. So see you." I waved goodbye to her and transport myself to where it is suppose to be.

In front of me was the girl that I 'save'. Don't tell me.

BEEEEPPPPPPPP

"Felly.." I heard someone called her name from behind me.

I turned my head and saw the guy holding a bucket of fruits and flower to her. He dropped everything down and went to her.

"Felly !! Wake up!! Nurse! Help!" He rushes out to get help.

After a few minutes, the doctor came and the nurse told him to wait outside.

"Fuck off! I need to see her! Felly !" He pushes the nurse away.

"I'm Sorry sir but you can't." Then a few nurses came and tried to pulled him out.

He was screaming and crying for her. I closes my eyes not knowing how to help. I can't help anymore. I can't lose my chance. I don't want to get executed. I don't want to be thrown out of this job.

The doctor then went out of the room.

"I'm sorry. We can't do anything." He spoke and walked off.

The guy just dropped to the ground looking helplessly.

"I'm sorry." I murmured and vanished off.

I lay on my bed feeling guilty about what happened. I was thinking about the guy. I felt sorry for him. I felt sorry for her. I feel like giving up everything now. But if I gave up now, I'll waste my two years of being a death timekeeper.

"Don't think too much about it Charlene. We're not suppose to be feeling guilty. This is our job." Angela spoke.

She was changing to get ready for her job.

"I know but I don't know why I'm feeling this way."

"Just don't think about it and go get some sleep. You need a lot of rest and we don't want to see you fainted anymore. Enough about that guy. He can still do changes since he's a human. Maybe he'll try to forget about her like how humans always do that. So don't think about it so much. You're not human Charlene. There's no need for you to pity those who are still alive. It's suppose to be the opposite." Angela stated.

I guess what she says true though. I shouldn't be thinking about someone who's still alive and can still live as a human. I shouldn't be caring about what happened to him later. It's suppose to be the opposite.

But, somewhere in my heart says to not stop thinking about helping him.

Oh shit.

What has happened to me?

Why am I like this?
