His Grim Reaper (COMPLETED)

Chapter 11: Now or Never

Another day passed and my nightmare is still there.. I can't even sleep without talking about it. I can't say that i'm not scared because it was my life depending if i will choose him.

I snapped out on my thoughts when a knock on my door is suddenly heard.

"Come in" i said while still thinking about the nightmare and shocked at who it is.

He looks serious that made me serious too.

"This is the time. You have to choose between your life and job, or your love of your life" he said while walking towards me and stopped inches away from my face.

Shutting my eyes at the sight, i finally chose one and i felt that he left.

"You have 24 hours" he said.

As I open my eyes, i can see at the room a big clock.

"24 hours.." i muttered.

After i said that, i was startled at the clock that started clicking and i think is counting down until it passed 24 hours.

"I have 24 hours to choose BUT IT'S FREAKING HARD" i punched the table beside me and my hand started to bleed.

"SO NOW, I AM A HUMAN?" I shouted at the sight of blood that continue to drop at the floor while I am in a bed.

Suddenly, memories start to get on my mind..

The moments when I am with Josh. It doesn't leave my mind until now..
Knowing that he is a guy meant for me.. I love him, and you can't blame me for loving him because he did love me too.. And that's what making it hard for me TO FREAKING CHOOSE BETWEEN MY JOB AND LIFE OR HIM.

"I wanna curse so bad" the last words that left my mouth before i drift into a deep sleep.

"Hey, Atheena, he doesn't love you!"

Confused at what the person was saying, i asked him.

"Who?"

"Josh."

"What? You kidding me? Seriously, don't even attempt to make him bad infront of me" i said while giving the person a sarcastic chuckle.

"Silly. Don't cry if you find the truth, Atheena"

"Sure. I don't even know who you are"
i said and was about to go away from the person but his words make me stop walking.

"Honestly speaking, he used you"

"What do you know about HONESTY?"

"He used you for him to know the truth about your job, not because he LOVE you"

Shocked at what he said, I stuttered "W-what do you m-mean?" While the man standing infront of me saying in a low and scary voice "I said, he used you to gather knowledge about Grim Reapers" he said and I walk balk slowly and stumbled.

"Curse if you want to, but i don't want you to cry, my daughter"

Looking shocked at him for his last 2 words, I stand right back up and slapped the man.

"HOW DARE YOU TO SAY YOU ARE MY FATHER?"

Looking sideways, the man cried a tear and said his last words before disappearing.

"I am just here to protect you from your decisions. You can't love a human" he said while i find myself crying too while looking down. I don't know what to say.

"He doesn't deserve your love. He used you. You don't believe me?" I looked at him with puffy eyes and nodded.

"Then ask him instead. You have plenty of time to do that" He said confidently while making me look up at him by gently grabbing my jaw and kiss me at the forehead.

"You are so brave to love a human even though you are an immortal" he said while completely disappearing.

"Wait-

OHMYGOD WHAT WAS THAT?
That's a nightmare idiot.

My dad appear out of nowhere, telling me that Josh isn't the one i know, reminding me of the 24 hour thing, dad kissed me at my forehead and complimenting me for being brave.

Positive with Negative dream. Is this even considered a Nightmare?

/20 hours left./

I looked at the big clock infront of me at the wall "23 hours left" i said while looking at the door waiting for Josh to come and see me atleast.. But he didn't came. "Only hours WHAT TO DO?" i asked while silently shouting it..

I waited for the hour to pass and think about everything i did before that can help me make a decision.

"If only i don't love Josh, i didn't have to be stucked in this one" i said ruffling my hair.

What if i chose the wrong path? What if I became Human and be a traitor to the eyes of people here?

What if I chose my Job and never see Josh again? My love of my life...

What if- URGH I CAN'T DO THIS.

/10 Hours left./

Still thinking of what to choose, i decided to look at what can I be if i didn't get involved in this..

Can I just go back in time? When i didn't meet him.. Or the day I died??

I saw a rose beside the table and smiled. "This is the first rose Josh gave me"

How can i chose between the two?

/5 hours left/

"It's now or never" i said while standing up and touching the clock.

*To answer, Atheena needs to touch the wall clock and say the answer by her mind*

What if I really chose the wrong one? What will happen to me??

But I love Josh-

I get startled at the clock moving it's hands quickly and changing it to only 1 hour left.

"WHAT? ASDFGHJKL" i shouted at it confused at why did it move and change the remaining time.

"I JUST LOVE HIM WHAT'S WRONG WITH IT?"

I get startled again when it lessen the time again to 30 minutes. It makes my heart started beating faster than before and make me really nervous as it lessen the time and it's already less than an hour.

"What will I do? It's only 30 minutes.." i mumbled and look at the clock again.

Was it because I said that I love Josh? Was it because Josh is Human?

Looking at the clock again, i see memories..

It shows a moment..

"Yes, I committed suicide to know Grim Reaper. I get closer to her because I want to know their secret. I want to gather info-

It stopped. And a low voice started speaking up making me flinch.

"If you will choose your Job, you'll live normally here. But if you choose that human-

I touched the clock before he even finished his sentence and i chose..

                              -------

"DOC, THE PATIENT IS AWAKE"

"Prepare all the things, nurse"

"You can see me, Atheena?"

"Do you hear me?"

Faint noises, cries, heartbeat, and voices of people are the once i can hear.

I woke up at someone wearing glasses and a Magnifier looking through my eyes..

I looked through the ceiling.. I became concious at my surroundings...

I see people.. Looking.. Worried?

"The patient, Atheena Pamoria is now stable, and have woken up from her year long Coma"
