Loss of life

Bitter sweet

Chapter 22

I pull the doors to Hades room forcefully, causing it to slam and the afterlife around me to look at me.

I really hate drawing attention to myself. I would rather people not pay attention to me when I do something embarrassing.

"Are you alright?" a lady asks me from across the room.

I nod my head and smile. I feel Hades pounding on the sort obviously not wanting our conversation to end. I have my back pressed up against the door, trying to lessen the sound he makes.

"Shut up!" I scream at hades turning to the door and slamming my fist on it.

I bring my hand away and cradle it. Ouch that wasn't a good idea. If I were still alive that would of broken a few
bones for sure.

I turn away from the door, the banging from Hades having stopped, and look at the people staring at me. Some look at me with concern others look at me like I lost it. One face catches my sight in the crowd though.

She's leaning up against the podium near the entrance staring at me blankly. She has a white nightgown on and loose waves of hair that trails to the middle of her back.

I stand there frozen not being able to process everything and wondering if my eyes are playing tricks on me. Maybe I'm wrong, Maybe it just looks like her.

I mean this girls face is hallow and her cheekbones are more defined unlike the girl I know. And this girl has a frail figure where the girl I know had a perfect weight. This girl looks tired and her eyes look dull but the girl I know has vibrant eyes and a happy vibe.

I feel tears threaten to break down my walls at the thought of that being who I think it is, and the fact that she may be dead. She is not supposed to be dead, she's supposed to be happy and have a family and have grand kids.

My wall crashes down and instinct takes over. The tears slip out and I look at my surrounding through blurry eyes. I see Jackson walking to me with concern but before he can reach me I dart away and towards the girl.

She steps out from behind the podium as tears start to come down her cheeks also. She opens up her arms and I run faster needing her in my embrace. I grab onto her and cling onto her for love, for the feel of her again.

I stroke her hair and she sobs into my neck, while I do the same.

"S-sis" I say through sobs.
