'Burn Me!', It said some pretty terrific words and just the mere idea of it plunged me to spirals of thoughts.

'Why?', I asked him hesitantly.

'That's a question, so I can't answer this', it answered but that wasn't an answer.

I leaned back a bit unsure of how to move the conversation going by the number of rules we are labelled to. It's a game for reason against the question.

'I know what might you two be thinking. How can we even talk when questioning is denied', it said and instantly replied V, 'Exactly!'

'I have lived for centuries, being in the hands of one or the other. I was even placed in the hands of histories dangerous ones, The white witch, Grimore Ripper, Ash king and so many others now deceased. You know what all of them have in common?', it asked us.

'They were humans', said V and I closed my eyes at his answers. How stupid!

'That's right', it said and turns out for the first time in history, I misjudged V, 'They were humans and humans are meant to die', it added, 'Dying may seem to be painful and sorrowful, knowing we all were to die one day breaks heart and forms a questions that why are we living when we have to die one day or more precisely why are we struggling to live when an end is sure'

I heard him desperately with all ears, It continued, 'Everyone always lust to live forever', it paused and with a sigh continued, 'Even I wanted too!' and stopped.

'What happend?', I asked eagerly as I wanted to hear him out but soon did I realised and covered my lips with my palm. I asked a question!

The book gave a relaxing yet so tensed up smile, 'I always longed to live forever, I didn't wanted to die out like my deceased mother or rotten sister by abuse', it said and somehow I wanted V blinked again and again with this part.

'Something went wrong and I ended up like this', it finished and I knew it didn't wanted to disclose anymore.

'You were a human', I said slowly.

'Like us', said V as unreachable as I was.

'We always desire of what we have not, I desire to perish and you desire to live forever. So ironic, right?', it asked and added, 'If you can kill me, I can answer to every question of your life'

Every question? Can I know the hideouts and locations of all the flowering warrior and also will I be even successful. Everything made so easy..., should we?

As I recalled everything, V stood up with an mother of dragon angry face and frown, 'How could you loose hope in life so easily?', he asked with barely audible voice yet it was clear he was angry, 'Everyone has pain yet they are living this life sharing the few happy moments before they perish', he said and this time I could feel how sentimental he was about to get. His eyes were about to watered up but he manage to pull it back somehow.

'So what do I do?', asked the book.

The book which holds the answer to every question in his universe asked us. How Ironic? But it was a moment that I could ever forget, and I thought I never had hope in life. Only if I had met someone like V before or Jungkook wouldn't have changed to the gravity. I regret committing suicides, I regret not having hope in life.

Since the childhood, I was lonely with no friends or anyone to play with unlike my brother who was exactly the opposite. He was the desired one I was the one to be perished. The only friend I had in childhood were the space beneath my bed and a chalk and board to draw on. I always wondered why was I the one to have all the pain, why was I one to shed tears when everyone carried a smile on? Was I the only one meant to suffer pain and torture to the extent where I won't have anymore hope left in life? No, I wasn't, neither is anyone else. Life is hard and difficult and even harder to cherish before we perish out in the white sky. Not even the gods lived forever and we have all heard how lucky some of them were meanwhile how hard others had lived on to life.
