7 Minutes

Goodbye

MAIRA p.o.v

Woah! She is talking, talking, talking I'm loosing my mind here, I mean I can't even digest a single word from her whole speech. The only conclusion I can draw from the whole pep talk was I was still alive back on earth and was left with only 1 minute. Now what does that mean? Ooh wait I remember she telling 7 Minutes and expanded time and blah blah blah. Holy shit! THOSE GATES. Again the only thing I remember is gold is for heaven silver for hell and BRONZE, bronze to go back home. The only gate without a second thought I would agree on.

Even though they were offering all the comforts and trying to satisfy us with the ultra technology. Still it feels like you are living in a robotic world with robot's. Nothing can beat the pure bliss and happiness and the comfort a family gives you.

I'm still 22, I don't wanna die so soon and spend my entire life here. I still have a ton of buck-list to fulfil and achieve and do so many things in my life and make my parents proud. So without even thinking about the other two gates I turn towards Sara and look at her. She just looks at me with a smile on her face as if she is already reading my mind and knows my decision. Before I could open my mouth to tell her which gate I have choosen she pushed me towards the bronze doors and signaled the old man in the booth.

She then looks at me and Pat's on my head telling I'm worth living. I quickly hug her tight and thank her for the lovely tour she had given me and a chance to know what is an afterlife. I heard the doors open, I give another glance at Sara who now took few steps back and told me, Will meet you in the heaven when you finally give up on earth and I will be waiting for you and chuckled.

For a second I was blank. What is she trying to tell? Then I realized of course once you die you will have to choose either heaven or hell. I smiled back at her and walked closer to the doors only to be greeted with clouds. I turn back to look at Sara with a questioning look, but she was already standing behind me and pushed me of the edge telling me GOODBYE MIRA.

As I feel from the edge I could only see the frame of the bronze door and clouds everywhere, as if there was no landing at all. Where the hell was I even standing then? Soon the frame disappeared as a bunch of clouds closed the portal. But I see something emerging out of those clouds. I see Sara with her huge wings popping out of those like a popcorn just popped out of the popping machine. Soon she dived down toward me flapping her huge wings causing a storm around us, this made me dizzy and soon I lost her in my sight or I was loosing my conscious. Within seconds darkness had eaten me again.
