Azrael

Life was just a huge nightmare for Ife and things just seemed to go from bad to worse for her. She never caught a break. She didn't think she did anything to deserve such a life but then again, even if she didn't know what it was, God knows all.

The quickest escape would have been suicide. But suicide wasn't the bravest. It was cowardly. But she didn't even have the courage to try.

When she gets a chance to meet the Angel of Death as she'd been wishing, it doesn't quite go as planned.

But that's ok. Because things do not always work out how we want them to.

I created a challenge for myself, or a proposal where you send me a word or a phrase or a sentence. I wanted to challenge myself to write a short story out of whatever word, phrase or sentence you sent me.

This is the outcome of that challenge. 🙃
