Afterlife

@AuroSauyjua asked me to write a story where they both die and meet in the afterlife.

Purely fictional.

I'll try to explain the afterlife concept here since there seems to be confusing (no wonder, I made it up. Haha)

Earl: the final goal. Your soul is complete. You leave your human form.

The middle ground: you come here when you die. You're dead but you still have a body and human basic needs, but you leave your human body behind. If you have tattoos they disappear. You don't remember your previous lives. Here you work on yourself, and things like compassion and patience. It's an ongoing job. You can meet and recognize your soulmate here. You will always find each other in your human lives. It can take some time before you meet each other. You can have lived many lives before your soulmate is born or you just pass each other.

Human life: You are reborn and there's a list of different tasks/goals that you have to accomplish to be able to get to Earl. You have to finish them all, one by one (one each lifetime) or you can choose to do several in one lifetime. You chose them before you are reborn. They are designed to give you experience and knowledge. If you commit suicide you fail that task for that lifetime and have to do it again. The goals you have accomplished still stand.
