CHAPTER 4
"A 26 year old woman writer, Katina Peuyr died last night. Police is yet to confirm if it was an accident or suicide." Headlines of Norway's newspaper reported.
Journey of million miles ended at the gates of the first heaven. Infinite Angels lined up side by side to each other with different humans. All dead yet alive. They went further and farther away from the Earth. Passing gates of each heavens. On the way they met different Angels who looked at the pious souls and asked about who were they. The pious souls were covered in shrouds from Paradise and had the smell of best perfumes. After a time, the voice of the Almighty is heard telling the Angels to take the souls back to their graves.
The three questions were to be asked in the grave.
The pious souls saw what they have earned and the wicked souls saw what they have lost.
Coming back from the trip of the levels of the skies, Ben sees an army of Angels and for a moment it feels like the sky will fall. "What's happening...?", Ben asks fearfully. "Oh that! We see that almost everyday. Wars and accidents..", he answers. Ben cuts his reply, "But there's no World War going on. So what war are you talking about?"
"The torture on humanity in different parts of world is no less than a war!", he answers Ben's silly question. Ben didn't knew these many people die everyday. Inhuman humans, he thought.
"Baby Sarah I'll go now.", he said as he laid her in the grave. She started making faces of disapproval, she started liking him and therefore didn't wanted him to leave. "Don't worry! You won't be questioned. You are a sinless soul after all. Just wait for the Day of Judgement and after that you can have fun in Paradise. Till then you can enjoy the sweet air of Paradise that'll fill your grave.", he tried to make her understand.
Katina was screaming from pain the moment she was out of her body. "HELP ME!!", she shouted aloud. She was laid down and then saw two more Angels descend. She got afraid even more.
Ben laid down and answered the three questions easily that the two Angels asked. Ben saw him leaving. He took out the paper, a new name appeared on the list of people.
1) Serial number : 6468833886321789
2) Name : Talia
3) Place : Bathroom of the second apartment in right of the fourth building in La Latina.
4) Last food : Cranberry juice
Sarah chuckled as he took out his watch and set his watch according to the fifth column which mentioned the time, "I gotta change this time! Meet you soon at brothel, Maria!" He flew away.
Katina couldn't answer the three questions.
Who is your Lord?
What is your religion?
Who is your Prophet?
She felt like her mouth was sealed. All of a sudden like lightning she experienced gut-wrenching pain in her now complete body. The grave crushed her. She thought the one who took her soul out will stay but when she saw him leaving she managed to ask, "You wouldn't come back, right?" She didn't wanted him to remain there, he had already brought a lot of agony on her. He turned around and came close to her, black red fire burning in his eyes,
"I wouldn't. I'm ANGEL OF DEATH."
