As I opened my eyes, I was greeted by the sight of a beautiful and well-organized living room. "Wow, this place is amazing," I whispered to myself. It was unfortunate that I had to die because of a girl, but at least I found myself in what seemed like heaven. However, I couldn't ignore the lingering pain in my back. I needed someone, perhaps an angel, to help alleviate it.
Lost in my thoughts about what would happen next, I felt a tap on my shoulder. Frustrated, I grumbled, "Why do I always get tapped on the shoulder?" I stood up to see who it was, and as soon as I laid eyes on the person, I started sweating profusely. In a deep and intimidating voice, he said, "Well, you're finally awake. Come outside for a minute." To my surprise, it was the same guy who had knocked me out earlier, now asking me to step outside.
I hesitated. Why should I leave this heavenly place? I refused to step out of this apparent paradise.
That was the last thing I remembered before waking up screaming "Never!" in a small local clinic. I was drenched in sweat, even in real life.
Two nurses rushed into the room to calm me down and proceeded to explain where I was and who had brought me there. After a few minutes, when I had settled down, I realized that the man who had knocked me out was the woman's bodyguard, assuming I posed a threat to her. "Well, that's an unconventional way to meet your end," I muttered, unaware of the nurse's smile at my cluelessness.
I had to stay at the clinic until evening for observation, as they were concerned about a possible concussion. Clearly, I was still shaken by the whole ordeal.
Amidst it all, one piece of good news kept me hopeful. One of the nurses handed me a note with the lady's contact information. Apparently, she had insisted that I call her.
How fortunate I was! Now I had two reasons to make that call. After all, good things happen to those who work hard, even if they almost meet their demise.
I left the clinic promptly and returned home. After a shower and a simple meal to take my medications, I made up my mind to call her, despite any fears I may have had. This was an opportunity to pursue my dream job and meet the girl of my dreams. Who cared if it felt a bit intimidating? The end goal was to secure a job, after all.
With nothing else to do for the rest of the day, I decided to relax in my apartment and watch a movie. However, my tranquility was interrupted by a knock on my door.
"I wasn't expecting anyone," I muttered to myself as I approached the door. Without asking who it was, I opened it confidently, reassured by the safety of my neighborhood and the familiarity of my own home. But what I saw standing in front of me was both shocking and a little terrifying. Was this the end?
Who was standing there? And why did it feel like it could be the end?
