'Bang!' I heard a heavy crashing sound and Christine's piercing cry.
When you feel like your body floating and then suddenly you felt as if time suddenly stopped. However, the next second, you were rammed into something hard and massive. Trust me, feels like sh*t!
My body feels empty and I feel like I am flying in the air. My body starts to ache and I black out...
‘Arrrrrrrrrgggggggh it freaking huuurtsss’ I felt like I fainted for a second there.
I manage to open my eyes. My eyes sting and the sunset reflected in it were dyed red.
My body is not in pain anymore or maybe I was already in the point I can't feel anything.
"Kyaaaaaaaaaah!"
I suddenly heard a desolate scream not far away from me. Moving my head in difficulty, I saw Christine which was looking at me. She looks like she was crying.
Noticing my gaze, she ran towards me. Although I know that I won't be able to survive after this, I still felt somehow relieved seeing her with no major injuries and seem okay.
“Wawa, R-reki!I-I’m sorry, I’m sorry”
‘She’s really crying hard this girl!’ I chuckled a bit while watching her.
“HEEEELP! PLLEASE SOMEONE HELP US PLEASE!!!”
“T-that’s…*cough blood*…enough…*cough blood*……s-save your strength…*cough blood*… y-your still wounded…arrrggh!!” I struggled to say something though it always end up accompanied by a mouthful blood.
‘Oh I’m calmer than I thought I would be. Hahaha is this what they call the calm before dying? Fascinating’ I mused myself.
“What are you saying? You’re more severe compared to me! ”
“I-I… know….I won’t make it… so please…”
“No, no, no, please I need you!...*sob*...Please don’t leave me,...*sob*...please...*sob*...You know, I love you! Please don’t leave me alone...*sob*... please”
“Really?... hehe *cough blood*… Cristine.. always remember this…. E-even if I die *cough* know that I truly love……..you”
I close my eyes and calm my heart. There is no trace of fear inside me, just a little bit reluctance of being separated from her.
"NOOoooooo. please wake up! Reki, REKIIIIIII!!!!"
---------------------
It’s cold…
It hurts…
It’s painful…
These were the first impressions I felt.
When I awoke up, I tried to retrace my memories before I lost my consciousness. And then I remembered.
That's right...I died.
‘However, isn't it too cold here? Just where am I? It feels like eternity has already passed! Is this Hell? I can’t see, I can’t hear nor feel anything! Am I even alive? Oh right, I forgot, I died! Hahaha’
[ Do you regret it? ]
Ha? Just now, I heard something. Suddenly a voice appeared. It was feminine and beautiful. Surely the owner must also be a beautiful girl.
Nah couldn’t be….. *sigh* I died, even worse I’m hallucinating
[ This is not hallucination! How can a soul hallucinate? Such absurdity is never been heard of ]
Really? Thank god!...
[ That's Goddess]

...Eh? Ah Thank the Goddess ...
[Wrong! it's beautiful Goddess]
... Ah right! Phew thank the beautiful goddess I didn’t became delusional!
[ Fufufu ]
Ahhhh YOU! Stop adding something strange into my lines! Just who the heck are you?
[ You will know soon! So anyway, are you regretting your decision? ]
Hm? What decision?
[ Of course, your decision in saving that girl ] The voice asked me.
I felt surprised for a moment but then I immediately laughed hard.
Why? because I know how easily I could answer her question. It's not really that difficult nor it needed some major thinking.
The answer is very clear like a pearl.
“That’s a simple question—” I spoke towards voice.
"---Never! I will never regret it even if I die! Even if I can turn back time, I will still do it if it means saving her."
[ Hm~ ]
A gentle breeze carried a heated whisper to me. The voice seemed happy causing me to imagine a beautiful girl smiling towards me.
Feeling a little bit satisfied and happy. I accidentally let out my heartfelt regret.
"But there is something I regret though."
[ What is it? ]
The voice once again curiously asked.
"I should….."
[ I should? ]
I suddenly let out some bitter tears as I continued, "I should have *sob*...*sob* I should have kissed her before kicking the bucket T-T"
[…….]
[ Pft… BUWAHAHAHAHAHAHA …… you pass ]
She sounded joyous as her laughter got lauder.
"Hm? Pass? As in to heaven? Wait, first of all who are you? GOD? GODDESS? Or the other me?"
Damn! As soon as I blurted that out, I suddenly felt embarrassed. What Other me? That's too Chuuni!
[ half-wrong, half right! My name is Cecelia, the goddess of death and rebirth at your service! ☆☆☆ ]
