Kirito sat beside Vivian's body, holding her hand into his. He looked at her face as he squeezed her rough fingers. Vivian's soul and Lucus sat in front of him, staring at him. Kirito's face was expressionless.

"Kirito, let's go home now. It's almost morning." Mrs. Hiomi said.

"Vivian is normal now. She'll wake up in a day or so" Mrs. Garnette said.

Kirito just looked at Vivian.

"Brother?" Aoi looked at Kirito. He slowly got up and walked out of the room. Vivian ran after him barefoot as Lucus just stared at her. Suddenly, the book had a clock drawn on it and it began shining with the ringing sound of huge church bells. He looked into it and disappeared into black clouds.

The next moment, he was in the middle of a terrace, somewhere in Beijing, where a teen girl was ready to jump down. He sat beside her and the girl took a deep breath. He imitated her and finally she jumped.

"Some people beg me for life while some are wasting it like it's no

    It had been three days since Vivian's operation. Kirito had a meeting with the doctor."Vivian has depressed brainstem reflexes" The doctor said as he looked at her report."What's that?""The brain turning responses off--Such as pupils not responding to light, no responses of limbs, except for reflex movements, no response to painful stimuli and irregular breathing. The person is still alive, but the brain is functioning at its lowest stage of alertness.""You mean a coma?""Yes. So, we'll set up a life support""A life support?""It's any combination of machines and medication that keeps a person's body alive when their organs would otherwise stop working. However, people who are using a life-support device don't always recover. They may not regain the ability to breathe and function on their own.""Till when do you think it will last?""That is unpredictable. It can last for few weeks, months or even years,"

    Lucus sounded really cold. Vivian looked into his eyes which were now a mix of blue and grey."You can't understand mortals, because you only see what they decide to show you. But I can, because I know the way to their heart.""Why are you saying that now?" She asked."Listen, I can't fix it. Don't try to flatter me, you are half dead, and a few years later, you will completely die." He said as he got up "And when the time comes, I won't hesitate to kill you."He walked away and jumped down from the top of the bridge, on the footpath. Vivian looked at him and slowly walked down the bridge. Lucus walked in the crowd as he crossed the street. He walked past a construction site and sat in front of a stray cat. The cat approached him slowly and he petted her head softly."Hey boy!" A well built construction worker said as he walked towards him. He had an Australian accent and light blonde beard "Move away from here, it's a danger zone"He got up

    Lucus and Vivian stood on the Egyptian pyramids. He looked agitated."I swear to-- fucking God dude!!""I think I have travelled all around the world in these two weeks. To be honest, this life is pretty good""You like it? You'll eventually get tired of it" Lucus said as he opened his book. "Goddamn, three people died together!" He said as he slapped his hand on his forehead."Oh! By the way, how do you know so many languages?""So many? Nope, I only speak one language.""You speak a different language in every different country," Vivian said. "No, I speak the same language. The language of Death. Every living being can understand it and interpret that as their own" Lucus tapped his feet.They suddenly shriek. Three people shouted as they jumped down from a helicopter. "Here it comes," Lucus said as his eyes turned grey and his hair turned pink."What are they doing?!" Vivian shouted."Sky diving. I tried it too."

    Vivian went to the hospital that morning. The bed was empty."Lucus, my body! It isn't in the hospital bed anymore! Someone stole me.""Like your husband." Lucus was writing something into his book."What are you doing?" She asked as she peeked into his book."Counting days. You said you wanted to know my age.""You're doing it because I asked?""Do you know how long it's been since you've been sleeping?""Like two weeks I guess?""Close enough, it's two months," He said."Wait what?""I know, time is confusing for the dead""I'm not dead" She looked into his eyes. He looked away into the book."I know"Kirito sat on the sofa as he poured his drink. He now had a long, unkept beard and baggy eyes. Vivian's body lay still on the bed. He picked up the drink glass and went towards her.He sat beside her and pressed her head "I still can't get drunk." She just lay there. Her hands were softe

    Fate walked on the footpath with other humans walking right through her. She stopped and looked at her book"Don't do it, Death. I'm telling you, you'll regret it way more than you think and in the end, you're the one who'll be left alone."'I know, Fate'"The person for whom I wanted to love betrayed me, I don't see any reason to move ahead--""Even when you can't see clearly, you must move ahead or you will rot""I want to rot. Let my soul rot in the hells of tarnished fate""Once you're dead, I can't undo it. You know that, right?""I do"He thought something and finally said:"This morning, as the dawn light hits your body, I will take away your soul to the blue stairs of fate. If you want to change your mind, you have tonight's time."She just nodded her head and he disappeared in the black clouds, leaving her standing on the street all by herself."What she said-- about killing her-- I wasn't

    Kirito stared at Vivian and she looked back at him. He slowly walked towards her and touched her face "You're not a dream again, right?" He confirmed.She looked at his face. He hadn't shaved for these two months and it seemed as if he hadn't slept much either. She pressed his hand on her face and he hugged her tightly 'That's not Kirito's perfume' She thought."I thought you'd never wake up"'Well too bad for you-- I did'He kissed her head and took a deep breath. She could hear him breathe above him. He seemed happy. 'Where's Lucus, he didn't tell me anything!'"You know, I've been pretty depressed lately" He said "And I was lonely" Vivian closed her eyes and held his sweater 'I'm gonna hate myself for this'"Vivian""Yes""Vivian""Yes""Vivian""What?""Vivian""What do you want-""I just wanted to call your name." Kirito said with a smile.

    Vivian was back home again. But her mind was still resounding Fate's words."This is the key" "Key to what?" Her hair grew to its original length and her clothes changed back.Everything was back to how it was-- Except the choker. She looked at her reflection in the mirror and then looked at the golden choker. She tried pulling it out but it was fixed on her neck."What the--" She applied some cream to pull it off, soap, oil, powder, but nothing worked. She took a hammer and decided to break it. She pulled it away and hit the hammer on it. She tried everything she could think off but it didn't come off.Finally, tired, she threw herself back on the bed. "What the hell, so this is what it is? I can't remove it," She said to herself. "It looks so weird to go out with this but I need to buy the groceries..."Aoi was on target. He sneezed as he sat inside his room, playing video games."Something unnecessary is going to happen."

    Vivian was sleeping under the blanket when she suddenly felt fingers tracing her waist. Kirito slid his fingers from her waist to her hips. She quickly opened her eyes and saw that he was on top of her."Oh my God." She covered her mouth. "Vivian, let's fuck," He removed his shirt."Oh no!" Vivian said but he grabbed both her hands and looked deep into her eyes "Do you think I'm asking you for your permission?" His blue-green eyes dominated her blue eyes. Vivian blushed and he gave a half-smirk."Alright then,""No""No...No... Yes,""I said get the fuck up," Kirito said and Vivian opened her eyes. "Huh?""I've fried eggs," Kirito pointed towards the dining table."Eggs? You fried them?""Fresh up and let's eat""Okay," Vivian looked at him."Do I have something on my face?" He asked."No, I'll go!" She ran into the bathroom. She locked the door and pressed her back on it."I can't believe mys

    "I'm sorry I couldn't save us all" Vivian said with a sad smile as she looked at Ethan. "But I can," Maya said as she walked towards them. Lucus and Fate looked at her. Her hair grew longer and turned golden from brunette. Her eyes turned blue, just like death. Ethan looked at her with surprise. "It's you" He said as he looked at her. "Who is it?" Vivian asked "...The girl that saved me from drowning that day" Ethan said. She pressed her hand on his face "Do you know why you couldn't die after all those efforts?" She asked as she looked into his eyes and his eyes turned light blue too. "I saved you, everytime" She said "I shall do that today too" Her yellow wings opened from her back and her white key appeared on her neck "Who are you?" Vivian asked. "Just like you are Death's blood, Ethan is my blood" She said with a smile as a white book appeared in her hand. "The Bulosum... I knew it" Fate said. "Life..." Lucus said. She tou

    As Kurosawa got up, Lucus raised his hand while holding his Antabulam in it. "The reaper's pride- Come forth my scythe!" He said but nothing happened. Fate looked at him with surprise. He looked at his Antabulam."Why isn't it working?" Lucus said and Kurosava started laughing like a madman."Ahahaha!!" He laughed for a minute continuously as everyone stared at him "That's right... I couldn't die. And how could I? Everything I wanted could not be mine and above that-- I even lost what I had! And you know who is responsible for that-- You! Ethan Evaganza! I was always more talented but I was never given what I deserved!People were always unfair with me! Such people who cannot respect art and talent deserve no place in this beautifully rotten world! They must be killed for better people to take their place!

    "Maria" Kurosawa said as he held his sick wife's hand. Her skin was moist and sticky. "You shouldn't come here often. What if you catch this disease too? You know it's infectious" She said."Nothing will happen to me. I will take you abroad and we will cure you" Kurosawa said as he looked into her eyes."That sounds like it'll take a lot of money. Leave me just like this. You don't have to do anything at all" She said."My sister is rich. And once I inherit the company, it'll be alright. I'll have the money for your treatment" Kurosawa said as he squeezed her hand.She moved it away "Don't touch me, you might get infected" She said. He hugged her "I don't care" He whispered in her ear..."What?" Kurosawa said as he stood in front of Mrs Hiomi, inside her room as the maids dressed Kirito's hair and fixed his clothes."I've decided. Kirito will inherit my company and Aoi will inherit their father's company" Mrs Hiomi said.

    "Who is it now?" Vivian said and looked at the clock. It was about to be eight in the evening. Fate looked at the door.Vivian touched the doorknob "Don't open it" Fate said. Vivian turned towards her. She took her Grecabulum and Vivian's Antabulam in her arms. "Fate--" She stood with her back pressed on the front wall. Vivian looked ahead at the doorknob. The doorbell rang again. "What is it?""I don't know. But, I'm scared" Fate said "I don't wanna know what's behind that door" Fate said. He pushed the doorbell for the third time. Vivian grew sweaty as she moved away from the door. Fate pressed her pen between her teeth.Finally, he began hitting the door "I know you're in there, Vivian" He said with a smile. Vivian recognised his voice "Why are you here?" She asked as she moved further behind."I'm here with a gift, Vivian. Open the door""I don't want it. Go away""Don't say that, Vivian.

    Maya mixed something in the beer bottles and kept them inside the fridge. She left for work after that.After some time, Ethan got up and looked around "Oh... I slept..." He looked at the time. It was evening. He moved towards the fridge and opened it "Beer? I thought she threw it. Well..." He took a can and drank some of it.He immediately threw up "Gross!" He said. He threw it in the dustbin and tried another can. Then another, then another. He finally gave up and slept back....Vivian kept the piece of paper inside an envelope and pressed the stamp on it. Sejok pressed the horn "Hurry up, Vivian!" He said.She took a deep breath and kissed the envelope. She posted it on her way to the party. They got down on the red carpet. Every celebrity was there. The paparazzis surrounded her and camera flashes followed up. Other celebrities began whispering among themselves.Maya looked over from the crowd and saw Vivian surrounded b

    Ethan was forced to shave for his makeup to go smoothly. Maya touched his wet face right after he shaved. "Hmm... Good skin, prez!" She said."Now, close your eyes" He looked reluctant but she was stubborn and irritating so he just did what she told him.She sprayed a hydrating spray on his face and hence commenced the make up! "I'm shocked you didn't say something like "Guys don't put makeup"" She said in a grumpy voice while applying the base of the makeup."I've seen male models too," He said."...Male models wearing lingerie--""I've been invited to certain business firms and fashion shows so no. Thankfully I haven't seen that yet and I hope I never do" Ethan said."Okay done! Next- Highlighter!" She said as she searched her purse. She applied the blush on his cheeks and then applied the highlighter. She did the contour and an eyeshadow."Now~ I'll just put on a lip balm. Sunny Peach is like my favourite shade" She said as she app

    Vivian and Fate stood face to face. Vivian couldn't understand what fate was trying to tell her and Fate understood that."There are three divine angels- Life, Fate and Death. Rest all are made by them. All other angels were mortals before except the three divine angels. They are angels by birth.We are strictly prohibited from interacting with mortals. We can talk to their souls, but not in their consciousness. About a few hundred years ago, Death broke that rule. He killed a human girl before her time because he fell for her. He learned then that he could keep the soul away from the stairs if he tore away the page of the Antabulam. So, he did that. She would go around with him everywhere. Just like you followed him everywhere after you died, she was just like that.She didn't like the name "Death", so she named him "Jericho". They both loved each other dearly and soon she got pregnant. The child wasn't an angel, it was a mortal girl who had Death's blood in he

    Maya picked Ethan up on her back and walked towards his apartment. "You aren't heavy at all for a man, prez! Tell me your secret diet!" She stood in front of the apartment's door. "Is this it? 6556?" She asked as she looked at the door. He nodded. "What's the password?""The same number," He said. He seemed completely wasted."Dumb" She opened the door and walked inside "Wow!" She said as she looked at the mess "My house is the same after any breakup or after some makeup disaster!" She moved towards the bedroom and lay him on the bed.She removed his wet shirt and threw it aside. He slept instantly. "It's so hot and suffocating here!" She opened the balcony door. "Much better" She removed her wet one piece and wore one of Ethan's shirts from his wardrobe. She looked at the lower section of the cupboard and found a woman's clothes."Prez! You're living with a girl!?" She exclaimed "And still your house is so dirty! You both must be lazy or she must be a di

    Fate walked towards Lucus with her Grecabulum in her hands as he stood on a road in Romania, looking at a dying cat "She has forgotten that she is an angel" Lucus looked at Vivian's Antabulam."In that matter, she's just like you," Fate said. Lucus looked at her as she sat beside him."I thought of them today, it pissed me off," Fate said "We are mere spectators. You shouldn't interfere anymore, Death""Can't we prevent this?" He asked."That's for her to decide. Shall mortals decide which blue gate they'll take? Either that blue will calm them like the ocean or drown them like their fate""Ocean... No matter harmless or calm it seems, it can kill somebody" Lucus said "It hurts like hell to see her hurt""Well, she is like a rolling stone mediating between her two lives. But, a rolling stone gathers no moss,""Yes. But it certainly gains a certain polish,""I don't know what to say..." She looked at the cat."Everything
