To Heaven and Back(Fantasy)_ Shivika SS_Chapter 6_(25.11.18)_Page 20

It was a regular night in the distant city The Street hawkers were counting their earnings calling it a day, small hotels and shops were closing their shutters. Street dogs were sniffing the left over foods from the road-side litter bins. The homeless beggars were collecting newspapers to spread on the cold road-if the little sleep after a long day can get a little warmer. The hustle-bustle of the city was growing calmer. The night was getting darker as the neon lights from the shops faded.

A little far away, on the hill top there stood a small row of houses. Few windows of those houses were lit up, others were dark. A window was waiting to open its wings after confirming every other window was shut down and there would be no other species other than the lonely streets, ghostly street lamps and some starts with a moon. Everyone is equally lonely.

As it crossed a little past midnight, with a scratch sound the window opened and a pair of eyes looked out. The honey-brown eyes blinked repeatedly at the sudden contact with the bright streetlight. Now the long eye lashes were pushed up along with the eye lids as she opened her eyes finally and stared at the lonely street. There was a mother dog snuggling against her little pups to provide them more warmth. Her eyes were fixed on them as if she really could see them. She inhaled a mouthful of air and exhaled slowly closing her eyes as a tear drop escaped from her eyes.

"I can't live this lonely life, anymore!" her melancholic voice sighed.

"You are assigned to escort Ms. Anika's soul here by this week. Are you ready?"

"Thank you so much for having faith in me. I'll not disappoint, I promise," Spoke Shivay. There was a determined twinkle in his eyes, as he bowed in front of The God of Death in gratitude for giving him his first assignment.
