Somewhere that is not Earth but looks like a paradise. It seems to be a place for souls to spend their eternity after their death.
A soul was wandering in the place not knowing where to go. One of the angels noticed that soul and approached it.
“Are you lost? Do you need any help? “, the angel asked. The angel's voice sounded so soothing for the soul's ears.
“I...... Don't know where I am. What is this place? “, the soul asked in a confused manner.
“This place is for souls to rest after their death. The souls who suffered will be here to forget their tragic lives and enjoy their eternity with happiness ", the angel replied.
“But what are you doing here? You aren’t a human, are you? I have never seen you on earth before”, the angel asked the soul.
“What are you saying? I am a human. How would I have a soul if I wasn’t a human? “, the soul asked in a confused manner.
“I have seen all the humans that have lived and living on Earth. But I have never seen you before”, said the angel.
“Wait, let me check something “, the angel added.
The angel raised his/her hands and touched the soul to see the past of the soul.

It’s a fine morning….. No, it’s an early morning when the sun hasn’t even risen yet. Everyone would be sleeping right now but here a woman who has the dangerous and charming beauty of a villainess is standing in front of an alluring beauty who is currently tied to a pillar.
Let’s see what is happening….
“Why are you doing this to me? ”, asked Angela. Tears are flowing out from her eyes.
The emotions in her eyes can say that she is feeling betrayed and hurt because of the other person.
“Aren't I your sister? Didn’t I love you more than myself? “, Angela asked in agony.
She can't believe that her little sister is standing in front of her holding a gun to kill her.
Didn’t she spoil her little sister with love and care? Then why is she doing this to her? Like this, so many questions are going inside Angela’s mind. She sometimes thinks this is not the same baby sister that she loved. She was such a sweet and kind girl. She will never have the heart to hurt her big sister.
“Do you-….. hate me that much?”, Angela asked while sobbing.
“Huh! Hate you?!! Nah!! I loathe you!!!...... You-… you have to die!! Yes! You have to die! Only then I will be happy!! “, Serena said somewhat behaving like a psycho.
*What am I saying? No, I can't control my body and mouth. What should I do? What is happening to me? *, Serena thought in mind.
Even if Serena was behaving like a psycho in front of Angela she was panicking inside as she was doing something that she didn’t intend to do. She doesn’t want to hurt her sister. Her heart bleeds to see her sister being hurt because of her. But what can she do? She can’t control her body as if someone possessed her.
Her heart aches to see the betrayed emotion in her sister's eyes for her. Those eyes which were once filled with love for her looking at her like she is some betrayer.
She wanted to scream that she(Serena) loves her(Angela). She wanted to say “Sister you are like my second mother. I can’t see tears in your eyes. I don't know what is happening to me. I didn’t want to hurt you”
But she can't. Her body is acting on its own. Her mouth is talking like it has its consciousness. But is that even possible?
When Serena was having inner turmoil her hand which had a gun slightly rose against her sister. Serena's heart started to beat faster. She tried to lower her hand but it didn’t even budge. At that time she wished for someone to come and save her sister from her. She wished to die for making her sister go through this.
BANG‼️
A handsome man in his mid-twenties rushed towards Serena and punched her. The gun in her hand slipped away. He grabbed her hair from the back.
“Ungrateful bitch!! How dare you to hurt my love?!! “, he said angrily. Rage can be seen in his eyes.
“Luis”, Angela called him. Her voice came out as a whisper.
“Love...”, he called her affectionately and ran towards her(Angela) leaving Serena on the ground.
Serena was thanking God for making him arrive at the right time. If he was even a second late she would have killed her sister with her own hands. If that has happened she will never forgive herself ever again.
While Serena was in her thoughts her body moved automatically to grab the gun which was on the ground. Her eyes widened realizing that her body was again acting on its own.
Her hand once again raised to shoot her sister but even before she reacted she got shot in her hand.
“AHHHHH!!! “, Serena shouted in pain.
“Rena!!! Why did you shoot her Luis? “, Angela panicked seeing her baby sister being hurt.
“Why are you still worrying about her when she didn’t even hesitate to kill you? “, Luis shouted in anger.
Angela ignored his shouting and went towards Serena.
“Are you okay baby? Is it hurting? “, Angela asked in a concerned tone.
Serena gritted her teeth and said “You didn’t have to worry about me. Why are you even acting like you care for me?”
“ I DON'T NEED YOUR FAKE CONCERN”, Serena shouted and grabbed the gun fast and aimed at her sister's heart to shoot.
BANG‼️
.
.
.
.
.
.
Serena's lifeless body fell on the cold floor. Her heart was drilled by a bullet from Luis's gun. Seeing her sister’s dead body in front of her(Angela) she didn’t know how to react. She wants to scream so badly but nothing is coming out of her mouth. It’s like someone is forcing her to keep her mouth shut.
On the other side Luis doesn't even know why he shoots Serena. You may think that he did that to save Angela. But he didn’t!! He knew if he killed her(Angela’s) sister she would never forgive him in her entire life. But how did this even happen?
For a second he felt like he was controlled by some force but what was it?
.
.
.
A few days later Angela and Luis decided to marry each other and led the rest of their life happily. But the question is was their life happy? For some reason, they always felt like their life was controlled by someone.
.

“So you are Serena? “, asked the angel.
“Yes, I am”, Serena replied.
The angel sighed and said “This is a rare case”
“What do you mean? “, Serena asked the angel.
“Listen to me carefully. You are not a human but a character in a novel who wasn’t supposed to have their consciousness because they are just an imagination of a human”, the angel said calmly.
“Wh-.. What? “, Serena was beyond shock after hearing what the angel said.
“It’s true my dear. You aren’t supposed to have your consciousness but somehow you awakened your consciousness. Because of that, you have developed a soul”, the angel said.
“You were a villainess in that novel who is jealous of her sister and tried to snatch her love, framed her innocent sister who love you abundantly. They have to kill you to have a happy ending. That’s the reason your brother-in-law killed you”, the angel added.
The angel continued and said “Even if you are a soul now you can't live here. This place is only for humans. I will ask God if you can stay here or do you wish to go back to the novel world again? “
Tears are flowing out of her(Serena's) eyes. What is she hearing? She is a villainess in her sister's life? She isn’t able to believe that she is hearing something like this. She wished this to be a dream. All her life and miseries were just the imagination of a human? How cruel is the human to imagine her going through this? These thoughts covered her mind. She is just blankly staring at a place. Her eyes became lifeless.
And about going back nothing will change even if she goes back. She knows that well. She knows that she will be once again controlled by that human.
The angel tried calling her but Serena wasn’t hearing anything. She is standing like a statue. The angel thought maybe she needed some time to digest everything and left her(Serena) in her thoughts.

What will happen now? Will she be able to find her happiness? Will the angel help her to find her happiness? Will Serena stay here forever or find a way to come out of the novel author's clutches?
