For some, death is a scary thing, but for me, death is freedom. I still remember the first time I was diagnosed with an incurable disease. With how sensitive I've been since childhood, I find it hard to get used to the smell of hospitals, but I'm now 25 and I'm proud that I've managed. I've been treated by doctors since I graduated from university. I have a good life. supportive and understanding parents, cool friends... But of course, I feel like there's still something I want to accomplish.

"Azh..."

*sounds of knife cutting an apple*

"What do you want to do when you reborn into a much healthy body?".

I paused reading, put down my book then smiled. "I want to try doing things that I couldn't do before...eating ice cream while enjoying the fresh breeze outside with my family...sports, painting, biking, partying...you name it! I want to do all of it"

*cough, cough, cough*

"I would also like to be an author and write books like this", chuckling as I told him my dreams while pointing the book I was reading.

"Also...to fall in love...and marry someone..."

But no matter how beautiful would that be, it was all nothing but a wishful thinking, a permanent daydream. On the Summer season of April 20XX, I died.

~*~*~*~*~

"Augh! What the- I thought I died? Where is this pla-" *Gasp* As I looked down, I found myself in a bed with a stranger. She was laying her half upper body beside me while sitting in a wooden chair and holding my hands as if she was waiting for me to wake up. I froze in shock as I was processing the current scene.

"Ummm, good morning?" I blinked as she sleepily greeted me.

I stayed quiet for a minute and I'm still not coming to my senses "Excuse me? Is this how people enter the gates of heaven?"

"Heaven? Pfft~ Haha Sorry, you're just so- Your wound is right on your arm and not on your head, right? Did the poison affect your head too? What's wrong with you?"

She was really laughing hard but I'm not surprisingly annoyed. I was still focusing on what's happening when she flicked off her finger on my forehead.

"Also, since when did you call me miss? I'm your elder sister, dummy. Don't treat me like a stranger"

"Sister? Who? I-I don't have a sister, "

She gave me a grimace before I could even say anything else. "Those scoundrels, sh*t!"

I have no idea why, but she seemed really disturbed.

"Wait here, I'll get father and the physician"

She glared at thin air and left the room, leaving me with a lot of unanswered questions. "They really crossed the line this time," she said.

My entire body is numb and I can hardly feel my arms as I try to collect myself and reach for a cup of water from the right side table then-

*shatter*
