Don't Be Afraid To Ask

*Last Chapter*

— I'm murderer — She kept saying.

First wasn't able to watch it more. He walked away to the nearest bench, sat on it and covered his eyes with hands.

— Damn, she is so strong, why doesn't she believe in herself? — He asked. — So pure soul... No wonder why so many hurt her, she was too sensitive. If she only fought for herself as she fought for others...

— I think she doesn't realize how brave she is — Khaotung answered, sitting next to him and putting his arm around him.

— I can't watch it. It's so painful. She wanted to help us even tho she didn't know us. I understand now why it should be as to take her here. There's not many people with so kind hearts... Why does she have to die?

— That's the reason — Angel of Death told them. — She's in pain but now, after your death, she created new world in her head where she's working with you, where she's able to save her favourite people and animals. But this way she hurts her parents and also herself. It's for everyone's good. She has to die.

— But she's so young! What if she was cured? And after that maybe she would have beautiful life? — First sounded desperated. Somehow he felt that this girl is not stranger to him, he used to see her sometimes in his dreams, but he was sure that he has never met her before. Just now he remembered that some people says that everything is a stardust and maybe all 3 of them were at some point parts of the same old star which died and separated them, but now fate let them meet again.

— From what I can see, she wouldn't have good future. Her parents will send her to hospital soon, but as far as I know, she won't get better.

— So we are the reason why she is like this?

— No, Khao, you're not guilty. She was suffering for many years, many bad things had happened to her. Yes, I agree that you were her safe zone and it broke her, when she lost it. She doesn't have friends, for world she was never enough.

— And us? Why did we have to die? We also were young?

— Sometimes there's no reason — Angel of Death shook his head.

— So... You're telling us that there's reason for  this girl to die but there wasn't any for our death? This is not fair!

Khao had difficulties with accepting that he had to leave his friends and family, all these he loved so much and he knew that they'll miss him.

First hugged him.

— I'm sorry. We died because of me. Tung, I'm so sorry — He cried feeling guilty. He knew he was the reason they both died, he wanted to protect Khao, but didn't predict that Tung will also want to protect him in return. When Zee showed them his gun, they knew what's coming. Zee pointed at First and shoot, he didn't give them any time to say anything. He came there to kill. His real face was finally shown. When they heard gunshot, NuNew Chawarin appeared in front of them. He came there to take them to afterlife. Or that was what he told them.

And now, when First thought about NuNew, he came out of nowhere, looking with curiosity at this girl. NuNew greeted her as an old friend, smiling to her. He kissed both her hands.

— Thank you for all what you've tried to do, Annie, you did great.

— But I failed, I didn't save anyone.

— No, Annie, you didn't fail. You died but your story will be known soon. Same as ours.

— Come, Annie, it's time for us to go — First showed her his open hand. She smiled, looked around for the very last time, trying to remember as much as she could. It was her room, here safe place but also her prison and she couldn't get out of this.

— I'll miss this place and everything here, I hope someone will take care of my parents, they don't deserve anything bad. They were like this because they don't know love or understanding, they didn't got it in their houses so they only gave me what they knew. I just wish for them to be happy. I hope that they will forget that they had a daughter. It will be less painful and they had enough pain in their lives, they deserve now to have only happiness.

After all this time none of them even thought about P'Zee being the bad one. He always was so nice for others, he took care of NuNew. Only Saint knew the whole truth about him, but Zee was very minupulative, he was master in gaslighting, in making Saint feel guilty for something, he never did in real life. When First and Khaotung told Annie about this, she couldn't believe.

— P'Zee... I... I never expected him to be the villain. He was so close to apologize for even breathing!

— Yeah, unfortunately it's his techinque. But now it's over, he got caught after he killed us, he will pay for what he did in another life.

Few moments later someone came into the room and started screaming. It was Annie's mom. She found her dead body. After that came Annie's dad. He was shocked, for few minutes he could move even finger.

— Don't worry guys, she's with us, everything will be fine — He said, knowing that they can't see or hear him.

— She's with us, she's safe — First added to Khao's speech.

For the first time they felt that there's nothing to worry about. Their souls were light, their hearts didn't beat anymore, there was no pain and even all these bad memories couldn't hurt them there anymore. New, Annie, First and Khao went out of this world together smiling and telling each other stories. For them this journey has finished, they had learned everything what they needed to learn, now they could just enjoy the promised to them Heaven together as friends who love each other without any boundaries.
