Chapter 23
She goes inside the gate of heaven. She thought that even after entering the gate it will take some time to arrive in heaven. That they would have to walk in the gate some time. But instead of walking inside the gate for some time they arrived at heaven after the very step she foot inside the gate. But she was kinda disappointed after entering the heaven.
Light asks her about what she thought of heaven after entering the gate of heaven like this :"Are you surprised? So what do you think about heaven?"
Natsumi answers his questions with a dissatisfied face like this :"I thought it will be more beautiful than this. You could say I had greater expectation than this."
Heaven wasn't like what she thought it would look like. Not like any of the mythological or religion's information. The heaven almost look like earth. After entering the heaven through the heaven's gate she could see far away that there is some houses. The house wasn't like the house she lived in or any other people who lived and living in that same era as her. Half of those houses she looked was made my stone. Those houses were almost destroyed or about to be destroyed. The other half of those houses she saw looked like medieval era's european's house. She looked around but there was no changes from how the world looked like from earth. When she was younger she thought that the place called heaven would have giant palaces to live in. That the heaven would be technologically and geographically more evolved than the world she lived in or all the other world that exists beyond each of those separate gates. The environment wasn't too much bad or too much good. It's just was too much normal to be called heaven.
Light jumps and comes close to her and looks at her eye and asks her about why she was dissatisfied about it like this :"Oh my?! Oh my?! I thought you would like it. What is that in here.. in heaven you are dissatisfied with?"
Natsumi didn't get surprised by his weird action rather replies to him with angry voice like this :"Are you joking with me? Are to trying to mess with me like before?! How could this can be heaven this!! This is more like the past of our.. ahm. My world. After you made me cry some moments ago you are telling me lies now!!!"
Light tilts his head left.
Natsumi lost talking about this topic anymore so she replies to him for this action with an unamused face like this :"I knew. You wouldn't understand what I told you or asks you about cause even if you are God you are just an idiot god who can make people only sad and depressed. I was stupid to asks you about it. I should be happy that you brought me here after I died and not kill me even after I punched you. I am really grateful to you. Farewell."
She starts walking to find somewhere she could live or stay in this place. Light understand's what she said. He punched his left hand palm with his right hands.
Light replies to her farewell like this :"I am not joking with you or messing with you. This is really the heaven. The heaven's that you people were all talking and thinking about and still talking and thinking about from the beginning of humankind. Like I said before I didn't wanted to make you sad or cry. The sentences you read was said by your parents in your funeral also you were murdered it wasn't not an accident."
Natsumi stops walking and replies to him like this :"So you are still lying. You know I don't care anymore. I am sure that they will forget about all of it and all the sadness they felt about it. Like there is a saying that said that time will heal all wound. They are sadness and pain will heal in time. I hope my pain and sadness will heal over time. I am sure that my anger and hatred for you will also calms down over time."
After she said that to him she starts walking again.
Light replies to her like this :"Wait a minute"
She didn't stop walking rather she continues to walk towards one of the gate. She didn't reply to him.
Light shouts to her while putting both of his hand above his head and waving his hands trying to make Natsumi to look back like this :"Oi~Oi~ I wanted to give you something. Oi!!!! Natsumi chan" He continues to shout at her saying this words for sometime but she didn't reply to him or even look back to him. After sometime of shouting at her he gave up because she didn't reply or look back even after
Light thought to himself while looking at the direction she went with angry face because of Natsumi's this behavior like this [Every time she told me to wait I have always waited looked back to her, listen to her and now she do this to me! How ungrateful! But this is just how humans are I guess]
After some time of walking she arrived at one of the house that was made of stone and looked like one of the stone age's house.
In front of that house Natsumi asks if there is anybody in that house like this :"Does anybody live here? Is anyone here?"
But no reply came from the house.
Natsumi thought to herself like this [Nobody is answering. Is this place empty? It maybe just looking at the front of this house I can already tell that it is very old. In most of mythology it was described that heaven was created before earth or the universe created. It must be some of the old building from that time. It must be older than hundred thousands year. If I think like this this building is more like a relic from the past.]
After she thought that to herself she enters that building. That building was old as she thought. She looked at the drawing room. She saw that there is mattress in the floor but it was covered in dust. There was some broken glass falling all over the room. There was a old pictures other than these there was nothing worth mentioning or seeing. She moves to the other room walking avoiding the broken glass's shards. The other room was the dinning room. Rather being a room with dust and broken glass all over the place this dinning room was not filled with any dust or broken glass it was clean. It looked like a normal dining room. There was refrigerator in the room. There was also a light in that room. There was also a table with six chairs in that room. She also noticed that there is a book on that table. She got curious so she walk to that table take the book and sit in one of the chair that was there. The book title is :"Death Human's List". After she saw that title of that book he got more and more curious. She opens the book and looks at the contents of that book. She reads the book for sometime. Most of the contents and page of the book she read so far was filled with people's faces, there name, there time of birth, the time they died, the name of the world they got reborn to and the time they got reborn in another world. Sometime after seeing and reading the contents and pages of that book she hears someone sound humming some kind of song from the next room. She closed that book instantly after hearing the voice.
She thought to herself like this [That sound it came from the other room. Should I go? If it is dangerous than I shall run away as fast as possible]
After she thought that to herself she stands up from that chairs and move to the next room slowly. Staring at what was in that room she saw that was a black haired man wearing a cooking apron over a white shirt with black pants. He notices her and look at her. She startles
He got surprised and says this to her like this :"Long time no see"
Natsumi asks to him instantly lie this :"Who are you? And how do you know me?!!!!"
He replies to her like this :"I am Ban. Of course you wouldn't cause my hair is black now. Should I turn into what I looked like before?"
Natsumi remembers Ban and that Ban had yellow hair. And also that he is a human.
Natsumi shouts to him like this :"BAN?!!"
This was the fateful reunion between this two people. That will affect both him and her life drastically. But that is a story for a different time
