Chapter 26 - Chapter 26: Interfering with grim reaper's job

This is the fifth ice cream he's buying, he's getting worried she'd have a stomach ache but she keeps demanding more and she would soon finish the one she's drinking.

' I need to do something, I need to do something. Yes. ', an idea came to his mind,

" Amelia do you know what a roller coaster is?",

" no", she said still licking her ice cream,

" then let's go for a ride", he pulled her away before she got to ask for another.

" ahhhhhhh", Ryan screamed as the roller coaster kept moving while Amelia was enjoying the wind blowing at her face, she missed this. It reminded her of a lot of moments she couldn't cherish, realized how fortunate and beautiful it is to have wings and stand in the sky, having the whole place at your feet and enjoying the beautiful sight. But that's never going to happen again, she's no longer an angel, and there's nothing special about her anymore. She's now a deserted angel, a worthless angel.

She only came out of her thoughts when the ride finally came to an end, immediately she got out of the ride, she began to vomit.

"Are you okay? I'm so sorry I should have let the ice cream cool down first",

" I'm fine",

Ryan helped her get water and watch her face and mouth,

" This reminds me of a day we came for a ride with Liam",

" Liam ride this too?",

" no, he doesn't like it, but he rides it because of someone",

" Who?",

" Sophia, you can say she's his favorite",

'favorite? again? Tania was also the king's favourite that's why he's so blinded and determined to send me away not even caring, does that mean, one day Liam would also send me away? because I'm not his favorite? ',

" Are you okay Amelia?",

" mm. mmm",

" did you need anything?",

" yes",

" what's that?",

" I want to go home", she said feeling teary,

" I'm so sorry for what happened I didn't...",

" Ryan I'm fine, I just need to rest", she said walking away. Ryan felt bad and hurt, he thought he must have hurt her or something and was hurt because he wished to spend more time with her. He exhaled and went after her.

" did you think she'd be fine?",

" Trust me, princess, she will, humans are so complicated that sometimes they might decide not to believe or accept something even if it is right in front of them", Riya said, " since when have you been here princess",

" stop calling me princess, I'm a deserted one already",

" as far as you didn't go into the demon kingdom, you'll always be an angel and a princess",

" Not only humans are complicated and also I lost count of the days I've spent here but it's been a while ",

" and you already made a friend?", Riya asked looking surprised, " that's so fast",

" Maybe I just got lucky, cause I have a roof now also",

Riya smiled, " unbelievable, yeah you are lucky, you are an angel",

" a deserted angel", she corrected. Before she could reply she quickly changed the conversation as they strolled down the road, " how's your new job so far?", she asked referring to being a grim reaper,

" stressful especially when I was still ordered to be escorting dead soldiers that died during the war",

" what war?",

" Well, there's an ongoing war between Russia and Americans involving London since their minerals are in a robbery threat",

" is that what they can't resolve amicably but had to go to war? do they even know what war is?",

" well humans know but they don't care, I mean, all they are after is money and success and once they get that, they begin to chase after fame, as if that's not enough, they still pursue power",

Amelia scoffed, "What a set of demons ",

" what a set of greedy people, I mean, some politicians purposely set their child to the battlefield and purposely blow off one of the soldiers' legs fabricating it that their well-trained son risked his life to save the peculiar soldier as in what for, a soldier that went to the battlefield for his country and because of your greed? you made him live his whole life in pain, some even made their sons die on the battlefield to gain fame, sympathy, and favor",

Amelia was boiling as she kept saying all that, "When you know all this why then don't you help those innocent people that ain't even aware they are victims?",

" it is one of the grim reapers' rules, never interfere with human business",

" that's bullshit",

"Princess? Where did you learn all these words?", Riya asked looking surprised,

" movies, I've been watching a lot of movies at Bree's place",

" ho, okay Your Highness, I have work to do here",

" a work, here on the road?",

" yes", she said and pointed at a little boy, " you see that boy over there?",

Amelia trailed her finger to the boy, " yes",

" he is in the record to die at 9 years of age, today and on this road",

" why?",

" the dog he's holding will suddenly run across the road at the sight of a female dog and while trying to get him, he'll get hit by a car",

Amelia's face dropped, " that's unfair",

" that's his fate",

She said and put on her hat becoming invisible. Amelia watched as the dog ran across, she turned to the running car and then back at the boy trying to chase after his dog. She couldn't watch another kid getting hit by a car right in front of her again. She ran across the road opposite the boy.

"Princess no!", Riya shouted but it was too late.
