Amira breath out loudly. She slumped on the bed and then winced in pain. Her hand huddled with her gown, and to its pocket. Then she felt it and suddenly remembered.
She quickly sat up and brought out the necklace. Her fingers rubbed on it as she remembered his heavenly smile.
He looked appealing. It made her want to look at him all day.
"If an angel was this handsome and heavenly then the Devíl will certainly be an ugly charcoal pot". She snorted.
What is he was.. you know... Devilishly handsome? The thought crossed her mind and she shook her head vigorously.
Time slowly went by and soon it was night time... Well there was nothing peculiar about day and night. Down here there was no sun but the sky would brighten up like on a cloudy day on earth and at night. It was pitch black, you can't even see your hand..
She sat on the bed, and rubbed the jade she had placed on her neck.
"Zamael..." She called softly.
Her lips curled into a smile when the room was suddenly invaded with bright light.
"Are you ready to leave"? Zamael asked with his hand outstretched.
Amira held his hand and her heart skipped. It was almost like the feeling of touching a cloud.. you could feel it yet you could not feel more than just a brush...
Zamael tightened his hold on her, and the slowly vanished.

Lucifer went through the eye after he had calmed himself. He casually flipped through the days activities and his gaze landed on Zamael.
Didn't he leave?... His eyes became filled with flames as he continued to watch, he saw the interaction between Zamael and the tiny little human.
He heard Zamael proposing to send her back. Then he heard the girl asking to move it to tonight.
Since when has he been a good Samaritan?
Finally he sensed that feeling again. That heavenly feeling.
His eyes darkened. He gritted his teeth to contain his brining rage.
"Fine! You wanted my attention little human? You finally have it"!!!...

Amira looked around her familiar room and her face lit up.
How much she had missed this place.
"I'm sorry.." Zamael apologized. He had to do this so that Ramael would take notice of her..
Amira looked up at his with big bright eyes.
"You shouldn't be apologizing. I should be thanking you for bringing me back".
"I'm apologizing because even though I brought you back, I can't stop the Devíl from taking you back to hell if he notices your absence". Zamael frowned. Knowing Ramael, his reaction will be unimaginable.
Amira smiled politely.
"It's fine. I was the one who wanted to leave anyway. Even if he comes back I can't possibly stop him".
"If you say so. I'll take my leave now. Someone is coming". Zamael bade her goodbye and vanished.
Amira sat on her bed and looked around quietly. It's only been a week since she left but it felt like years.
Her eyes rested on the opened door and her heart skipped.
It was her father....
She had despised him for choosing his people over his own daughter but seeing him now, he couldn't find that hatred.
Maybe she had just been ângry momentarily.
"Amira..."? King Cyrus called in surprise. Since his daughter left, he had been filled with regrets and would come to her room everyday.
Amira stood up from the bed. She didn't know if to go to him or not.
"Father..."
King Cyrus smiled happily. He walked to her with quick steps and pulled her into a hug.
"My daughter. Father is sorry. I know it's been two years now please forgive me". He said with teary eyes.
Amira caught a key point in what he said. Two years.. how's that possible. She has only stayed in hell for a week. How did it behind two years on earth?
"Dad.. has it really been that long"? She asked in uncertainty.
King Cyrus nodded.
"Yes... Your system won't even talk to me anymore".
Amira shut her eyes and relinquished the feeling of being in her father's arms. It felt so strong and gave her a feeling of safety.
"Look who finally realized that she has a home". Christine said sarcastically from the door.
"Christy..." Amira called out in a chocked voice. Maybe it has been as long as her father said cause her sister looks just like her age.
Christine scoffed. "I thought you might have even forgotten my name".
Amira shook. Not knowing what else to say, she simply apologized.
"I'm sorry"...
"Can you not take fault in everything that happens? Can't you get annoyed or ângry"? Christine snapped in tears.
She was clearly the one that pushed her away. Yet it was Amira who was apologizing.
King Cyrus quietly left. Although he missed his daughter, he could tell the girls needed time for themselves.
"I'm sorry." Christine's head dropped.
"I'm sorry for saying those stupid things. I was in mature and selfish. You were right about not letting me go with him and I'm grateful for a big sister like you". She said with shâme.
Amira smiled self-depreciatingly "I didn't even realise so much time has passed. Back where I was, only a week had passed.
Christine's eyes widened.

Lucifer stood by the window unnoticed by the girls. He watched them laugh and chat about hell.
After so many years of not leaving his palace, he was made to do so by a little human.!
His heart churned in irritation. Again he was certain that Zeus had an purpose and it was related to this girl.
His eyes fell on the necklace on her neck and his irritation spread out.
Amira turned to the window and her heart skipped. The sky had turned ominous like it was brewing darkness and evil in it.
