Chapter 2 - Life After Death

"Big Sis did you get my lunch pack??" Carla asked immediately she came out of the bathroom and I nodded as confirmation, then I picked up her lunch box and my bag

"Are you ready now" I asked her and she nodded then she picked up her school bag and ran to meet me , then we walked out of the house together.

Hello everyone, My name is Laura Reins a high school graduate, although I graduated few years ago, after the mysterious death of my parents I couldn't further my college education cause my relatives took away my parents properties after accusing me of killing my parents. Now I'm left with my 4 years old sister, Carla Reins.

I got to Carla school on time and I dropped her off before heading to my workplace. I work as Nano's assistance in her little Nano's Corner where she sells hot soup and chilled beer especially in the evening cause that's when customers troupe in but during the day we just prepare soup to be sold in the evening. Most time we also get orders from people in the morning too.

"You're late today Laura.... That's two times in a a week" Nona announced as soon as she saw me and I smiled brightly at her while she shook her head

"Sorry Nona... Carla wanted a new lunch box so I had to get it for her this morning before taking her to school... I'm sorry" I explained and she shook her head as she picked up a big bowl from the counter to clear up the dishes on the customers table.

"It's okay child ... I know hoe Carla can be sometimes... Now go in and change let's get to work ... We have lots of order to attend to this morning " she said and i nodded as I smiled and hurried behind the counter, then ti the staff room where I changed my clothes to my work uniform, then I came out.

"Two plates of pork soup and two glasses of bear" Nona said as soon as she sighted me coming out of the staff room. She carried the bowl of dirty dishes to the kitchen and I followed behind to fetch the order

"Laura I won't tolerate sluggish attitude today... Be smart, be quick with whatever you're doing " she instructed and I nodded as I carried the soup on tray to the counter

"Jeeez she's all over me today... Ehmmm whose order is this???... Lemme get the beer first" i said as I placed the soup on the counter and sorted out two glass cups for the beer.

CARLA

It was lunch time and I escaped out if my class to play with Soora, Hyun and some other friends. We got to the friend and we saw other kids playing and having fun but Soora wasn't happy, she wanted our own privacy.

"Let's go back to the class to play hide and seek" Soora said and we all agreed and followed her to the back of the classroom.

"Carla you'll be masked while we will all hide " Hyun suggested, although I didn't want to be masked but since everyone was happy with it, I agreed to do it. I tied my eyes with a cloth and counted from one to ten so they can all go and hide.

"7... 8... 9... 10... Ready or not, here I come" i said th n I started moving round blindfoldedly to see if I'll catch any of them. Suddenly I heard a light scream and I smiled as I walked towards that direction

"Soora wake up.... Wake up Soora" I head Elliott's voice and I ran closer smiling as I stretched out my hands to catch either Elliott or Soora but suddenly I hit something and I fell down and hit my head on the ground.

" Ahhhh ouch... Ouch" I exclaimed as I quickly untied my eyes.

"Carla you've killed Hyun" one of my classmate said but I ignored her as I tried to get up. There was bruises on my knees and I couldn't move my legs. Just then few kids surrounded me and Started hitting me, some on my shoulder, some on my leg.

"You killed Hyun... You're a murder" They said and tears started rolling down my cheek. I wasn't crying because they were hitting me, I was crying because this day madee remember what my relatives and neighbours did to Carla when our parent died mysteriously.

"Soora is not breathing... Soora... Is dead too??" Elliot announced waking me up from my thought and all the other kids started screaming... Some saying I'm a murder, some saying I killed both Soora and Hyun, some saying I did it purposely... Everyone was saying a thing or the other, I was so confused and didn't know what to do as I was in one position unable to move cause of my damaged knees

"Everyone to your class now!" Mrs Brown shouted and everyone left leaving me and two dead bodies on the ground.

"Carla what have you done???... What is..." Mrs Brown said but stopped halfway when she saw the emergency officers coming with two stretchers to carry Soora and Hyun body.

After completing my assignment, i got to my apartment and sat on my sofa to relax, just then an envelope popped up on my table and I sighed as I picked it up from the table. A message from higher authority

After reading the letter, I took a shower, put on my work clothes and black hat before stepping out of the house. I got to YagYag Estate and I saw the young teenager carrying a bag heading to her house. I sighed then appeared inside her room. I waited there for her and in few minutes time, she walked into the room. I walked to her and touched her chest and her heart stopped beating then she fell to the ground while I waited for her soul to come out of her body.

Few minutes later, her soul came out and started at her body while I rolled my eyes and walked to the window to leave but her touch held me back .

" Why didn't you let me talk to my parents before killing me?" Her soul asked and i chuckled

"Nobody knows when death will come knocking... You should have spent more time with your parents when you had the chance" I replied as I moved closer to the window to leave but her soul held me back again

"Dying with unaccomplish dreams " her soul said and I chuckled

"When you meet the higher authority tell that to them... If you're a good person, you might undergo rebirth" I said before jumping out through the window and I appeared back home.

"Please no more assignment I need to relax for now" I said before heading to my room. I fell flat on the bed and in few minutes I slept off.

Few hours later I woke up due to the terrible nightmare I had. I sat up only to find TaeTae sitting on my room couch with a novel on her hand.

"Ohhhhh!.... He's awake" she said before dropping the novel on the arm of the sofa

"Did you manipulate my dream again?" I asked suspiciously and she laughed softly

"I don't use my powers on my colleague so be calm... That day I just did it to make you feel well and I apologized for it ... Anyways why do you have a mirror in your room?" She said as she stood up and walked to the mirror touching it. I ignored her and walked to the sofa, picked up the novel, placed in the shelf and sat down on the sofa

"It's not like you can even see yourself... You don't need it so just quite playing a dumbass and take this thing outta here. Anyways hope you still remember? You have a pending assignment" She said as she turned to where I saw sitting and I gave her a 'i will kill you' look while she just laughed

"Get out of my house!" I said calmly and she chuckled

"For how long do you intend to run away form it Terzan??... Run away and it will run after you" she said as she moved away from where I was. I stood up to meet her but she disappeared before I could get to her.
