Anthem POV
"Hi." My greeting to Alesya's soul.
Actually I was disappointed in myself because I miscalculated. I should've watched him from the night, I just focused on the hour of his death.
"Hi, are you Anthem? Am I dreaming? And is it because you're too perfect that I imagine you as an angel?" Alesya asked smiling.
Goddamnit! I want to hug her!
"No. You're correct. I'm an angel, a pathetic angel." My answer.
"The angel is always great and great, there is no pitiful angel." Alesya said while giggling small.
"I'm not." My rebut.
Alesya shook her head, "You're handsome. Winged or not, I still consider you my life's savior." Answer Alesya.
The deg!
I feel even more guilty for bringing Leslie the source of her happiness.
"Alesya, I have something to tell you. Before I apologized, I was the angel of death and I was the one who took Leslie." My leg's bowed.
Alesya was speechless, her tears were already very ready to immediately come down from her eyes.
"Then can you take me too?" Ask Alesya.
I shook my head, "I can't take you because the Sovereign gives you one more chance to live. Then we're here." My speech.
Alesya looked around, "This is the station?" Ask Alesya.
I nodded, "Yes, you have two choices. Want to go on or on?" My toot.
"Where to go?" Ask Alesya.
The same question is always asked by humans who stop by this station.
"Thus you will continue the cleansing process of your sins." My answer.
"Am I..."
I smiled wryly, "You can't meet Leslie. The cause of your death is different. Leslie's death has been determined by the Lord while you, your death it is you who determine it therefore your path is different." My answer.
"Will I be in hell and Leslie in heaven?" Ask Alesya again.
"There is no heaven or hell. All beings will eventually return to Him." My answer.
Alesya was speechless, she walked down the railroad tracks and sat on the edge.
"It's very peaceful here." He said while taking a breath.
"Because it's lonely." My answer.
"Will there be time waiting for me?" Ask Alesya again.
I nodded then Alesya asked back to me, "If I ask you, what is your decision for my life?"
Now it's my turn to be silent, "I? I'll ask you to keep living." I answered without hesitation.
Alesya's gaze turned to me, "Why?" Ask.
"Because I love you and I want to live with you." My answer.
Yeah, that's my final decision.
When the Sovereign asked me if I was ready to be human, I was hesitant at first but the Sovereign gave me a choice.
I will relinquish the title of Best Death Angel of All Time if I become a human on the condition that I must successfully guide Alesya.
Because the cause of her death was to try to kill herself and it was not allowed, the Lord gave me the task of a lifetime to guide Alesya so that she could find her light and happiness.
"Why can you love me, Anthem?" Ask Alesya.
I shrugged my shoulders, "Let's go, it just happened. It was supposed to be your death and Alesya a month ago but I begged the Sovereign to let you live and He saw you have the passion to live so He granted my wish." My answer.
"That's because you came, Anthem. You come into my life, you give me light in my life. Like Matt's story about his mafia friend. He is saved by an extraordinary magical girl who is able to turn his dark and cold life into light and warm." Answer Alesya.
"You came at the right time. When we lose hope and passion for life. I was desperate to see a sickly Leslie and I didn't have enough money to take her to medical attention, and I didn't even have time to go with her. And just as someone answered my prayers and hopes, you came. Suddenly my life changed, I could see the world became more beautiful. Maybe that's what Matt's friend meant. You are my light, Anthem." Alesya.
I wanted to hug her but as a professional worker I resisted that urge. Even I held back my tears from going down even though I was anxious to cry right now.
"You've got five minutes Alesya. Think of it." My solute.
"Anthem, would if I woke up later I'd forget this conversation?" Ask Lea.
I nodded, "Yes." Answer's short.
Alesya stood up and held my nape, gently she brought her face closer to me then she landed her lips against mine.
Alesya closed her eyes, and for the Sovereign's sake what should I do?
I don't care about professional work! I kissed Alesya back and grabbed her by the waist and put her in my arms.

Beeping...beeping.
Shuts!
Matt, Lea and Rue surround Alesya's hospital bed. I saw Alesya with a ventilator and other equipment.
"How's it?" Ask Lea.
I shrugged my shoulders, "I'm waiting for me, right?" My answer.
They held and held my hand. Whatever Alesya's decision I will still appreciate it.
I didn't force him to stay alive, nor did I force him to continue. I handed all these decisions to him. I let him think what he wants. My only job is to guide him and that's what I did.
"How long will he be up there?" Ask Matt.
"I gave him five minutes to think." My answer.
Matt protested, "It's too soon! You have seven minutes to think! She's a volatile woman, Anthem. Be kind." Matt exclaims.
"I've been kind to Matt. There are no angels as good as me! I am the Angel of Death, but I am good. Very good." I said to be proud of myself.
"Would he choose to live later, you would turn into a human? Don't you love your pretty cool black wings?" Tanya Lea was warming up.
I looked back, "Actually I love my wings more than anything in the world but that all changed when I met Alesya. He quickly topped the table in my heart. And he became my darling after my cool black wings." Answer me without regret.
"The ruler is unfair! You become human, and I am made immortal! Huh!" Lea cried.
"Because you have nothing to contribute but to be a burden in the world if you become human later, hahahaha!" My ejek.
"Fucking angel!" Tukas Leah, "lucky you are Anthem, because now that we are in the hospital I did not attack you! Hmh!" Reply Leah again.
Aahh, my spirit came back because I managed to piss Lea off.
Beeping..beeping.
"Anthem, look at Alesya! See the graphics!" Rue and Matt exclaimed.
"I'll call the doctor!" Matt ran to find a doctor.
Alesya moved her finger, then her head to the right and to the left.
The doctor came and swiftly examined Alesya, "We wait until she comes to her senses." Said doctor.
"Miss Simpson. Did you hear me?" Ask the doctor and check the light response using a small flashlight.
"Miss Simpson." Call the doctor again.
Before long, Alesya blinked her eyes.
"Miss Simpson, did you hear my voice?" Ask the doctor again.
Alesya nodded slowly.
I advanced towards Alesya, "Hi." My broom.
Alesya smiled behind her ventilator and clasped my hand, I whispered in her ear, "Thank you for wanting to survive."
