Chapter 6, Goodbye Amber.
-Alice's point of view-
"Alice, are you ready?" Benjamin asked. "Benjie, are you sure? Amber would be.." I stuttered, not wanting to know. "Devastated?" He completed my sentence for me. I nodded my head. "Well.. She would, but look here, she had survived till now, and she's got Joel to take care of her. She'll be fine." Benjamin said, reassuring me. "But, she'll probably hate me, for not saying a proper goodbye.." I said, trailing off. "A dream is more than enough.But now, your job here on Earth is done. Rest in peace," he said. I closed my eyes, thinking of everything. Each and every memory that I had, flashed in my head, over and over again.
Goodbye Amber, have a good life with Joel, I wish you all the best.. I prepared myself for what I knew would happen next.
Benjamin takes his Angela seraphin, and places the tip on Alice's head. "Go now, for your job is done on Earth, you shall rest in peace in the hands of God," He said, tapping his Angela on her forehead, her stomach, followed by her left and right shoulder respectively. "Thank you Benjie," Alice said quietly, her eyes still closed. Benjamin smiled silently to himself. "Bless you," He added, before Alice burst into a million shattered brightly-lit crystals, along with a burst of multi-coloured lights, as a phoenix emerged from the biggest shard of crystal, heading for heaven.
I'll always remember you, Amber, my dear friend.Treasure your life, live it to the fullest.Remember, I'll support you in whatever decision you choose, and I'll always remember you. No matter what happens, you'll always be the one true friend I love, always.I'm sorry you didn't know of my death,cause I lied, and you trusted me.I didn't want you to know, anyway.Cause I couldn't bear to see the look on your face,that's why I came back.I want you to be strong, and love.I know you hurt, I hurt too.So the only thing I could do,is to make you love again.I'll be watching you in heaven.I prayed silently, hoping Amber would hear me.
