Chapter 6 - The Boy

A boy…a boy. What boy? Come on, Alice, concentrate. A boy, my age.

I've figured out what a Fallen is, but what is a Forgiven?

Alice…think. Stay on track. A boy…

I started to revisit my last memory. The moment before my sudden demise. I was talking to Jennifer, telling her how I got my acceptance. We were video chatting, not just on the phone. I missed her face. She was in another country and I was here. We haven't seen each other in a year, since she transferred to study abroad. We were talking…what was our conversation…

Forgiven….like those who have been forgiven from their sins? Since we all sin as humans. Opposite of sinner…a Forgiven?

Alice…

No matter how many times I scold myself I can never stay on track. Think…what was our conversation…

"Omg, Alice, look at that guy right behind you just following you."

"What? Oh that's just Jake. He graduates today, too. Never really spoke to him, though, he's kind of a loner. I had a few pre-law classes with him. What about him?"

"He looks like he's about to shoot up the place or something. How did he even get accepted into that school? Maybe he took those classes so he can represent himself one day! Ha-ha!"

"ah, Jen, that's not cool. He's probably very nice. I know he's smart, too. Just quiet."

"Alice, I really wish you weren't always so good. Let loose. Just look at him! Hell, he looks ridiculous and like he hasn't showered since freshman year."

I began to laugh nervously. She always made fun of me whenever I didn't join her on bullying someone. Maybe I should, just this once so she gets off my back. I really don't want to. But I also don't want to listen to her. I'm sure you're asking why I am friends with her. She saved my life once. And she has been beside me through every bad moment in my life. This is the only bad thing about her. I'll head straight to church and talk to my pastor, repent. Right after graduation.

"Yeah, I guess he does look kind of funny…maybe I should make friends with him so he can hire me one day!"

"Oh look at you, Alice. Omg just ew. He has criminal written all over him really"

"Your honor, sure my client looks a bit like a loser, and sure he killed…"

*CRASH*

"Alice….hey Alice are you ok? Alice answer me…"
