3 Reborn

Everything had become black when a bullet was fired.

I felt myself slowly being consumed by this warm darkness.

So that's how it feels to die. It's sure is different from how I imagined it. I thought it will be painful and slow, but everything seemed to finish way to quickly. I wonder did my heart help? Will mother survive? How are my beloved students?

Now that I think about it, my decision was way to rush. If the person is destined to die, he will die. I should've just accepted it and moved on, but I could not. The most important person in my life, is my mother that raised me and my siblings along. Our father was a police officer and on one of his shifts he got shot by a bandit and died. I was 5-year-old at that time. Since then many years passed by. I will truly miss all of them.

Mom I'm sorry for leaving ahead of you.

Elder brother, please take good care of mother.

Younger brother and sister, I'm sorry for being such a selfish being.

It all ended.

'Wait a minute. If it all ended, than how am I thinking? Why can I feel a comfortable warm senseition.'

Maybe they missed? They did say that if they miss, they will not try again. Did they really miss? Then why does nothing hurt? Am I under anesthetics?

I tried to move and the moment I did, the unbearable pain filled my consciousness. Something was pressing very hard on me. I breathed in some air to cope with pain; however, it only made it worse. Choking pain was tearing apart my chest and not being able to with stand it anymore, I screamed at the top of my lungs.

Suddenly, all pressure was removed but the pain in my chest remained unchanged. I heard an unfamiliar voice from above, but when I looked up, I could see nothing. Everything was very blurry.

Everything else felt like a dream. I was lifted up by someone's gentle hands and placed in warm liquid. Slowly all of the pain had vanished, as if it was washed away by strong waves. I a lifted again and carried and place into someones else's hands.

Because of the pain I didn't notice previously, but how is this certain someone manages to carry me, a grown up woman with such ease?

While I was engrossed in those thoughts, my ears caught another, unfamiliar but mesmerising voice that seemed to be directed at me.

I tried to concentrate my vision as much as I possibly could and saw a peerless beauty in front of my eyes. Her long blond, with a tint of gold hair rimmed her alabaster face. Lavender, deep eyes were framed by long light eyelashes and soft blush on her face served as a cherry on top of this exemplary beauty. But who is she? Why does her gaze seems to be overflowing with affection and tears?

Just as I started to get confused, a soft voice rang inside of my head

"Do not worry. Congratulations, you were successfully reborn. Welcome, as a gift let me enable you to understand this worlds language!"

Reborn, this world's.... huh? Somehow even though I tried to connect the dots, I could not since my consciousness was slowly escaping my grip.

Just as i was about to fall asleep, I heard that woman's crystal clear voice again.

" Sleep my dear, Mirta. Sleep."
