KNOWING GIRL

A young man about 20 years old was walking towards the nearest bus stop. He just got home from work. Suddenly a little girl who was walking with her mother grabbed his hand as he was about to board the bus that had just arrived.

"Brother, will you follow my advice?" asked the little girl.

"What's wrong little girl?"

"Don't take this bus. Just take the next one."

"Why? I'm so tired."

"I-I, never mind bro, believe what I say. Just wait here first. I beg you..."

Dae Ho, the name of the young man, finally obeyed the little girl. He sat back down. However, just as he sat down, he suddenly heard an explosion. The bus he was about to ride on caught fire. The atmosphere instantly became lively. Several people immediately called the police and the fire department. Dae Ho looked at the little girl questioningly. How come, can that little girl see the future?

"Excuse me, aunty, may I ask a question?" he said to the little girl's mother. As if knowing what Dae Ho was thinking, the little girl's mother just smiled.

"Hyun Jae can see the shadow of death. Believe it or not. But, you've seen it yourself, right."

Dae Ho nodded. "Thank you," he said sincerely. Meanwhile Hyun Jae stares at the crowd of people trying to put out the fire. Among the crowd she saw several grim reapers dressed in black picking up one by one the souls that had just separated from their bodies. Except for one, He is looking at Hyun Jae with a slightly annoyed look.

"You should not interfere in the destiny of human life," said the figure to Hyun Jae. The little girl just shrugged her shoulders. She didn't want to answer the death angel's words. She doesn't want people to notice her if She talks to herself. Perhaps, her mother was used to seeing her communicate with invisible creatures. However, other people will definitely think her crazy if they see her talking to herself.

Not long after, the figures in black disappeared along with the souls that had just been separated from their bodies. They will surely take him to heaven's door. Some will definitely undergo reincarnation soon. And partly, if they have bad karma they will have to face the court of the heavenly king first.

"What happened to you 888?" The angel of death who was called 888 turned his head.

"You see that little girl sitting with her mother?"

"Yes, I saw her."

"She can see us clearly."

"Only one out of hundreds of thousands of people who are bestowed has such an ability. You don't need to think about it. Never mind, let's just take these souls with us. We have to serve tea first so they can forget their present life and be reincarnated with good"

"Okay, let's go."

At the foot of a small hill, in a place invisible to the naked eye was a small house. The souls were brought into the house. One by one they were treated to a cup of black tea. After drinking it they will be led through the door on the right. The door led straight to the next stop. Where they will soon be reincarnated or reborn. While the other souls will be brought to the door on the left. Because bad karma makes them have to face the heavenly king and the heavenly court first. "Hey, 888 you and 444 must accompany these 2 souls to the god," said a bearded grim reaper. 888 just nodded, and immediately took the soul in question. For a moment the soul stared intently at 888.

"General Ming..." murmured the soul. 888 frowned.

"Who are you calling that General Ming's nickname?. Your brain needs to be washed, to the point that You must first face the king of heaven and the gatekeeper of hell."

Through the existing door, 888 and 444 accompany 2 souls named Ara and Kang Heon. After passing through the door they were greeted by the heavenly gatekeeper who immediately took over the two souls brought by 888 and 444.

"Today is very tiring. I want to get some rest. I'm sure tomorrow we will have a lot of work to do," said 888.

"Yes, that's right. It's very tiring."

After all was done, they came out of the small house. Then each unwrapped a round pin on their chest. In fact, they appear no different from ordinary humans. 888 is known as Kim Young Jo and 444 is known as Chin Hae. Without those pins, they would look like normal humans. Not an angel of death. They even rented apartments like normal humans. However, of course their place of residence will change. People would suspect if you lived for decades, but you never age like a normal human. Arriving at Apartment 888, he lay down on his soft mattress. His mind wandered all over the place. It has been hundreds of years since he has become an angel of death. However, this is the first time he can be seen by ordinary humans in his form as an angel of death. Yes, he remembered the little girl at the bus stop earlier.

For some reason the look in the little girl's eyes made his heart hurt so much. Angels of death are sinful souls who have to pay for their past karma by becoming a grim reaper. They cannot be reincarnated until the celestial king decides that they are done with their duties.

Their memories of being human will be erased. They won't have any memories. However, they could see the memories of other people in their previous lives, if they came into contact with humans. 888 have seen someone's past life. In the past that person was a famous healer. Because of his good karma in his current life, he also becomes a doctor who saves people. Humans will have 7 rebirths. In each life, he will pay the karma in the previous life.

"Then, what was my previous life like, so that the heavenly king decided to give the job as a grim reaper instead of allowing reincarnation like the others. Was my sin too big in the previous life?"888 muttered.
