Call Me "James"
Every hour, billions of grief and despair are delivered to the universe. The uncountable ungratefulness of the prosperous, the hopelessness of those whose prayers are never answered, the grief of loneliness from those who are sick of living in their own bodies. The sky shifted from blue to black, clouds whose color were white to gray, from the sun until the moon. They all testified to the owner of the universe about the complaints and despair of humans under their auspices, eavesdropping on every weep from the voiceless one until the one that was screaming over the sound of thunder. Among these people Some are begging God to just take their lives away, some waited for the death angel to come and live miserably, and some are brave enough to defy by doing it themselves.
James is one of them, he feels like a hero who has saved himself from his cowardice to move on. Without him knowing, destiny is the strongest energy in the world, a force that creates millions of injustices. He neither understood anything about death nor the life after it. James wandered solely in the realm of spirit finding his way home to heaven. A place he’s been dreaming about while he was alive. Instead, he’s facing the reality of how anyone who dares to step over destiny, will not be able to easily return to the heavens. Suicide not only is it the most cowardly way to give up but also a selfish option for abandoning the pain of those who are left behind. The only option he has is either to stay in the realm of spirit Eternally or commit himself to a deadly covenant with the universe and James chose the 2nd option cluelessly.
He starts his journey in the human world looking for someone who wants to accomplish the mission of bringing him back to heaven to achieve an everlasting peacefulness.
