Destiny Bell Part 4

Death Contract (SELF PUBLISHED)

Chapter 48

"This is beautiful!" I was beyond delighted while showing our pictures one by one. Saint was busy driving home. He just turned to me a little and then smiled for a moment. "But maybe it would be better if your real face and my real face were here. There, my smile suddenly disappeared, and I felt a little sad. I knew that I had not escaped the Saint's sight, but I still chose to smile. "It's okay, at least we know we're together here. That's the most important thing.

Earlier, we also bought new clothes. Saint does not want to wear Albus' clothes anymore; he wants black clothes. And I let him.

"Did you have fun with me?" That question about Saint turned my gaze back to him.

"What do you mean?"

"Gavin told me that I needed to make you happy today because that is my job as your boyfriend. You are laughing, so I think I made you happy. However, Gavin also said that human emotions are too complicated. You smile even though you are sad. That's why I'm asking you now if you're really happy. " When he said that, it was as if something touched my heart. It gives me the same rush that Saint did.There, my smile widened.

"See my eyes, babe?" He turned to me slightly before nodding. It was fast enough because he looked back at the road again. "This means I'm happy. Human lips can smile at everyone, but the eyes can't. Lips can fake happiness, but the eyes can't. Lips can lie, but eyes can't. Understand? " He smiled in response and nodded slightly. I'm happy because he understands me. I'm glad because even though I know he does not fully understand, he tries to understand me. He does everything to make me happy. He's by my side, although I know he has a lot to take care of today. Every day they need to fetch a soul, but Saint is here next to me and makes me happy, even just for today. That is the most important and valuable thing I will treasure.

To my great delight, I could not help but slightly kiss Saint's cheek. He turned to me in surprise. However, I just smiled at him as a sign of tenderness.

"Silly. " That was our last conversation before I decided to just play the car stereo and play a song. It was Iris by the Goo Goo Dolls. Saint just sat there and listened to me as I sang along.

When we got out of the car, Saint immediately approached me to hold my hand. We were no longer surprised to see the light in every corner of the house. I knew very well that Gavin was inside. He is the only Grim Reaper who can't stand the darkness. For almost a week, Saint and Gavin had been living together in Wesley's mansion. Something Saint despises, but he can't do anything about it.

When we entered, Gavin immediately appeared. I was also not surprised to see that he was with three other grim reapers, with no emotion looking at me. They were sitting on the sofa while Gavin was standing in front of them.

"Hey! You're already here. " The smiling Gavin approached us quickly. That's why I smiled back. But when he finally got close to me there, I lost my smile. Especially when I hear the strange sound of the bell.

At that moment, I seemed to be shoved. I don't know if Saint felt that or what, but my heart pounded. My swallowing became continuous and my whole body went cold.

Where did that come from? Why does the bell ring again?

I did not take my eyes off Gavin as I moved my hand to reach the pocket of my pans where the sound was coming from and where I had placed the red bell the old man had given me earlier. But I got colder when I felt two bells inside my pocket.

I have an idea of what is going on, but I don't seem to want to know that. However, I dared to pick up the bell and see which one was ringing there. And I almost closed my eyes when I saw that black bell.

"Guardian of Soul, why are you staring at your hand?"I heard traces of astonishment at Gavin's question. It was only then that I woke up and immediately turned to him. Gavin's face was alarmed, and so was Saint's.

Wait, does that mean I'm the only one who sees and hears the bells ringing?

I swallowed before I smiled and simply put it back in my pocket. Take a deep breath before laughing slightly.

"Nothing, it just hurts a bit." I still smile so that they do not worry, even though the truth is that I want to cry. I am not a fool to misunderstand the ringing of the black bell. It looks like Gavin is assigned to reap me an hour before my death. And I can feel it getting closer.

As a result, my other hand gripped Saint a little too tightly. I want to feel him more now. I want to touch him completely. I want to be closer to him.

"Are you okay?" Saint asked as I smiled.

"Yuck! PDA! " Gavin complained.

"Fuck you, Gavin!"

"That's bad for Saint. You can't fuck me. I'm not gay, bro. " Gavin seemed to tease Saint, but was stoned in position when Saint threw him his fireball.

"Shut the fuck up, Gavin, or I'll burn you to hell!"

"Fine! Fine! Sorry. " Gavin nodded.

"By the way, who the fuck are they? This is not your house, Gavin! " Saint shouted.

"Oh, this is not my house? I thought it was my house too." This time, it was Gavin's Pandora hat that caught fire.He quickly removed it and froze the fire.

"Fuck you, Saint!"

"I'm asking you politely, fucker, who are they?" Saint, who was tired, inquired.I simply watched them. If this happened some other time, I would have laughed, but my delighted mood was quickly changed by the ringing of the black bell.

But how in the hell did it come to me? That black bell I left at the old man's a while ago.

"Recruits!" Gavin's joyous statement A series of questions occupied my mind as I tried to keep up with their conversation. I'm also nervous and have started to overthink. I can no longer control or hold onto what I think might happen.

Is the world really working like this? Is there sadness next when you are so happy? Can't this world be full of happiness only?

In such cases, back then, Dad Arman was the only one who calmed me down. He is the one who I can tell you everything about, but this time he is not here. Whom am I going to approach? Whom am I going to tell?

I don't want to tell Saint because he will definitely burn Gavin forever. The fire Saint has is not adequate. It can burn people or even a grim reaper like Gavin. That was what Gavin told me.

"Oh my god!" I just screamed when I felt Saint suddenly lift me. It was there that I returned to reality and turned to them.

"Finish what you are going to do here quickly, Gavin, then leave. You are not welcome here. " He shouted before going upstairs. I was still in shock at what he suddenly did and did nothing but wrap my hand around his neck so it would not fall.

He only put me down when we got to the room. For reasons I do not understand, he made me sit on the bed and he took off my shoes. He sat on the floor and gently removed my socks. I do not know why I don't have the strength to stop him. I just let him be and stared intently.

"I can no longer read what's on your mind, Babe." I was stunned by what he said. "I haven't heard your thoughts since you disappeared earlier." He confessed before he looked up at me. At that point, I knew on my own that it was because of the old fortune-teller at the amusement park bells. "Did something happen?" He asked me gently, but I couldn't answer him.

"No Saint," I said, unable to look at him any longer.However, I thought that he would still insist on asking me, but I was wrong, because instead of insisting, he suddenly hugged me. Something that shocked me

"I love you." That Saint's whisper caused me to shed tears.

At that point, I knew in myself that I was scared. I'm afraid of dying and leaving Saint alone because I adore him.

Is there a way for me to stay in the world with him?

Because of that, the people were angry with the sorcerer, so they rushed to the sorcerer. They burned down his house, which further aggravated the witch's anger. Before the sorcerer died, he swore that people would never know the person destined for them and the person who would kill their lives.

The story of Destiny Bell only teaches children not to let themselves react in a bad way when oppressed by the majority. It contains the testimony of the biblical word: do not repay evil with evil or insult with insult. On the contrary, repay evil with blessing, because to this you were called, so that you may inherit a blessing. NIV (1 Peter 3:9)

But to me, the story has a different meaning. The story just forces me to point out that everyone has a destiny. Either fated or ill-fated. That means you can't meet someone for no reason. They all came for a reason. Either they are a blessing or a lesson.
