Chapter Four
Purgatory"I heard that your girlfriend got transferred again," Irfan says to you, one eyebrow raised.
He can't resist, you're the closest thing that he's had to a friend in years. He says that the previous guy had almost no sense of humour.
You asked him what happened to the previous guy.
"Don't know really… must have done his quota of good deeds or whatever, they let him go." Irfan tells you. "Either that… or he just knew too much about them and managed to buy his way out."
And so it is possible to escape from this place, from this situation. No matter how difficult, it is possible…
"Don't hope for too much," Irfan advises you, "They need us for their dirty work, don't think that they'll let go of you that easily."
But you remember that you had once advised Naina that there is hope until the last breath… and you're not able to give up all that easily on old habits.
Maybe… one day… you could return too.
But people don't come back from the dead that easily.
