Roger's POV.
Mark and I held each other tightly as we stood over the hospital bed in the early hours of the morning and watched our son's body twitch and turn on the bed. With our free hands, we gripped his arm tightly, hoping for some kind of response from him.
"I'm not sure if this isa good sign or not," said Dr. Hitch, who just entered the room and stood by our side. "Either he's actually gonna wake up, or this is just a false alarm where he's gonna go unconscious again."
I held Mark close and kissed his forehead as Collins rubbed his arm, and we waited for Maureen, Joanne and Leana to come. Dear God, I hope he comes back to us. I can't stand any more of this…...
Josh's POV.
I still couldn't decide whether to stay in Heaven or go back to Earth. I couldn't stand to leave Angel behind. Unless……
"Say, Angel?" I asked her tentatively. "If I went back down to Earth, do you think you could come with me?"
Angel smiled sadly at me. "Oh my sweet darling, I wish I could but I can't. When a person dies an earthly death, they cannot come back to life. I so badly wanna come back down to Earth to be with Collins and all of you, but I can't it'll disrupt the natural order of the universe. I'm so sorry honey," she mumbled and pulled me into a tight hug.
I hugged her back and buried my face into her shoulder. "But I'm gonna be away from you again. How can I live like that?"
Angel then pulled away from me, removed a giant fake-sapphire ring from her finger and pressed it into my hand. "Here," she said. "Take this from me and keep it. That way, whenever you look at it, you'll know that I'll always be with you." She smiled at me through her tears. I smiled right back and hugged her again.
"Thank you so much," I whispered into her hair. "I love you Angel."
"I love you too, honey," she whispered back. "Say hello to everyone from me please. Especially Collins."
"I will, definitely." I pulled away reluctantly from her embrace and looked at her. "Goodbye, Angel."
"Goodbye Joshy," said Angel, smiling sadly. We waved at each other one last time, and then taking in a deep breath, I clutched the plastic ring tightly in my hand and entered the spiritual doorway, where I suddenly got consumed by a blinding white light, and I could feel myself falling, falling, falling…….
Hmmmmmm, wonder what happens to Joshy now? –giggles-
