Nick POV
I looked up at god's face and saw a shimmering light beyond his head. I watched the angels all alinged smiling, but then the angels vanished. the shimmering light blew away. No silk banisters, or badazzling lights. Just me and God in the same room alone.
"Under one condition" God said, his face turning grim, instead of a meaningfull smile. Suddenly, I felt on the verge of hyperventilating, everything dissapeard. There was no where to escape. I wanted to be alive breathing Miley's air. I didn't need some stupid puszle, god wanted me to figure out! I tried responding, but my breathe was caught in my throat. I tried responding, but I couldn't properly.I should have figured this was coming. What did I do to ever even have the chance to enter haven? I didn't deserve to even be granted the opportunity.
"Your right" God spoke. My body froze, God was all powerful, could he read my inner thoughts?
"Yes I can read your thoughts" God continued. " What did you do Nicholas? Did you pray to me? Or ask to be forgiven of your sins? Did you go to church, or quite fankly were you even a Christin? Were you a good person? Overall, just beliving in me would be enough, did you?" His words stung like knifes, and I crwled down on to my knees, him reminding me of the way my dad would yell at me when he was still alive. I wanted the Golden Gates, and to ask dad how has he been, I want all the bread and wine I can inhance, but most of all I wanted to be the person Miley could depend on to pray too. Sudennly a whoosh of wind flew through me, and I was able to speak again.
"How?" I asked the question that had been ringing through my head since his phrase ' Uder one condition'. I tileted my head upwards quickly to find God debating, does God debate?
"When the time is right" God replied, mimicking an expression, similar to the one on my face. What did that mean? How was I supposed to agree to his comprimise if all he did was tell me 'When the time is right'! Then he glided his wrinkled hand across the filterd air, and there was an image, of Miley.
"Right now, let's just observe" God said.
