"Oh no! It's raining, run!" Aviana's voice screeched as the evening showered upon Chris and her with the scintillating, violent rain. The garden floor was flooded with water and tiny flowers floated on the ripples. Rustling noises boomed as the trees dashed with each other. It was thundering and lightning. But Chris did not care about any of that. His mind was occupied by his beloved, in front of him.


Aviana was horrified by the weather right now. She knew the real reason behind it and felt utmost guilt.

God was angry with her.

"No, stay"


Chris drags her towards one of the benches. They sat down, their clothes wringing wet.

They sat in silence, gazing in each other's eyes. This was the moment. They have been friends since childhood but now they are going to become more.


Chris seizes the opportunity and leans down, bringing his lips closer to hers.

Aviana gulps and shivers.

"I can't" Aviana whispers.

"I know you can" Chris said, sensing her nervousness.

"Chris trust me, this won't end well! "

"Don't you love me? "

"I do"

"Then what's the problem? "

"I can't tell you. It's an uncanny reason"


"Go ahead, tell me" He took her palm in his hands.

Aviana hesitated. She knew Chris since they were seven years old. She shared all her thoughts and feelings with him. She never wanted to love because she knew it would cost someone his life. Unknowingly, the opposite happened with Chris.


"I.....I'm c-cursed"

"What? " He asked in confusion.

"If I kiss you, you'll die"


Aviana's face was covered with sheer horror. She was certain that he wouldn't believe her. She accidentally told this once to her friend Lily, a few years back and she made fun of her. It wasn't something normal. And it's impossible that Chris would accept that reason.


Chris listened to her intently.

"I got it due to my mother. I was cursed because of her bad deeds. I can't help it. It's weird but I assure you it's the truth. I'm not lying. " She continued, her voice slashing with the rain.

Chris gave her a heartwarming smile.


"I believe you "

Aviana's eyebrows furrowed as she heard him. He believed her?

"You believe me? "

"Of course," He said.

"Uhh....what if I am joking? And don't you find it weird that you will actually die if I kiss you? " She asked.


"No. I love you and I believe everything you say. I don't find it weird. I'm going to support you no matter how grotesque it sounds! "

His words pierced Aviana's heart. Today she found out the amount of love he has for her. He truly loves her.

Still, they can't be with each other.

He again leans down, advancing towards her lips.

This cannot happen!


"But—"

"Shhh........ "

With that, he brushed his lips against hers. They both closed their eyes and took in the beautiful feeling. Aviana forgot about almost everything.

After a couple of seconds, Aviana regained her senses and broke the kiss quickly. She loved Chris. She would never let anything happen to him.


They opened their eyes gradually and looked around. They weren't in the garden. The thundering and the storm was replaced with bright light and hush silence. They were teleported to another garden filled with all sorts of colourful flora with lush green trees. The bright light added the beauty to it. The serene aura would lure anyone to deep sleep.


It was heaven.

God forgave her. It had been a long time since he saw two people so deeply in love. That kind was supposed to be free to live. That kind was so special that can even change the Almighty's heart. The power of true love made him change his heart. He defaced the curse upon her.

He now wanted them to stay with each other and cherish their love forever. And the safest place was heaven.
