This is part six of the story of three friends who go through revelation. In part five Julie was introduced and part six is where she is given her last chance in life.
Julie lay on the floor on her belly not knowing what to do. Her arms were still zipped tied behind her back. Her head hurt and she knew that she had passed out. The alcohol must have had still been running through her, because she remembered everything.
Billy had hurt her pretty badly and it really hurt her to move. She could see his lifeless body lying sideways on the floor with a tree branch hanging out of him.
There were times when she went unconscious, but she soon would snap to. Then the night’s events would flash before her eyes. Tears would always fill up in her eyes. She didn’t want to give up, because she didn’t know what would happen to her.
She didn’t want to think about what Billy would have done to her. She knew that he had planned to rape her, didn’t want to know what would happen afterwards. Would he have killed me to keep it a secret? Hot tears reformed in her eyes and rolled down her face.
She didn’t know how she was going to get the help that she needed? She wanted to go home. She wished that she had never come to Billy’s house.
Julie tried to push the bad thoughts out of her head. She tried to move her hands, but the zip-ties were too tight. She tried to stand up with her feet still zip-tied together, but she figured out how to stand up.
She got to her knees and used the couch to push herself the rest of the way up. She got a sudden head rush, because Billy had hit her in the head pretty hard. She didn’t think that she would be able to stand up. When she got to her feet all the blood ran into her head, and then she fell face first to the floor.
“Have you had enough?” A man was standing over. “Are you ready forgiveness?”
“Yes,” Julie was barely able to say.
Julie felt the zip-ties loosen up from around her wrist and ankles. She didn’t feel light headed anymore and she was able to move. She turned over and seen the most wonderful looking man she had ever seen.
“Who are you?” Julie asked. She looked at him with amazement.
“I am the one who was sent to give you a second chance in life.” He squatted down and brushed the hair out of her face. “Your sins will be forgiven here today, but you can’t ever go back to your old ways.”
“What?” Julie thought the wonderful looking man was crazy. “Do you think that you’re God?”
“No,” the man said with a smile. “I’m just one of his angels.”
Julie couldn’t say a word as the man stood up. “Remember what I said to you. Your sins are forgiven and you will go to Heaven. You go back to your old ways and you go to Hell.”
A bright glow sudden around the man and a pair of white wings appeared. Julie only blinked once and the angel was gone. She lied on the floor and cried.
