Till death do us part’

It was three o'clock in the morning and I couldn't get to sleep. The memory of my sweet Laura was driving me crazy, we had just buried her that morning. I still couldn't believe that all this was real.

Suddenly, I heard noises in the living room. As I got closer, I saw our wedding video playing on the television.

The video started to glitch right at the line ‘Till death do you part’. With tears in my eyes, I took the cassette out and headed back to my room.

But then, the grand piano started to play by itself, playing the same melody she used to play. Startled, I approached it and felt something rise from the chair. An icy face approached me and kissed me.

That night, and every night thereafter, the video would miss the same phrase and the piano would play Laura's music. Until one night, I decided to confront him. ‘Who are you and what do you want from me,’ I asked. A whispering voice answered me: ‘Till death do us part’.

I felt cold hands around my neck. She was calling me. I couldn't resist any longer. I went down to the basement, took a rope and tied it around my neck. But when I was about to throw the chair away, I felt her cold lips on mine. ‘Come with me,’ she whispered.

And so, I let myself be carried away by her eternal love, leaving this world to join her in eternity.
