Chapter 1755: Choices

?

Azief wanted to know if he is here, would that woman make a different choice? Would his presence changed her choice.

Azief had seen this woman Carol squandered all the chances given to her.

And even then, he wanted to give her another chance to turn around.

Is it because he suddenly become kind and forgiving?

No....it is because he also seen her life.

He knows it is not easy.

Those who did not live that life could not understand.

But he had seen it.

If only she could take at least one responsibility for the things she had done, then there is still hope. And that is what his presence meant

Hope.

As much as he hated this woman, he wanted to have hope that this woman could turn around. And because she is mortal. And as a mortal, there is only so much she could see. And they require more chances. But of course, even chances has its limit

And this would be the last chance he would give her.

That she at this time, at this juncture in her life, the most important choice that she would make would be the right choice

He hoped for that.

In the car, Carol took a moment to understand what she had done. She saw a man dressed in black robe, looking at her.

Just the sight of him, makes her feel creepy.

He seems to be just watching her.

But she did not have the time to think about this strange man.

Instead, she got out of the car and under the flickering lamp light, the heavy rain, she could see a young girl, choking on her own blood, her hands and feet are sprawled in different direction.

But she could see that the child is still breathing.

There is still a breath.

She looks at that man in black robe.

He did not do anything. Instead, he is just watching her. Like he wanted to see what she would do.

For a moment, she does not know whether what she sees is real or the man is just her imagination.

Azief look at her because he was surprised that this time she got out of the car. But would she do anything now?

Azief waits.

Wait to see what kind of choice would she make now?

She could call an ambulance.

She could put the child on the back or her car and drove her to the hospital

The woman look at the child and it is clear from her expression that she is in a dilemma.

If she called an ambulance, if she sent the child to hospital, if she performs first aid, all of this would expose her.

She drink and drive and even hit a child. One could not even imagine how many years she would get for that.

Would she choose to the right thing?

Carol look at the blood coming out of that child mouth, pooling around her neck, and when it flows down to the road, the rain washed away the blood.

The child cough and the bones cracks.

her eyes is disoriented.

She took a moment to make a choice and she disappointed Azief again.

She looks at him and then she enters her car, close the door and ride away. Her car passes him by as she looks at him

Azief look at this and shakes his head

"Good people should be rewarded and evil people should be punished. This world has given you all the chance for you to turn back. And I even show myself, to give you a motivation to do the right thing. At least once in your life... you could make this a turning point"

Azief knows that the woman, as hopeless as she is....she never kill people.

She does all kinds of bad thing, but she never kill people.

And Azief knows she did not intend to kill the child.

She lives a life of abandon and tonight, her habit leads to do the one thing she never had done before.

There was still a chance.

A chance to turn it all around.

To repent at this moment.

Even if she were to be arrested afterwards, this world, the world that she lives in, in the time she is now, she would have the chance to atone.

It would not save her in this material world. But her soul would be saved. And this intangible thing does exist.

Where it goes however is still something that Azief doesn't know. But he knows that it existed. He had seen it, feel it.

If she were in the ancient past, blood will be repaid with blood. And that is probably the most

fairest way

But in her time, she would spend her life in jail. At least she could use that time to atone all the sins she had done

If she could change her mind, she could change her heart. But.....

Azief could see that if she choose not to run away, then she could still be saved. But if she runs away,...only the first time is hard.

Then the next time, it would be easier for her to kill people.

Because the human mind could always rationalise itself after a certain line has been crossed

What Azief wanted to save was her soul. The moment she chooses this choice, there is a stain of darkness in her heart

This kind of darkness is hard to remove. It is because she knew that it is wrong. But she did it

anyway.

And even though it did not affect any physical thing, and she did not know what change about

her, Azief could see it

Now, it come to this

Pat! Pat! The sound of the ran pelting the cold hard tar ground is like a rhythmic sound of

death.

The children in the school run toward the entrance. Some of them are to petrified to move. But

one of them is very brave.

There is tears on his eyes and as he runs he stumbles

The ground is slippery and his shoes flies to the side.

His knees are scraped.

But he got up and in his pain run pass the school entrance and rush toward the little girl.

"Risa" he shouted.

But now that he is in front of her, he did not dare to take that next step.

Not many does.

After all, she is bleeding from her mouth and there is wounds all over, her face is messed up.

There is scars and deep wounds and from these deep wounds, there is blood gushing out, her face has all these lines that shows how deep the scratching from the tar ground. Even normal people who never see the result of an eerie car crash should not hold such fear, what more a child in elementary school?

The road is cold, the light is flickering, the moon blocked by the dark clouds.

Tonight, her destiny is to die young, alone, taking her last breath on this cold dark road.

Without anyone beside her.

That......that was supposed to be her destiny.

But, Azief appearance changes a lot of things.

Maybe from the moment Azief decided to intervene, the operation of this world has quickly

changed.

No one else could sense this but Azief senses this.

Tonight, this boy should not be able to see this.

Instead, he probably would walk in different direction and would not see this event playing

out the way it is.

At this time Azief also understood something. It is not that he did not see this group of kids before. It is just that at that time, this group of kids never did go on this road.

They probably know the death of this young girl later.

Azief closes his eyes for a seconds and then he calculated something and then opening back

his eyes he smiles

"Like I expected. Certain things had change"

A small action by him changes the direction of fate and destiny. Because this world is not a high-level world, a small action by an external force, an

otherworldly force created such a big ripple in the entire time and space of this world.

It does not have magic.

Its fate and destiny is not as magical so when something otherworldly and mystical as Azief

appears in this world, it created a monstrous change in this world operation of laws and rules.

And the boy who should go out of school from the other exit, instead chooses to come out

from the entrance.

The changing of path, is the result of the ripple that Azief had created

Azief did not look much at what happens but from what he could see, just like he had

expected, the boy had an argument.

Marrissa, this young girl must be part of this group of young kids. An argument broke out between them and Marrissa left the school in a hurry because of this argument.

She left the school in a hurry, trying to cross the road, and then that woman who is drunk,

drives her car and kill this young girl

Marissa left and die in front of the entrance of the school

As for this boy and his group of friend, they go out of another entrance. That is how it should

be

Hence, Marrissa would die alone.

No one beside her as she takes her last breath.

Tonight, no one knows what prompted this young boy to suddenly goes out from the front

entrance. And his group follows him.

And now, it reach to this point
