The bird's twitting was the only thing heard in the quiet cemetery of the city. Several people were standing next to the wooden coffin on which were flowers, thus covering the name of the deceased written on it. Somewhere near the end of the coffin stood a woman of blonde hair, dressed in a black suit, all the time hiding a smile behind fake blonde strands. "Ha ... fools ... I wonder what they've put in this coffin to look like there is a real person inside of it... What did they think when they realized that the body is gone? Ah, it's better this way. It's easier to take revenge when nobody is bothering you ... "
The younger man approached her. "You knew Keila?" - he asked. "Yes, that's my ... cousin. My aunt's daughter."- she said. "My name is Lex." "I'm Deyla." Lex: "You have similar names." Deyla: "We were born on the same day." Lex: "What a coincidence!" Deyla: "Yes, it's just incredible. Aunt wanted to give us similar names." Lex (after a break): "Are you up for coffee?" Deyla: "Sure, why not. (thought) You're one of them anyway ..."
Café: Lex: "How come Keila didn't tell us she has a sister?" Deyla: "Keila is silent, I think, she was silent ... Unfortunately, she was almost always right." Lex: "Not always. A minute before her death she killed our associate for no reason! The man was always with us and he didn't want to do anything to us! " Deyla (thought):" That's what you think. (out loud) She must have known something you haven't. " Lex: "She probably lost her mind. Anyway, she shot at her own heart." Deyla (with a raised tone): "Maybe she felt guilty? Or she panicked? How do you know if she lost her mind? " Lex: "Don't misunderstand me, Keila was very dear to me, even more dear than you think. But I still can't figure out why she killed our associate and herself." Deyla: "They were around her. " Lex: "Who?" Deyla: "His people." Lex: "You mean ours?" Deyla: "No, his." Lex: "How do you know when you weren't there?" Deyla stopped for a moment. Avoiding to speak further, she only quietly said, "I assume." Anything else would only lead her to a hopeless situation.
Lex gave her a business card and said, "This is my phone number, you can call me whenever you need something." Deyla: "It's nice to know." Lex: "On what number can I call you?" Deyla (writing on paper): "Here,I hope we'll see again soon." Lex: "Tomorrow, in this coffee shop?" Deyla: "In the park. I like to be outdoors." Lex: "Deal. Noon, park. See ya tomorrow." Deyla: "OK."
On the way home, Deyla felt strange. She thought: "It's for sure because of this coffee ... My organism no longer uses food and water. I need to be more careful, no food, no water, no direct contact. No going out without makeup , otherwise everyone will get shocked with the scenery of my pale skin. Even I almost fainted when I saw what I look like ... "
In the evening she went outside alone, just like the night before. She went to Keila's secret headquarters. For taking fingerprints and scanning pupils there was no problems at the entrance- Deyla passed it with ease. She sat in front of Keila's desk and turned on the computer, and then transferred all the information to her flash cards she brought from the house. At the end she deleted all the information from the computer so the others wouldn't get to them and use them for the wrong purpose.
In the morning, Lex was in the headquarters and asked one of them, Andreas, whether he broke the code for Keila's computer,on which he said it's very close. During the next hour the code was broken, but there was no data. They were very suspicious because Keila was the only one who knew the code ...
Deyla and Lex were in the park. Lex (going to catch Deyla by the hand): "I miss Keila so much ... no matter what, life goes on. I want to get to know you better." Deyla (puts hand in the pocket): "Sounds lovely. And in what sense to know me better?" Lex: "It depends on you." Deyla (laughs): "Oh, come on, I am not for that kind of meeting." Lex: "Well, I don't even expect anything from you right now. All in time." Deyla: "You fall in love too quickly." Lex: " Your eyes... How are you having the same eyes as Keila?" Deyla: "Genetics." Lex: "Hazelnut ... I love the eyes of hazel color, they look divine ... Uh, I just totally lost myself ..." Deyla: "It's all right." Lex: "Let's go to one place." Deyla: "Where is that?" Lex: "It's a surprise!"
He took her to her house. Lex (showing her house): "You have a swimming pool here if you want to swim." Deyla (nervous): "I can't stand swimming." Lex: "Then let's go in." They went in and sat down on the couch, where Lex noticed that Deyla was wearing gloves. Lex: "It's hot here, why don't you take off the gloves?" Deyla: "... There is no need." Lex: "Let me do this for you... (starts to remove the gloves and stops for a moment) Why are your hands so cold?" They're cold as ice, and now it's April! I'll warm your hands. .. " Deyla (panic):" There is no need, really... It's too late, I have to hurry ... " Lex:" Are you okay? " Deyla: "Yes, I'm great! My circulation is a disaster all the time, it's a normal occurrence ..." Lex: "Maybe I'll visit you once ..." Deyla: "Okay, I'm in Keila's apartment, I'm in a hurry, I have to go, see ya! "
She came out quickly from Lex's house, she was afraid that he could insist with warming her hand, and she knew that her whole body was cold and that it could no longer get warm ...
Deyla went into the apartment. She looked at her reflection in the mirror that stood in the hallway. The face covered with makeup so much that she seemed to be a healthy young woman, although she knew she was no longer that. She didn't know what she was. On the wall was Keila's picture. Straight brown hair that fell over the shoulder, hazel eyes,natural blush in the cheeks and pink lips. Deyla wanted to look like that again without makeup. Keila was rarely applying make-up and rarely let her hair; she would always tie it in a tail or braid, and nobody would recognize her with her hair let down. Deyla... must hide what she is. She returned to her room. Keila's room, as if it was even more important. Near the bed, there was a bloody sweater with a hole in the upper part-the last trail of Keila's blood. The rest colored a small stream in the beautiful city park, where Keila's body stood until midnight on the day she died. Since then, no one has seen her corpse. They only found that she was dead and left her in the water, just like that. A week later the funeral was still held, and she knew that Keila was not inside of it ...
She took off her blonde wig and laid down on the bed ... She didn't fall asleep because she didn't need a sleep. She didn't eat because she didn't need food anymore. She needs only REVENGE.

(written on 16.10.2015)
That fateful day, Keila woke up in her bed covered with purple bedding. She took a black jacket, a white sweater and black trousers and her hair, as usual, was tied in the tail. Early, she set off to her task, had a gun and an electric shock.
Keila never killed anyone, but she feared that she would have to shoot one person today, whom only she knew as an enemy. His name was Grant and Keila was sure that he was a traitor, after all, she accidentally heard the conversation between him and another man explaining to him that, by agreement, he would retrieve data from the central computer and hand it over to them, which would give Grant the chance to return to their ranks and destroy his enemy who Keila's colleagues protect. In addition, said he would kill their people by handing them a bomb that should be activated when Grant was on safe distance. Keila knew that the only option was to kill him and save others' lives. She told Lex that Grant was a traitor but he just burst into laughter and said that it doesn't make sense. She also told others, but they didn't listen.
At the place of task, in a ground-floor building, they received instructions for the mission-it was necessary to examine whether the building was a secret headquarters of the enemy because they suspected it. Grant was not present in the mission, but sent several guards to cover the trail. Keila shot them with electric shocks and the others removed them from the building.
In front of the building was a city park, all illuminated with spring sunshine and full of green vegetation. The Grant arrived and the others gathered around him. Seeing that Grant was moving his hand to the pocket, that is, to activate the bomb, Keila fired three bullets in him. "What did you do?!!!"
"Grant, no!" "Keila, did you get crazy?" -was heard after the shot. Keila didn't think about Grant and what happened, because his people had already come to her. She panicked at that moment and pulled the trigger by mistake ... a bullet hit her heart, and then she fell into a stream from where they didn't even lift her up - they just forgotten her until the next day ... when her body was no longer there ...
Deyla worked on the data on the computer all the time, checking whether every part of the project on the flash card was there. During the day she was invited to dinner with Lex and another girl, so she left for about seven in the evening.
In the restaurant, Lex met her with Sheryl, Grant's sister. During the dinner they talked. Sheryl (seeing that Deyla doesn't eat): "Diet? It seems like you don't need it." Deyla: "Well ... cleansing the body . I want to detox the body. " Sheryl: "Oh, nice. Tell me a little about yourself, what do you like to do, do you have a hobby ..." Deyla: "I like to read books about zombies. (lie)" "Sheryl:" Well, who would said that such a gentle lady loves literature about fictional creatures, especially as such topics are full with violence." Deyla:" Oh, no! Zombies are peaceful - UNTIL YOU DON'T MAKE THEM ANGRY. They are not fictional, neither. Maybe here, in this room, there is some zombie who's hungry for revenge. " Sheryl (to Lex): "I think this girl is as crazy as her sister." Lex (Deyla): "You're joking, aren't you?" Deyla: "Whatever." Sheryl: "Do you like the technology?" Deyla: "Not really ... It took me three days to learn where to turn on the computer." Sheryl (laughs): "Then you're not like your sister, she was a genius for technology. (quiet) So there's no danger from you." Deyla: "How, please?" (naively looking at Sheril). "Sheril:" I was about to say, there is no danger that you will die as her ... "Deyla:" Oh, I can't die. I can't anymore. Maybe I can? Oh, my lord, I don't know! Will I die or revive again? EVEN I DON'T KNOW. "
Sheryl and Lex looked at her oddly, thinking again that Deyla had lost her mind. Deyla didn't even expected them to understand as she didn't understand neither. In any case, after this evening, she was somehow sure that Sheryl continued Grant's job.
Sheryl went to her house, and Deyla and Lex stood in front of the cafe near the restaurant. Lex: "Do you want some drink?" Deyla: "I can't, I have a lot of work tonight." Lex: "Strange, but I never asked you what you do." Deyla: "Maybe because you looked too much into my eyes." Lex (lowering his head): "You remind me of Keila. I miss her." Deyla (going down the street): "It's too late for that. She's dead and your regret is not going to bring her back."
That night, Deyla found where Sheryl kept her base and tried to sneak in, and in order to go unnoticed, she took a suit that others wore, finding it in a larder at the entrance of the headquarters. The meeting was in progress and Sheryl presented the plan: "Since our previous plans had failed, I had to think of a new plan. In order to place the bomb in their headquarters, we have to be one of them. My brother was very close, but that crazy girl killed him. And her sister is crazy, but she isn't a danger to us. So, I'll try to get there over Lex, but it won't be that easy. Felix, did you break their code for the main computer? "Felix:" No, like someone deleted all the information we need. " Sheryl: "The hell, how?!" Felix: "I think that a) someone else wants this information, b) someone knows about us. I'm afraid someone might know about us." Sheryl: "Tomorrow at this time I want to see you all here, we need to make a plan for further activities. Felix, did you keep everything in the folder?" Felix: "Yes, absolutely every detail so far." Sheryl: "In that case, the meeting is over."
Deyla hid and waited for everyone to leave. Up to four in the morning she sent the information from their folders to her e-mail and then went through the ventilation tunnel because the door was locked.
-
Early in the morning she went to Lex. Lex: "How do you get so early?" Deyla: "Sheryl wants to put a bomb in your headquarter." Lex (surprised): "What are you talking about? And how do you know about my headquarter?" Deyla: "I heard her in her headquarters last night." Lex (mockingly): "Maybe you dreamt all of that?" Deyla: "No! I am ... Keila." Lex (furious): "No, you are not, Keila is dead! You said that yourself last night." Deyla: "I lied, I'm Keila! I knew Grant wanted to kill you with a bomb in the park!" Lex: "I'm going to call the hospital, it seems that her death is very shocking to you, maybe they will give you some sedatives in the hospital ..." Deyla: "No, no, no! Do you want me now, in the middle of your yard, to take off my shirt and show you a bullet wound ?! " Lex: "Calm down, Deyla." Deyla: "Keila, my name is Keila!" Lex: "Come on, get in the house to calm down, please ... I'm nervous when I have nightmares as well, I understand you ..." Deyla (sighed): "You're not listening, you're really not listening."
Inside, Deyla removes the coat from herself. Lex (bringing her water): "You were joking about taking the shirt off, weren't you?" Deyla: "I weren't, I just don't know if you can stand the scenery." Lex: "I assume you have a nice body, why can't I stand the scenery of a beautiful girl?" Deyla: "I have a wound. A huge hole. I'm dead, do you get it?" Lex broke into laughter thinking that Deyla was joking with him and that all this was only black humor, but after a few moments he stopped ...
She stood in front of him, holding her shirt in her hands. Her body was bluish because of the lack of blood, and above the heart there was a huge wound of pale-pink color, since all the blood had disappeared from the body. The border between the makeup on the neck and the blue skin under was clearly visible. Lex shockingly asked, "Is ... that wound real?" Deyla nodded. Lex: "But ... does it mean that you really are Keila,that you didn't die that day? (smiled slightly)" Deyla: "I am Keila, but dead. I wanted to avenge you for leaving me in that park until midnight, but it doesn't matter now. "Lex:" How did you revive, for the name of the world?! That's impossible! " Deyla (now known as Keila): "Right at midnight, under the influence of a full moon, I got up from the water and went home. I don't understand how and how long this will last. As for Grant and Sheryl ... I have proof , it's in my computer. I found out their data last night and deleted data from our headquarters so they can't get our informations. "Lex:" So you deleted all the important informations? I'm calm now. I just don't understand why you shot at yourself. " Keila: "I panicked. I didn't even want to kill Grant, but you didn't believe that he was a traitor. Did you even see a bomb in his left pocket?" Lex (looking to the ground): "We didn't ... It's important that we buried him as a hero and you, our rescuer, left you to die..." Keila:" But it's still not too late to destroy them. "
Lex (sitting on the couch and looking at Keila): ,, You know, if I ignore that creepy wound on your body, you're hotter than I thought. " Keila (reddening covers the upper part of the body): "That wasn't the point. Wait, you thought I was hot?" Lex (approached): "Yes, I love your eyes too. I just think you are more beautiful as brunette than with that blonde wig. " Keila: "I don't know how much longer I will be here and so don't fall in love with me or something. (dressing up) Come to my apartment later to figure out how to destroy the opposing headquarters. This is very important as the lives of you and our clients are in question. "Lex:" In one PM? " Keila: "Agreed."
Later, they worked together on a computer. Lex: "What do you think they need from us?" Keila: "According to their data, they want to destroy us for some client we protect. Do you remember a Tony Tanderstorm ? " Lex: "Man holds a huge plantation of poppies." Keila: "Morphium. Must be something about morphium." Lex: "Are you saying we're protecting the narco-boss?" Keila: "Morphium is and it is not a drug- everything depends on what purpose it is used. It is used in the hospital to reduce pain, but it kills at higher doses." Lex: "Is there any more data- why they hate this man and why they want to destroy us?" Keila: "Hm ... they hate us because we are a competitive agency, and besides that we protect their enemy. And now they hate us and because I killed Grant. " Lex: "I would not call it murder, you saved us eight." Keila: "The guilt is guilt." Lex: "I think we have to go to Tony to see what this is about." Keila: "I agree."
In the evening they went to a huge house on the suburbs of the city, behind it were the big field with poppies and a tall fence hid what's inside from curious passers-by.
Tony took them to the house and told staff to give them any drink they wanted, but they both refused and immediately went for a conversation. Keila: "How were you related with Sheryl and Grant?" Tony: "They are my cousins ... but they are very greedy. They hate me because I became rich and accuse me of the death of their mother, who is probably killed by someone else. They bombed me several times, once my leg was almost amputated because the torched wheel felt on me! Several of my men died and so I hired you to keep me safe. I heard one girl killed Grant and then died too. I am very sorry for her. " Keila: "At least she have rescued you from Grant." Tony: "Hope she rest in peace." (Lex trembled, Keila put her hand on his shoulder) "Keila:" And all these poppy fields? Do they have something to do with your wealth or their attempt to kill you?" Tony:" Behind house I have a poppy processing factory in ... " Lex: "Morphium." Tony:" That's right. I'm getting it to hospitals, but I'm working illegal too. My cousins used to work with me, my father and my brother, but they poisoned them together one night and took half of my wealth. Now they want to take everything... Actually, Sheryl wants everything, that damn greedy stupid. " Lex: "Do you think we can solve this complicated family situation? We only protect important people, but I don't know if we can solve this ..." Keila: "Sheryl has a plan to destroy our headquarters, we have to react . " Lex: "It'll be hard, but we'll figure out something."
Lex was tired after visiting Tony and he went home to rest, and Keila went to Sheryl's headquarters as a spy to find out the situation. At one point, Felix saw and approached her. Felix: "I didn't see you before; who are you and what is your duty here? "Keila (putting herself together):" I'm Stacy, I'm new here and I have no duty yet ..." Felix:" I'll find you something, nobody can wander here like a lost sheep." Keila:" Well... about the plan for the attack ... when that's exactly? I heard that it will be soon. " Felix: "In three days we will destroy the headquarters of another agency" Keila: "What is the purpose of that?" Felix: "What do you mean?" Keila: "What do we get?" Felix: "Money, lots of money! Actually, you and other agents get some percentage when we destroy them! Then there will be no one to protect Tony, so we will take it all!" Keila: "Do you think Sheryl will share the money with you? Do you know that she killed two people for money? " Felix (nervously): "That's different, I'm her assistant! Young lady, don't interfere where you shouldn't." Keila: "I'm just advising you, usually the closest associates are the first to fall down." Keila moved away, leaving Felix thinking about what she just said ...
In the headquarters, Lex warns colleagues that Keila was right,that Grant was a traitor and now his sister wants to put a bomb in the headquarters, not mentioning that Keila is now an undead.
Only a few colleagues believed him while the others thought it was an absurd scenario- sheeh, destroying bodyguards to destroy the target, pure foolishness!
During this time, Keila went to one place- to the church. She had a strong feeling of guilt because of murder so she felt the need to confess. The high priest: "What sin did you commit, child?" Keila: "I killed. I didn't want to to do it, but nobody believed me, so I had to.He would kill my colleagues, I knew about his plan ..." Priest:" Could not it have been different? "Keila:" I don't know. Everything happened quickly and I didn't know what else can I do. I do repent for my sins, forgive me. I never killed anyone, regardless of how my agency protects more powerful people around. I'm regretting it. " Priest: "I think that God will forgive you." Keila: "And I hope so."
-
In the evening, Keila and Lex returned to his apartment and made an action to deal with Sheryl. Lex said that Sheryl had called him during the day and tried to convince him with to tell her where his headquarters was,which he refused to say. He made a deal with a colleague to make an ambush for her.
At the moment when Keila got up, she suddenly lost her strength and fell. Keila (weak): "Damn it!" Lex: "What's going on?" Keila: "I think I'm losing it ..." Lex (panic): "No, don't get lost now, I need you!" Keila: "It seems to me that I'm getting weaker and weaker each day ... I can barely keep up this form." Lex: "Damn, what can we do ?!" Keila: "We can't do anything, I'm already dead ... We need to hurry up with the mission while I still have the strength." Lex: "Okay, I'll call an urgent meeting tonight and tell them to prepare tomorrow for that mission. "
Keila masked again in Deyla to stay unnoticed. Others didn't even assume that it was actually Keila with a blonde wig. Sheryl was invited to appear in the same park in the afternoon, and by then the plan was ready. Sheryl told her people to be near when the Lex's team was with her to capture them, pull information where their headquarters is, throw the bomb into the headquarters and then to kill the prisoners. It was their plan and,to make sure, Sheryl took the armchair under the shirt and jacket. On the other hand, since Keila has already taken out the information that the opposing headquarters will use similar tactics as before, she told colleagues who were in the meeting to be ambushed while Lex and other colleagues were in the center of events. It's time.
Sheryl is coming alone and Felix and others are in the ambush. Keila and her colleagues are also in ambush, but they look at every step of Sheryl. She said: "I'm glad you called me this quick, a bit of a sudden, but nothing terrible." Lex: "These are colleagues from my headquarters." (showing on them) It's strange that you didn't bring anyone with you. " Sheryl: "No, I don't have the need to bring an escort. I trust you." Lex: "Okay. In that case, I want to ask you to stop seeking Tony's wealth." Sheryl (pretends to be surprised): "How do you get the idea that I want his wealth?" Lex: "We know about your plan." Sheryl: "What plan?" Lex: "To destroy us and take his money, house and business." Lex knew that Sheryl would be provoked to take everything in her hands and to attack the first, which was perfect for a Keila and the others.
However, the plan gone in the other direction- when Sheryl gave a secret sign only Felix came out of the ambush without weapon in his hands.Sheryl (furious): "Where are the rest? !!!" Felix: "I told them to go . " Sheryl: "Why, fool?" Felix: "Because I'm the boss from now on." Sheryl: "Don't act stupid, I'm the head of this headquarters and you all listen to me! What's wrong with you?" Felix: "I realized you were too greedy. Will you change?" Sheryl: "What a change, are you crazy?" Felix: "Sorry."
After the apology, a gunshot was heard - Felix shot at Sheryl! Knowing that she had an armor he shot her in the head, while the pistol was in his jacket's pocket all the time.
Lex (shockingly ask Felix): "What was that?" Felix: "The plan was that she take everything and escape abroad, I want our agency to continue working. Besides, this is also personal, because Grant killed my father. I'm sorry that your agency lost member, we will not attack you because we don't have the need for it. " Colleagues who didn't believe finally realized that Keila was right from the start, they wanted to return the time and help her in the mission. With the mentioning of Keyla's name, Lex ran to the place where she was.
She was completely exhausted and it seemed that at any moment would become officially dead. Lex took her from the grass in which she laid and asked how she feels. Keila: "I think this is the end." Lex: "I just want you to know that all of the sympathy towards you is true and that I am ... in love with you since I first saw you, even in the face of Deyla I saw you. " Keila: "Really? Why didn't you tell me that earlier? Maybe we could be together, but now there is no more time for anything ..." Lex: "Just one kiss before you go. That's my only wish."
He gently kissed her and felt the blood disappear from his veins. On the other hand, Keila felt that she was returning to life. The colleagues that came to see where Lex is noticed that they were both pale and called for an ambulance, that came within ten minutes.
They both received a transfusion in the hospital and Keila's wound got stitches. The situation improved and they were moved to a hospital room, together in the same room. Lex woke up from the coma, a little later Keila as well. Lex: "What happened?" Keila : "I think I've took your life energy and blood and it made me alive." Lex: "You are alive?" (Removes the infusion from himself and gets up from the bed) "Keila:" What are you doing? (Lex approaches her and hugs her) You have to rest. Sorry I almost killed you." Lex: "You almost killed me the moment you were shot in the heart, but now I'm born again."
Lex began to kiss Keila again, but she stopped him with the words: "What if something happens now?" Lex: "It can be the end of the world, nothing can separate me from you anymore."
They kissed again, but this time passionately, as if that were the last kiss in their life. The only thing that happened this time is that the closeness between them has become stronger. They spent two days at the clinic and then they were let home.
A month later:
Lex's house. Lex is in the pool and Keila comes to him in a swimsuit. Lex (whistle): "The real tiger!" Keila: "The tigers attack quickly. More a panther." Lex: "Do you think water won't hurt wound?" Keila: "I consulted with the doctor, he said that everything is fine." Lex (putting his arm over her shoulder) I will never forgive myself for leaving you to die. Sorry and I said that you lost your mind." Keila:" It's forgiven to you. I am sorry that I was a bit wicked and mistrustful the first day you came to the headquarters. " Lex: "I don't even remember that! So, everything is fine?" Keila: "Yes. What are we going to do now?" Lex: "I have some ideas (moves fingers over her face), but I don't know if we can make that idea happen..." Keila: "You mean ..." Lex: "Yes, yes ... A lunch.A beetroot on the menu. "Keila (laughs):" And I have another idea before that beetroot ... If you catch me before it! " (coming out of the water and running toward the door, Lex ran after her and grabbed her) Lex: "I caught you, what now?" Keila (looking at him with her hazel eyes): "Let's go in, it's cold. Then ... I have to change clothes. " Lex: "I know what you want, but do you think your health is okay?" Keila: "Yes, I'm fine. Besides, now I no longer have blue skin or my wound is open." Lex: "Let's go in there then."
This month is on its end, leaving a warmer June to replace his place. In June, both Keila and Lex returned to their agency and everything was as before, except that they were now in relationship. Lex cared for Keila more than ever, and she was again healthy as before. Early in the year she got better and color in her face got back. Felix led his team in a fair manner and didn't come into conflict with Tony or anyone else.
Keila changed her style a little, she began dressing feminine and let her hair, rarely putting wig again. They finally started to trust her more and appreciate her work. That would be all, we say goodbye to our heroes and leave them in their world.

Disscusion:
The beginning of the story is related to a dream in which I was on Keila's place. It is way more morbid than the story, but here's how it went:
I shot at some armed men and moved from room to room. Finally, when there was no one else, I went outside to a park that looked a bit like a park in front of my high school. It was an unknown older man around whom gathered persons from my class. I shot at him and then I realized that I was in the stream up to my knee. One student from the earlier class was near me, so I moved and shot myself in the head. At the end of the dream I went back to the building and I went into the bathroom, where I let my hair to cover the wound and put makeup on so nobody would recognize me.
It didn't make sense that Keila have a wound on the head because it would be too visible (it was an option, but in the end I realized it was hard to do), and the rest was adapted to the story but Keila didn't intentionally shoot at herself like I did in my dream.
During the story, I had a dilemma whether to leave Keila in life or let her die. I think it's better I put love in this story and, instead of being Mortica (morte- death), it became Amortica (amore- love). In fact, the name of the entire story is got from the name of the next story, all three stories from this notebook have combined names and make up one whole, regardless of the fact that there are completely different stories with different characters.
For Keila, I have added some elements that make her special. If you notice, the main characters of my stories are usually "average" girls, many are brunette (I am a natural brunette and most girls of our geographical position have light skin and brown hair, so I take it for an average), but in each character there is some difference that would show that this is not the same character, for example, in this story that would be her eyes. Only several characters has that eye color, like Ella from "7 sisters" with her hair being blonde.
I admit I made a little longer break in writing because I had a severe period of depression during the writing, so I suffered from the lack of will for writing. It's nothing unusual and happens from time to time, but I'm used to such things.
The main problem was a plot for the business plan because agent, spy and similar subjects are not very close to my heart, but the story required that topic, and I had to make an effort. In the original idea, Keila was only supposed to get revenge and officially die, but then the story develops in a more romantic way.
Conclusion: Although the story was supposed to be morbid, it turned into a romantic fantasy, which is not so bad as the next story is thematically heavier and more serious, and "Amortica" looks like a nice start. Besides, this is the story in which, for the first time,I have the character who is between the dead and the living person, and that would give the story a supernatural genre.
