I have 4hours to spend on Earth: Story version When the news of me having 4hours left to live on earth was told to me, I felt so bad cause I have so many things I have promised, my mom, I wanted to get her, but now my left has been cut short and I just 4hours left, I tried to run out of the shine but the barrier placed around the shine by the priest kept me in. I was born a special child, my mom never told me of my birth or how I got my powers, my powers aren’t that of the superheroes you see on tv, I have the power to see a little into the future via my dreams. She never wanted to tell me I would die at the age of 20, but I kept having the dream of seeing myself dead, she took me to the priest and ask him to explain what was wrong with her son, he's already 20, I wasn’t sick, so why does her son keep having the dream of seeing himself dead.

He told her since she especially got the child and that was the condition given to her, currently, he only has 4hours to live. Immediately I heard that I was broken, I’m so young, why bring me into this world just to shorten my life, I have so much I want to do for you mom, after all, was said, all on my mind was how to spend the remaining hours left. I went straight to my best friend's home, he was glad to have me around, all he wanted to talk about was his new ps5 and how I promise to beat him in the football game, as he was talking I was just smiling, he was surprise cause he knew I would have talk back but I didn’t, he asked me what was wrong, I told him nothing, I had a game with him, I won 7 to 4 goals, he wanted another game but I told him I had somewhere else to because I already spend 1hour at his side, I left and started walking.

I spend 30minute on the walkway, all that was running through my mind was the thought of Abigail, my first love, I have been in love with her since I was little, I couldn’t tell her because of the fear that she wouldn’t feel the same way, but this time around, I know I have nothing to lose by telling her my feelings, I went straight to her house, luckily for me, she was outside like she was waiting for me, she wore a yellow gown, as the breeze blew, it moved her long hair backward and I could see the smile on her face again, I walked up to her and said, Abigail, I have something I have been meaning to tell you, I saw she was shocked but I went on. I’m in love with you, no I have been in love with you for a very long time and I didn’t dare to tell you, but I will today, I love you, Abigail, you make everything beautiful, your smile, your……. Before I could finish my statement, she hugged me and planted a kiss on my lips, and said, what took you so long, after much discussion, I realized I had 1hour left, I told her goodbye and said my final words to her, if I would come back again to this world, I would fall in love with you again, she smiles without understanding what I meant, and I ran home.

I got home to see my mom on the floor crying bitterly, I ran towards her, help her up and she sat down on her favorite blue chair, I made a cup of coffee for her and assured her I won't die, I called my cousins and other family members but made it a short call, I sat beside her legs, and rested my head on her laps, she used the palm of her hands to rub my hair as she told me the story behind my birth, at a point, I was feeling sleepy, I couldn’t see anymore but I could hear her voice, I couldn’t tell what she was saying, I was drifting away in my slumber, I could hear her calling my name, but I couldn't respond, I tried all my possible best but could, the next thing that happy was that I saw my mom crying over my body as I ascend from the earth.
