The reaper sighs as he makes his way to the next soul. The house he stood before was brown and luxurius. The garden was full with a small path leading to a table and chairs with flowers lining the path. The reaper smiles as he sees the beautiful garden. For some reason gardens always brought a smile to his face. How rediculace right? A reaper loving flowers.

The reaper phased through the wall into the home. There was a family of four sitting at the dinning room table eating dinner. They were laughing together and having a good time talking about their days and what not. The reaper slowly walked around the table and smiled watching them have a good time. Unfortunally he knew that their day would become very grim.

He pulled out his tablet and looked at the picture of the person he was meant to reap and how he was supossed to do it. The person was the dad of the family. He looked over to the dad smiling with his kids. The reaper never wanted to do this but it's what the universe had in mind. If it was up to him he's be a human and run in the grass, have fun, smile with others, have friends and a family, have a pet, and plant a garden.

The reaper took a deap breath before raising his scythe above the mans head. He quickly slashed in down and the scythe went completly through the man. Just then the man started to cough and squeeze his chest, he was having a heartattack. His whole family jumped up to help him. They were all yelling and screaming, the kids were crying, and the mom was dialing the hospital. The reaper sighed and floated out of the home. Even though he's a reaper he values ever life.
