Extend the Story - Add a Room

"Excellent," Mark grinned at me, "how about Jared?"

"I don't think..." I began, but I wasn't nearly quick enough. I suspected that was because Mark hadn't really been asking. Still, what was he thinking? Jared and I in the same room regularly? One of us would kill the other. I was pretty sure of that.

"Jared, report back to the front gates immediately." The announcement rang through the air around us. Mark's voice seemed to be coming from all around as he spoke. He repeated the words, then turned to me. "I suspect we have something of a wait on our hands. Have you got any questions I can answer?"

I did, I wanted to know

if I could visit mom in heaven sometime.
