Why can't I move!?

What is this cold sensation I'm feeling!?

Anybody?!?

Huh? Is that a crack of light?

I-I can see it in the distance!

Help! Can anyone help me!?

Why can't I speak!!?!

Please...

...

...

I want to move...

I want to see...

H-Huh? A-Am I moving?

I-I think I'm on some vehicle or something? Maybe a truck?

And it's freezing.

I'm so cold.

Hu-Huh??

My eyes are opening slowly?

Can I finally mo—

I'm staring up at a frozen, metal ceiling.

I can't move.

I can't close my eyes.

What's going on?!

Please! I-I want to move!

It's so cold.

So, so cold.

My eyes sting.

They burn!

I don't want to see anymore!

Please let me close my eyes!

Let me blink at least!

I can't move a single muscle.

...

...

Voices.

I hear voices.

Hey! Help me! I'm over here!

What?

Wha—

OOOFF!!

I've just been loaded out of the vehicle. The outside looked red and white, like an ambulance.

Now I can hear multiple different voices...

Saying...

I'm dead?!?!

What!? No! I'm still alive! I'm still breathing—

I can't breath.

I literally can't breath.

I still can't move.

Still can't blink.

I've just been covered with a cloth.

...

...

How long have my eyes been opened, listening to these damned voices who keep claiming I'm dead!?

I'm not dead!! I'M NOT DEAD!!!!

Stop saying I am...

Please...

...

...

The door opened again, but this time—

Huh?

The piece of cloth I've me was removed.

And I saw—

*sob* *sob*

*Y-Yes... that's her...*

I hear voices.

Familiar voices.

Mom? Dad?

Why are they crying? Why are they sobbing over me?

Do... do they think I'm dead?

Like everyone else?

...

NOOOOO!!!

NO! NO! NOOOOOO!!!!

I'm not dead!!!!!

I'M NOT DEAD!!!!!

Don't leave me Gerrard!!!

GERRARD!!!

So much for heaven.

I'm so cold.

So. So. So. Cold.

How long have I been in here?

This freezer?

Two days?

Two weeks?

Two years?

I lost count.

...

I'm finally out.

Out of that hell...

...

Though I know there is no hell.

...

...

There is no heaven.

...

There is no afterlife.

...

Just this...

...

There they all are.

My friends. My family.

They've closed my eyes, not like I wanted to see anyway.

I can hear their voices.

Through what I presumed was a coffin.

...

...

It's definitely a funeral.

I can hear them all tell my parents, my husband Gerrard, how sorry they are.

I hear them chatting.

Joking.

Crying.

...

...

I want to cry.

Please let me cry...

...

...

...

...Today's the final day.

I'm getting cremated in two hours, from what I can hear.

...please let that be the end.
