RE: ADSactly Contest - SteemShort #2 - Post 1: Request for First Part of the Story

in #steemshorts6 years ago

The place is an unnamed Church Cemetery, in whose restricted precincts, stands surrounded by tombstones, a mango tree whose fruit is never gathered. On this day and hour, however, two innocent youngsters breach in to gather the ripe fruit…..

Along the periphery path, a drunkard popular for denying God’s existence, passes singing at the top of his voice...

Inside a candle lit house, a Reverend father who has passionately warned his church faithful about being ready for the coming of Jesus, incants in deep prayer…

The date is Dec. 31st 1999. The clock ticks down to the New Year. The world is braced for an impending apocalypse. The sun will darken. The moon will not give its light. The stars will fall from the sky. The powers of heaven will shake…. The world will come to an end.

Or so, biblical prophecy insinuates. The subject is discussed, in the Pulpits as in the Bars.

The choice is heaven or hell. Who is ready? Who can be sure where he or she will end up in?

As the characters each contemplate their destiny, the stroke of midnight will bring a moment of truth, for the Reverend, and for the drunkard…
