A young man stood in the shadows, his hoodie up covering his face as he watched a couple enter a building of flats, a couple he knew so very well.

In hospital the young man had done a deal with the Grim Reaper, the Devil maybe, to give him the soul of the woman he had saved, in return he could have his back, it was not his time yet to give it up. The girl was now dead, her soul collected.

The wooden box, buried six feet into the ground did not contain the person called Richard, another body was inside the coffin. Richard had been given a second chance of life, but what life, alone unloved he thought.

The next part of the deal, the man who had caused all this would be completed soon when he hanged himself in his prison cell and his soul was also collected. Two would die so Richard could live.
