Good Company by Madinah Hazim-Adams (free ebooks romance novels txt) 📕

he had the most strong jaw line, perfect teeth and olive skin and hair that was dark like molasses. As he smiled at me my stomach was full of butterflies. My heart stopped as he reached out to touch me. I was shocked and when I looked around to find Jasmine she was gone. I started to panic, then the man pulled me closer and whispered, “You’re amazing, come with me.” With the seductive look in his eyes I was mesmerized and lured in. Then suddenly, Jasmine came back and yelled, “Take your hands off of her!” She said, “Mina come here,” then as I turned to leave with Jasmine I looked back and he turned into an ugly man. He had warts all over his face.

As we left I was shocked and Jasmine said, “Mina that was your test. If you would have gone with him, you would have had a taste of hell. Sometimes they make it here, but are punished more severely when they are caught. Before you ask, “Who are they?” I will tell you. That man was an evil spirit. While he was on earth he was a womanizer and an evil man. He used his looks to manipulate situations, so when he went to hell he became his sin. What I mean by that is that on earth he was a womanizer, so in hell his only form of happiness is trying to take advantage of women. When he gets rejected he turns ugly. I don’t know how his soul got here, but sometimes souls can escape from hell, but when they are caught they go back to hell.

Mina touched my shoulder to reassure me. She told me, “Mina, do not worry, when you truly enter paradise souls like that can’t touch you. But since you are only visiting, you could have been in danger. I’m sure that he sensed your weakness and that’s why he came onto you. He could see that you were not supposed to be here. Mina that test should show you that you always have to be careful. By the way, I’m sure now you know that I am an angel. God loves you. That’s why I came in your desperate time of need. But our time together is almost over and I need to go help someone else. When you wake up in the morning you won’t remember this. It will be as if it was a dream, but I can tell you that you will feel something. I think unconditional love. That is something that only God can really give. Mina, you should also keep your job. Those people need you. As I go remember your life has a purpose.”

Then as I watched Jasmine walk away into the golden sunset, there was the most annoying beeping sound. All of a sudden I opened my eyes and I was staring at the ceiling, but before I got that feeling in the pit of my stomach, that I got every day before work; it didn't happen this day. I reached over to turn off the alarm and got up and looked into the mirror. I knew this was my same room, dresser, bed, but something was different. Then I touched the top of the dresser to get my brush and found a beautiful rosary. I had no idea where this came from. Then I saw a note attached; it read: “Mina, God loves you,” – Jasmine. I first thought who is Jasmine? I hope I am not going crazy and who was here last night? But the most peculiar thing was that I felt peace. It didn’t matter what did or did not happen last night, or what would happen in the future, because I always knew that God was with me.
