Forgive the Interruption

Introduction

She was listening to her favorite song when the radio suddenly stopped working for just a moment. As she sat in her car waiting for it to start again she heard static coming from the speakers.

"Damn not again" she said and glanced out her window to see the guy in the car next to her fiddling with his car radio.

"Sarah" a voice could be heard from the static

She stared at her radio disbelief on her face. The radio was saying her name over and over again and she was stunned. She tried to change the station but on every station she put on the radio it was the same thing her name repeated in a monotone voice that gave her chills.

Traffic around her had come to a complete stop everyone was getting out of their cars and looking around. It was not something that happened every day she was sure of this one thing nobody had to know she was named Sarah in this day and age something that seemed paranormal was treated with fear.

"Is this some kind of publicity stunt?" she heard  said  and thought to herself "Yes they think its something else. Not death calling her name"

She knew Death was after her ever since she escaped from him last week. She felt her shoulder where the bullet was still lodged and knew that she would not be able to escape him to much longer.

The Doctors told her that she had to be careful until the bullet was in a place where they could operate. She knew she should not be driving but she had to go to the cemetery and see her love one last time before death found her.

"Sarah" the voice said again this time louder and with more urgency

"Not yet please" she said under her breath

Finally the traffic began to move again and she sighed with relief, the radio was still giving off static and now she was not even able to turn it off so she just drove with that voice repeating her name over and over nothing more just her name.

She pulled into the cemetery her hands shaking, sweat pouring off her brow. She could feel her heart beating in her chest and every so often she felt it pause like someone was holding it and not allowing it to beat.

She got out of her car and slowly walked to the grave. The dirt was still visible as they only buried him last week. She was not able to got to the funeral since she was still in the hospital so today was the only day that she could come since she knew tomorrow she would be lying next to him.

There was no denying that death was coming to get her but she was going to choose the time and place not him. She got to his grave and lay down beside it.

"Ok death" she closed her eyes
