TW // BLOOD // DEATH

The fresh blood from the corpse leaked out like the warm filling of a delicious lava cake.

How can we tell from the outside if a human is dead?

Well, it is indeed quite similar to a body that is in a sleeping position. Only the heart stops beating, and the lungs stop inhaling oxygen. The kidneys, stomach, and intestines stop working, so the whole body shuts down.

The lifeless human eyes were wide open, pupils fully dilated, staring into the distant nothingness.

They say before you die; you see a short movie of your life flashing before your eyes until you see a shining light that guides your soul to the unknown paradise. Oh, what a wonderful dream.

No one is prepared to see a dead body for the first time. And everybody reacts differently when that moment comes. Some people let out an accidental or unwanted scream, laugh, or cry. No one knows how to handle that kind of situation.

“Damn it, I liked this carpet. Too bad, we have to get rid of it.”

Only psychopaths would react that way if they had a dead body lying by their feet. Right?
