“Do you… still have faith?” I asked Judas. I was helplessly wounded on the floor, bleeding from a bullet that hit my shoulder.
“Yes I do.” He held my hand tightly. “Stay with me. Don’t sleep.” He took a piece of handkerchief and tried to stop the wound from bleeding by tying a tourniquet.
I was losing consciousness. I could feel the blood draining out of my veins, weakening my resolve to stay alive.
“Maybe, it is more beautiful in the other world. I have lost faith.” I whispered slowly and softly… my vitality erasing away.
“No! Stay with me. We can create something beautiful.” He tightened his grasp on my hands, cupping them together. “Believe in me.”
“You betrayed my trust.” I looked at him with all the effort I could muster. “You led to my death.” I teared.
“No! I love you. Believe me. I did love you.” He looked deep into my eyes, his brown hair touching the tips of my face, his scent, as addictive as ever. At least, I consoled myself, he is beside my deathbed.
“Did you loved me like how you loved Jesus?” I knew my time was running short, my voice dripping lower with each breath.
“Yes…. and no… but stay with me. Don’t go.” He began to cry uncontrollably, and whimpered.
He looked at me closely, bent over and laid a kiss on my lips, the Kiss of Judas.
“I can’t…” I glanced at his hands… I can no longer feel them.
I breathed his scent in heavily for the last time.
“Good bye, Judas.” I said as I drifted into the next life.
