Have you ever thought about what fiction is? Probably, such a question may seem surprising: and so everything is clear. Every person throughout his life has to repeatedly create the works he needs for specific purposes - statements, autobiographies, dictations - using not gypsum or clay, not musical notes, not paints, but just a word. At the same time, almost every person will be very surprised if he is told that he thereby created a work of fiction, which is very different from visual art, music and sculpture making. However, everyone understands that a student's essay or dictation is fundamentally different from novels, short stories, news that are created by professional writers. In the works of professionals there is the most important difference - excogitation. But, oddly enough, in a school literature course, you don’t realize the full power of fiction. So using our website in your free time discover fiction for yourself. Closer To Heaven by Patrick Sean Lee (books to read romance .txt) 📖

In that moment, through all my tears, I knew. Charles had fallen in love with me. He was bound by his trust to nurture me—he might be dying in part because of that heavy burden—and so what final act of love could he give me that would be finer?
As the weeks passed cruelly by, his own deterioration growing by the day, and then the hour, I sang to him in seven notes as I sat at his bedside wiping his feverish brow. My wonderful Charles, who many years earlier I feared so deeply, smiled up at me—at all of us gathered—that moment he left.
They are waiting. Francis Jr. is busy exploring the dusty room, uninterested in this plain, black box. I begin to sing the first notes as everyone else holds their breath in anticipation. I wonder what we’ll find when the door we cannot see opens?
