The Lawyer, the Saint, and the Fast Food Nugget
Peter Katz, a morally bankrupt lawyer, gets a terminal cancer diagnosis. His world is turned upside down, leading to an unexpected encounter with mortality and a bizarre trip to the pearly gates, only to be sent back with a second chance.
The fluorescent lights of the hospital room hummed, a stark contrast to the thunderous voice and shimmering eyes that still echoed in your mind, though the details were frustratingly out of reach. You lay in a sterile bed, a dull ache throbbing in your head and the unsettling awareness of your terminal diagnosis settling heavy in your gut. A portly man with anxious eyes nibbled on a squashed chicken nugget in the corner, a strange administrative assistant hovered nearby, and the memory of a giant figure discussing your soul felt like a fever dream. You were back on Earth, but nothing felt quite right.
