You know when people die, they have an orgasm!
These were the very first words in Rachelâs story for Professor Burr. She had written it late last night, âand the idea was a brilliant oneâ, she thought. The young, very sensual women lived the adage that one should write from their own experiences. And indeed, a dead person having an orgasm was one of her experiences.
THE STORY CONTINUES
It was 10 oâclock, Friday night and Rachelâs grandfather was dying. He had been dying for 80 years, but now the day had arrived when all the complaining, painfulness and annoying aches, would go away. She loved him very much and had let him know that her entire life.
âHe was a beautiful man,â she would say, âwith a smile like no other person in the entire world. When he would curl his lips up, his eyes would somehow open as wide, as wide could be and he would get these amazingly symmetrical lines running adjacent to them.â
But mostly, her grandfatherâs face shone a light that was so bright, she remembers as a child, once having to close her eyes from its brilliance and vividness.
And tonight, she would loose him and her life would be alone, without him forever and ever. She whispered in his ear that she would like to speak to him, eve after his death. He was still conscious and very concerned with how his very special granddaughter was feeling. Grandpa nodded back and promised her with his eyes that he would come back after he had died, to talk with her.
Rachel opened her eyes. Somehow, at some point in the evening, Rachel had curled up on the bed with her grandfather and was hugging him. She looked around. Everyone was sleeping. As soon as she opened her eyes however, she realized that her grandfather was cold. And more specifically, Grandpa was dead.
Rachel began to cry. She didnât want to loose him. They had such great talks. Who would she talk to? Who could understand her? And who would take care of him? She cried all day and all night â well after the Funeral Home had taken his body away.
Finally, at 9 that night, beautiful Rachel fell asleep. She was exhausted from the outpouring of her feelings and felt utterly spent. As she entered into a very deep sleep, warmth ran through her body, unlike anything she had ever felt. It was like shaking hands with a steel worker. You know when you get buried in the muscles of their hand, and the holiness of their work (because every laborer has something special about them).
It seemed that a very gentle, nice ghost was invading her. The noise in her head was interrupted by a voice. It sounded very familiar. It was Grandpa and she knew he would come back.
âRachel, donâtâ cry so much, honey. Iâm fineâŠIn factâŠ.â, Grandpa stopped.
âIn fact whatâ Rachel asked. âWhat is it?â
âWell, when I died last night, youâll not believe this but I had the greatest orgasm of my life, â Grandpa laughed.
âGrandpa, thatâs not true, âRachel said, very intrigued. âTell me the truth. When you died, didnât you see a white light and images bidding you forward? Thatâs what everyone says.â
