Not dissatisfied with the situation, curious and a little excited about his uncertain future, he turned away from his corpse and floated further upward. But suddenly there was a bump!

His upward movement stopped. Like a balloon filled with gas, he collided gently with the ceiling next to the room lamp and his ascension into the unknown was interrupted. It seemed his matter - or energy or whatever it was - needed an open course to continue its journey. For a moment he thought of all the dead people in the coffins of the cemeteries, but he dismissed the thought soon after and concentrated fully on his dilemma.

"I have to get out!" he said softly to himself. Both his window and the entrance door were shut. If he had still been alive, he would have felt growing panic - but he was completely calm. He looked at his cold body and thought about how it could have happened and what he could have done differently. He recalled a certain sadness.
