Bob’s plan was to return to his wife’s corporeal body’s side, while her immortal soul could already be very near him. He would make a telephone call to his in-laws and request them to hold the body in the mortuary. He would try to make it back within 24 hours, to personally administer her funeral rites, pending availability of flights. He made a furry of phone calls and established his flight route, booked his ticket and related his travel plans to his sister. He hurriedly packed his luggage and took his leave. After he left, she went from room to room, searching carefully for signs of the visitor; where is the orb ……. but it had other plans and had made itself scarce.
