             “What are you doing, Justin? The seven years old Luke shouted to his friend who was bending down looking at the ground.  He thought Justin didn’t hear him, so he decided to approach him to get a better look.  “What are you looking at?”  Luke greeted his friend.  “Hey Luke! I’m watching a snail.” Justin replied happily after glancing at his friend. “Look! It woke up!”  He cheered. “What do you mean?” Luke asked.  “Come here. I’ll show you.” Luke joined Justin to bow down. “It is looking at us, shh” Justin put a finger at his lips signalling Luke to stay quiet. “Ah... I see.” Luke covered his mouth with his hand and watched the moving snail that successfully gained his attention. “So pretty...” Luke murmured. “Hey, let’s go play at the park.” Justin suggested after he got bored watching the snail. “Let’s go!” Luke replied and quickly stood up and waved at the snail. “Take care, dear snail!” He said before running to the park with Justin to play catch.             “That’s the time we started to get close. Just because of a snail. Do you still remember our other memories together since then?” Twenty years old Luke closed his eyes shut after finally able to ask the question he always wanted to ask. “Do you still remember?..” His voice cracked. “I’m sorry to what I did to you Justin…” Tears rolled down his cheek slowly. “I didn’t mean it...” Luke held Justin’s hand tightly. He was in the dumps to see the laying Justin in front of him. Justin’s face was as pale as dead, his body was ice-cold. Never less, the small hospital’s machine beside him was still beeping loud. Luke sighed; he wiped the falling tears at his face with the back of his hand. “I’ll be back...” Luke covered Justin’s body with a bed sheet before headed out the door. Luke went to the garden that was at the top floor of the hospital’s building. He used the lift and as soon as he arrived, the cold breeze hit him- sending shivers to his body. Luke didn’t wear his jacket; more like he doesn’t want to. Luke took a glance at the garden. It was small but well-decorated. Many types of colourful flowers were there. Luke smiled by the view, before making his way to the bench to sit himself down. He leaned his back against the bench, head hung down. The wind blew his dark shiny brown hair but Luke doesn’t even seem to care to fix it up. He was a total mess. His problems were right and left, waiting to be solved. Letting out a sigh, he pulled his hair hard out of frustration. He tried to calm down by taking a deep breath and exhale it, but instead he burst out crying. He cupped his face in his large hands while shaking his head. He doesn’t know what to do; he felt stupid and useless. Minutes later, he was off to dreamland by the help of the melodious bird’s chirp also the accompanied from the wind.               “Wake up! Wake up!” Luke felt the sudden poke at his stomach. He squinted his eyes, trying to open them. “H-huh?” He voiced out sleepily. “Wake up, Luke!” A familiar voice ringed in Luke’s ear. Luke opened his eyes wide just to see a lean figure in front of him. He frowned before finally able to recognize the guy. “Justin…?” “Yes I am. Come on, dude!” Justin pulled Luke by the arm to make him stand up. “Why are you sleeping here?” Justin asked. Luke felt weird by the sudden skin ship from Justin, but decided to get along with it. “Why I can’t sleep here?” Luke asked back. “Luke, people are watching you sleeping. I tried to find you since the morning and you didn’t even answer my calls.” Luke examined the place, and he was at a park. He looked at the people around him who were staring intently at him as if he was a criminal that just gone out from the jail. His eyes then fell to Justin back. “Aren’t you supposed to be in the hospital right now?” Luke thought. “Come on. Let’s go change” Justin walked to the park entrance, followed by Luke. “He is as fit as a fiddle. Is this a dream?”   “Where are we going by the way?” Luke started a conversation when he felt the silence was slowly killing him in the car. “To get you attire of course. We’re going to my fiancée house.” Justin kept on driving without giving a single glance at Luke.  Luke nodded; he still remembered Justin told him that he was arranged to a marriage by his parents, but soon after he fell for the girl. ‘She must be lucky’ Luke smiled. Justin was rich, kind-hearted and responsible. The ladies at their college were dying to have him but his fiancée who have successfully stolen his heart were blessed to have him just like that.   “Here we are. The party will start off one hour from now. We need to be quick.” Justin and Luke entered the boutique called ‘Julie’s Boutique’ after Justin parked his car by the road. “Find your tuxedo. I’m paying” Justin announced joyfully. “What? No! I’ll pay for myself” Luke said before began scanning around, and find out that the boutique was no joke. Even a simple dull grey coloured tuxedo cost $4500. Luke gulped his saliva; trying to find the cheapest one. He was not as ri
