"It sucks when you know
that you need to let go,
but you can't cause you're still
waiting for the impossible to happen."

Lucas was deep in thought. It can clearly be seen that his mind were somewhere else.
Before now the only thing that used to keep him worried was his friend,Zack Bently. Actually, he never thought Zack will ever be able to love again. Aftet what happened to him, it was a miracle that he fall in love again.
A slow smile appear on Lucas's lips.
That girl, Liza, she sure is something. She has done something that he has tried so many times to do. She makes him smile again. It's like he's alive now.
Though Zack said that girl is stubborn as hell.
A chuckle escape him.
In fact, now a days the only thing Zack talks now is about her.He never thought there will be a day when the center of Zack Bently's world will be a girl. He truly loves her , a lot, more than he has ever loved anyone.

Zack's father and his father was close friends. And that's how he get to know the information. Honestly he still can't believe it.
Lucas sigh with sadness.
How can someone do this. He wanted to let Zack know but first he has to be sure.
Suddenly there was a knock at the door of the study.
"Come in." Lucas already know who is it. The person he has been waiting for. This is time like this when he wish that he can see.

"Good evening, sir." The man'a voice was deep. Lucas tried to imagine what he must look like.

"Do you have it." He cut to the point. That was how he was. Always straightforward.

"Yes Sir. Just like you asked. This recorder have every information you need."

"Everything?"

"Yes sir. Whatever has happened there, that night, before and after the accident, is all here." That man put the recorder on the table.

"Good. You may go now." Lucas dismissed him already too eager to get the player.

Aftet he was gone Lucas's hand wander around the table trying to find it. He could've asked the man to give it to him but that'd be considered as vulnerability and Lucas hates vulnerability.
His hand finally found the recorder. His finger itches to just touch the play button.
After taking a deep breath, he prepare himself and pressed the button but nothing in the world can prepare him for what was going to come next...

"I wish I can come, at least for your mom. She's hot. By the way, did you get your father's looks. That explained why you're not hot like your mom." Nick keep talking and eating popcorn totally oblivious about the volcano I was becoming.

"NICK.. You jerk..." I throw a pillow at him.

"How much I wish that was a knife. At least I was going to be happy."
Anna sigh dramatically

"And how much I wish it was a girl ."
That earned him another pillow but this time from Anna.

"Dude, that's gross. And stop talking about my mother that way or else."

"Ah ,that billionaire boyfriend of yours has brainwashed you. You're threatening now too. If this keep on then soon my friends will attend my funeral." Nick look at us trying to get some sympathy.

"Don't worry, Nick. I'll definitely attende it." I assured him and his face turned shocked.

"Umm..you know how busy I'm but don't worry, even if I can't, I'll send a fabulous letter saying I definitely approved it." Anna says to him giving me a wink.
