Chapter 1 - Death

On a rainy night in the fairly lit streets, a 19 year old boy is seen walking on the pedestrian walkway with a light blue umbrella.

"Aha, what a day" says the boy. As the boy is drowsy a fast moving truck goes unnoticed by him and approaches at a very high speed.

When the boy crosses the first half of the road, the truck finally arrives and slams into him.

Some time before....

Change of POV

An alarm clock rings irritably in my ears making me have no choice but to wake up and turn it off.

My name is Tallen . I like to think of myself as an introvert although there are times when am an extrovert. Am 18 years old and today is a big day for me since am graduating from high school.

I go brush my teeth,take a bath and where my graduation suit and am done by 8:00am so I get a ride to school.

The journey takes about 30 minutes and I arrive at my school. The school is decorated with glittering stuff of some sort and roses at the gate.

Inside the school is newly renovated with new classy furniture,speakers and also painted anew making it hard to recognize that this was the place I spent my highschool life in.

As it was a big day for students graduating, I met some of my friends and we talked, played around and some of us even fought ourselves in online games.

When it clocked 10:00am, we headed to the hall and there we listened to the principals speech.

As usual, the speeches were very boring and majority of the graduating students dosed off.I don't now why they make there speeches long.

Anyway after 2 hours and 15 minutes the speech cames to an end and every one started clapping even though they didn't exactly get what the principal said.

I happily went out.

While walking through the school hallway, I feel some vibrations from my phone in my pocket so I check it.

One of my friends sent me a message talking about a party that will occur tonight and he also asked me to attend.

Since I had nothing better to do, I agreed to appear for the party.

As am browsing my phone for the latest news, I bump into a girl who is also graduating today.After apologizing I decide to ask her if she's interested in having a party tonight with everyone tonight.

After much thought, she agreed to come for the party so I told her the venue and said goodbye to her as I left then headed home.

After 6:00pm,I changed into some party just a black T-shirt and white jeans and converse shoes with a mix of white and black then got a ride to take me to the party venue.

I arrived at the party venue at about 7:15pm and went straight to my friends to fill me on any interesting news.

As we were talking, I noticed tje girl I invited to the party approaching so I took the liberty of introducing her to my friends.

I checked the time and it was already 8:40pm so I asked here why she arrived late and turns out that she got lost on the way.

Not minding any further about her late arrival I took her and my friends to eat some food as we waited for the dancing to begin.

The dancing started at 9:00pm so we decided to join in and dance with everyone else.

The dancing and all the fun continued until I took a rest and sat at a table , wondering what was the time I checked on my phone only to find out that it was past 12:00pm already so I told my friends bye and left for home.

I wasn't exactly feeling sober so I called for an Uber or something but none were available so I decided to walking.

Walking when not sober is quite the experience but I made sure to look sober , unfortunately when I was time to cross a road junction I did not look at the traffic lights and just simply crossed the road.

A truck from God now's were slumped into me and everything went black not even giving time for my life to flash before my eyes.
