The night is dark. The clouds are crying. The lightning are screaming. I wind is breathing so fast. I can feel the chills on my whole body. Is this really the end? I can hear my heart beating so fast. I can feel Hana's hand shaking. Is this could be it? Seeing that man's deadly eyes it feels like death is already calling me. Then there's a flash of light. A lightning. That was the moment my whole body started shaking. I have a traumatic experience about it. And it's flashing me back to that night. A night I dont want to remember.

Way back 7 years ago, I remember having a vacation with my parents. We visited the old family house where I used to play with someone. She's my childhood friend. My buddy through ups and down. But the thing is I dont know her name until now. The only thing I remember about the woman is her good scent of perfume. No matter how far or how dark the place is, as long as I can smell her perfume. I know already it was her. I always wonder where she is now? If she's doing fine or anything.
Everyday we see each other to play. From sunrise to sunset we came and play. Day and night. Every moment with her is always fun.
Until one day, there was a huge storm. I can hear the heavy rain pouring above our house. I was home alone that night, watching my favorite tv show. Suddenly someone forcely opened the door. I was shocked at that moment that I couldnt even more.
As my brain tried many times to know who the hell is this guy entering my room I grab something so that I can defend myself. Until I realized it was my father. His clothes are wet because of the heavy rain. My father's mood is something unpredictable. I can't tell what's on his mine. I can't come up with a conclusion. What's happening? My father was never been this serious before? He's always that cheerful,jolly and soft father. What the hell happened now.

"My dear John, grab your important things now! Double time! We need to go now!" He shouted. I can feel my whole body panicking. Shaking like it was about to explode. Everything are not sinking unto my mind.
"Wha-what's happening fa-father?" Asked I with a cracking voice. He came to me and grab my shoulder. Looked at me with his deadly eyes.
"I'm sorry son, but I have no time to explain. Just do what I say and Move!" He briefly explained. So I did what he told me to do. Gather the things that I think I needed. No matter how big or small I just grab the things I want to grab.

As soon as we get inside the car, my father drove so fast that I can't even to find my perfect and comfortable position. I can see my mother seated beside my father. She looked at me then smiled.
"Don't worry honey, everything is okay. It's just that something urgent happened" said mother while her voice is almost crying. I just smiled back and tried to make myself not to panic.
Giving myself a time to calm down although I can see them like a problematic parents. I really have no clue. Not a single clue.

The moment I looked at the window, I can see how heavy the rain is. The road is almost not visible good thing that my father can still handle it. I can see the trees are dancing, some of them almost ready to fall down because of the wind.
Few moments later I can hear them talking about something I'm not familiar with. It seems like about their jobs or business? My mother is about to cry while my father is explaining his side. Until I saw a glimpse of light infront of the car. It was a light from a truck that my father did not noticed. It was too late when he reacted.

There was a great impact through the wall that causes their death. I'm so lucky that I survived.
I walked out of the car and started screaming. Calling their names as if they will answer me. I barely see them because of the rain falling. Until there was a sudden flash of light and that was the moment I saw their corpses inside the car. Starting that night, I can't sleep if I can hear or see a lightning and a thunder. It gave me so much trauma.
After the heavy rain until now I still dont know what my parents are talking about. I still dont know why they're arguing with something. It feels like they're hiding something from me.
This is my second life, aside from being able to survived that night. Someone helped me to recover. To pay for the bills for what happened.
It was my childhood friend's parents. They do all the work, did everything for them to help me.

They were planning to adopt me but my grandparents refused to. They took good care of me till I grown up this tall. But I hope one day I can meet my childhood friend's parents so that I can thank them for what they have done to me.

And now. At this moment. Holding Hana's hand. Shaking while there's a sudden flash of lightning. Looking at this weird ass guy. But also giving me that attitude eyes. Damn. I hate this guy. I can also see Elizabeth looking at me, like she was really sorry. I know she tried her best saving the both of us. But it was maybe too late now? I can't lose her.

"Give her up already will you?" Said that annoying guy while offering his hand for Hana to hold it. This bastard is getting into my nerves. I was about to say something when Hana suddenly speaks.

"Just let me go Max, there's no other choice. We're trapped." Said Hana. I can see her eyes turning to color red. She's about to cry. Even her voice is also cracking. The last thing I told her is.

"I'm sorry"
