Prologue

Winter, January 17, 2014 00:03 A.M.

So much had happened in last four months, but I really don’t know where to start whatever this is that’s happening.

Maybe I can track a bit with my report-diary way. It’ll take too much time to search the particular date when all of these started, not to mention I’m a rather forgetful person. So I might just try to practice my ability to recall past events.

It was around last summer, I think. When I moved for the first time in my life to NYC, it was also my first time of social life. Or outside contact. Family and internet friends were all I’d been talking to, home was where I’ve been lived all the time, and suddenly the comfort was taken away from me with college.

Thankfully, I survived without any big trouble and got some friends. The only trouble I had might be the fear that I had gotten the wrong major, but I pretty much got the basics covered on the first month.

Some of these friends are the ones who get the title of close friends of mine. They are Richard, who lives up to his nickname, Tess, Jo, Adrian, Chris and Kate. I won’t ever say I want to have it any other way; they are good friends, really good best friends, and the kindest people on my whole life �"besides my family of course.

Unfortunately, they are also happened to be the weirdest people I’ve the luck to meet with the first time life decided to throw me into society. I mean it in a loving and sarcastic tone. You know, other than it was overall just weird, it’s hard to be the one stuck with not really understand what the hell they are talking about every time its topic stuck into that particular one�"

�"okay. It’s hard to remind myself over and over again that they had gone from the living world. Like, it’s still fresh on my mind, as if it’s just happened yesterday.

I don’t want to write it again. I’m sure I can’t hold the emotion ready to burst out of my chest and eyes and overwhelms my mind�"

S**t.

See? The tears won’t f*****g stop.

It’s really hard to be reminded that they are gone over and over and over again.

Well, they are particularly gone only for me, but the point still stands.

Though I’m not sure how it can lead us here, I’m sure of one thing.

It hasn’t ended.

Yet.

While there are grammar issues, I know that English isn't your first language... so, for the review: Interesting way to catch our attention. Definitely feel the tension and angst from losing such close friends. Makes us want to find out what happened. Great start, fade.

What an intriguing start! Got a good sense of the main character and the relationship with the friends. Certainly want to know what happened to these friends and why it's still going on. Very nice!
