(Jack Nicholas pov)

Its my birthday I just turned 19, my friend and college roommate Greg decided we should go out to eat for my birthday. "Where r we going Greg?" I ask, annoyed yet glad not to be in our dorm room. "Its a surprise Jack" he says, 'I hate surprises but I'll allow it' I think to myself.

We walk for about an hour to a local restaurant called KFB (Kentucky Fried Beef) and order (f/f) and (f/d). I sit at a table beside a window and wait for Greg to grab the food. Once we had gotten our food we started taking about life.

"So Jack has anyone caught ur eye lately?" Greg asks with a smirk. I roll my eyes and shake my head, "kinda but I don't really wanna talk about it. Besides its guys night who wants to talk about girls?" I ask with a smile on my face.

Greg ponders for a moment then shakes his head, "good point" he says laughing. 'At least I can make him laugh....... I wonder how mom is doing?' I think to myself. I notice Greg was no longer sitting at the table. I look around only to see him talking to the restaurant workers.

'This asshole better not have said anything' I think to myself pulling out my phone. I decide to text my mother.

*hey mom how ya been?* I ask

* could be better* she says

*whats wrong?* I ask

*ur dad and sister were in a terrible car accident. Neither of them survived. I'm sorry, but I'm dealing with alot right now. Can we talk tomorrow?* she says

*I...... ya ill talk to u tomorrow..... goodnight mom* I say

*goodnight* she says

'Dead......their dead..... not news I want to hear on my birthday but its life I guess' I think to myself. I'm lost in thought as Greg puts a hand on my shoulder, "hey man u ok?" He asks. I look at him and shake my head, "no" I say.

Greg sits down with concerned look on his face, "whats wrong?" He asks. I look at him trying not to cry, "my dad and sister died in a car accident" I say crying by this point.

'Poor jack..... and on his birthday to' I think to myself. I try to comfort Jack but he pushes me away, I get up and go tell the lady at the register ot to worry about signing happy birthday to him and just order a birthday cake.

I look back at Jack and he's just sitting there looking through pictures of him, his dad, and his sister. 'I feel bad for him..... I'll just get the cake and we'll leave' I think to myself. "Greg" register lady says, I snap out of it and grab the cake "thank u" I say.

I walk back over to Jack and put my hand on his shoulder, "come on man let get back" I say. He nods and gets up without a word.

Greg gets up after I tell him what happened, I ignore the fact that he did tell the register lady it was my birthday. I start looking through old photos of my dad and sister, knowing ill never see them again.
