It was quiet in the train, there are only few people. Until Chun spoke "Hey, I'm so bored, let's play." Chun asked. "Play what?" Zeke asked him back. "Drums of course!" Chun answered. "How? We don't have any drums here." Zeke asked curiously. "Well you don't have to worry." Chun answered as he took 2 pairs of drumsticks and a practice pad out of his bag. "You bring them around everyday?" Zeke asked surprisedly. "Well, yeah, just in case, haha, let me teach you something else." Chun gave Zeke a pair of drumsticks. Now the train is filled with the rhythm of drumsticks hitting on the practice pad.

2 hours passed by "Okay, I'm going to take a nap now. Goodnight.... or morning whatever." Chun said as he slept on his bed. But it didn't stop Zeke, Zeke was still trying to figure out the semi quaver para-diddle that Chun had taught. Until him, fell as sleep too.
"Wake up, passengers, we've reached the destination." The driver came out from the door and told everyone to wake up. "Whew, 10 missed calls ? Shit." Zeke checked his phone. "Never mind, I'll just turn off the phone so they can't call me anymore." Zeke thought to himself as he walking down the train with his luggage. "We made it!" Chun yelled from behind. "Emm Chun can I borrow your phone?" Zeke asked. "Well, sure, what for?" Chun asked back as he taking out his phone. "Well I need to call Crystel but I can't turn on my phone for a reason." Zeke answered without looking into Chun's eyes. "Well, just don't do anything weird to my phone haha." Chun gave him the phone.
"Du-du....du-du.... *click* Hello ? Who's this?" A familiar voice came out through the phone. "Emm, it's Zeke, I've reached Washington." Zeke answered. "What? Where are you now." The familiar voice was Crystel. "Emm, the Washington Train Station." Zeke answered. "Ok I'm coming, just... just wait right there." Crystel seemed upset.
"Soooo, how ?" Chun asked. "She told me to wait here." Zeke answered. "What? It's Washington, man, can we go somewhere else, let's do something fun." Chun jumped. "No, I didn't come here to play, if you want to play, go then!" Zeke shouted, he was still upsetting about Crystel's new home. "Ok fine, 小气鬼." Chun mumbled to himself in Chinese as he walked away.
"Now I'm just going to wait." Zeke thought to himself as he walking to a bench nearby.
1 hour passed by, there is no Crystel, no one. Zeke saw Chun running back to him "Look, I was having fun at the arcade centre then I received a message, I'm guessing it's from Crystel. It said 'Sorry, Zeke, I can't meet you right now, please just go home.' " Chun explained the whole thing to Zeke. "What, no way, it must be mistaken." Zeke said loudly. "Come on, man, let's just go home, your family must be worrying about you." Chun patted on Zeke's shoulder. "NO, THEY DON'T, THEY DONT EVEN CARE ABOUT ME!" Zeke shouted at Chun again. "Look, man, I know they must had called you, because they care. I don't understand why are you being such a kid here, my dad is in jail and my mom only come back home on Sunday, the other day she was probably getting drunk sleeping on the street. And you are here complaining about this little thing, not cool, dude, I thought you said you want to be a great drummer, well, suit yourself, I'm going back, bye." Chun fired back, Zeke must had triggered him. "No, wait, I'm sorry, I'll go with you, I'm sorry...." Zeke grabbed Chun's hand. "Not to me, to your family, you should call them, they must be worrying sick." Chun told him. "Okay, I will." Zeke said as he took out his phone and turned it back on.
"Hey, mom, I'm sorr............" Zeke called his mom. "Are you okay? Where are you right now? I'm so worry about you, dear." Mom interrupted. "Mom, I'm in Washington, I'm heading back, I'm sorry, I love you." Zeke hung up the phone while he was trying to hold back from crying out loud.
"Hey... I'm so sorry about that just now." Zeke apologised to Chun while heading back in the train. "Meh, no worries, it's all good." Chun nodded while looking out the window, he was thinking about his family. And they didn't talk anymore since then.
