DESTINED

MARCH 26th , 1988

In a Pawn Shop in the middle of town 

A Boy was looking at a Pocket Watch in glass box on the top shelf.He was mesmerized by that watch maybe because it was mostly made out of gold.The Boy wanted to get the watch so badly but couldn't reach it because it was too high for him..

The Store Keeper , John Berlin(a skinny 48 year old man he was about 5'4 in height and is always seen wearing a wrist watch), noticed the boy reaching for the watch.He was amused by what he had seen so he approached the boy.

"Is this what you want ?"--said the Old Man while holding the Pocket Watch

"Y-Yes Mister.."--answered the boy

The Old Man knew that he wanted the Clock so Badly But had no money to purchase it So...

"Here , You can have it"--the Old man said with a Smile

The Boy politely accepted the pocket watch from the old man

"Th-Thank you Mister.."

The Old man was curios about the Boy and why the boy wanted the Pocket watch so much but before he could ask the boy anything , a Tall Gentleman came in the store ..

"Zack ! Its time to go home now , son."--the Tall Gentleman said to the boy

"Okay Father.I'll be right there"

The Boy Looked at the Old man with a Smiling Face and said..

"Thanks again for the Present Mister :)"

Then he Left the Store with his father.

"Zack..hmmmmmm So that's your name..What an interesting boy you are Zack.I hope our Paths Cross again in the Near future"--said the Old man while he was returning to his post

Meanwhile ,  Young Zack was still admiring his Pocket Watch that was Reflecting the sunlight Its Big Hand was between 11 and 12 while the Small Hand was between 5 and 6. His Father noticed him and his new "Toy"(his father thinks it is just a toy watch painted gold)

"If you keep playing with your New  toy like that you'll trip and hurt yourself , where did you get that toy anyway son?"--stated the father

"The Kind Old Man from the shop Gave it to me Father.Isn't Shinny ?"--answered the Boy while holding it up 

"Oh Did he ? Well Then , We should thank him tomorrow morning"

"Yeah !"

"We should hurry home then so we can show your mother your new toy"

"I'll Race you there Father ! --he said while Zack started to walk faster

The Two Started to run through the fields while Laughing and Smiling until they reached their home on top of a small hill . As they got closer to the house , The Father sensed that something was wrong so he rushed towards the door.Zack didn't knew what exactly was happening at that time , until he heard father SHOUT loud

"NOOOOOOOO !!!!!!!" -- the noise could be heard for miles away.Zack quickly ran inside their home , he searched in every room until he got to his parents room... there he saw his father Crying and kneeling beside the bed where his mother was resting.His mother wasn't moving at all , her face was pale , her eyes had tears but she was smiling..

"M-Mother.. Why a-are you... W-Why is father crying ...W-what happened ?!!"

Zack still didn't know what was happening , his Father and Mother wasn't answering .. until his father slowly stood up and went near Zack..

"Son,*sniff**sniff*,your m-mother... your mother is..."

"WHAT HAPPENED TO MOTHER ?!!?!?!"--he Shouted

His Father held Zack's shoulder and Slowly said..

"Your MOTHER IS DEAD..."--his Father uttered

Zack quickly ran to his beloved mother to see if it was true .. his mother was in fact DEAD but Zack didn't want to accept it..

"No,Mother !!! Mother !!!! No , Tell me Father is Just Fooling me , PLEASE mother , WAKE UP !! WAKKEEE UPPPPPPPP!!!"

Zack couldn't accept what was happening either did his Father ..

But as the two of them were crying the Pocket Watch in Zack's Pocket  started to shine but neither of them noticed it, His Hands were at 12 and 6 and appeared to have stopped moving ... 

On that day , Zack's Life will be never again be the same as before..
