"Why would you tell him that you did, then?"
"So he'll leave me alone about why I'm dropping out."
"I doubt he will. If my best friend suddenly went broke, I'd be worried as hell."
"Too bad. I want him to leave me alone."
"Is that why you're dropping out?"
"Yeah."
"But he cares for you."
"But he's keeping me from what I want."
"What do you want?"
"I want to get to heaven."
"Why? Because of your parents?"
"No, because it's so beautiful. From what I've heard, at least. Just imagine it; beautiful blooming flowers, anything you want, all for free, and everyone is painless. Everyone that had something wrong with them, the problem is nonexistent. Of course, my parents would be a bonus, though."
"Tyler, everyone has a time that they're supposed to leave this earth. It isn't your time. You still have your whole life ahead of you. Don't you want a wife or husband, and kids? And grandchildren? Yeah, up there, it may be all fine and dandy, but down here, you get to experience so much. So much happiness, so much sadness, but it's worth it. Because you get to do so much, and learn, and grow. Tyler, you'll miss out on so much."
"I could just go to heaven for a little while, and if I want to come back, I can ask God to let me come back here."
"Tyler, it doesn't like that."
"Why not?"
"Because it just doesn't."
