-Hi, you're calling Panda Express, this is Al—-Hello Alyx.
- God . . . it's you again, this is the fourth time this week I don't wanna answer any of your stupid questions!
-Wait, this is really important! Can you overdose on—
-God Lukie, what did you do or what are you trying to do?
-I didn't do anything. . . . Wait, did you just call me . . . Lukie?
-Yes, you never told me your name, but don't tell me I don't care.
-Well, it's Frea, whether you wanted to know or not. And I'm just trying to order my damn food, so be a good employee and take it, dammit!
-Ugh, Fine! This is Panda Express what can I get ya?
-Large orange chicken and fried rice with a medium lemonade . . . and a story please, I'm lonely.
-Okay. I'll tell you a story but only because you asked nicely and It's closing time. Let me think about this. . . . Okay, I have one. Spoiler alert, this is a sad ass story and you might cry.
-Well, then I don't wanna hear it. I already might be dying from cancer and you really wanna send me out with a sad story? You're morbid as—
-Well too damn bad this the only story I can think of, so be quiet. It's called "They Both Die in the End." It's about two guys named Mateo and Rufus who both find out that they're living their last day.
-Wait, how do they even find that out?
-In this story, people found a way to know your death date and when it's your time within 24 hours you get a call, it's called Death-Cast.
-Makes sense. Imagine if that was real.
-Anyways, Mateo and Rufus both at first have different things they do. after they get the call. Mateo immediately cleans his house for his father. if he was to ever wake from his coma and co—
-Why is his dad in a coma?
-I think he fell off and ladder or had a stroke I'm not sure my memory isn't the best , but anyway Mateo still isn't sure if he really is going to die that day.
-Why? Is the science behind Death-Cast not accurate? Do they know how they die?
-No, it is, but when Mateo got his call the women had asked for a Timothy, not Mateo. The woman was a little off because Timothy had given her a hard time, but she was supposed to tell Mateo his life would end that day and they aren't allowed to tell that much information, you know so they can't avoid it. Anyways, Rufus went back to his group home and planned his own funeral with his good friends and ex. Both boys decide to sign up for an app called Last Friend since they had no one to spend their last day with. They meet and decide to spend the day together despite their huge differences, like the fact that Rufus is running from the police which I'll talk more about tomorrow. I gotta go.
-Dude, you can't end it like that! What the hell, man? Why is he running from the cops?! Did he kill someone or something?
-I gotta go, you'll call back tomorrow.
-What? How could you possibly know that?
-You've called here every day for no reason, now you have a good reason.
-I ORDERED food, dawg! It ain't even here yet and it's been like half-an-hour!
-Shit, I forgot, Yo Riko can you do this last delivery . . . please? For me? Thank you, your order will be there in 12 minutes. Bye.
-Bye.
