Bucky is ill since when he was a kid; now he is tired of everything and only wants to die.
Can a ride on the bus make him change his mind?
Who is that guy that he met? What is he hiding?

When I woke up I understood that I was at the hospital by the smell.
I slowly opened my eyes and I saw my mum sat next to me.
-Oh my God!- she said crying -You are still here-.
I took her hand with mine, smiling weakly.
I also realized that I had an annoying thing in my nose. I was about to remove it but my mum stopped.
-No!- she said -The doctor said that you can't breathe alone anymore, you'll need oxygen-.
I sighed and nodded.
-Also, there is a guy outside, he caller the ambulance. He said you were having a coffee with him when you stopped breathing- my mum said.
-Is he... Is he here?- I asked.
-Yes, I go call him- she said and left.
A few moments later Steve appeared.
-Hi... I am glad to see you are good- he said.
-How can I be good? Look at me!- I said.
-Why didn't you tell me that you want to die?- he asked.
I stopped and looked up: he was sad, I could see that.
-I am ill since when I was a kid and there is no way for me to heal. I am tired of fighting- I said.
-But... You have to try at least!- he said.
-I already did! I did for the last 24 years! And nothing happened! I don't want more useless hope- I said and then I realized I was yelling -I'm sorry, I didn't want...-.
-No it's ok, this is not my business!- he said and sat on the chair next to the bed -But at least allow me to make these last months of life the best you have ever had-.
I smiled and nodded.

-Who was that guy?- my mum asked while we were in the car, driving home.
-His name is Steve. I met him on the bus, he is nice- I said.
-I see... I am happy that you finally have a friend-.
I smiled; she was right, because of my illness basically no one wanted to be my friend.
