Ice cubes

Ice cube

"Dude, i think this is the end of the line for me..." A man said silently on a hospital bed. It was cold... "Looks like it..." Another man stands next to the bed, Holding onto his hand. "Remember ice cubes?" "Yeah..." The man standing next to him holds out a small ice cube, it was pretty and cool. It's as if it was the perfect ice cube. "The good old days huh?" The two men, silently in the hospital, chatted in one of their final moments.

"Hey Berg! Look" A small child comes running over to another boy holding something, it looks wet..."What is it Berg?" the other small child asked. "I think it's called an ice cube!" The child holds out a small ice cube. "It is really cold!" The child hands the ice cube to Glaze. "Oh. This is so cool Berg!" Glaze holds out the ice cube in his arm. It's cool and slippery, He starts playing with it." Where did you find it?" Glaze curiously asked. "You just put water in the fridge!" Berg said as if he discovered a new invention. "This is so cool!" The two kids just played with the ice cube until it melted..

"Wait, it disappeared!" The ice cube had completely melted within the children's arm. "Whoa, it's like magic!" the two kids look at the puddle of water in shock. "Want to get another?" Berg said "Really? okay!" Glaze replied. The two kids then rushed back to Berg's home.

After "discovering" Ice Cubes, They started playing with it everything. It was like magic to them, something that's cold and wet, and can disappear with time.

"Hey look!" Berg comes over to Glaze's house with a bag. They both sadly now have less time together because of elementary school, but they still come over to each other's house very often. "What did you get?" Glaze comes to the door, seeing the bag. "Is it ice cubes?" Glaze's eyes light up. "Yup, time to be cool!" "Yay!" They both quickly walk into the living room.

"I'm going to get some drinks." Glaze rushes into the kitchen after settling the ice bag. Berg had already started playing with it "So cool..." Berg just keeps slipping the ice cubes around the table. "Got lemonade!" Glaze came back with two glasses of lemonade. "Cool!" They both sat down and put ice cubes into the glass. "Cheers to ice cubes." "Cheers to ice cubes" And they both took a sip of the lemonade.

"Aw, it's all water now..." The ice had completely melted in their drinks. "Hey, is there a way to make the ice stay longer?"

"Hey bro, you got ice cubes? They are now in middle school and it seems as if glaze is going to get a heat stroke at any time. "Yeah, here" Berg took out a small portable freezer bag and took out some ice cubes. "Ah~" Glaze quickly grabbed it and started wiping his face with it. "Ice cubes are still amazing huh?" "Yeah" Berg started doing the same." I guess the trouble of getting the freezer all paid off." "Yeah, seems like the man who sold it was really in the heat as well." "Maybe we can start an ice cube company." "Yeah right." They both laughed with their ice cubes in hand.

"Looks, i'm sorry.." Glaze said while holding out an ice cube. "I told you to not eat the last slice of pizza." Berg seems somewhat angry. "I told you I'm sorry man..;" Glaze looked down. "Arg, fine, I forgive you" Berg took the ice cube from glaze's hand and started whipping his face again. "Just don't do it again." Berg said smiling. Glaze smiles back.

"Dude look! I got a job at the ice company!" Berg comes over to glaze. "Wait really?" Glaze looked at the letter. And it seems that Berg was accepted at the "ice company". "You have to do it too okay?" Berg encourages glaze, and hands him a nice looking ice cube. "Yeah!" Glazes took it, and got ready for his interview for the same company.

"Glaze look at this!" Berg shouted at glaze, "Did you discover anything?" Yeah, look at this! Berg holds up an ice cube. "And?" Watch. Glaze stares at the ice cubes for a minute or two in complete silence, nothing moved, nothing changed. until he speaks up "So what? Nothing happened." "Exactly, it didn't melt one bit" Realizing that, glaze looked at the ice cube again, and didn't see any water on it. He was taken back. "This could be huge, good job berg!" They both started to research on the unmelting ice cube. "This is amazing..."

"Are you sure this is safe?" Berg looks somewhat in fear at glaze. "Don't worry, it's in a sealed room, we can just run out and close the door. " They were getting ready to do an experiment on the ice. "Okay, i trust you.." And they both head inside.

"RUN!" The experiment went wrong, the ice instead of melting, started spitting out toxic smoke. "BERG!" Glaze tries to keep the door open, but the door slowly shuts tight, leaving Berg inside the toxic room. "BERG,TAKE COVER." Glaze immediately starts looking for the control panel. Berg was already starting to slowly lose strength.

"BERG!" He was lying on the floor unconscious, but he is still breathing. The toxic gas had already been vented and now glaze is sitting down next to berg. And quickly make the hospital call." Hello, this is..." Berg was in critical health.

After the flash back, Berg coughs silently on the bed. The toxic gas was able to completely ruin his organs. And he doesn't have much longer to hold on. "Thanks for being with me. Glaze.." Glaze just sits there. Feeling as if it was his fault. "Don't worry, I thought you finished the experiment a day ago right?" "Yeah..." Glaze took out a piece of ice cube. It's cold and slippery, but it isn't melting. "We really are tied to ice cubes are we..." Berg's voice slowly faded out. "Thank you for everything.." Glaze held out the ice cube to Berg, and Berg took the ice cube.

"I may have melted in the world, but we together will forever be Unmeltable,"

"Hey, It's been 10 years haven't it..." Glazes look up at the clear sky. He was in the park when they discovered an ice cube. "The unmelting ice became a success and everyone loved it.." Glaze started tearing up. He memories of Berg started rushing back. "I called it Berg ice, since it was you who even discovered it after all..." Just like how he discovered ice cubes for him. "It was fun being ith you, you taught me so much."

" Here " Glaze holds up one of the Berg ice. "This was the final ice cube you held. It never melted." Glaze looked up into the night, it was quiet and clear. "We will never melt, just like this ice cube. Because our lives are linked to this ice" Glaze started laughing. "Thanks for everything bro..." And he slowly walks back home, holding onto the Berg ice
