Capítulo 5: A Split Of a Split Second
'Zeko notices Oumad being alone behind them, goes back and lays his hand on Oumad's shoulders..' "U seem pretty worried, what is it?"
Oumad, "It's nothing much, i was thinking of how it's been some time we haven't all met and i got lost in my thoughts."
Zeko, "Yeah man i feel you, you're still living in the forest by the way?"
Oumad, "Yes, there is no other place that can contain me other than my mother nature."
Zeko, "You're lucky that you're away from all these buildings and toxicity..."
'They both carried on in their conversation and later joined the group...Until they arrived to their destination. all of them enterred the coffee and there sits Iscariot and Miguel.'
*They all greet each other passionately and got arround a big table.*
Iscariot, "So how's life my dear friend? i cannot express how much i missed your company!"
Herald, "It's fine, nothing too fun, but stable nonetheless so no complains.
It sure lacked the grace of your presence."
'Iscariot is Herald's loveliest friend if you may say, he's the nicest of all of them and never attacked or got in a conflict with him or other members.
Aging 28 years old, he's the oldest and biggest of them all.
A bit overweight but tries his best to reduce it, he looks now significantly better than when he first knew them.'
Iscariot replies while tapping Herald's back, "The same here my brother."
Herald, "How about you Miguel, you're still the nihilistic "i believe in science" type of guy aren't you?
Miguel, "Well you say that as if you're expecting it to change."
Herald, " I do, that path has an end no matter how long it is."
Miguel, "I do not speak that language, and it is serving me well til this point.
You may have to reconsider your opinion about that path."
Herald, "You know i wish you nothing but good, so it is not my point."
Miguel, "I know i know man. Did you see how Lebron james Jr played last night though?"
Herald, "Actually no, ive been quite busy last night and i feel ashamed for not knowing, tell me about it.."
'Miguel is the most logical and concrete of all the group, him and Herald always used to go back and forth about the metaphysicial. Miguel is the tallest one, aging 24years old.
'Herald and Miguel both love watching the NBA since the hay days of the group chat. and always agreed when it became to that. The more they talked about it the closer they got to each other somehow. It is to be mentionned that he's the last person to ever join the group, back in November 2018.'
'All of them interracted with each other, talking about what have they done in the past few months they haven't met, Inoush told Herald all her stories, Aylal and Zeko arguing with each other as they did the whole 8 past years, Oumad and Yussein talking about their business on the internet, Merry recomending music to Miguel and Iscariot expressing his eternal need of a lovely tall girlfriend to complete his life.'
Iscariot, "...The hunt never stops, i came close one time though"
Herald, " Oh really? why didn't it work then?"
Iscariot, "She suddenly stopped replying, and i didn't want to bother. It turned out her father died and i was completely ashamed for not being there with her, i expressed my condolecences but i had no face to ask for anything after that."
Herald, "Damn man, that is tough...It isn't your mistake i assure you that. Fate had other plans."
Leon, "Yeah, well ehum. I GOT AN ANNOUCEMENT TO MAKE EVERYBODY!!"
*Everybody got silent*
Leon laughs awkwardly and declares, "Long story short, a man isnt single no more."
Yussein, "WHAT???"
*Aylal and Zeko laughs as soon as hearing those words*
"You kidding right!!??"
Leon, "Hey be respectful you cunt, i am serious."
Oumad, "Damn congrats man, who's the old lady? (referring that Leon has been single for so long that the one waiting for him aged old at this point)"
Leon, "Leave my woman alone brothers!! I cannot trust all of you snakes Hssssssss"
Herald, "Damn i cannot believe this.. But you look serious so it must be true, i never even prepared myself for this moment. I am truly happy for you fucker!!"
Leon, smiling so widely, "Thanks thanks, it was about damn time"
'Everybody got up and congratulated Leon for this major news, it seems like a big deal because it has been literally more than 8 years of him being single. So this is his big day for sure and he deserves such ovation.
after hours of talking and laughing, it is 7pm.'
Leon, "Hey Herald, how about you go get me a cigarette from outside, i havent smoked the whole day"
Herald, "No, it's literally almost 6 years that ive been constantly saying No to such request.
You're the only one that hasn't yet quit smoking and it shows man!"
'Herald hates smoking and any kind of drug or product that can harm health, he for the past 8years preached about this, and even if sometimes he looks annoying and repetetive. He hasn't stopped. He feels its his duty.'
Leon, "Well am trying hard this time, like i said i havent smoked all day but alright let me go out to buy some other thing."
Herald, "Hmmmm, some other thing? or a cigarette"
Leon laughs and says, "No no, some other thing. hehehehe..."
Herald didnt believe him, Leon is known for this kind of behavior.
And only then, he remembered that he has now the ability to see 5 minutes into the future.
He hesitated at first but then decided to use it on Leon, by focusing his eye sight as much as possible on him.
Herald succeeded at blocking his eye sight from catching the others, so now it is known for him that he can actually control who he wants to see by his third eye.
'While looking into leon's screen...
He saw something horrific, something that he wished he had never ever seen....
He could not make any reaction to not confuse the others arround him, but inside of his mind. He lost it...
Herald grabbed his face and lowered it down to the ground, to hide his shocked... scared and terrified face expression!! And to hide his halting, his heart was beating so quickly it could be heard by others next to him...
Then he reminded himself that it is no time for such cowardly acts, he has to do something...
He looked up and quickly headed towards Leon,
Oumad noticed and again, had a thoughtful look in his face...
Herald stops Leon by grabbing him and said, "LEON!!! Wait..."
Leon, "Whats the matter?... You didnt believe me right?"
Herald, "No i didnt.....", Herald stops and realizes its the exact same conversation he saw in the screen...
Herald, talking in his head, "...IMPOSSIBLE??? How? i clearly changed the circumstances by going towards him and talking, how is it the same thing still?
Leon replies while Herald is analysing the messed up situation he's in,
"I knew you wouldnt, and to be frank i was going to buy a cigarette but now you've caught me i swear i'll buy something else."
Herald, lost track of everything.. But responds unwillingly!! "Alright, now we're good."
Herald, talking in his head again "WHAT??? WHAT THE FUCK AM I SAYING?"
"NO WE ARE NOT GOOD!!! I SHOULDNT LET HIM GET OUT... HE IS GOING TO DIE!!!!"
Herald, shouts uncontrolably "STOP!!! Dont go out Leon, give me the money i'll buy whatever you want."
Leon, with a confused look on his face, "Yo what's with this agressive hospitality bro?
No it's fine i'll go out myself just sit and relax man."
'Herald, doesnt even answer this time, this is the exact same conversation he saw in the screen.
It seemed as if looking at the horrible accident Leon had has made him forget momentarely the things he saw before that took action, it affected his short term memory.
By re-creating those images uncontrollably in real life, he finally remembers that they're the exact same things he saw in the fate revealer screen.
This dilemna has left Herald standing so helpless, so broken...
During this time that Herald is reflecting on this overwhelming fact, Leon is getting closer and closer towards his death....
Leon while walking says to himself, "What's wrong with this boi being all nice and caring and shit as always, he doesnt change..
"Fuck, i missed him, and all the gang, this day is great."
"Seriously though, i should stop smoking..."
'While Leon is having this heartful monologue, he carelessly crosses the road...
Herald walks up outside the coffee like a dead man...
Knowing well what will happen has made no other choice harder in his life than to lift his head and observe...his loved one.
Dying....
*A fast black car, running by the speed of light..approaches Leon directly...*
*The light flashes upon Leon's eyes.*
It is said that when dying, a bright flashing light appears and plays a flashback of all the important moments u lived in a split second.
in the case of Leon, that was so far from true. The only thing he thought about in the split of a split second he had realised was left in his life, was nothing other than his parents, and how he never could take care of them as they did to him...
He had hoped to make them proud one day.
In that split of a split second, a tear fell down from his eye, and before it could reach his round cheeks... Before making any kind of expression....
*the crashing sound of the vehicle and Leon's body was heard so loud all over the place*
The conspiracy of fate took its place....
Herald, watching the scene so clearly, didnt just shed a tear.
By the time he got close to Leon's detached body, his face was soaking wet. and his tongue couldnt even move,
I mean...
What else could he say...
