A young man who seems to be in his mid-20s enters a bar wearing a formal black suit with a small bag on his back. He wore a sad expression on his face as entered the bar. He silently went to a corner seat at the bar table. He keeps his head low staring at the floor he put his bag onto a seat next to him.
The bartender looks at him with a kind look. He was already used to this kind of behavior, the bartender was an old man with white hair complementary to his kind and gentle look that gives vibes of a harmless grandpa.
He looks at the young man and asks him, "Did you get rejected again?" to which he only gets a frustrated grunt with a nod. He shakes his head at the young man's ethics "So regular or anything new?"
"Just get me regular with extra vodka and ice," the young man said.

"Ben, tell me when will I get a proper job".
"it was 3rd rejection this week and its only Wednesday"
Ben, the bartender looks at the young man babbling about his interview rejections again and again, it was a regular thing for this young man to come here and babble about his rejection, It was a regular thing for him for the last 6 months. he comes here gets drunk and cries.
"Don't worry young man you will find a suitable job for yourself, and you already have a part-time job plus if you drink like this you will make your sister worry even more" Ben try to console him and remind him of his sister.
His sister comes here to take him home after he got way too much drunk so that's why Ben knows her, She had told him to inform her if he gets drunk.
Currently, the young man was working part-time as a waiter in a hotel although it's not that bad still he wants a proper job for his sisters and himself. "I want to earn money so my sisters can live properly"
While they were talking about his sister, his phone rang. It was his big sister calling him, "Aiden, what are you doing right now? Why didn't you go to Ava's graduation ceremony? You know she wanted you to attend it so much." Her angry voice came from the phone startling the young man. He got sober hearing his sister's angry voice.
He checks the calendar on his phone and sees it was his little sister's graduation ceremony today which he missed.
"Ohh shit, I am so sorry, I forgot about it I had 2 interviews today and I got rejected so it slipped through my mind, where is she right now?" Aiden explains what happened but didn't tell her about the bar and asks about his little sister.
"She is inside her room locked up and not listening to me," Big Sister told him about their little sister.
"I will come home right away and talk to her and also ask for her forgiveness myself." He disconnects the call.
"Damn I forget about it" He curses himself.
Ben looks at him and says "Why don't give her some gift when you ask for forgiveness?" Since he also heard what happened he gave him some advice.
Aiden thoughts about it for some seconds "I will, thanks for the advice" He stands up and picks up his bag.
He looks at Ben "Put the bill on my tab I will pay next time" and he runs out of the bar without waiting for his reply, he was a regular so it's common.
After leaving Bar, He looks around thinking about what to gift his sister after walking for some time he saw a bakery and decides to buy a cake.
He went inside the bakery, looking at the cakes on display he brought Ava's favorite cake and request to write 'I am so sorry, Please forgive me' on it. The guy on the counter gave him a pitiful look and write what Aiden requested, he also added a heart and gave him the cake "Give her some flowers too, it will help".
Aiden looks at him and thanks him while paying.
When he left the bakery, In a few mins suddenly it starts raining making his clothes wet. "Damn my rotten luck, What a bad day" He cursed his luck.
Then he looks for a gift shop to buy a present for his sister for her graduation. He saw one near the bakery and enter there and buy a present for her. And wait for the rain to slow down before coming out of the shop.
He walks out of the Shop after it Stop raining with two bags in his hand and he uses his free hand to call Ava, after 2 rings she picks it "What do you want?" she said in a furious but sad voice.
"Ava whe.." Before he can speak Ava cuts him in the middle.
"Ava? What Ava? You forget my Graduation, I was waiting for you at the entrance because you said you will come, and you still didn't. Did you know everyone's parents or family members were there?" Her voice started to crack at the end and she started to cry and cut the call before he can even say anything.
They don't have parents as mom and dad both passed away, Mom was three years ago and dad passed away when they were kids so only Aiden and his sisters are left. He and Ava were actually very close therefore he promised that he will go to her ceremony with her however he forgets and messed up.
While he was walking back home, he put his phone back into his pocket and sigh thinking about Ava and how to make it up to her.
He looks at the sky, and he can see thundering clouds "It's gonna rain again" he starts rushing towards the bus stop.
He sent some sorry messages to Ava while waiting for the bus. He heard some people screaming and he looks up from his phone.
His grip on his phone and gifts loose and they both drop to the ground, he looks at the bus coming at him at freighting speed.
His whole body froze in fear and he can't move his legs no matter how much he tries 'move, Damn it.'
'Is this how I am going to die? How will they live without me?' he thoughts about his sisters.
In a few seconds, the bus collided with his body, and he was blown away in the air with impact.
He could feel his soul leaving his body as he thought about his two sisters,' I wasn't able to say Sorry to Ava in person nor able to thank big sis Jane properly'.
He really loved both of them but he can't even do anything for them after their mom passed away. It was Jane who took care of both of them, doing 2 jobs and she even drops her plan of becoming a fashion designer for them.
Before he even noticed it, his vision suddenly started to darken slowly until he couldn't see anything but pitch black.
He wondered if he had already died, for he could feel nothing all pain from the bus crash is gone. He felt like he was in that state for eons before even being able to barely feel something.

He could also feel his body and hear the sound of a Fan in the room. He was lying on something soft, probably a bed. He wondered if he was in the hospital and was somehow saved by a doctor.
He carefully tried opening his eyes, and they opened. He could see things around him. He jump and sat on the bed in excitement then looked at his body, he didn't see any bandaids on anything on his body. He looks at his hands but they were a little different than before they are a little small not much but a difference was visible.
He looked around the room and saw he was in his own room but he could see it was a little different, it contain his old books and manga, and he can his study table in the corner which should be in Ava's room now since had given it to her
He put his hand under his pillow and pulls out a phone, he always keeps his phone under his pillow since he got his first phone. He looks at the phone, it was his old phone which he used many years ago.
He turn on the screen and immediately cover his eyes from the light in a few seconds after his eyes become used to brightness he stare at the screen as his eyes fixed on the date to be more specific the year it was showing. it says today was 19 February 2020.
But before can he thinks anything a voice rang in his mind.

I am re-writing this because I saw many mistakes in it.
Especially After my exams, I thought even if this is going to be a Smut novel with almost no logic, it should still be fun to read.
After thinking for a whole day I decided to rewrite it. I know many readers won't like it but I want to create a better story that you and I both can enjoy.
