We were close friends since the day we start school in 2002. Disturbing our classmates and the teachers is our job and we are well known for it. Most of the time we spent our lesson outside the teachers’ office doing punishment for disrupting the class. That was the sweetest moment for us for the past four years and we stop doing that when the major exams come. There was no room for us to play that moment.
During that crucial period, we will meet up and study together. One of us named Hamizan almost gave up but the rest of us encouraged him not to give up easily. After the last paper, the four of us organized an outing. We suggested spending the next two days at the beach. Aim to cherish the last moment together.
So we did cycling at the eastern part of Singapore. We love to cycle and almost could not find out way back to the beach. When we were cycling, we found out that Hamizan was left behind and we were way too front of him. So we waited for him. While checking his handphone, there is a speeding car came out of nowhere and made a sharp turn, it collided with Hamizan without him knowing that it came from behind.
He was thrown a few feet up in the air before landing. By the time we reached there, blood began to ooze out from his head, nose and much blood and we cannot do anything but to wait for the paramedics to arrive.
We just kept telling him to hang in there knowing that he still could hear us and we do not want him to give up fighting to live again. All he can do was to take short sharp breath. When the paramedics arrived, he took one last breath and left peacefully. The paramedics pronounced him dead at the scene.
We had lost a close friend who really cares for us. He is the one who will bring joy and laughter to the class and to us by cracking jokes and doing odd things.
We became aimless since the day he left us. No more outing, which we will use to do during our free time. Usually he is the one who will give suggestions for the outing. But we remembered what he usually do, was not to give up easily. That embraced us together and got back to our normal lives again. No matter what happens we will still remember you and your stupid jokes and acts.

While your story has elements of tragedy, it does not quite fit into Aristotle’s Greek Tragedy structure. You must take one main character and use him to explain how his life changed from having everything to nothing.
