May had been consuming too much sweets since she was young. June noticed that during a gathering, and got worried. May was talking with August when June asked July about it. July told him that he had warned May, but she didn’t take him seriously.

One day, the four of them met again in another gathering. Oddly, May didn’t eat any sweet on the serving table. She only drank water, and took a seat far from everyone.

June and July saw that. They approached her. “Why are you sitting here, May? Everyone is near the serving table.” June asked. May forced a smile over her nervous expression. “Also, you didn't take the sweets. You usually liked them. Is there something wrong?” July asked worriedly.

May smiled sadly. “I watched a movie about diabetes a few days ago. That aspired me to check my own health. This morning, I’ve just taken my medical checkup report. The result is not as good as I thought. When I saw the sweets, I remembered the movie. I am a little paranoid right now.”

August joined the conversation. “Didn’t I tell you to listen to July’s warning on our last gathering?” Both June and July glared at August for his cold statement.

“You will be alright. You are still healthy. You only have to watch over what you eat.” July said reassuring May.

May turned to July. She apologized sincerely. “I am so sorry that I ignored your words last time.”

“It is okay. We are friends. Friends care and support each other. I am so glad that you are aware about your health now.”

The End

Hi, I am Estyfa. I am new here. Thank you for reading Sweet and Friendship. Your comments, critics, and advice are welcomed.

This is to be found or not.

But never ever forget The Almighty.

Ashley (Ley) Blackwidow was a great sub-leader in army. She dedicated her life and mind for the nation. Her friends counted on her. Her leader trusted her. Her beloved younger brother admired her and loved her so much. Things were great...until her brother went missing. No neat paper notes, no messages, no missed calls, and no one knew where he was or where he could be.

She discharged. She went all out to find her only remaining family. She has searched for five years and nothing is found. No camera footage, no evidence, no witness, no footprint, nothing.

After looking endlessly, from with to without anyone, in whatever weather the days had to give, she faints.

Dehidration, malnutrition, overstress, and obviously, tiredness are on her medical board in the hospital. Weak, depresed, and full of regrets, she keeps calling her brother name faintly both awake and asleep (again) until something about her brother happens.

The team Ashley abandoned knows where her brother is. They offer the information with one condition.

She takes the condition fast and her face is the same as how she used to be in the field when she is ready to fight.
