     He is a great man who lives in a country side. He is living his perfect life with his wife on his side, having a lovely fat cat, one grand daughter, one grand son and a field with apple trees. He always makes time for his family and his apple trees in the backyard. His name is Dwayne. Jessica is his wife.
     "Didn't I put my coat here?" says Dwayne as he confusedly looking for his fur brown coat that happened to be missing when he needs it.
     "You didn't put it here, Dwayne" Audrey walks to the kitchen and grabs something above the refrigerator. "You put it here, Dwayne" as she walks closer to Dwayne, bringing a red colored hat.
     "Thank you" Dwayne smiles sincerely as he grabs his hat and put it on his head. "I'm going to see my apples" Dwayne walks away to his backyard.

     "Grandma, what happen?" a young teenage girl voice shouted from a far. She is Lily, her grand daughter. Lily looks concerned when she saw her grandmother's eyes that looking to the backyard as she feels empty.
        "Why all of sudden, you startled me"
