why need friends

INT. APARTMENT - DAY

We see JASON, a 25-year-old man, sitting on his couch, staring blankly at the TV. His phone vibrates on the coffee table and he picks it up.

JASON

Hello?

FRIEND (V.O.)

Hey man, what's up?

JASON

Not much, just bored out of my mind. You?

FRIEND (V.O.)

Same here. I was thinking we could hang out.

JASON

Sure, sounds good. What do you want to do?

FRIEND (V.O.)

How about we grab some lunch and catch up? It's been a while since we've hung out.

JASON

That sounds great. Where do you want to meet?

FRIEND (V.O.)

How about that new burger place on Main Street?

JASON

Perfect. I'll meet you there in an hour.

FRIEND (V.O.)

See you then.

Jason hangs up the phone and springs into action. He quickly gets dressed and heads out the door.

CUT TO:

INT. BURGER PLACE - DAY

Jason walks into the burger place and spots his friend, JARED, sitting at a booth. Jared stands up and greets him with a hug.

JARED

Hey man, good to see you!

JASON

Yeah, it's been too long.

They sit down and order their food.

JASON

So, what's new with you?

JARED

Not much, just working a lot. How about you?

JASON

Same here. I feel like I'm stuck in a rut.

JARED

I know what you mean. Sometimes I feel like I'm just going through the motions.

JASON

Yeah, it's tough. I'm trying to find ways to break out of it, but it's not easy.

JARED

Have you thought about trying something new? Like a new hobby or activity?

JASON

Actually, yeah. I've been thinking about taking up painting.

JARED

That's awesome! You should totally do it.

JASON

I don't know. I feel like I'm not creative enough.

JARED

Nonsense. Anyone can paint. It's all about expressing yourself and having fun.

JASON

You're right. I think I'll give it a shot.

JARED

That's the spirit. And hey, if you ever want some company, I'm always up for trying new things.

JASON

Thanks, man. I appreciate it.

They finish their meal and pay the bill.

JASON

So, what do you want to do now?

JARED

How about we go for a walk in the park? It's a beautiful day out.

JASON

Sounds good to me.

CUT TO:

EXT. PARK - DAY

Jason and Jared are strolling through the park, enjoying the sunshine.

JASON

Thanks for coming out today. I really needed this.

JARED

Of course, man. That's what friends are for.

JASON

I feel like I take our friendship for granted sometimes. You're always there for me, even when I don't deserve it.

JARED

Don't be silly. We've been friends for years. We've been through thick and thin together.

JASON

Yeah, I guess you're right.

They come to a stop by a pond and watch the ducks swimming.

JASON

You know, I don't think I've ever told you this, but you're like a brother to me.

JARED

(smiling)

I feel the same way, man.

JASON

I don't know what I'd do without you.

JARED

(squeezing Jason's shoulder)

You'll never have to find out....

friend like a supporting system when we need help they do our help like a brother ...

some times we figth with our family when our friends listen our problems the can give solution also .....
