[ WP ] People can donate their life span to others , a couple of hours or all of their remaining time , as much as they wish . One day on your way back from work various people crowd around you , only to drop dead as you feel your life span increasing .

The bar was directly around the corner, and Dean hastened his steps, eager to leave all the dead bodies behind. Ever since getting off work, people had started dying around him, giving all their life energy away. Out of a full subway car, only three people left, as stunned as Dean. 
 
 At the subway station, it was the same. People hugged each other, with tears in their eyes, then gave their lifeforce to some passing stranger. He knew. He'd been on the receiving end too many times now. He was looking at what must now be several centuries to live. 
 
 Dean needed a drink. In fact, he needed to get so drunk he did n't wake up again until two days later. He headed for the `` Nine-Ball'', a bar he sometimes visited. On the sidewalk, a mother and child approached him. 
 
 He screamed at them, `` No! Do n't!'' 
 
 But there was nothing he could do. The mother, and her child, both withered away before his eyes, and he felt a surge of energy that twisted his insides into knots. He bent over, heaves wracking his body, and he was violently sick against the next building's wall. 
 
 Terrified and disgusted, he stumbled on ahead, towards the bar, towards salvation, towards oblivion. 
 
 He should have known better. The bar was n't empty, really, but apart from Dean, the barkeeper was the only person left alive. Several tables were draped with slumped-over figures, and more than one was on the floor in front of the bar. 
 
 The barkeeper looked at him with a mixture of dread and unending relief, as he, too, gave his lifeforce to Dean. Dropping to his knees, his vision blurry by now, he turned towards the TV screen at the back of the bar. The sound was muted, but a news anchor was apparently talking, and a big banner in the background proclaimed, `` Donald Trump elected president of the USA.''
