i sight, locking my apartment door as i step in, immediately feeling the cold breeze. i took my coat off, putting it in the wardrobe, and walked to the kitchen.

i took out a cup and filled it with water, i drank it in a few seconds and after that i put it away. i was completely exhausted from work, i just want to lay on bed and never woke up again.

"lulu!" i yelled, peeking through the corridor trying to see if she would come, after a few seconds, she came running towards me. "that's my girl." i added, kneeling at the same level as her and running my hand through my dog's beige fur.

i got up and opened a drawer, taking out some dog food. lulu excitedly followed me to the living room, where i filled her bowl with some food, she licked my hand and ate some dog food.

i sat on the couch, pulling my head backwards in pleasure as i felt the cold material of the couch touch my warm skin. i looked around the house, i was proud of myself. i didn't even know if i would make it past the twenty's and here i am.

i looked up at a specific picture, his picture, a picture of me and louis kissing, i remember that day as if it was yesterday, a trip we made to italy with a few of our friends, crazy to say that i still talk to some of them. and actually there wasn't only that one, my house was filled with our pictures, and pictures of me and my friends.

i slightly smiled, feeling a tear race down my cheek, knowing that those were probably the best years of my entire life, and i don't regret any second i passed with him. actually i would have lived it twice if i could.

memories came back floating as i reached a specific picture, it was a polaroid picture, in my birthday, louis brought me this little camera so we could fill my white blank wall. when i moved i lost alot of them, but i still have this one, louis was playing with lily's dog, me being me, i of course took my camera with me whenever i went, i took it out of my tote bag and took a picture of him, smiling with the dog on his lap.

he always had this soft side for dogs, he always wanted one, that's why i have my girl, lulu. even if it hurts, she constantly reminds me of him, maybe because i named her after him, only as a nickname, or probably because he told me he wanted a dog, probably not this tipe of dog but i still like to imagine that.

i ran a hand through my hair, wiping my tears away as i felt the presence of lulu on my lap. "so lovely today, huh?" i whispered, joking as i ran my hand multiple times through her cold fur. she tried to lick me and i backed away, slightly laughing.

then i had an idea. i took lulu of my lap and ran to my bedroom, hearing her footsteps after me. i took out this big, full book from my drawer. "summer 2017." i read, passing my fingers through the homemade letters that me and millie had done. during the trip in italy, we got to a moment where we were incredibly bored and it was very hot. so me and millie brought a book and glued pictures of our summer in it, as a memorie.

i opened the first page, revealing an happy me and lily, a few pictures were glued in the page, written 'my lily' on top of it. just to think about it, we used to be so close. we did everything together, in college we even shared a room. i smiled, remembering all the crazy things we did together.

on the other page was me and millie, another pack of pictures glued to the page, i laughed as i remembered how excited i was to first meet her, it is cringe now just to think about it. she was always so supportive towards me, she helped me with all my decisions and problems. 'mills<3' was written on the top of all the pictures, she was the one who wanted to write it.
