It's the morning of our last day at camp. 

I still can't get the words he whispered into my ear last night.

All the girls in my company are packing. I try to shove all my stuff back in my suitcase, the way it was from Monday. 

We have one last meeting with our small groups. We're all sad that we won't be able to see each other anymore. 

"At least we'll keep in touch on social media!" says one girl.
We all agree. 

"I'm going to miss you all" says our counselor. Tears well up in her eyes, and they trickle down her face.

The girls whimper, and we all stand up surrounding her hugging her from every angle. 

"It's time to go," she says. 

I don't really like the idea that we're separating. 

We arrive at the big hall, with everyone crowded with their luggage. The girls were eager to find the boys in our company to say one last goodbye. 

There they are. Walking towards us. As they get nearer and nearer, the girls couldn't hold in their tears any longer. Probably because we all live in all parts of our country. I'm sad that we won't be able to see each other, but I also want to go home. I have a family that's waiting for me, to do all the chores. 😔

As everyone walks around, giving last hugs, I see him. Standing beside his luggage. I walk towards him, in my batman wanzi pyjamas. 

"Hey! you alright?" I ask
"Yeah, just deep in thought,"  he responded.

I nod my head. There's awkward silence between us. 

"You have my  @ right?" I asked.
"Yup, I do," he responds.

"Well message me, when you get home. Safe travels," I said, with a smile. 
He nods, looking away shyly. 

"I'll be going then, I have to wait with all the other people I came with on Monday," I stated. As I grab my suitcase, dragging it a long with me, I hear my name. 

"TU! WAIT!"

I turn around, and I see him running towards me. 
He stops in front of me, and says "I hope to see you again," I have no words. I just nod.
"One day, you'll be mine."  

(NOTE: He ligit said that )

I don't know what to say to that, so I just nod. But I find myself burning from what he said. 

"We'll see each other again. I know that for sure," I exclaimed. 
He awkwardly asks for a hug. I can't stop myself from laughing at the way he asked. He was so shy, and embarrassed.  It almost seemed like he was a little child apologizing to his mother for something he did. 

We hugged each other. 

The last time we would ever see each other again.
