Beyond the Constellation

Memories

I observed an old picture my mom just handed to me.

8 years ago

Today's my birthday, and the air is buzzing with excitement! The sun is shining, birds are chirping, and there's this magical aura around everything.

I can't help but feel like the luckiest kid alive. Mom greeted me with a big smile and pancakes shaped like dinosaurs. Dad gave me a high-five and a mysterious-looking gift wrapped in shiny paper.

At school, my friends surprised me with a birthday card signed by everyone, and Mrs. Allen even let me be the line leader for the day. But the best part?

Celeste, my best friend

She is like the sun in my world, always bringing warmth and brightness to every day. When we're together, it's like there's this invisible force field of happiness surrounding us. She's the kind of friend who makes everything better, and I can't help but smile a little brighter when she's around.

She's not just my best friend; she's my partner in laughter, my co-conspirator in mischief, and the one who understands my secrets without me saying a word.

Whether it's sharing snacks during lunch or teaming up for class projects, Celeste makes everything more fun. Her jokes can turn the gloomiest day into a burst of giggles, and her kindness is like a comforting hug for my heart.

There's this magical connection between us that makes even the simplest moments extraordinary. When we explore the playground or trade Pokémon cards, it feels like we're on a grand adventure together.

Celeste has this way of turning ordinary days into something special, and I'm grateful for every second we spend as buddies.

She means the world to me, and I can't imagine my life without her. It's like having a superhero who's always there to save the day with a smile. She listens when I'm sad, celebrates when I'm happy, and makes every day brighter just by being in it.

Celeste is not just a friend; she's the secret ingredient that makes my world feel complete.

I planned the most Epic Day together. We laughed and giggled like crazy during recess, sharing secrets only best friends can have.

Then came lunchtime. Celeste and I sat at our usual spot in the cafeteria, and she handed me a gift with a grin that promised something awesome inside. Unwrapping it, I found a cool comic book - the exact one I'd been eyeing for weeks! She knew me so well. We exchanged stories and jokes, and I felt like I was on cloud nine.

Later in the afternoon, our teacher surprised us with cupcakes topped with rainbow sprinkles, and the whole class sang 'Happy Birthday' to me.

I blew out the candles, making a wish that this happiness would last forever.

As the school day ended, Celeste and I decided to have a mini adventure at the park. We swung on the swings, raced down the slides, and even had a friendly competition on the monkey bars. The laughter echoed through the air, and it felt like time slowed down just for us.
