It all started 10 years ago.

-
When I was younger٫ around 8 years old٫ I knew a boy. I cant quite remember his name٫ but all I remember were his pretty eyes, that glowed in the sunlight٫ and his smile that always lightened up my day. You might say I was too young to know what love is٫ but I knew for sure that I loved him.

I remember the first day we met. I was excited. we had new neighbors٫ who were apparently my age. I could finally have people to play with. The moving truck came٫ giggles of children could be heared from miles away. It was exciting. New.

I knocked on their door.
A small boy could be seen through the peep hole٫ he looked no younger than me.
"Hello?" said the boy.
"Hi! im your new neighbor! I was wondering if you wanted to hang out!"
The door unlocked. There stood the most beautiful boy I had ever seen.
"Really?? I would love too!"

(4 years later.)

We became inseparable ever since that day. Whenever we were together٫ all you could hear was laughter and joy. That went on for years. He was a brother I never had.

"yeonjun! Look what i got us!" the small boy said as he came running towards me.
"what is it?" i replied excitedly.
"i got us maching necklaces! Look, it has a picture of us inside." he opened the heartshaped locket, revealing a picture of me and him. For my birthday that same year i got gifted a digital camera. Something i had always wanted. Me and him decided to head to our usual spot. An oak tree overlooking the cityscape. Thats when we took the photo that was placed inside the necklace. It was a memory i always held dear to me. I was so glad he picked that one.
"thank you so much. I love them." i said sincerely.

I still vividly remember the days me and him would spend running through those fields. The wind blowing through our hair and the dewy spring grass making our clothes slightly wet. It was perfect.

I was laying on my bed, looking out my window. It was raining heavily. I love the rain. No matter how rough it gets I still somehow find it relaxing. I found myself wondering what my life would be like without him. my bestfriend
"yeonjun!" I heard a loud voice shouting my name. I could tell instantly who it was٫ but this time the voice seemed different٫ almost panicky.
My door swinged open my best friend stood there٫ tears running down his face.
"Oh my god٫ are you ok? what happend?" I said as I ran to him٫ cupping his cheeks.
"Y-yeonjun..." He broke down even more٫ his voice cracking from the tears.
"Shh..shh...calm down. Everything's gonna be ok٫ tell me what happend." I rub his back٫ trying to help relax the crying boy. He still looked gorgeous٫ even when he was like this.. he was like a fallen angle. His eyes glistening from the tears٫ nose red٫ hair messy.
"M-my parents.. They're moving away from here....we wont be able to see each other again."

I was shocked٫ I couldn't get the words out. My best friend for 4 years would be moving away٫ somewhere where I couldn't even see him. My comfort person٫ my soulmate.

"Are...are you telling the truth? Please tell me your not." I felt tears welling up in my eyes. This cant be true.
"Yes yeonjun. Im sorry. Its not my fault... i-i tried begging for them to let me stay٫ but they wouldn't budge on the idea." He said.
I pulled him into a tight hug. Our last one. We both cried٫ tears staining each others shoulders.
That was the last time I saw him. Soon him and his family moved away. I wont forget about him٫ ever. I love him.
