Dark clouds loom above as I play with the bottle of iced tea in my hand. Its icy surface leaves a cold feeling—
Just like when I first held her hand.
Everything about this drink, and me walking around here is just refreshing and nostalgic. It takes me back to the summer I first saw her.
The summer of 20XX.
It feels like it was forever ago. A lot has happened since then, and time has already caught up with me.
It is only a matter of time before we meet again, but...
If I could go back to that summer, If I could relive it, I'd gladly do so.
The wind becomes gentle with every blow, and I slowly close my eyes, listening as the chirping of birds fades from far away.
