I stood on the wooden porch, crying. My parents were loading the last of our boxes onto the moving truck.
"Promise," he leaned in, "you'll never forget me."
"I promise." I sobbed. I leaned my head on his chest, he wrapped his arms around my waist, hugging me tight.

"Let's go, Sidney." My parents called out from the other side of the road.
"Goodbye, Rio." I whispered. I turned around, hurried across the road and climbed into the huge truck.
"I love you." I heard him call out after me. The truck drove off, and I never looked back to see his beautiful face one last time.
