      We've been close friends for longer than I can remember. Actually, were  close friends. Were. Now we're just... friends. Long lost, we don't even write to each other. We're not allowed to do it because we're not allowed to do anything.
I remember when we first met, I was thirteen, and you were about eleven. We were both locked into a cage in a dusty carriage, whimpering and shivering. It was cold, you hugged me to stay warm. As a chill swept through my body and I shook, you hugged tighter.
      "Stop. It's okay. I don't want to hurt you."
      I never had anyone hug me, talk to me, or even bother to look in my direction. Your attention was such an alien feeling yet I couldn't pull away.
      ". . ."
      "Are you okay? What is your name? I'm Miku."
      "Lu-L-Luka."
      "Hi Luka... I'm sorry if I scared you. I'm scared too."
      We hugged and I cried on your shoulder. It was a long, bumpy ride, and the small cage we were in was getting darker.
      Later on, we were taken out of the carriage and scary people put cloths over our faces. It got even darker. I could not see you anymore.

      Light flooded in. My head was throbbing. I was chained down. I saw you. You were across the room, also chained. I was scared for you.
      "Mi-Mi-Miiiku?" No reply.
      "She's awake." I was unchained and thrown into a wheelchair.
"Where is she?" No response. I am pushed out to a hall. So many doors. I close my eyes. Surely I will be put in the same room as her.
Right?
