Today is September 16, 2079. The day johnathan first met Chris, and Alice. The morning of this beautiful fall day started off perfect to Johnathan, he got up early around six o'clock A.M excited to start his first day of primary school at Elmer primary school.

He have waited for this day since he can remember and wants to get there as early as possible.
He can hear his mom and dad talking in the kitchen as his mother prepares breakfast for the family.

He hears his mom tell his dad
"Sweetie can you wake up johnny for me I don't want him to be late for his frist day of school." Sarah (Johnathan's mom) says, unaware that Johnathan had already gotten up all on his own.

He hears his father's foot steps as he walks up the wooden staircase. The wood stairs creaking under the pressure of his father's steps, his dad was surprised to see Johnathan fully dressed and ready to go. Johnathan had decided to wear his favorite blue and white striped shirt with some dark blue jeans, his mother picked out for him to wear, the night before. He looked sharp in his outfit.

"Wow Johnny you all ready for school. Just remember you're not like everyone else you are unique I know it, I have a feeling you will meet a lot of freinds today. Are you ready to eat breakfast?"

With that Johnathan headed down stairs with his dad to the kitchen. The kitchen is a bright blue color, the trim around the ceiling was full of sparkling pearl like decorations. The dining table was almost as huge as the kitchen. Johnathan loves the big, grand dining table and for the first time he didn't even bother to sit at the table as he ate his breakfast. He rushed through the contents on his breakfast plate like he haven't eat in years.

His mom made a full breakfast this morning she made: eggs, waffles, and perfectly cooked turkey bacon, which all looked dreamy to Johnathan. Dispite this he rushed through the contents on his breakfast plate like a tornado going through a small town.

Once done with eating breakfast he rushed through the front door to walk to school, the school is only a block away from his house. Half way there he sees the perfect girl leaving here home, as she walked out of her front door she drops her school supplies, without hesitation Johnathan ran over to help her pick up the supplies.

"Thanks for helping me pick up my belongings, I very much appreciate it." Alice says.

Her voice was that of an angel to Johnathan, embarrassed that his voice was nothing as magical as her's he stuttered to say " no problem, I'll walk with you to school if you don't mind. I am Johnathan marshall, and you are?"

"I am Alice and sure I'll love to walk with you to school." Alice says

Once inside the school, they notice how well dressed everyone is compared to them except one oddly looking boy who was at his locker, the two of them easily felt a connection to him, they walked over to him and introduced themselves.

It's Chris Reed, he's wearing some old battered gym shoes and an off white T-shirt, that looked as old as him. The three of them was close as chopsticks after the first day of school.

Then everthing changed when Johnathan was 12, he lost his mother, Chris disappeared, and Alice and him grew apart.

ALL THESE memories Johnathan remembered as he dreamed in his sleep. He awoke feeling disappointed on the way all their friendships ended. He looked down at Chris while he slept wondering why he left, why he returned after so long, and what is he possibly keeping from him?
