the promises we made

first promise

They looked at each other. Both laying on the trees thick long branches.  He began to wonder what would happen to the friend he was going to leave. He hadn't told her he was moving yet. His grandfather needed family to help him. He was getting old and he was very ill. The girl too had not told him something. Her grandmother had cancer and was not expected to live much longer. She was close to her grand mother. Closer than anyone. And her loss would surely take its toll on the girl. But both of them forgot all the futures problems when they sat in that tree. Except now. Today was the day he had to go. 

"Hey, you wont forget me right?" His eyes became dull. she knew what he was going to say and she stopped him.

"Yah. I promise." She looked almost sad but she still had that glow of the sun reflecting in her eyes. The two of them layed back down and watched as the sun went down. He said his goodbyes and they where never the same again.
