"It wasn't the first time Aiden had thought about leaving. He sat down next to his best friend and asked:
'Haven't you shown me what life can be like when the soul finds peace?
You helped me let down my guard and I helped you find everything you were lacking. You are complete, you are perfect, you have always been.
Now will you be the one who pushes me on my way into a new life where my past dissolves like a shadow in the sunlight?
I can and always will be the most caring and the most loving friend you will ever have.
And as they say, friends are like stars. You cannot always see them but they are always there.
When I am far away, maybe not in reach for you, I am never gone, I'll always be somewhere. And I will never forget what you have done for me.
This is not a goodbye, this is a promise'
Then he raised his hand, put it on Henry's shoulder and got up. Without turning around once more he walked a few steps, then stopped.
'This isn't easy, Henry, but it's okay now.', he whispered, then disappeared."

I don't know what exactly this expresses, but I felt like writing this.
