*Flashback*

I entered the park holding hands with my mother and looked around excited. There were many kids but being the shy girl I never interacted with them much. I left my mother's hand while she went to sit on the bench and ran towards the playground. 

I wore a blue frock with white frills and had my hair in a braid with a matching hair band. I saw a boy my age sitting alone in the corner playing with his toy car but he looked sad, this made me frown and I started moving towards him when suddenly he scraped his hand and got a huge cut which bled. He started crying while the other children around him laughed at him making him cry harder. Seeing him cry made me sad and I went up to him.

He had black hair and pretty light green eyes. I cautiously moved towards him as I was a bit shy interacting with new people. When he felt me standing near him, he looked up, his eyes widened slightly and his cheeks tinted a slight pink shade, he quickly looked back down whimpering in pain.

"Hi! I am Mae." I smiled at him. He looked up me and smiled slightly.

"Ryan" He mumbled and clutched his still bleeding hand wincing.

"Here, show me." I sat beside him taking his hand in mine. I examined it then took off my hair band and tied it around his hand like a bandage.

He seemed slightly shocked by my actions but smiled brightly.

"Thank you!" He said.

"Friends?" I asked holding out my hand which he clutched eagerly. We shook our hands sealing the promise of friendship.

I looked at his face and saw he still had tears in his eyes. I frowned pouting and searched my pockets. I grinned and took out two chocolates holding out one for him.

He smiled shaking his head, refusing to take it. I pouted shoving it towards him and he finally took it reluctantly but smiling.

We sat there in silence eating our chocolates till it was time for me to go. My mother called out for me and I got up dusting my dress. I looked at a frowning Ryan, "What's wrong?" I asked him.

"You are leaving?" He asked sad.

"Yes" I replied in the same voice, somehow seeing him sad made me feel sad too.

"But I'll be here tomorrow! We will meet again!" I said brightly lifting his mood also.

"You will be?" He asked hopefully while I nodded happily.

"Bye Ryan!" I called running towards my mother while he shyly waved at me.

Little did I know I was not going to come back the next day. As soon as we reached home my mother announced that we are leaving tomorrow morning. I started to cry and begged that I don't want to leave but they didn't listen. I cried myself to sleep remembering all the moments I lived here in these five years of my life and fell asleep thinking about a boy with the most pretty green eyes.

*End of flashback*

"Why didn't you tell me earlier" I asked him still overwhelmed with emotions after remembering those days.

He simply shrugged and looked away.

"Ryan...I am so sorry for that day, I..I didn't know we were moving away." I replied tearing up, my voice cracking. 

He looked at me and immediately cupped my cheeks wiping away the few tears that I hadn't known escaped.

"Hey, hey it's alright." He said soothingly and hugged me.
