I remember the day when we were kids when I first met you.

You had the cutest grin I ever saw, I was 14 and you were 11.

You didn't really act like your age when we first talked.

You were the very special person to me that day.

When I was 12 my parents passed away on Christmas day.

I was devastated every year on Christmas because of that,

I was angry at the world and didn't understand why

God took everything I loved away or put me to live with my rotten Aunt and Uncle.

I remember how I ran out of the house wanting to leave everything behind me, I wanted to give up on life itself.

I ran and ran not caring where I was going.

the cold air burned my lungs

the slicing pain on my side was slowing me down.

I kept telling myself I need to keep going

which explained everything how I felt.

"so I guess your Christmas is bad," I said keeping my gaze on the horizon

"My parents were supposed to come down for Christmas. Of course, work is so important they couldn't come home."

"Oh, I'm sorry to hear," I said slowly, he just shrugged his shoulders

standing up from the floor and wiped his pants off.

"since my Christmas is crap, what happens to your Christmas to make it to shit?"

"my aunt and uncle broke my mom and dad necklace that they got me for Christmas before they passed away. It was the only thing I had left of them"

I choked backed the tears trying to stay strong.

The boy smile faded as he heard my story.

He took his sleave and wiped the sandy tears off my face

"it's alright, Maybe I can fix it," he says smiling weakly

I shook my head, then dug into my pockets to get it.

it was a metal dove that carried a crystal rose,
