[ FOUR. ]
it's been eight years since tiny and i ever saw each other, and he was starting to become more of a distant memory than a close friend. i could barely remember tiny's face anymore and his squeaky voice telling me to play tag with no longer echoed in my head every morning.
perhaps it's for this one boy at my new high school.
jisung park.
he's very tall, and he always dyes his hair.
it's been black, red, and brown, and it's now blonde. but the craziest color he had, was blue.
he also looks very unapproachable, but the truth is that he just keeps to himself unless someone talks to him.
we sit together for biology class, and we both hate it. instead, we always pass notes to each other while the teacher rambled on and hit her little pointer on the board every ten seconds.
i remember the first conversation we had together: it was on a green post it and it was about ethnicity.

i actually hate it...my brother dared me to do it lol, but thank you! i may just like the color more now ^-^

ever since, we would have random conversations about anything and everything—the best part is that we never got tired of it all.
maybe we could be best friends forever.
