Friends are like balloons.Once you let them go, you can't get them back. Life is too short to wake up with regrets. Love the people who treat you right. Forget about the ones who don't. Believe everything happens for a reason. If you get a second chance, grab it with both hands. If it changes your life, let it. Nobody said life would be easy. They just promised it would be worth it.

Flashback

“Zack-coroni … Zack-cornoi” I shouted from my back garden, waiting for Zack to come and play outside.

“Hey Lizzy, what game do you want to play today?”

“Mmmmmmmmmm … Jacks and Marbles. My dad bought me new marbles today.” I exclaimed while holding up a bag of marbles.

“I win! I win!” He shrieked, jumping up and down.

“I don’t like this game anymore”

Zack gave an unsure look. “Yeah I don’t like this game either!? Let’s watch the clouds instead?”

We both lie down and watch the clouds pass by naming what they looked like.

“Hey Zack” I looked over to Zack.

“Yeah Lizzy-Tizzy”

“What do you want to be when you get older?” I questioned curiously.

“Maybe a fireman”

“That’s cool”

“What would you be?”

“I don’t know. Can we play another game now?”

Narrator

Sitting on the porch, sat two mothers chatting and smiling at their children.

“Wouldn’t it be wonderful if they got married one day” said one mother to another.

“You know what, I think they will one day” answered the mother smiling to the other.

The two mothers sat beaming at the children wondering what their future will bring.
