Hi, my name is Carla Cortez, and I was born on October 13th, 1990. And my best friend, Joshua Richards, was born the day right after me, and at the same exact time. It seems suspicious at first, being born after the day I was born, but it turned out well at first.

I never thought having a best friend was nice, but Joshua was different than any other person. He was sweet, kind, and most of all, CUTE! Growing older became a horrible thing, however, for the both of us.

Joshua had to move to a different state miles away from my old, worn out house in Maine. And I was never able to ask him for his phone number because I was the shy, quiet girl who didn't like to bother people while busy. We barely kept in touch because of phone issues in New York and my family's phone bill was moving fast down a hill. It didn't take long until Joshua stopped calling me on my Cellular Phone, and I was too depressed to answer any other calls I got from friends, even if it were him. It was unbearable for me to stay normal and act like nothing was happening between my best friend and I with our issues while he was in "The Big Apple".

I never was told about why he had to move away, or what happened to him after the move, but I don't want to know after all. It seems all so weird and confusing to me how he moves and then never calls me about how I am or what happened to me as I grew older. But I don't care about what he decides anymore, because it's all over and finished and I cannot change anything that has happened between us.
