I was just an ordinary teen until I met an angel who was passing by.

I don't know what happened and how come I saw an angel.

Based on his looks, I think he is around my age but do angels even age?

The angel said that he wants to hangout with me. Since I was feeling down and lonely that time, I said yes

I asked the angel, "Where are your wings?"

"Here" he replied, wiggling his shoulders and letting me see his back. I asked where but he said that mortals like me don't get to see them

We hangout until it was sunset. Ahhh~ I thought the day would never end.

He assured me that he'll come back again tomorrow to have more fun with me. I was so excited that night I couldn't sleep.

Tossing and turning in my bed, remembering all the things we did made me smile but I forgot to ask his name.

The next morning came. I woke up really early. My mom was shocked to see me eating breakfast in the morning when I just usually sleep in and wake up in the afternoon.

I waited for the angel all day and he didn't fail to come. Just like what we did before, we hangout in the park.

I showed him my paintings, poems, and calligraphies and he seem to be very fond of it. He played his harp for me.

There are not much people today at the park so I didn't care about him getting exposed.

We sat at the blanket I prepared and silently looked at the cloudy sky.

"Hey, you haven't told me your name yet", I said.

He smiled, "I can't remember my name...I don't even know if I had a name".

He didn't show any hint of sadness but that made me really sad.

The fact that my angel friend has no name

"I shall give you name then, if that's alright with you?", he slowly nods.

Hmm~what name? Honestly I'm not good at giving names.

Until now, my mom isn't calling our dog by its name because it sound weird so she calls it by whistling.

The name of our dog by the way  is Baby Ice Grizzle Pops the second. He is the son of Baby Ice Grizzle Pops the first who just died a few months ago.

So name? Hmmm. A perfect name for an angel.

"Yang Yang"

He looked at me with confusion but that look starts to fade.

"I like it", he said. I'm glad he did.

"Yang Yang. Hahaha! I find that name really cute" I stare at him and felt that my cheeks are starting to blush so I look away.

We spent the whole day together again until it was sunset and it's time for him to go.

"You'll be back again right?" He nod and tap my head and he was gone. Disappeared.

Things became like that everyday. Day after day, I'll wait for him to appear and when the sun is setting he disappears.

I'm really happy to meet an angel. I sometimes wonder if is he a gift from Heaven.

I spent the whole summer with Yang Yang.

He told me all about his angel friends. The thing that angels always do is to guide and keep an eye on us.
