"It's when we make a promise and put our pinkie fingers together." said Jackson. "Okay! Why do we have to make a pinkie promise?" I asked him. I was just curious to why he wanted to make one. 'Mommy said we are going to move." his lips turned from a big cheery smile to a pout. "What? You're going to move?" I didn't want him to. I love Jackson. He is my only friend here. "Yeah. That's why we have to make a pinkie promise!" he changed his pout back to smile, which made me smile back. I just looked at him and nodded. "So I want us to promise each other to never forget about each other!" he chirped. I laughed. Then we linked pinkies to make it official. "Jacky, I will never forget!" We began to laugh and say the weirdest thing we have done together.
