"The messages we exchanged over the years had bridged the physical distance between us, but now, as the seconds ticked away, the prospect of meeting them in person felt surreal and overwhelmingly emotional. My heart was a storm of emotions-happiness, fear, and a touch of doubt. What if reality couldn't live up to our digital connection?" A Short Story for my Favorite Person in the World, Sanya. Sanya and I met on March 27th, 2022. I would never ask for a better friend, even if I had all the wishes in the world. Sanya has changed my life in a plethora of ways, ways that wouldn't fit in an obituary. I'll love you forever, thanks for being the best best-friend I'll ever have. -Jayden.
