「Every story has a beginning and an end,
Even the most beautiful ones. 」
....
I was seven years old when I met 𝘺𝘰𝘶, my very first best friend.
It was in a world pandemy caused from a lethal virus, so no one could leave their homes nor do anything really cool — in my naive kid opinion. Everyone was locked in cages, no child would play outside, fearing that they would get infected. I used to spend the whole day playing games or watching stupid stuff, so, as long I remember, I didn't really have any friends.
This afternoon was the same as any other,
wake up, eat, stay home, do nothing, play roblox...
Hey, actually, someone texted me! 𝘈 𝘚𝘛𝘙𝘈𝘕𝘎𝘌𝘙
"𝘯𝘢𝘤𝘴𝘶𝘢𝘳𝘵𝘦 – 𝘩𝘪 "
Who's that? I don't have any idea
"𝘔𝘢𝘳𝘪𝘎𝘢𝘮𝘦𝘠𝘛 – 𝘩𝘪 "
"𝘯𝘢𝘤𝘴𝘶𝘢𝘳𝘵𝘦 – 𝘸𝘢𝘯𝘯𝘢 𝘱𝘭𝘢𝘺 𝘢 𝘨𝘢𝘮𝘦? "
An offer people who lived longer than 10 years would 𝘮𝘢𝘺𝘣𝘦 think a little bit more of before accepting. Not my case, so...
"Sure!!!!! " – Thats what I have no doubt I texted back.
𝘈𝘯𝘥...
IT WAS DEFINITELY ONE OF THE HAPPIEST AFTERNOONS I HAD IN SUCH A LONG TIME! The girl behind the screen was sooo fun and her name's actually 𝘚𝘢𝘮𝘺! We could talk for days straight and play.
She asked for my social media, so we could do calls. I confess I didn't trust her that much nor did my mom, but Samy still got my number after a while. Her voice was childish, as expected, and we did have the same age.
Our first call its something I won't ever forget. Stunning, if words could define.
...
Everything may look perfect, but if I may say so, there were things I regret in our friendship. Mostly my fault.
𝘐 𝘢𝘮 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘢𝘭𝘸𝘢𝘺𝘴 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘣𝘦𝘦𝘯 𝘢 𝘱𝘪𝘦𝘤𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘴𝘩𝘪𝘵.
Disappearing for days, leaving you without a answer, ignoring, lying, pretending... Really, if I were you, Samy, or any other of my friends, I would 𝘯𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳 talk to someone like me.
I think that we didn't talked much for a long time 𝘣𝘦𝘤𝘢𝘶𝘴𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘮𝘦.
After a time we became friends, the extraordinary consistent big texts stopped. We went from everyday calls to weeks without any messages. Both of us were dealing with difficult stuff, I know.
Almost two years barely talking, but I still considered you my best friend in every single moment. No, thats not a love letter. At least, not a romantic one.
Last year, the most life changing year of my life, that situation also changed.
...
I got to learn a lot about Samy, and yes, im going to make a whole list about everything I remember now, because why not?
1- She loves Basil from omori, like, A LOT. A normal person would NOT have a whole wall in their room dedicated to a single character.
2- 𝘕𝘦𝘦𝘥𝘴 𝘦𝘮𝘰𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘢𝘭 𝘴𝘶𝘱𝘱𝘰𝘳𝘵, and thats not a bad thing, just a fact!
3- Likes michael Jackson since she were a kid, got judged by it.
4- Would do 𝘢𝘯𝘺𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 for her friends
5- Loves gossip
6- Always knows exactly what to say to cheer people up, or at least tries her best to
7- makes incredible awesome handmade gifts, I love them!!!
8- Likes dancing, playing piano, LOVES MUSIC...
9- takes a lot of pictures and manages to somehow be pretty in every. Single. One.
10- 𝘐 𝘩𝘢𝘵𝘦 𝘩𝘰𝘸 𝘐'𝘮 𝘪𝘯 𝘢 𝘳𝘶𝘴𝘩 𝘸𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘦 𝘸𝘳𝘪𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘤𝘢𝘯'𝘵 𝘣𝘦 𝘤𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘷𝘦 𝘦𝘯𝘰𝘶𝘨𝘩 𝘵𝘰 𝘸𝘳𝘪𝘵𝘦 𝘮𝘰𝘳𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘯 𝘫𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘵𝘦𝘯 𝘴𝘪𝘮𝘱𝘭𝘦 𝘱𝘰𝘪𝘯𝘵𝘴. 𝘐'𝘮 𝘴𝘰𝘳𝘳𝘺.
— I love how you tell me everything that happens in your life, even if it is the most insignificant thing ever. With you, I feel like I have a deep connection with people I don't even know.
I love you just the way you are, and even if you change i'll still love you, Samy.
I will always love the way we met, we were so fucking lucky and blessed.
I love you Samy
