Good things come when you least expect them
Unfortunately, I keep wondering when that is
At times, I feel like I should pause
Remembering the good times helps
Dimming of the light in my eyes
Everyone notices
Don't worry, they say
(they're right, I shouldn't worry)
You simply became part of my life. You're like part of it, but also not. I forget that you're a year older than me cause you remind me of a child. But I mean that as a compliment...I think. You just are so carefree and go with the flow that I don't know how you're an adult with a full-time job. But I've seen how curious you are about everything. Such a smart fella. You and I are very different, but you've given me advice and pushed me to do what scares me. You assure me that I'll be okay when I have doubts. I admire how outgoing you are. You walk so confidently and can strike up a conversation with anyone. I always think you know them, but then you tell me you don't. You're full of surprises. Also... I still get flashbacks to you driving us to Alki. I genuinely thought I was gonna die in that car. I don't know how you got that license, but oh man, never again. Remember when New York guy got us into Sakura Con for free? That was an interesting time. I do miss hanging out with you as much as I did when I lived nearby. It's always fun having VT and Emma time. But hey, you can visit me one day, or I can visit you too (as long as you sponsor my trip). P.S. I wanna visit Tamil Nadu... I know you said I won't survive there, but I must visit. I must.

I have to write to you two together. You're a duo, so it just makes sense. You both have been in my life for so long. We watched each other grow up. You know all that goes on in my life. I love how we kinda drifted apart but reunited somehow. I love how you guys are so silly with me, but also know when to put on the serious glasses for real talk. Whenever I tell my mom that I'm hanging out with you two, she always says how good you both are and that she loves your personalities. I think it's so funny how we don't give our life updates over text (usually)- we prefer to wait till we’re all back home. RH, I wish success for you in your career and infinite happiness in your relationship. KW, I wish genuine connections for you because you have a big heart with so much love to give. You both are my softies who dilly dally. I actually can't imagine either of you doing adult things cause in my eyes we're still that group of middle school friends. I cherish you two whole heartedly.
