Childhood Best Friends reuniting as Adults (and rekindling old emotions)
◈ “We're so different now.” “Yeah. I guess we are.” “I can't wait to get to know my old best friend all over again.”
◈ “Oh wow, you've… changed.” “And you look exactly the same, just taller. Heh, we've always been perfect opposites, haven't we?” “I guess that's something that's still the same then.”
◈ “Do you ever wonder what would've been if you hadn't moved?” “Every day.” “Me too. Every milestone in my life after that made me wonder how you would've reacted had you been there.” “I never stopped being your cheerleader, even if I wasn't there.”
◈ “Remember when we stole ice cream from that corner store?” “Hey, you stole it! Told me you paid for it, I just believed you!” “You used to believe everything I said.” “Still do.”
◈ “I didn't think you'd remember that.” “I still remember everything about you.”
◈ “I don't want this day to end.” “Then let's add another tomorrow. And one after that. And another, and another…” “You say that like it's easy.” “You've always made it all feel easy.”
◈ “These swings are smaller than I remember.” “I think we've just grown up.” “But this is ridiculous! We used to be able to fit together on one!” “We still could, if you hop up on my lap.”
◈ “Did you know they tore down the tree we used to climb on? I went back a couple weeks ago.” “Really? Damn. Sometimes it feels like we got nothing left from our chilldhood but memories.” “At least they're the sweetest memories I got.”
◈ “You ever think about the last day we spent together? You'd wanted to say something then…” “You still remember that?!” “I do. And I have been dying to know what that thing was for years.” “Oh, I… I don't think that matters anymore now.” “I think it does. More than you know.”
