Remembrance

‘One day…’

‘One fine day in the future maybe,’ she replied, half smiling.

‘But why not now?’ Her friend persisted and pressed.

She didn’t reply.

‘Hello? I’m talking to you. I’m asking you why you can’t forget her already. She already got herself a new best friend, why can’t you see that?’ her friend fumed.

Sighing, she replied, ‘How can you ever imagine to forget someone who once owned a part of your heart, happiness, joy and life?’

Dumbstruck, her friend watched as a single tear adorned her flushed cheek.
