Childhood friend, where are you? *cries*

Recently, I was wondering why I don't have a childhood friend whom I'm still close to up to now. I was even asking my mom why on earth doesn't she have colleagues who have children that have the same age close to mine. To tell you, I have a friend whom I knew since I was a pretty little girl but, we haven’t talked for the longest time, nor see each other since I switched school. And that was like two years ago? Eh, but ever since she didn’t treat me like a close friend. She wants friends like those of Ms. Popular; and I’m not popular, so why would she hang out with me? And she told me I’m boring. Damn, why should I even care about her? She has her own life, and I’m not a pusher. I don’t push things till it reach the border line.

The purpose of writing this isn’t actually to share how I dread (well, if really dreaded that time..) for not being treated as a close friend but to share my imaginative mind. If it’s not that imaginative enough, just say so.

The “childhood friend” that I was badly dreaming to have, of course when I was still a kid isn’t the one that you play dress up or tea parties with but, the one you play with cars and robots; And the one who teases you a lot. A boy! Exactly. Do you get what I mean now? Try to recall those fairytale-like films that you’ve watched. Doesn’t the protagonist always have a childhood friend whom she met in the playground? Or in a church? Or in any place there is? That’s exactly what I wanted my life to turn out to be. Sadly, it didn’t start the way I want.

In films, it starts with a pretty and naïve girl who has a guy best friend. They play all day like there’s no tomorrow. Then, when they reach their pre-teen years, they’ll feel awkward when they see each other. They’ll lose track of each other’s lives ‘cause the girl went to a different state. One day, they’ll bump to each other. Their eyes would meet and they’ll heart will start thumping. Then the next day, the guy would see the girl in a diner with another guy. You can see his facial expression changes a bit with a pinch of jealousy. The girl will spot him and invite him to join them. She’ll let her childhood friend meet her fiancé ‘cause they’re getting married in three weeks time. Although the guy is getting all jealous and feels real heavy, he’ll fake a smile and introduce himself. Then a week before the wedding, the girl sees her childhood friend with another girl. She’ll feel uneasy for what she saw. She’ll also feel jealous and all. Then, both of them will feel confused. One of them will pick up the phone and dial the other one’s number. They’ll agree to meet in a certain place. The day of their meeting, they’ll start to talk about their childhood memories. They’ll reminisce every bit of it. They’ll keep on laughing and blabbing then suddenly… they’ll just stop. The cold wind touches their cheeks in a hot summer day. The guy leans closer to the girl, then kiss her. The girl will kiss him back, and so the planned wedding of the girl will not take place ‘cause the girl broke up with her fiancé and married her childhood friend. And, they live happily ever after. FIN.

Okay, done with my flashback, I must say. XD Was that too long? ‘Cause I find it real long. Isn’t that sweet? LOL. I feel happy every time How I really wish my life’s like that. Like a scene just popped out from a film or a story. You may find me silly, but that’s all I wanted. ‘Cause having a childhood friend has double purpose. You get to have a real friend, and a lover who’ll be there with you till the end.
