Heeseung, your childhood best friend or just a person you talk and play with?..

It all started when you and your parents transferred to a different town. You were new to the playground, shy and really bored.

You stayed in the floor, watching all the kids play with each other. You almost told your mom to go back home but that’s when Heeseung’s hand appeared in front of your eyes. He looked kind and playful. “Hey, I’ve never seen you around here. Are you new? Want to be friends?”

You swallowed your own saliva, shy and scared. He smiles. “Don’t worry, I’m not mean. We can play.” He says, wanting you to take his hand and be friends with him.

You hesitantly took his hand and smiled. “So, are we friends now?” He asked, waiting for an approval. You nodded and he immediately took you to the slides, seesaw and swings.

You both had fun, growing bond together. As you both grew, you two became best friends. You guys would go to church, hang out in every possible ways or even go back to places where it was memorable. It was friends to best friends forever.

At this point, you developed feelings for him. Everything went normal, until you invited him to go to the church with you. “Hi, Heeseung! Let’s go to the church!” You said, expecting a yes. “I’m busy.” He says. You knew very well it’s because of school and he’s almost going to college.

You nodded, giving a reassuring smile. “Oh, okay. I’ll see you then.” You turned and waved a goodbye then went to the church by yourself.

As days continued, he has been declining your invitation to churches, making you feel like he doesn’t want to go to church anymore so you stopped inviting him.

When you ask if you both can hangout, he would say the common excuse. Always the “sorry, I’m busy. I can’t.”

Until one day, he disappeared in your village. Their house still there, but no people. You didn’t get any news from anyone on why he was gone. It left you broken, such as your trust and love. From then on, you never believed in any relationship or friendships. You believed that forever doesn’t exist, that everything has an end.

Just like friends, best friends, boyfriends and girlfriends. Now you knew why they hand an end in the last 4 letters.
