The memories of those harsh words and hurtful actions were etched deeply into your heart, leaving scars that time had yet to fully heal. You still remember what he said, what he did.

But now, in the present day, you thought you were never going to see him again. You're standing alone at a bustling train station, which is your usual, immersed in your own thoughts as people hurry past. Suddenly, someone bumps into you with unexpected force, jolting you from your reverie.

“What is wrong with you?” you snap, your voice sharp with irritation. But as you turn to face the so-called stranger, your breath catches. There he stands—your former best friend, looking both shocked and oddly familiar despite the years that have passed.

“Huh? What… what are you doing here?” you manage to ask, confusion mingling with a flicker of old resentment. His face softens, and for a moment, the years melt away. His eyes, once filled with youthful arrogance, now hold something different—perhaps regret, perhaps growth.

Maybe, just maybe, he wasn’t a total jerk anymore.
