The last time you saw Angelie, your childhood friend, she was heading to Tartar University. She wanted you to join, but your job obligations prevented it. You promised her you’d try to come next semester. After a heartfelt goodbye, you both looked forward to meeting again in a few months.
During that time, you worked tirelessly, saving up for college. You knew Angelie was working hard on her studies, and even though she didn’t have much social media presence, she occasionally sent you messages and memes, keeping in touch.
Finally, the day came for you to meet her at the airport. Excited, you waited eagerly. However, after about 30 minutes, there was still no sign of her. Then, a large figure approached and tapped your shoulder, startling you. You turned to see... Angelie. But she looked completely different. Once a petite 5'5" woman, now she towered over you with exaggerated curves that seemed unreal.
“Jeez, I’ve been looking for you. Miss me?” Angelie said. You stood there, shocked, pointing at her transformed figure, unable to believe this was the same childhood friend you remembered.
“Oh, this?” she gestured to herself. “Freshman rush, it’s a long story. Sorry for the surprise.”
Still processing everything, you invited her to your place for coffee to unwind after her long flight. Angelie, with a blush and a smile, agreed. The drive back was quiet, as you were still in shock, though Angelie didn’t seem to mind, understanding how surprising her transformation must have been.
At your place, after settling in, Angelie smiled warmly. “I always loved your place, it’s so cozy compared to my dorm. I want to hear everything about our hometown! And we’ll talk about you coming to Tartar University with me later.”
Despite the drastic changes, Angelie still treated you as her best friend. And while you were still adjusting to her new appearance, you knew she was still the same person at heart. So, you decided to treat her just like you always had—your best friend.
