A DECADE AGO “Where we going, Ariana!”

Two little pair of feet run across the long yard, rushing and giggling as they hold hands and one holds a teddy bear. They shifty drifted into an alone bushy area where they both sat giggling quietly.

The one in a yellow shirt, Ariana, looked up at little you.

“Why’re we here?” She shushed you. You see her smile and you raise an eyebrow. “I have an idea!” She spoke in a loud whisper. You nod. “I want us to get married.” She whispers. You raise an eyebrow once again. “Why?” You questioned innocently. “Gavin told me when you really like someone you marry them and give ‘em stuff.” Little Ariana replied, referring to her older brother Gavin. “I’ve heard tha’ too.” You hum. She smiled. “You’re my best friend so I wanna get married! So we can be best friends forever!” She smiled and yelled it out almost. You both giggle. “Okay.” You say and she squeals. “But we need rings!” She says. “No we don’t.” You say, passing her your teddy bear.

“You’ll keep it forever.” You say, “That’s your ring.” She nodded and hug you. “In a movie I heard, till death do us apart. That’ll be our promises.”

you both hug again.

However one day, your mother walks in your room. “Come look at this.” She said. It was a picture of you and Ariana when you were kids.* “What bout it?” you question cluelessly. “Soli and Ariana are coming over for dinner to meet again.” She smiled. Till death do us apart I guess…
