I run into my parents’ comforting arms as the mask I desperately kept on during school finally comes off to reveal a broken-hearted girl. 


Dani didn’t recognize me in school today either. 


I try, try, and try so hard to stay patient. I try to stay away from her at a responsible distance but I feel like my breaking point is reaching its end. I keep thinking about how much I have to give to her; my time, my love, my days, and my everything. But the friend I made years ago is gone and I can’t force her mind to remember me. I have to stay away. 


This is for her. All of this is for her. 


I can’t be selfish and overwhelm her. I have to do what dad says and treat her as a stranger for the time being. 


It seems after she fell out of her bedroom window. Her mind forgotten about the most cherished memory of hers ― me. I felt warmth hearing she cherished our friendship but immediately cried in my mom’s arms when I realized that she’ll never remember me again.
