Trepidation Part 4

Noah's POV:

My soul was slowly being torn. I knew I would never be able to live here without her.

I closed my eyes, humming a familiar song. The memory of her came to me. It was her favorite song in fifth grade.

I remember her singing it loudly, without a care in the world about what anyone thought. She played the song on repeat daily; back then, I thought she was annoying.

Flashback:

"Phoe, if I have to listen to this song one more time, my ears will bleed!!" I whined.

Phoenix giggled while wiggling her body around. Dancing silly like she always did.

"Oh, Noah, stop being such a bummer!" she says, rolling her eyes at me.

She pulled me up from my sitting position and forced me to dance around wildly with her. Eventually, I give in to her nonsense, laughing at her insanity.
