me:"lemme see. okay, your ankle's bit srcatched you're gonna live." guy:"that's good to know."

we both stood up. that guy seemed okay for someone who just fell over and scratched their ankle.

guy:"my name's brett."

me:"um......er........ i'm, i'm uh, (i seemed to have lost my voice at that moment).............flick."

brett:"nice to meet you. are you from around here?"

me:"er no. just for vacation. you?"

brett:"until new years day. my family's gonna send me off to boarding school "

after that chance meeting, we got together very often. we connected in so many ways......

he actually taught me how to skate. or tried. that photo always make me laugh.

sometimes we just strolled around. we talked about stuff......

we even sometimes sneaked out at night. his parents were very strict about phones.

he was a great guy. i always loved being around him. though we knew it all had to end one day.......
