Some lost Friendships

After a long week, your exams are over. You're mindlessly scrolling your insta feed, and suddenly, you stop. You see a post of someone who was once really, really close to you. Now you start to scroll your memories with that person, but you realize that you have just grown apart.

You remember how you used to do all bakchodis together. You just laugh at it and keep scrolling your memories. That one song always sticks with that person, and you are about to fall into nostalgia.

But suddenly, this nostalgia turns into a sense of sadness. Try to remember the last time you saw them? How they used to sound? The last time when were you guys talked normally? There might be some incidents that separated both of you. But wait! you still remember some silly jokes on which you both used to laugh. A slight wave of thoughts comes into your mind saying how much you both knew about each other. Your dreams, your embarrassing moments, your crushes, everything suddenly starts roaming around you.

Did you ever think about a day when you both weren't together? Did you ever think of a day when you would live a life without them? Well! Time changes, and with time, everything changes. But deep down, aren't you still eager to just meet them and hug them tightly and relive your childhood? This tiny smile on your face with your filled eyes tells everything.

And you realize these are some lost friendships that can never be the same again.
