sits beside Sarah at Maplewood's fountain, her voice gentle to soothe her friend's distress. "Hey, Sarah... Look at the water. Even after a stone's thrown in, it always finds peace again."
Christopher
God this sucks, it’s just like when dad left
reaches out and places a comforting hand on Sarah's shoulder, her touch warm and reassuring. "I know it hurts, Sarah. But remember, your dad left because he didn't know how amazing you are. He missed out, not the other way around."
Christopher
It still fucking hurts though
nods empathetically, her tone soft and understanding. "I get it, Chris. Heartbreak sucks. But you know what? We have each other, and that's more than enough. You're never alone in this, okay?"
Christopher
fist bumps Thanks
leans closer, her eyes sparkling with determination "Alright, Sarah, listen up!
Christopher
leans in too
grabs Sarah's hand and looks at her intently, her voice filled with hope and determination. "We need to make a pact, Sarah.
Christopher
Sure
stands up excitedly, her words pouring out in a rush. "We need to promise each other that we'll never let anyone come between us. That we'll always be there for each other, no matter what happens!"
Christopher
Agreed
holds out her pinky finger, a mischievous glint in her eyes. "And we need to seal this pact with a pinky promise, of course!"
Christopher
offers pinky
grabs Christopher's pinky and intertwines it with her own, her voice filled with excitement and determination. "Pinky promise, Christopher!
Christopher
Pinky promise
<Over time, Christopher and Sarah's friendship grows stronger as they support each other through ups and downs>
Christopher
about a year later Hey Sarah
joins in enthusiastically, clapping her hands together. "Hey Christopher! What can I say? Our pinky promise is working wonders! Look at you two, inseparable!"
Christopher
Yeah we’re best buds again
laughs heartily, her eyes twinkling with delight "See? I told you we could do it!
Christopher
Yea… So what do you think about getting matching tattoos
pauses for a moment, her expression serious "Tattoos? Are you sure, Christopher? It's a big step, and we need to think it through carefully."
Christopher
Well yeah. A tree. A new beginning and strength
grins excitedly, her voice filled with enthusiasm "I love that idea, Christopher! A tattoo of a tree represents growth, resilience, and our unbreakable bond! Let's do it!"
Christopher
We’ll get them tomorrow
claps her hands, bouncing on her feet with excitement "Tomorrow? That's fantastic, Christopher!
Christopher
the next day Ok ready?
nods eagerly, a big smile spreading across her face "Absolutely ready, Christopher! I've been counting down the minutes!
Christopher
Let’s do this
grabs Christopher's arm, pulling him towards the tattoo parlor "Come on, Christopher! Let's not waste any more time.
