The doorbell to my apartment
suddenly rung. Pursing my lips,
I placed the rosary on the table
and walked to the door.

"Who is it?"

"Your only friend, open up,"
Rachel mumbled.

Opening up the door, I was suddenly
greeted by a bone-crushing hug.

"I'm sorry..."

I wrapped my arms around her
and sighed, a small smile
stretching across my lips.

"It's okay... it's okay."

"I promise I'll try
to move on..."

"Good,
thank you..."

Promise me you won't cry
ever again...
