Sometimes, you get so engrossed in a book that the names of these fictional characters sound like friends you’ve known your whole life. And then in the real world, when relationships of any sort end, be it because of death or because life gets in the way, the names of these people begin to sound like fictional characters in a book you once read. They only exist in your memories, and even those fade away. It's scary, isn't it? I saw your name today and wondered where I've heard it before. Then I realised we used to be close. We used to be so close. It scared me because I felt like I was jumping through seasons of friends so quickly. But it comforted me too, knowing that nobody is indispensable. And voids fill themselves. And ultimately, we learn to move on quite fine.
