Come Back Home
High school...some say it's the best time of your life, others say it's a practical living hell. As horrible as high school was, he had to admit that he was glad that he went. Mostly because of her.
It was freshman year when he casually met her during the homecoming rally when they were seated together. She talked to him, he talked to her. Bam, instant best friends. Just best friends.
Graduating high school together, going to college together, graduating college together, getting their first apartment together...it was all because they were best friends. Just best friends.
-
She went on dates, she went out, she looked for love. He waited for her.
-"You look amazing, he won't be able to keep his eyes off you" Arron said, meaning every word he spoke. She nodded in excitement, looking at herself once again in the mirror Arron had on his door.
"I hope he'll like me" Hebe let out a breath and closed her eyes.
"He already does, hence the date" Arron pointed out.
Hebe's smile grew as she turned to her best friend. "Okay, I'm going now. Bye, bye Ah Bu. I'll be back tonight"
-
She would always wander away, exploring different things and meeting new people. He didn't mind that...
Because she always found her way back home.
-Because she always found her way back home.
Arron patted her back, as if it was a usual routine. "What did he do?"
"First of all, he assumed that I would sleep with him after just one date. I am not that kind of girl and after I told him no, he still tried to convince. Finally, I just left him there" Hebe ranted.
Hebe pulled away from him. "I'm glad to be home, Ah Bu" she said in a relaxed tone.
-
But what happens when she wants to find another home?
-"Ah Bu! Can you believe it? I'm moving to Japan!" Hebe exclaimed as she danced with glee.
"Really, that's awesome!" He said his voice reeking of false bliss. However, she was too happy to notice it.
"Japan is such a beautiful place, imagine all the photos I'll be able to take there! It'll be awesome! Don't you think so? I don't even know when I'll be able to return to Taiwan!"
Arron nodded slowly, trying to hold back the bitter tears threatening to fall.
-
"Waiting for her...seems hopeless. Maybe I should just get over this old high school crush and move on."
-
"Japan's awesome...but why is it that there's something huge missing from my life?"
-
Arron and Hebe, best friends since high school, work together, live together and hang out together. However, they're nothing more than best friends.
Hebe constantly goes on dates to find her one true love while Arron sits at home, acting as a shelter for Hebe in the rain.
But one day, she gets the chance to live in Japan for one whole year.

What do you think? I don't want to post it up on Winglin because I'm not sure of the response. Do you like it? If you do, leave me a tag in the side! If I get enough support, then I'll just continue it!
I totally need to finish up my characterization essay and my geometry homework, but when I get inspired, I just have to write! Anyways, I hope you enjoyed this. Not really much of a rant but whatever. I think you guys enjoy reading stories than me rambling about my life.
By the way...I still cannot believe how much I really still like BeBu >.>
They just kind of stick on me...
Sometimes my views change...but I still love BeBu.
So let's keep this BeBu train moving!
