It was a bright sunny day and Lara was reading “The Ultimate Gift” while sitting under a big shaded tree at the park. She was wearing her reading glasses and a glass of wine was next to her. She was so deep in her reading that she didnt realize there was a pair of eyes was watching her. Suddenly her sunlight was blocked by a person. Lara looked up and didnt believe what shes looking at. Those brown hair, hazel eyes, and sincere smile, it was Ryan! Her long lost friend. Although he has changed but Lara still recognize those smiles. Lara was so happy and shocked.

And stuff that Lara misses so much to talked about. Ryan has always been Laras shoulder to cry on, a place for her to let out her feeling and a buddy to talk too. Their friendship were too strong to break the comfort that they have on each other even it has been years since they last meet.
