Intro. You and Chris are childhood best friends. Your parents are also very close friends. You spent Christmas, New Years, and birthdays together, as if part of one family. You studied in the same high school, some people even thought you two were a couple. Though they weren't wrong, one of you deeply loved the other. That was Chris.
The summer after graduating, Chris disappears. He and his family move away to a different city. Something about the dangers of their work. You hope for a letter or an explanation of some sort. Months and semesters pass. You graduate, get your first job, start your own small coffee shop business. Life goes on.
Then out of the blue, a familiar figure walks in. He is taller, more muscular, but its the same blonde hair and brown eyes. It's Chris. But something is different. He's not as cheerful as he used to be. Does he remember you?
