I somehow became pretty optimistic at the fact that people change.

Just like how ice changes to water...

Just like how a green mango changes to yellow...

Just like how spring changes to summer...

Just like how summer changes to autumn...

And just like how autumn changes to winter...

'Change' is always there. There are times that it gives us satisfaction but of course, change can also hurt us.

I found it frustrating and difficult whenever change touched a person especially if the result gives you negativity or pain. That's what I'm feeling right now to be honest. Not just today but I've been feeling this since last week and I'm sure that I'm not the only human who experienced this.

Everyone has this special person whom they call as their best friend, close friend etc.. They are the kind of people that become your rainbow whenever you've been through a storm and they are a handkerchief in disguise whenever tears threaten to fall from your eyes. To make it short, they are your comfortability amidst the bustle of life.

It's fun right?

It's fun to have a friend in your life...

It's very comforting to know that there is someone who will surely help you stand up whenever you stumble...

 But somehow, I found myself realizing that that someone is now nowhere in sight.

Distance is not the problem...During weekdays, I see that person for nine hours. Nine hours...same classroom...a few tables away from me.

However, despite how near I was to that person, I felt so far.

There will be instances that we'll catch each other's glances but those are easy to be numbered just by using your fingers. Actually, it's less than ten.

That person became so far and I don't even know the reason why.

It's like a giant boundary suddenly appeared out of nowhere and rested itself between us, cutting the line of our connection and erasing the bond that we created.

At first, I decided to be initiative and do the talking but everytime I greet that person, it felt like I was just talking to a wind. 

I devoted a lot of time just to say 'hi' or 'good morning' but what I always get in return is just a simple nod.

What happened?

Where are the times when I used to share to that person the stories about how I travel this life's road?

Where are the times when we used to exchange some laughters?

It's hard...

It's hard for me to accept the truth that all of it were blown by the wind in just a blink of an eye.

And now, I examined my condition and I somehow found myself as an abandoned puppy in the middle of a crowd.

But what hurts me is the fact that that person didn't even leave an explanation why things became this way. 

A sentence? A phrase? A word? There was none.

So here I am, trying to divine how did that boundary exist. 

And I am in a condition where I am slowly accepting that that person changed...just like the seasons.
