5 years later....

As I stare at my reflection in the mirror, I barely recognize the woman staring back at me. My blonde hair is pulled back into a ponytail, revealing a face that's both familiar and foreign. My eyes, once bright and carefree, now seem more guarded. My smile, once quick and easy, now feels more like a distant memory.

I think back to the day I met Amelia, and how different my life was then. I was younger, wilder, more reckless, enthusiastic, and more happy. I had no idea what the future held, but I was eager to find out. Now, as I prepare to meet my old buddy at the airport, I can't help but wonder how much I've changed and how much she must Have changed. I'm older, wiser, more cautious. But deep down, I'm still the same person, still searching for answers of my daily life, still trying to make sense of this crazy world.

As I take a deep breath and prepare to leave my apartment locking the door behind, I realize that some things may have changed, but others remain the same that us My friendship with Amelia, for one, remains strong, despite the distance and time apart. And as I head out today to meet her, I know that we'll fall back into our old routine, like no time has passed at all.

As I reached the airport and scanned the busy  crowd, a wave of nostalgia washed over me. Five years – a considerable span of time indee. The memories of tearful goodbyes and joyous reunion, stirring a mix of emotions within me. A friendship that, despite the physical distance, held the promise of familiarity and shared history. I wonder how much had changed, and yet, how much remained the same. The excitement of seeing her again, catching up on everything and our past fueled my anticipation.

''Wait, is that Amelia over there?"
Yes, it's Amelia! It's been ages, but I'd recognize that curly brown hair and mischievous face anywhere. She looks a bit more polished now, but that spark in her eyes is still the same. I can't help but smile as I watch her effortlessly charm the airport staff with her beauty and infectious laughter. I've missed her energy, her humor, and her unwavering optimism. As she makes her way towards me, I feel a wave of excitement and gratitude. We may have lost touch, but the connection we share remains strong. She's still the same Amelia I knew, with her unconventional style and her mesmerizing green eyes that seem to see right through me. But there's a newfound confidence and posture about her, a sense of self-determined personality that's inspiring. I can't wait to catch up and hear about her life, to share our stories and laughter once Again....

Bonnie: Amelia? Is that really you? You've changed so much!  I can't believe it! You've transformed in such a way that leave me utterly amazed, the sparkle in your eyes remains as vibrant as it was back then. It narrates a tale of movements and growth through life's twists and turns. Seeing you after all these years, witnessing the visual story of your evolution, is both surprising and heartwarming for me.

Amelia: Bonnie! Oh my goodness, I can't believe it's been five years! Your words about the changes and the journey of life hit me deep. Your observations made me realize how every experience, every twist and turn, has left its mark on you and how much you have changed. Life has sculpted us in unexpected ways, hasn't it?  I feel a sense of shared nostalgia for the unique paths that we've went through. Meeting you today, after years is truly a treasure.

Bonnie: Time flies, huh? How have you been, and how is Noah?

Amelia: Rollercoaster, you know? Life and stuff. I heard about Lexi. What happened? It was so sudden, and I'm still not accepting the fact that Lexi died in a car accident.

Bonnie: Yeah, it's been a journey. Lexi's loss hit us hard. Still figuring it out. And you, Amelia? How's life treating you?

Amelia: It's been a whirlwind. Ups and downs, you know. Noah's doing well, though.
