a new family. a boy with brown hair and vibrant eyes and glasses that slip down his nose. "i found him, mom!" lego star wars. sharing crayons and learning chinese. holding hands. innocent smiles and bubbly laughter.
a kiss on the cheek.
moving away. seven long years without you. keychains and niagra falls and staying up too late. three doors down and "here without you" playing on repeat.
falling asleep to the sound of our memories.
