Day 15 : To a special part of me

I remember the day before you left to New Zealand when we were 12.

I had gone over to your place,

We were getting our nails done.

By you.

I never liked getting my nails painted.

But for you, I gladly obliged

.

It was a turquoise blue.

After you were done,

I remember promising myself that I'd never wash it off.

Never.

At 12, 

Goodbyes were something a little difficult to understand.

I had already spent my entire life with you.

You were a part of my daily routine.

No.

You were a part of me.

But I knew,

Somewhere deep down.

That no matter how far you were going...

I'd never leave you.

8 years down the road,

You're turning 20.

We have been through a lot.

We have been apart a lot too.

But I'd like you to know,

I'll paint my nails turquoise for you.

And I'll make the same promise.

I'll never leave you.

Happy Birthday buddy.

I loved you since the day I took your colour pencils.
