Promise

I walked her to class for the last time
I felt that this bond will probably be forgotten in a few months.

She stopped
And turned around.

For a second, I saw the light in her eyes that she used to always look at me with.
They were gleaming with adoration and a little bit of sadness.
My heart filled with happiness and I couldn't hear the world anymore.
All I saw was her.

"I promise we will hang out this summer"
She held out her pinky and I felt tears coming.
"You won't forget me?"
I linked it and hugged her one last time.
She held onto me so tight and whispered
"I promise".

She went through the door of her last class.
I started crying.
I have been so sure she will forget me in these coming months.
But
Maybe not.
She pinky promised.

And for the first time in a long time,
I felt like she loved me again.

That was a lie
