Alice:

I stood at my door, looking at the unfamiliar guy standing before me.
955Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaJTgWS7aFT
The flowers and card in his hands peaked my interest but his face showed sadness.
955Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc9GTGn0otW
"How can you not notice that it's me?" he asked, looking directly into my eyes.
955Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiX2CndOE2V
I tried to survey his face but there wasn't anything which rang with recognition.
955Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf3FGKp9vzH
He sighed when I didn't reply and placed the flowers and card into my hands.
955Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAOLHq60Rx2
"Well these are for you."
955Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPRhPrQSty6
His voice was so soft that I almost didn't hear him.
955Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmegMa0nEup
He turned around and walked away with his head hung low.
955Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAkca0XCzOx
I felt a pang of sympathy in my heart as I looked at him walking away.
955Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ88RUb2xWT3
Did I really know him like he claimed I did?
955Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1WCvKU5vzh
When he was almost at the end of the walkway, he turned around and raised a hand to his head.
955Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOmPaXCzmg0
He pulled his hair back to make it look almost as if he was bald.
955Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdar76hn7VZ
Bald
955Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh6Qok4gf3h
Instantly, I felt myself remembering the day that I had seen Leo without his hat.
955Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5iPGq22bU5
But how could it be?
955Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgL9p1Sfo3o
How could he have survived?
955Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0OD6o7rwMg
Before I could stop myself, I felt my legs carry me to him.
955Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0d86AT56nL
I hugged him tightly when I was close enough.
955Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvvzrZSiC0W
And I felt him hug me back tightly.
955Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN97iOi5Zvi
"You remembered," I heard him say.
955Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQwMUoYBRIk
"I'm so sorry Leo. You just looked so different."
955Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUBQuLZ2oj7
I couldn't help the few stray tears which escaped my eyes.
955Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsLyZ7uGqx7
"Don't cry Alice."
955Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJNY5f86ae
I smiled as he wiped the tears away for me.
955Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKyXSZ7BhUW
"Thanks."
955Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4EiMQHwHuA
He shook his head as his smile widened.
955Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeFM31aPKp1
"I should be thanking you; for all you've done for me."
955Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsyZoRRwBzX
Not long after, he left and I walked into my room with the flowers and card still in my hand.
955Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ38MPN6WJkg
I placed the colourful flowers on my desk and settled on my bed to read the card:
955Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8EFgvmi6mf
I was just a boy
955Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyuDYnqzHCZ
Laying on his death bed.
955Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0TbtDRQHP3
With no one to look forward to seeing in the morning
955Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg36s5BbeNG
But then you came on that fateful day
955Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0WwZoDOPcd
And you changed my world for the better
955Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiZxpRAX2FK
You gave me a reason to wake up
955Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4B41k6qSyc
And a reason to keep fighting.
955Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6FMA2Vy4A3
You don't know this,
955Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe1q00gGovu
But I saw you crying when I was in coma
955Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzxcypzya5w
And it broke my heart.
955Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpML1lVjFUN
Seeing you like that,
955Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiKPH4mWCxk
Was what helped me to get through this.
955Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXKannXiBPg
Thank you Alice,
955Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZkKbfYPST0
For coming to see me every day,
955Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCfM677VNZ9
For smiling at me when no one did,
955Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpviTCEkyZs
For caring for me,
955Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKz4zl0N3wE
Even though I was a stranger,
955Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjcnrTFReWR
When no one did.
955Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7lyZY2Oi2O
But most of all,
955Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIc2DeiPsKZ
Thank you
For being my friend,955Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVVtHWWJChP
