Different Meanings

It was one of those friendships that happened without either of us really knowing how. Suddenly, friends became best friends after realizing how much we had in common. The perfect situation for a new girl in a middle school full of old friends.

Victoria and I sat together in every class we shared together for two years. We spoke on the phone constantly, and spent weekends with each other. She had other friends, sure, but they were busy with their new friends. So, I filled the void for her. We became inseparable.

But then, I moved away. Just an hour away, and I showed up every weekend. I visited her when I could, and still called every Monday and Friday night. After awhile, she got busy. Stopped responding to my emails, didn't return my calls, and just stopped caring.

It was a brief two years, with many ups and downs. I wish I could've tried a little harder, and maybe, just maybe, we'd still be friends.
