Reunited After A Decade
As the once two former best friends reached the same gas station, they both thought one thing alike; they didn’t know if the person they would meet would be who they had been friends with ten years ago.
They had to separate because of the jobs that they had gotten. Austin moved to japan as a missionary, he made a family there and had been there till the previous year. Asher had stayed in America and built himself a business upon stocks.
They both pulled in at different times but within the same hour, for they had coordinated it. When Austin pulled in and parked he got out of his car, pulled out his phone and texted Asher.
‘Here, where are you?’
‘By the entrance of the gas station.
Getting out right now.’
Austin then heard a door slam behind him and he looked behind to see his best friend walk around their truck. Austin waved and walked torwards him not believing the moment.
Asher walked to him and they shared a massive hug, that lasted a couple minutes. When they let go, Austin spoke first.
“You’ve changed a lot,” they both started laughing. Asher was tall muscular unlike himself who was shorter than average. Asher was wearing a black tuxedo for in a couple of hours he had a meeting but after that he was free for a while. Austin wore beige jeans with a grey t-shirt on.
“Well, how’ve you been? How’s the familly? How’s the job!?” Asked Asher eager to know that had happened in his life. Austin told him eveything. His job, family, mental health issues, evrything, and so did Asher.
Eventually they had to go their separate ways again but they kept in touch and talked almost every month. They both realized that it had been too long and that they could not wait longer than a year to talk. Their friendship was like it was never before. Better than ever.
