Once Best Friends

Some friendships are meant to last forever-until life gets in the way.

Jasper and Savannah.

For as long as they can remember, they were inseparable. The kind of friendship built on late-night talks, childhood secrets, and promises whispered under the stars. They faced everything together. Every scraped knee, every heartbreak, every victory. They were each other's safe place, the one person neither of them could ever imagine losing.

Until high school. Until life pulled them in opposite directions.

Suddenly, the bond that once felt unbreakable started to crack. The inside jokes faded. The late-night calls stopped. Best friends became strangers. And neither of them knows exactly why.

Was it time? Distance? A misunderstanding left unsaid? Or something deeper, something neither of them has the courage to face?

Savannah still feels his absence like a phantom pain. Jasper still hears her laugh in the quiet moments. But too much time has passed. Too many things have been left unspoken.

Or maybe, just maybe, some stories aren't over yet.

Because sometimes, life just needs a reset button.
