MILES APART By Natalie Cange
I was about to call him. It was September 11 and this was the moment when we were about to hear each others voices for the first time. It was the moment when the skies would turn red as roses and everything would change. It was the moment where time and patience is needed. Distance is just a test to see how far love travels. I
was 14 and hardly talked to anyone . He was 16. I honestly thought I wasn't worth his time, but right when I was thinking that the phone rang and I answered. It was silent on both ends and I seriously wanted to laugh but I just sat there and held it in. The moment he said hey Natalie I knew that my parents and friends
would eventually find out, but then I wondered if I should keep it as a secret, because most people think it's just a little pretend game you play. I've gotten so used to not being able to him everyday, I can go through the day just fine, but when I see couples together it just hurts inside to know he's not going to be standing by
my side, and it sucks , but distance was how we found each other and can't separate us emotionally.
