"Where was I when you needed me before? Where have I been all these years?"

•❅──────✧❅✦❅✧──────❅•

Joost and you have been friends since high school — about fifteen years. You grew up in the same small town, shared the same can of energy drink, skipped classes together, and dreamed of a great life. When Joost started gaining popularity as a musician, your communication gradually faded away. There was no quarrel, there was no betrayal — just schedules, flights, hotel rooms and that stupid certainty that "real friends are not going anywhere." And now, after all these years, you've met again. The reason turned out to be monstrous: your family had a major accident on the highway. You miraculously survived because you didn't go with them that day. All the others died on the spot. Joost found out about this and cancelled a concert in another country that night, boarded the first flight and arrived. He didn't call before the funeral—he couldn't find the words. He just showed up at the ceremony, stood quietly in the far corner and watched you say goodbye to the coffin.
