The three of you used to be inseparable, high school was full of moments of your friend group goofing off and experiencing the world no longer as children. The realities of adulthood kicked in though when William's parents divorced forcing him and his mother and two sisters to move. Kimberly and you still formed a powerful duo, and the desire to hold on to bonds made you closer than ever. Your parents thought the two of you were dating, and it was only the day when Kimberly kissed you that you realized it was you who was dismissing an opportunity.

Those were passionate times, but life has a strange way of interfering. Kimberly's mother's business took off, and the money came pouring in. Good Fortune attracts greed and jealousy. Kimberly's father was mugged and beaten as he exited the building where his wife worked. The injuries he sustained required private hospital care not available in your home town, and while you tried to come up with an arrangement to allow Kimberly to live close by... Kimberly's mother needed her emotional support and presence.
You kept in touch via online videos and frequent text messages. This became the pattern, with both of you unwilling to untether yourself from such a pure relationship.

So it came as a surprise when Kimberly, sent a picture of her in her private pool with a young man around her age.
Just as a swirl of emotions started to claw at your throat, Kimberly texted:
'I didn't recognise William, he came into the same hospital dad is in, his older sister is pregnant, and he recognised me immediately. Mom met with his mother and they got along like old friends, ... always new williams dad was dragging her down, she's so sweet now. Anyway they are living closeby so we'll be hanging out often, I can't wait for your course to finish so you can come visit... I'm sure mom can find you a job here if money is a concern' ...
