Callie
"Remember when we were little and everything seamed easy? What happened to those days?"
"I don't know Callie. Things change, people get older, everything gets complicated."
"It's just like that song. Landslide."
"Sing it for me Callie."
"You know I can't sing."
"Come on Callie, just that one part, please."
"Fine, but that's only because I hate when you beg. 'I've been afraid of changing 'cause I've built my life around you. But time age bolder, children get older, I'm getting older too."
"I know this is hard Callie, but don't cry. We'll be together again someday. Just wait."
He hugged her and she disappeared into the depths of her family's van.
Five years later 13 year old Callie was sitting on the couch watching MTV when something made her look up. She'd lost contact with her best friend, but all of a sudden there he was. Singing a song with his two brothers. A song about a nonsense word. An Mmmbop.
