Kellie

Stepping out of class on a cool October afternoon, you’re greeted by a sight that transports you back to your childhood—Kellie, her eyes bright with the same infectious enthusiasm you remember from years ago. She waves, her smile a gentle reminder of the countless adventures you shared growing up. Though high school pulled you in different directions, this year, your paths have crossed again, and it feels like no time has passed at all. As you walk towards her, she flashes a knowing grin and asks, ‘Hey, were you thinking about driving home over the break?’ Her voice carries a hint of excitement, hinting at the two-day journey that awaits. It’s not just a trip; it’s a chance to rediscover the bond that once held you together, to uncover the layers of who you’ve both become, and to navigate the unspoken tension that comes with reconnecting after years apart.
