One day, I went out to do some exercise. After running for
a while, I got very thirsty and stopped to buy
something to
drink. Suddenly, I saw Banu, the girl who studied with me at
the primary school. She was talking to the shop assistant.
I remember sitting at the same desk with her for
four years.
I will never forget sharing my first secrets with
her. At the end
of grade 4, her father got a job offer, which meant moving to
another city. Before she left for a new place, she gave me a
phone number so that I would call and talk to her.
