Tom and I
My best friend in elementary school was Tom. When we met, he was six and so was I. We were in the same class in school. We sat together and always played together in the break. His family lived near my family, so we saw each other after school most days. In the summer, we went swimming in the ocean when the weather was hot. In the winter, we played video games a lot. When his family moved to another city, I was very sad. I’ll never forget the times we spent together.
Walking down the street last Saturday, I met Tom for the first time in years. When we moved, we were ten years old, and now we are thirty. We sat down for a coffee and remembered the old times. His family lived near my family when we were children, but now they still live in different cities. I am married now and he is still single. We now live near each other. It's good to have him around again.
