Submitted to Contest #104

Two girls were friends ever since kindergarten, and their names were Lucy and Selena. When the two girls first met, they weren't as close, due to their obvious differences in personality.

In all of my 23 years of life, I’ve had to learn a lot of harsh lessons...The one that hurt the most was about romantic love. When I was around seventeen years old, I met this dude that I’ll call “L”. When we first met in a multiplayer game, “L” wasn’t welcoming to me but something just pulled me towards him. I couldn’t explain it but at that moment I didn’t want to lose him. I asked him if I could add him to my in-game friend’s list. He gladly obliged and said yes so I was pretty happy about that. The days went on and turned into months as ...
