Alice:

I stood at my door, looking at the unfamiliar guy standing before me.
737Please respect copyright.PENANAUhL74vC8D1
The flowers and card in his hands peaked my interest but his face showed sadness.
737Please respect copyright.PENANA1ELSWF7c3D
"How can you not notice that it's me?" he asked, looking directly into my eyes.
737Please respect copyright.PENANAkQAALNNw8N
I tried to survey his face but there wasn't anything which rang with recognition.
737Please respect copyright.PENANAXjgCCaST1f
He sighed when I didn't reply and placed the flowers and card into my hands.
737Please respect copyright.PENANAwqyFqG0TwW
"Well these are for you."
737Please respect copyright.PENANAyAc7OR2VVR
His voice was so soft that I almost didn't hear him.
737Please respect copyright.PENANAFZyhZmZiza
He turned around and walked away with his head hung low.
737Please respect copyright.PENANAcgywMy42HJ
I felt a pang of sympathy in my heart as I looked at him walking away.
737Please respect copyright.PENANAt4QTPBtGD3
Did I really know him like he claimed I did?
737Please respect copyright.PENANAwdAbOZW6HO
When he was almost at the end of the walkway, he turned around and raised a hand to his head.
737Please respect copyright.PENANAbn15pNU3vp
He pulled his hair back to make it look almost as if he was bald.
737Please respect copyright.PENANA36HajKPcSF
Bald
737Please respect copyright.PENANAidRNg3hPd5
Instantly, I felt myself remembering the day that I had seen Leo without his hat.
737Please respect copyright.PENANAsJYNJc9zw2
But how could it be?
737Please respect copyright.PENANAzQROpPE5x1
How could he have survived?
737Please respect copyright.PENANAtEqbFXHe2J
Before I could stop myself, I felt my legs carry me to him.
737Please respect copyright.PENANAS3CbyDmZ2K
I hugged him tightly when I was close enough.
737Please respect copyright.PENANABwzQPjlAyp
And I felt him hug me back tightly.
737Please respect copyright.PENANADsx34mE9VS
"You remembered," I heard him say.
737Please respect copyright.PENANAoOEp27uk3X
"I'm so sorry Leo. You just looked so different."
737Please respect copyright.PENANAfLjXI8w58B
I couldn't help the few stray tears which escaped my eyes.
737Please respect copyright.PENANAWAAOWPdQdo
"Don't cry Alice."
737Please respect copyright.PENANAsTeww36g3E
I smiled as he wiped the tears away for me.
737Please respect copyright.PENANAH2g8TZ6XV9
"Thanks."
737Please respect copyright.PENANADEAkZTkbhL
He shook his head as his smile widened.
737Please respect copyright.PENANAWRXiiIeQS7
"I should be thanking you; for all you've done for me."
737Please respect copyright.PENANAHppIGPyXfk
Not long after, he left and I walked into my room with the flowers and card still in my hand.
737Please respect copyright.PENANAeZyBnSx2o8
I placed the colourful flowers on my desk and settled on my bed to read the card:
737Please respect copyright.PENANArwrgIyxUrS
I was just a boy
737Please respect copyright.PENANAqN21bDhpov
Laying on his death bed.
737Please respect copyright.PENANAVUsIIJYjQX
With no one to look forward to seeing in the morning
737Please respect copyright.PENANAFbp8CahRFZ
But then you came on that fateful day
737Please respect copyright.PENANASu2H8wqMxq
And you changed my world for the better
737Please respect copyright.PENANAztz4nUfobO
You gave me a reason to wake up
737Please respect copyright.PENANA6CbygFD26V
And a reason to keep fighting.
737Please respect copyright.PENANAHmoMNCWuaj
You don't know this,
737Please respect copyright.PENANA6TmEgMoqoY
But I saw you crying when I was in coma
737Please respect copyright.PENANAQBdiNEL2VE
And it broke my heart.
737Please respect copyright.PENANAcgV1kGDvKX
Seeing you like that,
737Please respect copyright.PENANAYm06JzkU0e
Was what helped me to get through this.
737Please respect copyright.PENANAvJaHvfSbpU
Thank you Alice,
737Please respect copyright.PENANAsS98Z4zR2z
For coming to see me every day,
737Please respect copyright.PENANAuk2uUJTZsu
For smiling at me when no one did,
737Please respect copyright.PENANAb2jUvwWBJ4
For caring for me,
737Please respect copyright.PENANApdF1I7kqxG
Even though I was a stranger,
737Please respect copyright.PENANAq4VoUkGHMy
When no one did.
737Please respect copyright.PENANAQSJ2ebWgUB
But most of all,
737Please respect copyright.PENANAGkldZ2xyWi
Thank you
