Tonight I'm feeling a little sad...just a little.

As I settle into my new normal of life as a single mom...I'm realizing that my friend is gone. I miss my friend.
See H and I were still good friends right up until the bomb. In fact in the weeks that followed the bomb he was finding it hard to stop reaching out to me as a friend. It was like a reflex.
But that's gone now. I miss the person who I just used to chat about stuff with.
I wonder if he ever looks at me and misses that too. When he looks at me now, it's like he doesn't see me. He looks at me like I'm a stranger to him...and I don't recognize him either. How does this happen to a person?

Anyway, before I go any further into pity-land...
I just miss my friend. That's all.
