Strangers can become bestfriends just as easy as bestfriends can become strangers.
I knew I shouldn't be jealous, but I can't help it.
I have not forgotten the way he used to say that he was going to stay forever, with so much confidence oozing out of his words while sporting a huge grin on his handsome face. I have not forgotten how he used to cheer me up whenever I was feeling down and stayed with me through my bad moods. Even as I half-heartedly tell him to go away whenever he was irritating me or trying to wake me up from my slumber.
But slowly, he started to drift away.
At first, I didn't mind it because it meant more peace for me. I thought it was just temporary. Api did have a lot of tendencies to be distant and hang out with the others.
But he never came back.
And he will never come back.
I know it because I see the happy glint in his eyes that used to be present whenever he was with me appear whenever he was with them. Because he was the happiest that I've seen him whenever he was hanging out with his new best friends. I know it because he knocked at their rooms whenever he was bored when he used to knock at mine.
I know it because he never talked to me again.
It hurts, to have a best friend suddenly turn into a stranger.

Api had a mission for him to lead for the first time and he was really excited, especially when he discovered that he got to pick his team. He immediately picked Daun and Angin, of course. But there was a problem.
He needed a group of four people, and there was only three of them.
"How about Air? He's still part of the team," he heard Quake say.
Api scoffed. "Air's always asleep. It's not like he can be of use to this mission. I think I'm fine with only the three of us. We will manage, just like before."
I suddenly felt like someone cut a huge hole in my heart as tears prickled in my eyes. I turned over my bed as I heard footsteps pass by the door of my room.
I guess I'll just sleep instead, and hope that it's all just a dream, I thought.
But I know I'm just fooling myself. He'll never come back. And I accepted that fact.
Because he meant what he said.
So why am I crying over it?!

Challenge: Air, no specific scenario decided on.
