When they first met they really liked each other.
It was amazing that they had so much in common. They enjoyed the same kind of music, movies, TV shows, singers, and even food! They spent as much time together as they could.
Then, things began to change.
It seemed to be the case that she was always right, so, of course, that made him wrong.
What she wanted was always so important. His needs were looked upon as irrelevant. She would insist on what they would do together.
After a while, he realised just how tired of the situation he was.
Over time he began to prefer the company of others and so did she.
They hardly ever speak now.
I guess that’s just the way it is with eight-year-olds.
