I had a friend once. A dear friend. I turned him in to save his life. He died. But he wanted it that way. Things went bad for my friend, and they went bad for me, too.
i love the ending. Since then, they never see each other again. but she believes that he is still alive, since it snows every winter. its still a weird and boring small town, but its a warm and beautiful story. i should say that its limited by tech and time.
