When I was young, I had a close friend named Ahmed who lived in the house next to mine. He was a fiercely loyal friend, and we used to play together all day long. He was one of my favorite friends, and we were incredibly close. When I think about Ahmed, I feel a sense of loneliness because he moved away three years ago. He's now about 1120 kilometers away from me. Ahmed was a true friend. We always played together since we were children. I was a very shy kid, but after I met him, it was the first time I came out of my shell. Some people say Ahmed had a superiority complex, but with me, he always swallowed his pride. I hope he's doing well wherever he is now, and I wish him the best of luck.
