"So I drop her off to the airport this morning at 1 am.

I load her bag on the trolley, and she's standing there on the sidewalk. I look at her, with her big green eyes, and say,

"I guess this is it"

"Yeah I guess so."

We hug.

"Give me your right hand"

She sticks out her right hand.

"This is for good luck."

And I place my lucky 50p coin (one of two I always carry in my pocket), and I close her fist.

"Keep this with you."

"Ok"

"And this..."

I give her one of my green bracelets and tighten it around her wrist.

"I remember those," she whispers with her soft voice.

"Never take it off. I'm wearing one as well, the same colour."

"Thank you," she says.

I wrap my arm around her and hug her again, while she gives me a hug from my side. We almost don't let go.

I kiss her forehead, and tell her I will talk to her online.

And she walks in.

I drive off with tears in my eyes wondering if I'll ever see her again."
