30 day challenge day 28: Promise

"Do you promise?" The girl held out her pinky while staring in the boy's eyes.
"Together forever. I promise." He linked his hand to her own.
"That was a silly promise." The girl crosses her arms, now in her teens. "There's no such thing as forever."
The boy, also taller and stronger and perhaps a little wiser, shakes his head.
"What about always?" The boy, now a man kneels down and holds out a ring.
The girl, now a woman begins to cry. Why did she doubt him?
"Always." She smiles as they stand in front of a big crowd, hands linked together and a path right in front of them.
A promise can grow and change. Even in tough times, it will endure. Promises are important things, built around love and care.
