A Heart-Wrenching Conversation (Funny)

"Oh, are those--" I stuttered, unable to finish my sentence. My heart couldn't bear the pain of such a painful sight.

"Oh," she paused. I could feel the same pain mounting within her heart, "I love them. Why would they do that to such poor things?"

"They will all die down there."

"Gradually-- They'll lose the last breath of air within them, and--" Both of us found it incredibly difficult to hide the pain that crumbled our insides.

"At least, they won't leave this world alone. They have their friends right by their side." I pointed to their side where there were many more of them. "I wish I never had to see this."

"Me too. How can I ever forget them anymore? They'll remain a painful memory I have to--"

"It's okay. They're okay." I said, holding back the tears I wish I could let free.

"I know. It's just-- I love balloons."

"Me too." I sniffed. "Goodness, we really need to grow up!"

########

But honestly, that was a really hurtful sight. An arch, made entirely of balloons, just thrown away into the middle of nowhere! How cruel could they be to do such a thing? Ah, I'll never get over this trauma XD

But it felt so good to relish that inner child in me once again after a very long time ^-^ I mean, conversations like these are what we all live for, aren't they? Just the best. I mean, sure, I exaggerated a little (a little too much) for creative purposes, but I can assure you the emotions were pretty much the same XD
