It’s been twenty -seven years since I’ve seen his face.
White and fluffy, hiding an adorable black button nose that invites a desperate need to boop.
Life descended into chaos not long after we met, and the spiral took decades to settle.
House to house, the bounce of instability, the gathering of no moss. None of them were home, just a place to be, until the next one.
But I’ve been here a while now. And can no longer ignore the roots that have sprouted. It's finally time to release my childhood friend from his black plastic prison.
We’re home.
