Eli, my cousin is one of the only people I've had around since birth, I mean this in the sense, that yes I had my parents and other family, but she is the only person who took care of me as someone more than a cousin, she is basically my sister, my other half, we did everything together until she moved, whenever I think of life getting me down, I remember my cousins promise the day she moved "i never Walk alone" Even if she moved I call her as often as I can, I always play games and text her, we keep each other updated and whenever there is a surprise visit, we bet on who cries first. My wish every year for my birthday is to see her there. I could care less for where we are, as long as we are next to each other I am happy, even if I lose some friends, she always reminds me that I still have her. my family, my friend, my sister. This photo is before the covid broke out, we clung on to each other after driving to oregon to meet up, she is in texas and I'm in California, that day was so vivid. The minute she pulled up in the car, i ran after her and we both yelled "Your not alone anymore" we starting crying and we didn't let go. She means the world to me
