June 11 arrived faster than anyone expected.

The house was filled with bags, books, and neatly folded clothes. Everyone was busy helping Arjun prepare for his first day at the hostel. But his younger sister, Aisha, sat quietly in a corner, watching.

For years, Arjun had been her best friend. They fought over the TV remote, shared snacks in secret, and stayed up late telling scary stories. Now, he was leaving.

That evening, the sky turned orange as the sun began to set. Arjun found Aisha sitting on the terrace.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGdZX1nCIhI
"Why are you sitting here alone?" he asked.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgGsc47HX2N
Aisha looked away. "Nothing."
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvrVbgzeg6I
Arjun sat beside her. "You're going to miss me, aren't you?"
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWhxKWdBXil
Aisha tried to smile. "No."
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQuqrUEzEo
But her voice shook.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ5DW6VdyRg
For a moment, neither of them spoke.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnS006MhF02
Then Arjun pulled out a small notebook from his pocket.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHq3kp4Suk5
"What's that?" Aisha asked.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQpbhLwch6
"It's for you."
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRYtsJboi40
She opened it. On the first page was written:
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwAqAWOh0a7
'For the days you miss me.'
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY8XqBnQl2e
The next pages were filled with little notes.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ367qT5aGi6
"If you're sad, read page 10."
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6RabidLlzn
"If Mom scolds you, read page 22."
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8fR6qx8q7H
"If you miss our ghost stories, read page 35."
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7LgY7qTrOI
Aisha's eyes filled with tears.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr3nfmnzp5f
"You made this for me?"
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDRNDrtZX5Z
Arjun nodded.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9iCKFO1kOK
The next morning came too quickly.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoqnja98g7b
The car stood outside the house. The bags were loaded. Everything was ready.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiJZvg7UYI3
Everyone said their goodbyes.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQPxxaMBJ1F
Aisha stood silently near the gate.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡltv4iy9Gq5
Arjun walked over and gently patted her head.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdus7bXcY9D
"I'll come back during holidays."
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAYKwy7NrIT
"What if you make new friends and forget me?" she whispered.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUrwn16A8Ae
Arjun smiled.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpq2QTFec3B
"Impossible."
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVQrCYWTyub
He pointed at her heart.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJFY3Y0KhTe
"As long as I'm here, I'll never forget you."
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJTo0pqskxe
A tear rolled down Aisha's cheek.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZCZ5etVgeX
The car started moving.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2KR9Y31qLT
She waved until the car became a tiny dot on the road.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Ep1UYoOoW
Then it disappeared.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIn8jeGdaTk
For the first time, the house felt strangely quiet.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxSTSYdOY9E
That night, Aisha opened the notebook and turned to page 10.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNbNyl1JHYh
It said:
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLyTP7lC4rv
"Distance can change where we are, but it can never change who we are to each other."
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ0FMeaVdXH
Aisha smiled through her tears.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP0gp78y7ss
Her brother was far away.
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBI3WYDpM3V
But he was still with her.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX9PX8gCTyZ
