Peaza

We nicknamed this boy "Pizza" because that is what Eric had thought a translator had said when we asked the boy's name. I couldn't speak with him, but we had a really good time together. We went fishing, I let him listen to my iPod, we would play with a flashlight at night, and we connected in a way that I didn't think possible. How could I feel so close to someone who I have never spoke to?
When I left, all I could really do was give him a hug and say "bye". I left not thinking I would see him again, but I will, and I can't wait.
I hope our fishing river hasn't dried up.
