He woke up with a smile. He had not been this happy in a long while. He was genuinely happy. He remembered how waking up seemed like a burden, but that already seemed like a distant memory. A memory that was fading rapidly, "going to the void" he joked. He had been joking more than ever recently, he had been laughing more than ever recently. He felt changed. Felt valued. Ever since he met her, he felt cherished...now everyday he would wake up with a smile, would spend the day smiling, would look forward to talk to her, would look forward to meet her. His new friend had been an instant life changer, he would often call her a life saviour. He was very thankful to have her, for he believed that she was God-sent to save him from the ever-present sadness, and he couldn't have been more thankful. Everyday he would thank God for the beautiful soul he had found in her, a soul he thought he knew since eternity...a soul beautiful enough to change the world, a soul worth protecting, a soul worth protecting...
