Chapter 2.

We have all felt a presence that protects us, which we unconsciously call ¿an imaginary friend? ¿Guardian angel?, Many times the absence of our parents leads us to create a fictional character to play with, but ¿what if it wasn't imaginary but real? ...

There are things that we don't know about our past, because we cling to living in a present that fills us with uncertainty...

 Today you have surely played with your friend, darling, said Sam, the mother of the little 7-year-old girl, Reena Claymore while she tucked her in.

Yes mommy, all day I have played with my little friend, which she said with the shine that reflected in her eyes and the most innocent smile at her young age.

Sam went to rest, while Reena was thinking about Darren and how fun he made her days, since she had known him for as long as she could remember. He was a tall 19-year-old boy; with very pale and soft skin; always wearing dark colored clothes that highlighted her beautiful smile and her beautiful sea-green eyes…

¿Who would say that at only 7 years old she could know that she already loved him?

But not all happiness lasts forever…

Until one day, when she was running with all her might looking for Darren near the pond behind the house and shouted: PIGGG ¿where are you?… Reena shouted with all her might looking for her friend Darren whom she called Pig, since he used to play with her and put pig ears on her ears, so, while she walked to the edge of that pond, she slipped and fell in… she tried her best to get out, but it was impossible, since she didn't even know how to swim, she felt her body completely fade away and she shouted his name before sinking… ¡¡¡DARRENN!! ¡¡¡Help meee!!!…

Suddenly she felt strong arms pull her out of the water bringing her back to life.

Daughter, ¿what were you doing that you fell into the pond?, Her father, whose name was Constantino, asked her… I was looking for Darren, dad…

Immediately, the girl could see how her parents looked at each other in surprise at that name that they seemed to have forgotten

¿Who? My mother asked, a little scared.

To Darren, mother, he said that he would come to play with me.

It can't be, we're leaving here, said little Reena's father while he carried her in his arms.

Reena then went to her room to pack her clothes while crying because she would have to get away from Darren and she didn't know how to lose, but she didn't know what to do either, because she was a girl of barely 7 years old who didn't want to lose her imaginary friend, who was no longer as imaginary as she had supposed, because it seems that Darren was someone that Sam and Constantino, Reena's parents had met before…

Darren, ¿why didn't you help me? If you had, I wouldn't have to leave this place, the little girl murmured sadly while tears ran down her cheeks, to which Darren, who appeared out of nowhere, said to her: You are not going to leave Reena…

That's what my parents said, so I have to go with them, but I don't want to leave you, but he, holding the girl's wrist tightly, very upset, tells her that she is not going to leave…to which Reena, in pain, demanded: Let go of my hand Darren, you are hurting me.

I swear that you will not forget me Reena; and ¡¡¡YOU WILL COME BACK I SWEAR!!!
