I'm going to go and talk to him right now. Wish me luck.
Lizzie slowly walks across the park, 'everyone here seems so happy' she thought 'all these boys and girls, meeting for the first time…' then she notices Navid sitting on the same place she thought he would: the bench, the bench that points exactly opposite to the entrance. He always used to sit there.
"Hey," She said sitting on the free space beside him.
"Hey."
"What're you doing here Nav?"
"sighs and leans back oh nothing, I was just looking at the park for the last time. Y'know, I always used to come here ever since I was a little kid?"
"Yeah." She smiles.
"Now? I think I'm never gonna see this place again."
"Why not? I mean you can always come here at summer right?"
"I don't think so. Coming here all the way from China costs a lot of money."
She sighs again, "Listen, Nav, I'm sorry about what I said the other day. I . . ."
"It's alright Liz. I mean, I'm sorry too . . . but you gotta understand if I . . ."
"We'll still be friends right?"
He sighs as well, "Yeah, of course we will."
Lizzie shoots a fake smile, "thanks." She said that words very slowly, almost a whisper. Navid wraped one arm around her and hugs her tightly, with this, she puts her head on his shoulders and they stay like that for a minute, which felt like forever. "I'm gonna miss you," She said, closing her eyes. "Yeah, me too . . . but y'know, I'm gonna keep on e-mailing ya so bad that you're gonna go completely nuts!" He said to cheer the mood up a bit, she just smiled and added: "Do remember the first time we met?"

"Not that far behind!"
"Oh, you mean last summer? At the prom?"
She smiles again at the thought, "Yeah,"
***FLASH BACK***
"WELCOME to the 7th Grade Junior High School Prom! So without further dew: LET THE PARTY BEGIN!!!!!!" The announcer particularly screamed as the music hits. They played the classic 'As Long As you Love me' By the Back Street Boys. Lizzie was standing by the table, sitting this one out. She had asked Ethan Craft. but Kate had already filled him up. She sighed and leaned back against the table. Just then, a boy came to her, he had on a black T and those cream-colored 'multiple-pockets' pants. His hair looked like as if it was an artificial one, but it wasn't! 'oh my gosh!' She thought, 'who is this beautiful creature?'
"Hey, ah . . . you must be Lizzie right? Lizzie McGuire?" He spoke. "Ah . . . yeah! yeah! how did you know?" 'damn it Liz! Un-cool!' "Gordo told me about you, remember me? I'm Navid! We used to live in the same block when we were . . . well, 2 I guess." Just then, the thought zapped into her head! 'of course! Little Navid! So that's who Gordo was talking about!' "Of COURSE! How are ya?" "Hmm, 'cool' I guess!" And both of them laughed, soon enough, Navid had asked her to dance. And the night drove away so fast that it seemed like only a minute.
****END OF FLASHBACK***
"hmm, well, I was cool wasn't I?" He joked and she laughed. "So," He broke the silence, "I'm planning to shave my hair!"
"No way!"
"Yeah, think Justin Timberlake." "Oh c'mon, with a cool hair like yours, you don't need to shave it off!" she said smiling. "Actually. I'm trying to make this new fad thing; see it's like – Hey, there's Gordo n Miranda!" Lizzie hurriedly jumped off from his shoulders to see her best friend looking at her with a teasing smile. "Hope we are not interrupting your little . . . ahem, dare I say 'r' thing?"
"Hey Miranda," She said, blushing a bit.

So dear Diary, after that, Me, Nav, Gordo n Miranda went to the mall and ate at Burger King like old times. sigh he does make me feel special. He left this morning (whoops! Sorry! I didn't write the date! Its 16-3-2003 now). And I guess it didn't feel that bad, I mean, after saying good-bye to him properly:
~~~~~~*********~~~~~~
"Gonna miss ya," Gordo and Navid shared a long hug that lasted for a full minute. 'Best friends are special' Lizzie thought, she and Miranda stood by the side. Tears dropping from their eyes. Navid turned to Miranda, who said "I'm not gonna say it! 'Cause this isn't -" "Good bye?" "I'm not saying it!" And they hugged. "Cheer up guys, its not like the end of the world! I'm gonna return after 2 years right? Right?" Lizzie stepped up, "yeah," she slowly whispered and hugged him. "Listen," Navid whispered into her ear, "Here, take this video tape," she took it from his hand, confused. "I've explained everything in this. Play it tomorrow." She nodded her head. "SO guys," He flung his back-pack over his shoulders. "Guess this see-ya later. Then." "NOT good bye! Just . . . c'ya." Gordo informed. "Yep. C'mon! group hug!"
~~~~~~*********~~~~~~~
And that's how he left. He told me to see this tape. I haven't yet. It's not 'tomorrow' yet. Yes Dear Diary, I do feel sad without him but he said that he'd keep in touch right? I even discovered that he left me an email. Said not to worry. He said that if I were sad, it would make him sad. And I don't wanna do that! Well, its getting late, and I'm glad that I'm over the whole sad thing. I said good-bye to him smiling. That's like as good as not saying good bye at all! I'll write back as soon as I see that tape. Good night.
A/N: Thanks for the review! (Although just one :) Hope you guys like this one. Please tell me how it is and I'll submit the next chapter tomorrow! If I can write it!)
