him from all the bullies that made him cry but what we really bonded over was basketball. we played against each other everyday. he never won a single game as far as i recall but he took his losses like a man and never gave up. that quality was one of the things i admired about him. unfortunately my family had to move when i was about to go to highschool and we kinda lost touch after that. never really knew what became of him. he told me once that his dream was to be a zookeeper because he wanted to take care of giraffes and scorpions. i hope he got to accomplish everything he wanted. would love play another game against him if we ever cross paths again so we can find out, once and for all, who the better player really is
