Runaway puppy

Three people in the picture, the perfect guy secretly wishing he was clearly shown. The perfect girl wishing she was the only one left. The other guy, wishing he could stay longer. All three are living this lie. The lie that secretly symbolize a single wish. The wish being the need to stay in the picture but with a true story. Each person shows the picture telling and creating their own lie. A lie that finds the other and comes together like a story. A real story. But everyone believed their story. Everyone nods as they listen. Everyone except one girl, the bestfriend. She believed there was a whole other story written behind the picture. That story was another one told. Told to prefect girl. The other guy is holding the prefect girl's hand while the perfect girl looks at him, smiling. Everyone sees a happy couple. Yet bestfriend and perfect girl knows otherwise. Behind a tree, everyone could see a shadow, a shadow of a guy perhaps. Everyone saw the other lover of perfect girl. Everyone saw perfect guy. Yet bestfriend and perfect girl also knew otherwise. Once you see the picture and hear the story with it, everything might make so much sense and you might just believe. But when you hear the story, read the words written on the picture, you'll see something new. Something more complicated. Something less of a real story, its something true. Its a story of sadness and confusion. People might blame perfect girl, laugh at the other guy and take pity on perfect guy. But really the they're the last people we all should blame. They're actually the three people we should applaud to, the people we should smile and nod at. The story written behind them are stories that will surely bring out tears and sudden aw. Then thank bestfriend for such a story. Its brilliant to come up with something like this.
