Recently I ran into a friend who I haven’t seen for ages.
A few years ago she got an irresistable offer for the job position she had always dreamt of. But there was a ‘but’ — if she wanted the job, she had to move to another city.

Nothing bad happened.
From time to time we were still reaching out to each other.
