Emotions...? (short story 11)

The two little girls stood there looking at each other, one with tears in her eyes and the other one so cool as if she didn't know that this was the last time they see each other for a very long time. The cool one acted as if she doesn't really care, no goodbye, no farewell, just kept ignoring the emotional little girl who was desperately waiting for some kind of acknowledgment of the wonderful time they just spent together; running freely in the fields filled with blooming flowers, late nights in pj's with their imaginary figures, dance, music, cakes and laughter. 

That's the way we are. Human beings. Some like to show emotions, others don't. Is it that they feel the same but scared to show? too vulnerable? or is it that they really don't care or see no point? Is it that the ones who show emotions only do it for attention? or is it just what it is without meaning to it at all...?

Perhaps all of the above and even most likely for adults, but the way little kids react in these moments of truth is quite interesting to watch. Is this an act of fear, joy, or pure indifference...
