In this short spoken reflection, the speaker recounts the deliberate effort they put into building and sustaining a partnership with a person named Tiago. Despite living in different towns, the speaker made a point to meet Tiago whenever he was in town, and later, while both residing in Southern California, regularly drove several hours to Long Beach to hang out. The narrative emphasizes that the relationship is valued for personal enjoyment and friendship, not merely for strategic advantage, highlighting the speaker’s commitment to maintaining the connection through consistent, intentional actions.
