Past, Present, and Future

It's gone.
What?
You heard me. It's gone.
But-but, why?
It no longer holds any use to us.
Of course it does! Why do you say that?
Don't you see?
Obviously not.
Ugh, are we still children in your eyes?
No, but-
Exactly. So why should we hold onto the past?
Those were our memories!
And why were they so important to you?
They were part of who we are.
You need a tangible object to relay the past?
No, but-
So why are you so upset with me?
I'm not.
Your tone is bitter. You're angry with me.
I'm not.
I was wrong.
No... You were right.
I way?
Of course. Memories are the past.
Today is the present.
And we are the future.
