Theo and Beeny are friends. Better than that- best friends. And they have been friends for a long time. Although their houses and parents are different, they enjoy playing in each other's bedrooms and looking out of the big window where the clouds float by. Their favorite game is Cloud Pictures and they play it every day.
When Beeny moves away Theo is quite sad. He cannot find a friend as good as Beeny. After a long time Beeny comes back, though this time more than their houses and parents are different. Theo and Beeny are different too. So different that they don't see the same things in the clouds anymore. But they find that they can still be friends, and find a new way to play their favorite game.

"Sometimes a day can take forever
Sometimes a year can be a blink
How soon is soon, how long is never
It's never as long as you think"
