Bestfriends

I can still remember how we met. How pretty and stunning she was the first time I saw her. I guess, she was wearing yellow then, if I'm not mistaken. She was a very charming person that time, always smiling and laughing with lil' things and nonsense stuffs around her. It was then that we became friends. 

We were actually 3 in the group. Oh, I think we apparently started as 4. But I don't know what happened, I can't remember why the other one had to leave. English plus. The way in which we first met. We had been together the whole class and we were very close that time to made others think that we knew each other even before. I remember one of our classmates asking "Magkakilala ba kayo tlga? Para kasing ang close close nyo na." I don't know if that would be the exact words she uttered but I guess that's what she really meant. We've been in that class for 1 week, more or less 9 hours a day. 

Life is really unpredictable. We had really no idea what would happen after that class knowing we are to take up different courses and to meet up new friends. I was actually convincing her to shift from her course to my course. But that was really impossible. Her parents have their personal plans for her and one of them is for her to be a successful nurse someday. My parents? They wanted me to take up a business related course. So our plans in life never really match at all. One in field of business, the other in the field of medicine. How contradicting. 

But whatever our plans in our lives may be, never be a barrier to the friendship we had built and started. That even made us more close. I was saying we started as 4 in the group, then 3 and now the two of us left. It was May 25 when we finally realize we were more than just a friend and more than just being a classmate. We then became best friends. We hang out even after the class, and share more parts of our lives. But when the school year officially came, we rarely see each other because of random personal reasons. 

Much more than not seeing each other often, I still believe that she is still and she will always be my best friend. She is the first one to know my secrets especially when it comes to my crushes. She always gives her exceptional advice that no one could ever beat up. We make sure that when we got the chance to see each other despite our contradicting schedules, we make the most of it. Both of us have been present in special days of our lives like during our birthdays. We really make time to bond though we have our own barkadas at school. Still, that made not any change of our friendship. She is still my best friend.

I remember we had a pinky promise not to break up our present boyfriends because of the reason I really can't understand. I suppose there are more promise we can make as being a best friend, but why that? Haha! We really are stupid. I admit. And that's something that made us common. Something that made us, "US". 

I love her and I always find ways to say her how important she is to me. She is more than a best friend now. She is more like a sister. 

If there could be one wish my genie would grant me, I would wish that I could have the power to protect her from any harm. I don't want to see her crying. Or even hear words of griefs and disappointments from her.  It breaks my heart even more. If only I could get at least half of her pain when she's in trouble, I will. But that's pretty impossible. I really just assume there is a genie for me, for her.

Thank you. Thank you for everything you've done for me. For every word you expressed to show me how you feel. For every advice, for every good and bad, and for constantly bugging me to be okay. Thank you for saying thank you to me for simple things I've done. You don't really need to. 

Sorry for not saying sorry before. I know there are times I disappoint you or there maybe a time when you get mad at me, and I failed to say sorry. I didn't mean to upset you. 

I'll not say any promise. I am too afraid to break that. But I will, I will always be your best friend. I will always be here. You know that. I love you, Bes.
