I have a bestfriend. Maybe some of you has too. Isn't it the best feeling? Knowing that someone is always there for you, and vice versa. I met her during my elementary years. Yes, she is my childhood bestfriend. We share common interests. We both love dancing when we were kids. I can still remember how we always choreographed the dance steps with our class' dance performance.
My mom never wanted me to learn how to bike, but since I have my superwoman saviour bestfriend, atleast I experienced it. She is indeed the 'best' friend for me. Until the 5th grade came. She was transferred to a different school because of family matter. We parted ways. From 1st grade to 4th, she was the top 1 in class, and I was the top 2. When she transferred, I became our class' top 1. It has never been an achievement to me back the because I felt I lost my best buddy. But, she promised that things will get better and she will still find ways to visit me. She never broke her promised. Every weekend, she was visiting me. She never came back toy our school until 6th grade.
Junior High School waved to us. Before graduating in grade school, I already talked to my parents about the school where I wanted to finish my junior high school. It was the school me and my bestfriend talked about. We wanted to study in the same school, again. It happened.
High school is the most memorable years of everyone. We have faced a lot of ups and downs back then. We fought about little things. We got jealous because we met a lot and been with different circle of friends. Everything was a roller coaster to us. But we never thought there was a lot worse to come. She was influenced by someone. She was told to turn her back on me, and she did. I didn't know where to hold on to that time. I didn't know what to believe, what to say, and what to do. And the best thing I can give her, is let her go. I did let her go. I got tired of waiting and waiting for her to come back. The more that I wanted my bestfriend back, the more she pushes herself away from me. It didn't go well at first. I saw her at her worst. I saw how she has been manipulated and influenced by people who does not really care about her, but rather is ruining her. But, I still loved her. I still cared for her. I still wanted to hug her. But, I know I lost her.
Years passed by, and I watched her fix herself. I watched her change. I healed myself from the pain she caused the moment she decided to turn her back on me. One day, I was staring on her profile picture in Facebook. Thinking maybe I should message her. Minutes later, I found myself composing a message for her. I never doubted on messaging her first, she was still my bestfriend. I said sorry. I said I missed her so much. And I asked if I could get her back. She cried. She was sorry for everything she has done. She was sorry for betraying me. She was sorry for not being herself back then. What can I do? I love her so much.
Today, we are just so fine and happy. Sometimes we are talking about what happened to us years ago, and we are now just laughing on the decisions we made before.
