My best friend's getting married

Tweet

I'll be going home in a few weeks to attend a very happy event: my bestie's wedding! I'm so excited and so happy for her, but at the same time it brings out so many memories and I can't help being nostalgic... a bit sad, too... It feels like only yesterday, I came to my new school when I was 7 and there was a little girl with curly blonde hair who liked to play a lot and giggle. A few years later we shared the same desk, she could get really stubborn at times but she was the kindest and most supportive person I've ever met. We had tickle fights when we were angry at one another, I even tickled her in class when she wanted to give up on an exam... Good times! High school ended, we enrolled in different universities, but we still spent every moment of free time together. We had a friend who was going through a tough period, so when she called us in the middle of the night, we would go... No matter if it was 2 a.m. she was an amazing friend and never refused to help. When I married and moved away, she was heartbroken. She didn't speak to me for a while but eventually we talked it out. She is the sister that was always there for me. She is the angel that took me in her arms to comfort me when I cried. She is the devil who teased and tickled me when I was shy, just to make me smile and have a good time. Although I wasn't always such a good friend to her, she forgave me and kept being there for me. She is the best person I know.
