Question Posted Wednesday December 29 2004, 12:13 pm
those names are not the real names of people. i just made them up since you don't really want real names revealed. but anyway...
i'm gwen and my best friend in the whole world's name is sally. she has another best friend, molly. molly and sally have known eachother since they were born! their families are really close. they go on vacations together, they go to eachother's house practically everyday, and if you're wondering, they obviously live on the same street. they've been great --- no, BEST --- friends for a very, very long time. they've lived near eachother all their life, and they've gone to the same school all their life (i'm pretty sure). as you can see, they're incredibly close. aside from all that, they have lots of common likes and dislikes. one thing i know they both like is sports.
as for me, i don't really like sports. i do things like dance and lacrosse has always seemed really fun to me (though i've never tried it), but i know that i'm a real girly-girl at heart. anyway...
in 5th grade i, gwen, met sally. i knew we were perfect for eachother...because sometimes sally can have that really girly side of herself revealed. so we clicked just like that and became really really really good friends.
now molly isn't very happy about this; she LOVES sally and will never let her go. she doesn't believe in two best friends. she does like me as a friend, but she surely won't let me take sally away from her. so we grew apart a little. then over the summer, we remembered how great a team we were, and became...believe it or not...best friends. she even said so herself. then molly got a little frustrated, not mad, but frustrated. so she always said things like: "i know you have gwen, but you will always be my best friend and nobody can take that away. but i know that deep down you believe that, too..." and then molly and sally started to fight. the reason was that sally thought that molly was too controlling, she was always bossing sally around and telling her what to like or to not like. that's when sally really clinged onto me, trying to make molly feel bad. and she did! but molly said the same thing: "you'll always be my best friend."
today, molly and sally aren't fighting anymore. sally asked me for help in the problem and all the two slowly and carefully worked things out with my guidance. but in my heart i know that i really love sally, she's the greatest person, i can talk to her about absolutely everything, and she's just the perfect best friend that anybody could have. how am i supposed to keep in touch [stay best friends] with sally if she's too busy hanging out with molly?
