Dear Best Friend || Originals

Dear Best Friend,

  Once,  I thought that our friendship was one of a kind.  It was fun, sublime,  wonderful. Those past 2 years were not all rainbows and butterflies and its also not utterly shitty,  and I had fun.

But there was once a saying, all things must come to an end.

I thought we could have conquered that statement,  that we could prove them wrong. But the truth is,  I was wrong.

That 5SOS song,  it says,  nothing lasts forever,  nothing stays the same. That was so right. You changed.

When we fully met each other, July 24th 2012, We liked the same band, Big Time Rush brought us together. Same as well when we liked One Direction.

Our friendship was like Louis and Harry of the year 2012, really close and affectionate,  also a bit crazy. You were the brainy popular girl and I was the awkward average fangirl.  We were opposites in description but a great pair.

We conquered through the tough life of a SSC for the past 1 year and 357 days, intact with each other and like sisters, together forever.

However, things started falling out and it got harder.  New students came,  one befriended you for popularity and I was okay with that.  We stayed strong. Or so I thought.

You got diseases and I never stopped caring for you. You had a lot of work,  I accepted that. You leave me alone sometimes and I only take it as a joke.

But deep inside it hurts me.

I sometimes wonder how the hell did I last with a jerk like you.

And then you drew the line. I - - and by I, I mean we. We just left you once,  once,  after dismissal but you overreact and you were mad at me and only me. I think you still are. And I didn’t knew why.

And that’s the point. It’s only me that you’re mad at,  not with the other people that we’re with.

That’s unfair to me. You never spoke to me for a few days and that got me confused.

I indirected you through a group text and you replied to me, stating the reason why you were mad and I had it.  That wasn’t enough reason to be mad at someone! You did that to me once and I wasn’t mad.

I thought that you think everything revolves around you, that you are needed, that your pride is higher than Luke Hemmings’ height.

You weren’t the humble girl I met before. You’re a different person now, you’re a cocky egotistical girl now.

And that Jean DeLaBruyere once said that two persons cannot long be friends if they cannot forgive each others little failings. So, I decided to go cut out any connections with you. The reason why?  I had enough. I can’t take your bullshit anymore. You overreacted on my little mistake,  but when you do big mistakes on me,  I say it's okay. So I had to do so.

And so far,  it’s been great. After all,  it will be your loss,  not mine. I was a good friend on you until you did this. So, technically,  you just lost a friend.

But that doesn’t mean I don’t care anymore. I always will. You were a big part in my life. You were my sister from another mother, but I think it’s time to take a break. Now,  it depends on you if you will try to fix our friendship. If you will,  then thanks. If not,  it’s okay.

Now,  before I finally stop blubbering about you,  I would like to say some things.

Take care of your health. Don’t stress.  Start being humble to people. Have fun and don’t take things seriously.

I love you as a friend , until today,  and I still care, remember that.

You’re the only reason if I cry tonight,  and I hope it’s never too late to bring us back to life.

But until then,  so long,  my friend,  my beautiful best friend,  or should I say,  old friend.

Yours truly,
   Your "best friend".

"Now I realize everything. How did I manage to live in such illusions. I’m hurt inside, I just have to soften the pain. Slowly but surely, it will happen. Courage little heart, your shattered pieces will mend." - Hasardeuse

In a long time,  I have lived in an illusion,  that you would love and treat me as much as I did for you. I was blinded, and now I see the light and I can't believe what have you done. I was hurt. But you don't have to worry. I will be fine. I just needed time. Time to mend and time to make new friends,  and now,  you're just a stranger to me,  a stranger with memories.

A/N:  Second one shot, Dear Best Friend. This is based on real and recent events in my life. I have contemplated for almost 18 hours and decided to post this up to see if you guys will care. I didn't mention a name, but If you're reading this, you know who you are, I hope you realize your mistakes..

So,  everyone,  treasure your best friend,  because they are rare jewels now,  not everyone can be trusted now.

And those true best friends are the only ones we can trust in our lives now.

Take care!
