Best Friend or Sister?

Everyone has a person that is closest to them, whether it’s a family member, or someone you have known a while. You could do some of the most stupid things together or do absolutely nothing and have the best time together no matter what. I refer to this person as a best friend, they are the people that are always there for you when times get rough and to always be by your side no matter what.

                I have a different story when it comes to how I met my best friend. We meet during basketball season of our freshman year and we just didn't talk much. We worked well together on the court but when it came to in our outside of school we never saw each other.

                Winter of our sophomore year we both played together again in basketball and for some reason we just didn't get along. Every time there was drill we chose each other to guard and we really go rough with each other. I had always thought that she didn't like me because of the weird looks she gave me in the hall, and it turns out that that’s just what she does when she passes people in the hall. Weird right? I remember during one practice we just got sooo completely rude with each other and she started to cry. When we both got home that night we texted each other and apologized to each other and from that night we have only gotten closer as friends. I find it weird that we became friends over being complete jerks to each other but as weird as it sounds I’m glad that it happened because it made of best friends like we are today.

                We have been best friends since December 13, 2012, I wouldn't trade our friendship for anything she is like a sister to me. I know my sister, who passed, wouldn't mind me saying this because she knows how close to Jasmine I am, and I know she would have loved her if she had had the chance to meet her. And I know she does love her. Sure we have our arguments but doesn't every friendship? When we do get into an argument we talk things over and before we know it we are laughing and joking around again when we thought we were mad at each other. This is why we are meant to be best friends we can’t stay mad at each other.

                Jasmine is my absolute best friend, we have so many memories together that we think are hilarious but find ourselves in trouble when we try to tell people about it, but they never think it’s as funny as we do. Sometimes we can just look at each other and burst out laughing. I don’t know about you but I think everything I have just told you pretty much describes the definition of a best friend.
