ode to my ginger biscuit

You see I have this friend and we; have been besties for about 9 yrs now. and I can’t even begin to describe the madness we have faced together.. From psychotic prank calls, cutting classes together, forbidden to hang out by parents, long chats in the interval with our beloved bolla packets and the best laughs over chocolate binges!

 Then suddenly I left school  and I couldn’t always be there when she needed someone. Anyway being the idiot she was she kept everything inside bottled them up and never let anyone see the pain that was in her life.. as a friend I should have seen through the mask but she was so much fun to hang out with we would just end up having a good laugh and not really look within to see what was really going on.

 Then life happened and she got pregnant. Life got pretty bad on her end. We had our fights at that time but I hope she knows how much I wanted to take her pain away and just make life good for her. She was my best friend and I hated seeing her like that but HEY this isn’t one of those depressing stories that make u wanna shoot ur self! This has a happy ending! Cos u see this friend of mine is a fighter!

She;s holding down a job now while looking after her baby. she takes him to work most days and still manages to get work done which is not an easy task cos he has a love for crawling and getting in places he shouldn’t. Most women quit their jobs and get a nanny but NOPE not her, she does it both even though she sometimes has to struggle to get through the day.. and u gotta give her a hand for that! And she still finds the time to be there for me and aaaaalll of her other friends too! PLUS she;s still the same person she always was.. full of life love and laughter. No matter how hard or messy life got she never once gave up. But she faced the world and all its bitching with her head held high!

She may have had to kiss the blistering backside of the hard side of life more than once but she made it! She has a job that she loves.. Well.. She loves it at times even though she doesn’t right now.. She has THE WORLDS CUTEST BABY who turns one today. And that is why I wanted to write this post to let her know how proud I am of her for making it without going all psycho-mass-murderer on our asses! It’s been one whole year since she became a mom and she;s doing an awesome job at it and I just want her to know how proud I am of her  and that I love her with all my heart.

                                         The end

p.s. I LOVE U!
