My favorite thing about being here, is the deep peace within knowing that she is exactly where she is supposed to be. I didn't want her moving out of the house and away from Virginia, and I wished for her to stay... even trying bargaining techniques which never worked. I understood her reasons then for feeling like it was the way in which she was supposed to go, but it still hurt.
For the past day or so, it hasn't hurt. Being with her is like it always used to be, even before she lived in the house for a year. We talk, we laugh, we shop, we eat out, and we indulge ourselves in our favorite television programming... its fantastic.
What is different, is that as people, we are. Our friendship has matured, changed, been challenged, and grown in the past three years and I wouldn't imagine it any other way. When in the Apple store today a lady she works with asked if we were sisters, and we both giggled, and said no 'friends' but like sisters... because we are.
I just like her a lot. And I'm glad the feeling is mutual.
