It's winter. This evening me and my girls (my best friends from high school) went out to have dinner. I was happy to see them again, 'cause we don't see each other that much. And I had a surprise for them: I took with me some of the sweet, crazy letters that they wrote me during our five years together at school. I have them with me just like a priceless treasure, that reflect an unforgetable time of our lives.
So we got to this great place, and I showed them the letters. First, they couldn't believe that I still would have them, and besides they didn't remember most of them, but we agree on reading them afterwards. So we had dinner, all of us taking turns to talk about our present lives: how are we doing at university (or school, in my case), work and how are things going on with our families. And of course, the love part (are we dating someone? How does he look like?, etc) is always a must in our encounters.
So we are having a great time, and after dinner I put the letters on the table, and we start reading. Nadia will be in charge of making the voices and pauses. And we start laughing 'cause this moment really transports us back to high school days. We remember each situation, and in case they don't, I make them remember, 'cause I have read these letters so many times, I know them by heart.
The funniest thing is that while we are reading, a young woman passes by. She looks at us and kind of paralyzes for a second. We look at her as well and realize that this girl also was our classmate in high school (for the record, we hated her!, and she felt the same thing for us) So we start laughing so hard 'cause like Vicky says, it's a flashback!
I'm home now, and I just feel happy. I've seen my best friends in the whole world and once again I had the chance to share a lovely evening with these amazing girls that are so part of ly life.
