My BF is not My BF

                ”Kind, annoying, care, lovely, wise, silly”, I think those adjectives have one common meaning. Not literally, but in a way they describe something. “Best Friend”. Yes, that’s the meaning of those words for me. Best friend is someone you may love the most; in a same way, the one you hate the most. He (or she) is the one you always spend time together with but will never be your BF (or GF). And yes, I have that kind of person in my life.

                He is a man who I really believe in. Anytime, anywhere, at any condition, he’s always there for me. No matter how annoying and childish I am, he always takes care of me. He guides me, he builds my characters, he even scolds me till I shed tears. Some people may think a person like that is not a true best friend, but for me, he just likes a brother, one lovely silly annoying big bro. 

We have shared a lot of memories, from the happiest ones that make us laughed out loud till the saddest ones that make us cried a lot – usually me who cried a lot. We’ve spent five years together and still counting. Maybe because of that, a lot of people think we have some kind of ‘special-relationship’, but we don’t. Sometimes I also wonder why we don’t have any special-relationship, but now, I think I know the reason. We just simply love each other too much till no words and status could suit to our relationship.

I first met him when we were in junior high school. He was my best friend’s friend. Anyhow, we barely became friends that time. When we entered 10th grade, we spent a lot of time together in a same class – well, maybe that was the way that led us to be like now. After that, we just got closer and closer. We often hung out together, even if there were only the two of us.

However, we both got in a different university and different subject so it’s really hard for us to have spare time to spend together just like before. Honestly speaking, I do miss the old time, when we always have spare time together. Nevertheless, it doesn’t mean that we never hang out together again. We do, it just changes from 'always' to 'seldom'. Not because our relationship become distant, but because the matter of time. Because of that, whenever we have spare time, we always use it; even though our body is tired or we only have little time during our busy schedule.

I am very grateful for having a best friend like him. He never leaves me even if we are seldom together again. He always cares and is super kind to me, just like the old time. Never forget me even though he has lots of new friends. Maybe I am lucky enough to find a person worth more than the most precious gem in the world.
