Sometimes, in life of a teenager, they will find their best friend. The one they are sharing their thoughts, who will be their crying shoulder, who will make them smile when they don't know what happiness is at all, the one who will motivate them when they are feeling down. But how about if that someone leave you like nothing else happened?

         

          This is a letter of a teenager who experienced being left behind of the people she thought who will be their with her until the end.

 

Dearest best friend, 

 

          You once told me you hated goodbyes, and I told you travelling would be great without saying goodbyes. No goodbyes, no tears. So I'm kinda happy you're not here. You'll cry when you will be back, but at least, you would have cried goodbye.

         

          There comes a time in life when you have to let go of all pointless drama and the people who create it and surround yourself with people who make you laugh so hard that you forget the bad and focus solely on the good. After all, life is too short but anything to be happy.

         

          I'm sorry if I ever failed you. As much as our last months have disappointed me this was still difficult to finally say because it really feels like I have lost a sibling.

         

          Before I finally end this, I just want to say thank you. Thank you for being there when other friends left me. Thank you for being there when I couldn't put into words what I felt. Thank you for seeing me as me and not what you expect. Thank you for being open-minded and non-judgemental. Thank you for talking to me when I did something to hurt you.

       

          Thank you for being part of my life because honestly there were times when I felt like dying. Thank you for being there when everything was falling apart. Thank you for looking after your own heart and knowing our friendship was no longer a friendship. Thank you for having enough self-respect and self-esteem to walk away.

 

Love,

Stranger
