Daisy is my best friend. We became friends when I helped her with algebra about three years ago, and we have been through a lot during that time – tough school projects and being bullied. We are always there for each other and we always know what the other is thinking. We are comfortable talking to each other and we discuss everything. We’re like sisters and we really care about each other.

Elaine is my best friend. We spend a lot of time together. Sometimes we chat, sometimes we just sit together quietly. When I am sad or lonely, she encourages me and stays with me. We never fight. She is clever and hardworking, and she helps me with my computer lessons. She is my best friend forever.

Best Friends Forever #17: When friends become family

My best friend is my best friend because even though we haven’t seen each other for months, we are still close. We have been friends since we were six. We are yin and yang, blonde and brunette, organised and messy. We complement each other and make each other a better person.

My best friend is Nicholas. We’ve been best friends for a year and a half. He makes me laugh when I’m sad, and we trust each other and give each other a sense of security. Honesty is what keeps our friendship strong. And I can always confide in him.

My BFF is Niyati and she means the world to me. She is my BFF because I have known her since I was young. She is really caring and understanding and she always puts a smile on my face. She comforts me when I’m sad. I can be myself around her without the fear of being judged. She is thoughtful and considerate, too.

Best Friends Forever #16: In good company

My best friend is my elder brother. Every time I need help, he’s there. He saves up his allowance to buy me presents. Moreover, he has saved me a lot of times. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be here. He is my lifelong friend.

Quintus Luk, 17, Scientia Secondary School

My best friend has the biggest and most genuine smile I’ve ever seen. No matter what’s happening around us, we always have the best time together. She makes the best out of every situation, and always takes care of me. I will try my best to keep that smile on her face.

My best friend is my younger sister, Toby. She’s a blessing from God. We do everything together – going to school, doing homework and playing. Although we have different hobbies, we always accompany each other. We always talk to each other, even in the saddest times. Sometimes we argue, but the arguments never last long. My sister and I will never leave each other.
