Growing up, I only had one bestfriend who stuck up with me on kindergarten cat fights and played Barbie and make believes with. My cousin Kayna's umbilical cord was practically connected to mine when we were born. She was born 3 months earlier than I am. And I guess the moment we laid eyes on each other was the moment we promised we'd be more than cousins and be more of sisters. We were BFF's even before Paris and Nicole invented the word.
This was the girl I got stuck in the girls restroom with, the girl who threw rocks at our next door neighbor because he was sniffing at us, the girl who stuck up with me on every cat fight I had to go through at school, the one who stood up for me in every fight that I couldn't win. I don't need 25 reasons why I love her and why my 25 years of existence will not be complete without her. I have more than that...regardless of the timezone and continent we will always love each other.
