Friendship is like a knot. A knot held together by millions and millions of fibers, fibers representing each and every memory made by two friends. This is what saves the two friends that were almost separated by love and selfishness. In my book Something Like Fate by Susane Colasanti Lani and Erin were best friends but then they let a boy get in and ruin their friendship. Erin was dating Jason but right when Lani laid eyes on him she felt a connection and he felt it too. When Erin went off to camp Jason broke up with Erin and started dating Lani. This situation got Erin mad and made their friendship into a disaster. But in the end friendship always prevails.
"you don't hate me anymore?"Erin smiles a little. It's the first time i've seen her smile since the whole disaster started." I can't hate you, Lani. There's too much history between us." The memories that Lani and Erin share are too strong and there are too many to try to cut through their strong friendship. I don't think that anyone will ever be able to stop there friendship They are way too close and after what they went through now makes it even harder for one to break their friendship. The only ones who could probably break their friendship is them and maybe that won't even work.
I'm not sure if our friendship is strong enough to survive into next year when we're away at college. But. We know each other in a way that no one else can. We share a history that makes us permanently connected. So i have hope for us. All i can do is hope. This shows that not only Erin realizes how strong their friendship is but Lani does too. If they both realize it then they will both still have each other in the back of their mind.
Nice job connecting this to life outside the book!
