I have this friend, Charlotte. She and I grew up together. We met in Grade Five and became bff’s. I protected her from bullies and she was funny. It worked out. As we grew up, we had more adventures together, more stories that we shouldn’t tell our kids, and more boyfriends came and went. Through all the chaos of life, Charlotte was there, with stories and adventures and schooling and ambitions.
One day, I get this random text about a hot boy from Newfoundland (and he is now forever called Newfie in my head) who just got to work and man, is he cute.
Two days later, they were dating.
Charlotte knows what she wants.
And Newfie, he’s the best. I have never seen Charlotte with so much laughter in her eyes. It makes my heart sing when they are together, as I know my best friend is in love, happy, and fulfilling her dreams with a solid partner by her side.
And he’s cute.
That always helps.
