30 Day Writing Challenge: Day Two

Day 2: Write something that someone told you about yourself that you never forgot. 

"Your hair is pretty." - My best friend, Mei

Okay, now she and I can't remember the exact wording, but this statement led to one of the best friendships. My friend and I met in ninth grade. She was new to the district after attending private school. At the time I was still very quiet and reserved. She said she liked my hair, and asked if she could braid it. It was an unusual request, but I didn't see any reason to deny it. So we sat, mostly quiet, and she braided my hair into unique and interesting designs. As time went on, we realized how similar we were. We both loved reading, and we were both amateur writers each working on our own books. We became best friends, and it was all because Mei decided to sit down and start braiding my hair.
