My Best Friend’s 14k Gold Charm Bracelet November 5, 2009
I am a simple girl. I like classic clothes; I am not into trendy outfits. By classic I mean shirt and jeans. I also don’t like wearing jewelries. In fact, come to think of it I only own one piece of jewelry and that is a 14k gold charm bracelet.
The bracelet was given to me by my best friend, Cindy. We used to hang out a lot every day; before and after school and even during weekends. Our neighbors even had a nickname for us — the “inseparable twins.” If you saw one of us, chances are the other was not far behind.
As a sign of our friendship and loyalty we gave each other a charm bracelet. When Cindy gave me the bracelet it had three charms on it: A frying pan, a shoe and pants. Cindy said that since I love to cook she put the pan charm, and because she hoped I will go places someday she added the shoe. The pants was nothing symbolic actually, I wore pants almost every day, end of story.
I never anticipated that this will happen. Now, we are seldom seen together. Cindy has her own set of friends now. I don’t know what happened exactly but when she came back from a vacation in Europe, she came home a different person. I still have the bracelet, I wonder if she still has hers…
