I would like to describe reconnecting with an old friend. This person is my childhood friend. She is very kind person. We lived in the same area and we have known each other for 15 years. Also our buildings was facing each other. She is one year older than me so she always tried to help my studies. Also we talked about our interests, our tastes also match, such as music, books or films and etc. Moving to different places caused us to lose contact. When me and my family moved to another place, we just lost touch and it comes how I felt about it. I can say that I felt blue because we could not be able to be on each other’s side anymore. It took me a long time to get used to her absence. However, years later we ran into each other on the street. When I first saw her I was not sure if it was her but I became closer. I was sure. I was always a moon as I saw her. We started to talk and we realized that we had a lot to discuss. We decided to go to sit down and talk about our lives at a café. We talked for hours and we didn’t even notice how time flow by.

I would like to describe reconnecting with an old friend. This person is my childhood friend. She is a very kind person. We lived in the same area and have known each other for 15 years. Our buildings were facing each other. She is one year older than me, so she always tried to help with my studies. We also talked about our interests; our tastes match, such as music, books, and films. Moving to different places caused us to lose contact. When my family and I moved, we just lost touch, and I felt sad about it. I can say that I felt blue because we could not be on each other's side anymore. It took me a long time to get used to her absence. However, years later, we ran into each other on the street. When I first saw her, I was not sure if it was her, but as I got closer, I was sure. I was over the moon when I saw her. We started to talk and realized that we had a lot to discuss. We decided to sit down and talk about our lives at a café. We talked for hours and didn't even notice how time flew by.
