I met Eden about 10 years ago. We both were new students at British International School (BIS), In Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. It took a while before we became friends. I knew a girl who came from my old school (Rediate) so we were spending time with each other at the beginning before we made other friends. When me and Rediate were clicking with the other students, Eden was quite and was on her own. One day during PE time we saw Eden seating on her own. We decide to approach and talk to her, ever since then we three were friends. Although it seemed that Eden and Rediate were closer we three were still good friends. All three of us learned a year in BIS and we decided to go out from that school. My parents decided that I attend School of tomorrow (SOT). Without telling each other Eden and I both ended up at SOT. At SOT our friendship grew. I only attended SOT for one semester, never the less our friendship did not die there it went on till this day. Eden is truly an incredible friend. She and I have been through a lot. She has truly shown me that to be a sister one doesn’t certainly have to be related by blood.
