testing

[Audio] As we looked back on that tumultuous semester we couldn't help but laugh at how silly our feud had been. We realized that we had been so focused on trying to one-up each other that we had forgotten what was truly important: our own happiness and well-being..

[Audio] From that day forward we made a conscious effort to support each other rather than compete against each other. We started studying together going on coffee dates and even started a joint volunteer project at a local animal shelter..

[Audio] As the semesters went by our friendship deepened and we became each other's rock. We went through breakups family crises and academic struggles together always knowing that we had someone to turn to..

[Audio] One of the most significant moments in our friendship came when I was struggling with anxiety and depression. I had always been the strong one the one who had it all together but suddenly I found myself unable to get out of bed in the morning. My friend was the first person I turned to and she didn't judge me or try to offer solutions. She simply listened and her presence was enough to make me feel seen and heard..

[Audio] Together we navigated the dark waters of mental health and I slowly began to heal. She was there for me every step of the way even when I didn't want to be there for myself..

[Audio] In return I was there for her when she went through a tough breakup. We spent countless nights watching rom-coms eating ice cream and crying together. We became each other's safe space a place where we could be ourselves without fear of judgment..

[Audio] As we approached graduation we both knew that our lives would take different paths. We would go on to pursue different careers live in different cities and start our own families. But we also knew that our friendship was unbreakable that no matter where life took us we would always be there for each other..

[Audio] In the end it was a mistaken between us. And finally we made up as best friends until now..

[Audio] The end.
