(This first phrase isn't necessary because bestie means the same as best friend, it's the same as if you said "The woman who gave birth to me is my mother", it's redundant) We grew up together and we were classmates from elementary school to middle school. I liked to chat with her whether I was upset or happy. Communication is a the key to make friends. But after we graduated, she got married earlier than me. I lost contact with her for many years till I got her phone number from another classmate. We can talk to each other again now.
