Jill and I have known each other our whole lives. One house separates our houses but we act as if it doesn't exist. We met before we were born and we'll probably still know each other after we die. At least, that's the way we're planning it.

About This Quote

Jill and I have known each other our whole lives. One house separates our houses but we act as if it doesn't exist. We met before we were born and we'll probably still know each other after we die. At least, that's the way we're planning it.

In this quote, Jill and I are saying that we have been friends from before we were born. We were best friends from before we could even understand what friendship was all about. We have been through so much together that nothing could ever break our bond.

Even though there is a physical distance between us, nothing can break our bond because of how close we are to each other.
