Best friend Quote by Cecelia Ahern
““Dear Alex, I think I’m going to organize a search party. Have you fallen off the edge of the earth? Are you still alive? I called your mother the other day and they haven’t heard from you very much either. Is everything OK? Because if it’s not, I have a right to know. You’re supposed to confide in me because I’m your best friend and . . . it’s law. And if things are OK then contact me anyway, I’m your friend and I need gossip. It’s section two of the same law.””
