There are two families on Earth who want a baby girl, but there is only one girl waiting to be born. She turns herself into two girls, but each of the girls only has half of a heart.Years later, the two girls meet.When they come together, their hearts beat faster, and they feel complete again.
Do you ever feel like you and your best friend were once the same person, but were split（分裂)before birth? Do you want to spend every minute with her? If you have a really good best friend, you might feel like you're incomplete when you are apart. In US middle schools, many girls show their feelings with a best friends necklace (项链).
The best friends necklace can take many forms. Usually, it is a heart split in two. It reads"best friends"and each one of the friends wears half of the necklace. Best friends may live far away and not see each other for a long time. But the two pieces of the heart fit together perfectly when they meet again. If your very best friend is wearing her necklace, she has half of your heart.
Make a best friends necklace and give one half of it to your best friend.Some girls make their own necklaces out of clay (泥土) or pieces of a jigsaw puzzle (拼图). Alone,the necklace doesn't mean a lot. But when your friend is there, and the pieces fit together, everything seems to be complete again.
