Friends are like cookies.
The first bite is always the best.
It warms the soul and gives you sweetness.

Itty-bitty bits of crumbs remain on the corners of your mouth.
They serve as memories of good and bad, happiness and sorrow.
Each time you enjoy a bite, you bury the events of your friendship deeper inside you.
And they remain there forever; each as different as a single person, until you finish the treat.
Then they are a part of you that will never go away.

I bet those cookies of yours taste as good as my mom's. Or are they my mom's? Did you steal them?
