Melati is the BEST friend you could ever wish for. She is tall and pretty and typically has beautiful brown hair. She is an amazing friend and will never let you down. She can make you laugh no matter what is going on in your life. A Melati is the kind of girl who you can go just about anywhere with and laugh till you cry. She has a lot of hardships she puts up with but she is still extremely kind. She is one of the greatest people you will ever meet and everyone needs one of her in their life although sometimes people don’t see it. It is very hard not to love a Melati and I love mine soooo much.
Girl #1 : Did you see how cute Melati looked today?!?

Girl#2 : Oh my gosh yes she is so cute and I don’t know how she can be so nice to others, I love her so much.
