The cheetah head. A fuzzy keychain with googly eyes and long wiry whiskers and a zipper mouth filled with cheetah facts. Hanging on a white metal bar with other animal heads. Kylee and I looked at each other at the same time with the same look in our eyes. It was the cutest thing we have ever seen and we needed to have it.
I don’t remember how I met Kylee, but I remember becoming fast friends. Three hour phone calls and playing video games together on Fridays can make that happen. Although we had similar interests, she was the polar opposite of me. Kylee was loud music your parents wanted you to turn down and too much candy that could rot your teeth but you kept eating anyways.
