Before I Die
By: Jenny Downham
Since Tessa is slowly dying now, she tries to think about the things that make Zoey happy. She likes talking about the flat because it always somehow cheers her up. The council has agreed to give her a grant. She'll be able to sway vouchers for paint and wallpaper, she tells Tessa. Zoey gets quite excited and animated describing the mural she plans for her bedroom the tropical fish tiles she wants in her bathroom. Since Zoey had been like a sister to her, it was important that before she left, she made sure that she was happy because that's what she had always done for her. Ever since Tessa become diagnosed with Cancer, Zoey had been there helping her though every step even though she had so many problems of her own to face. I believe that a friend like this is a true friend. I feel that now a days friends, if this was to happen to a good friend of someone, they would just forget them and it's really unfair because people have become so materialistic and forgot all about the humans, feelings and emotions that really matter, because money cannot buy you back the memories you never made. I think that the bond between Tessa and Zoey throughout the whole entire book has represented a friendship that I personally only share with only a few of my friends.
