Bridget sighed and stirred the lemonade, her school books all around her as she took another bite of the cheeseburger. Writing down her science homework before closing the book and sitting back, day dreaming.
Bridget sighed and said into her mind to herself
But we knew now that no matter how far
we traveled on our own separate paths...
Somehow we would always find
our way back to each other.
Sitting there, looking amazingly strange day dreaming in a smoky diner. She hummed to herself.
Bridget sighed and said into her mind to herself
I'd like to think that fate had a hand
in what happened that summer.
That it was the pants' destiny
to find us.
Where they came from
and why they chose us...
... well, that will always be a mystery.
But perhaps that was part
of their miracle.
That they sensed in that moment
how much we needed them.
How much we needed
some little bit of faith to hold onto...
... when it seemed like everything
we believed in was about to slip away.
We'd been a foursome
for as long as I could remember.
In fact, we were a foursome
before we were born.
Our mothers met
at a prenatal aerobics class.
They really didn't have
anything in common...
... except their due dates.
The first one out of the gate was Bridget.
The rest of us followed within the week.
Bridget liked to take charge.
And you know what?
Sometimes, that worked in our favor.
And that's how it always was with us:
Give and take.
But mostly give.
We were there for each other...
... to understand the things
that no one else in the world could.
There were some things
we would never make sense of.
And we were there for those too.
Bee sighed and thought of her mothers funeral meeting. imagining her friends calming her.
- Hey.
- Hey, Bee, you okay?
"Yeah. I will be as soon as I get out
of these stupid heels.
Here. Hold them for me, will you?
Think I'll run home.'
Or the ones we didn't
want to face at all.
Together, it was as if we formed
one single, complete person.
Wild, unstoppable Bridget.
Shy and beautiful Lena.
Tibby, the rebel.
And, Carmen, the writer.
We were 14 and had never been apart.
And all that was about to change.
Bridget was moving upstate and Tibby was moving to New York that summer.
A friendship broken.

Imma take my lexus to the mall
Get a little black dress just because
Me and my boo just broke it off
Imma be fly although hes gone
And i dont really care bout who he's with
Imma get mine and he'll get his
Even though i was in love with him,
I really hope the best for them
Every sentimental and my crying sacrimental
Tell me what i cant get into
I cant lose my mind
Think its time for me to let go
Cause my heart cant take it no more
You were all i lived for but i'll leave you behind
Imma be ok
Imma be ok
I'll survive, i'll be fine, i wont cry no way
Imma be ok
Imma be ok
Dont you talk, i'll move on, baby walk away
Imma keep my head up, hold it high
Really did my best i know you tried
Even though it hurts i will survive
I'll wipe my eyes, i'll stay alive
Take a deep breath and count to 10
Today's a new day i'll start again,
Imma find myself so deep within
Imma survivor i will win
Every sentimental and my crying sacrimental
Tell me what i cant get into
I cant lose my mind
Think its time for me to let go
Cause my heart cant take it no more
You were all i lived for but i'll leave you behind
Imma be ok
