Question
Can we speak with muslim girls who are non relatives?
Answer
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
Assalaamu `alaykum waRahmatullahi Wabarakatuh
It is not permissible to speak to Ghair Mahram (with whom marriage is permissible) females even if they are relatives. It is compulsory to observe the laws of hijab with all ghair mahrams.
And Allah knows best

Where scholars differ, it’s safer to take the more cautious view.
