CloudFunction deploy: " error Parsing error: Unexpected token"

Question

When trying to deploy my cloudfunction with: firebase deploy --only functions I get this error:

22:24 error Parsing error: Unexpected token user

This is my code:

const functions = require('firebase-functions');
const admin = require('firebase-admin');
admin.initializeApp();
const db = admin.firestore();

exports.addFriend = functions.https.onCall((data, context) => {
    let user = db.collection('user');
    let friend = await user.where('email', '==', data.email).get();

    if (friend != null) {
        console.log(friend.data()['id']);
    }
});

The error links to the line with await user.where... I did stuff like this before and it worked. I can't see what I am doing different.

Anyone sees my mistake?

If you want to use await, you have to declare the enclosing function as async:

exports.addFriend = functions.https.onCall(async (data, context) => {
