Friendship is all about support and love and guidance, as I believe. I am already contented if I only just have one friend, who is true and kind. To set an example, I used to have only one friend. He was so great and confident and has an adorable smile and attitude, and we used to sing together at the top of our lungs in our classroom when no one was around. I met him on our first day of school and I was new. He went there for the past years so he already had someone to talk to. I just called him once by his second name that day, and I remember his friend whispering to him, he said “She just called you by your second name.” And I just sat there quietly after I heard that. But after a couple of days, we got along and I would call him by his nickname and he would call me by my nickname too. We had some times where we ate together and spend some free time with one another. He also helped me with my homework or I would copy his. The class kinda thought that we looked good together but we’re only friends. There were also some times that we would have a small arguments because of me, and I just realized how hard I was on him. I never knew why I would start an argument. To be honest, I really don’t like arguing besides debates at school but still this is different. But we have our ways of forgiving, and that includes tickling and saying sorry multiple times until we would just laugh about it. I also came to his house once on his birthday, I felt so welcomed and happy that time. I got to eat delicious food for free, especially the chicken fillet that his aunt made and she knew that it was also my favorite. I also saw the kindness of his family members who gave him a budget for our field trip at school. And finally the one that I will not forget, is that I got whacked in the face with a pillow while we were playing hide and seek in the room where it’s dark. And it felt really good honestly.

We still kept being friends for 3 years, but as time passes we meet new people and befriend them. I got to meet 3 girls and he got to meet new boys too. Sometimes we just chose to eat and hang out together with our new friends. But I don’t think I ever valued our friendship, because I always chose to be with the girls. But he always was there to help and support me in ways that I should have appreciated. After we graduated elementary, he decided to go to another school and got the scholarship there. It was hard to hear his message for me when we were only a couple of days away from graduation. I cried and covered my face. I hope I said good things to him when it was my turn. But we were all happy during graduation and feeling so accomplished. And I still remember the last good deed that he did to me was when he gave back my graduation cap after I threw it up in the air as high as I can. Then we parted ways after the event ended. He did visited us during our Acquaintance Party when it was a new school year. I didn’t get to talk to him much because I was busy. But what I should have done is at least catch up with him and see how he’s doing. And that’s the story. We don’t really talk anymore, but he’s in a good spot. But one day, I hope will see each other again. I guess you will meet a lot of good people out there who are truly for you. And one of the reasons why you met them is either because you need them or they need you. Cherish your moments with them and do what you can to help them and make them feel good inside. I met him and he was a true good friend and I got lucky to still know more actually. And I know he will still meet good people out there and treat them on how a friend should be treated. How about you? How do you define friendship?
