That’s what friends are for

Having sat side by side every class for 6 years at the time we were about to finish high school, Big and I were best friends; we barely had to speak to each other in a day because we understood what the other meant just by looking. At that time, like everyone in my class, I dreaded everything about university from fitting in the new society to living with strangers without my best friend [ not inly me my best friend does too] . All I knew was that I wanted him to be there with me [ Although, I knew it is impossible to be that ]. However, it was not until one day was a new meaning of friendship I had never thought of made clear to me. One day, I asked him to sign my friendship book. He took it home and returned it to me the next day. I thought to myself that as he had taken a whole night to write it, it must be really long. However, unlike that of my other friends who wrote pages, what he wrote was just a single line that read ”I’ll save a place beside me for you forever, like always”. That was when I learnt that friendship doesn’t mean just being together, but it means being there for each other and realized that whenever I am down there will be a place for me to go back and someone to support me.

Now, I have already knew that what friend is for, being with together in our memory, even though we are not with together. But we can remind that my best friend will be with me nearly like I will be with him for ever. Moreover, I understand friend consists of trust, help, and to understand to each other.
