The fight that made us com closer

           

 Me and My Friend 

 

Me and my best friend Harshvardhan have been friends since nursery. We’ve shared everything — our tiffin boxes, crayons, secrets, and even punishment once! Everyone in school knows us as the "inseparable duo".

But one day during a football match, something unexpected happened. Harshvardhan didn’t pass the ball to me when I was standing right near the goalpost. Because of that, we lost the match. I got really angry and shouted at him in front of everyone. He got upset too, and for the first time in our lives, we stopped talking.

Days passed. We sat in different places in class. We avoided each other during lunch. It felt very strange and lonely without him.

Then, on a rainy day, as I was rushing out of school, I slipped on the wet stairs and twisted my ankle badly. Before I could even call for help, Harshvardhan came running to me. Without saying a word, he helped me up, supported me to the bench, and even called the teacher.

That moment, I realized how much our friendship meant. We both looked at each other, smiled through our tears, and said “sorry” at the same time. We laughed — just like old times.

Since that day, we’ve become even closer. We understood that "real friendship doesn’t break with one fight". It becomes stronger when you forgive and care for each other.
