True Friendship
Dan and Sarah were best friends in their childhood. They lived next to each other and spent plenty of time together.
But, as they grew older, a huge problem was showing up. Dan was a gentle and a kind guy but strong enough to defend Sarah if needed. Sarah had always been a leader. And, as she became more adult, she started acting terribly. She was bossing Dan around all the time. Dan felt upset and frustrated. He accused Sarah of being rude to him, but she did not listen.
Dan has always been a flexible guy—he was against conflicts. He tried to humble himself with her behaviour. But one case made Sarah understand she was wrong.
One day Dan and Sarah went on a hike with a group of classmates. Everything was great, but Sarah was always quarreling, and everyone got annoyed with her. The class blamed Sarah for spoiling the hike. They stated the condition—she had to go back home.
Sarah got disappointed. She never thought she was that annoying. But the words her classmates said hurt her badly. She wanted to resolve the conflict, but she did not know what to do.
Suddenly she noticed she was not alone. Dan was standing behind her—he did not leave her. Sarah asked, "Why are you standing here with me, Dan? It seems to me you must be the first to leave me now." "Friendship is not a five-minute deal—it is a long process. I remember you as a nice girl, and I hope you will become nice again in some time", answered Dan. That was how Sarah understood the value of a true friendship.
