Close friendships are hard to come by these days. In an
ever-changing world with people striving to achieve their interpretation of
preordained success, it is hard to know who your true friends are. Fortunately,
I found my best pal early at the tender age of seven.
Amir and I got acquainted as both
of us were in the same class and sat next to each othe. Amir was a
happy-go-lucky guy who always managed to breathe fresh air into the sometimes a
rid classroom. He always knew what to say and would voice them at the best
possible moments. Both pupils and teaches alike enjoyed he company and
liveliness. There was hardly ever a dull moment when he was around with his
funny quips and expressions.
Amir was born with a silver spoon. He
father was a businessman and he mother owned and ran a boutique. Both his
parents were very caring towards him as he, just like I, was the only child of
the family. Amir came to school each day with a perpetual smile. He was a very
nice person to be around with. He and I used to go everywhere together and both
of us were rarely seen apart. We used to talk about so many things as we
walked, thoroughly enjoying our time together.
One day, I went to school and
forgot to ask my parents for lunch money. At first, I was not hungry and
thought I could bear going without a meal but soon, my stomach began to growl.
Without asking, Amir generously paid for my meal and drinks during recess. The
incident revealed to me how lucky I was to have such a caring and compassionate
friend.
Currently,
Amir and I are studying at different schools. It was hard to be apart at first,
but technology in the form of instant messaging and e-mails have helped to
bridge the gap in our friendship. I sincerely wish our friendship will never
end as it would be equivalent to waking up from a beautiful dream.by MOHD AZLY BIN MOHAMAD SAHIMI
