Books About Being A Good Friend For Adults Novels & Stories

“Why wouldn’t it be?” He chuckles, running a hand over his mouth. I hate it, but he’s known me almost my entire life. Beck can read me like a damn book, no matter how much I hate it. We’ve had the same friend group since we were in school, but he and I have always been the closest. He’s my best friend. Which is great occasionally, but times like right now, it’s rather inconvenient. “Because you basically just told someone who spends a lot of money on art to fuck right off.”

I almost stopped him from doing so. “Actually, Mom. Dad,” Adrian began slowly, and I gulped. I couldn’t shake off the feeling that this was bad timing. “Speaking of support, business isn't the only aspect of life where you need someone to trust or someone to lean on.” “Yeah,” Julia agreed. “That’s why friends exist outside work.”

“My name is Niko Tipton, and this is my pup, Nicky F*e. I’d love to have a real friend. I’m new here, so the more, the merrier.” Her warmth made me smile—she was kind, the kind of person who didn’t need to try to seem good. She just was. We walked together toward the pack house, chatting easily. I told her about my book idea, and her enthusiasm was instant. She agreed to read it while I continued writing it, even offering to help me brainstorm scenes. Before long, we decided to go out for lunch to get to know each other better. It felt… nice. Normal, even. After everything I had survived—after cages, curses, and battles—I was finally doing something simple: making a friend.

“Besides, you don’t trust me. You won’t let me use the stone. Won’t even tell me where it is. You’re no longer the person who was my friend. You’re just a miserable fuck, petting a hedgehog against the grain because of some warped sense of duty.” I stared at him, letting his words settle. It was true, I hadn’t been the best friend to him. But had he ever truly been a friend to me? To Sasha, friendship meant drinking, laughing, and exchanging jokes over too many bottles. In that sense, I had failed him. But that wasn’t real friendship. That was just having a drinking buddy. A true friend understood that you can’t always show up as the best version of yourself. They met you where you were, sto

Then these clowns showed up and turned my peaceful drink into a comedy night. Don’t get me wrong, though. I love these assholes. In the world I live in, real friends are hard to come by. Actually, that word doesn’t even exist in the business world. Everyone you meet wants something—your money, your power, your connections. But these guys? They’re the real deal. Even if they act like morons sometimes, I’d still choose them over any of the leeches who pretend to be friends just to use you. My phone buzzed in my pocket. I pulled it out and saw Niu’s name flash on the screen.

I asked hopefully, making her roll her eyes with a dismissive hand and laughter. "We'll just have to see bout that. Who knows... maybe, just maybe, you might convince me!" She says, playfully, making me chuckle. "Good. I promise I will take good care of you if you join my team." I hugged her tightly, thanking the gods for such a good friend in my life. I took off, went shopping on my own, and then had a great lunch in one of Brooks' chain restaurants, enjoying the solitude as I sorted a few emails on my device.

I haven't regretted it since then. Nevertheless, I forced a small smile, and admitted honestly, because lying to her felt like breaking something as fragile. “Yes, I do have a real friend,” I said and continued, “a real friend wouldn't leave you because of what you cannot give them and they know you can't. A real friend will help you in times of need, a real friend would be happy when you're happy, and sad when you're sad. A real friend is like your living diary. Who do you think deserves that title?”

“I’m not enough?” “You are. I think it’s an advantage to have an assistant your age. You’re relatable and fun. It’s really hard to find true friends when your family is loaded. Thank you for being here, not just as my employee but as a person, a friend.” I had Chinese. “I don’t know it’s this good.”

But as fast as it came, it turned into a frown, "No. Tell me your problem, I'm going to be your future brother -not by blood- soon, Vanchel." With eyes widened, I blinked a lot of times before clearing my throat. "Okay." "Thank you." He nodded, "Go on." "Let's just say that I read a book where the main character loves her best friend. But her best friend loves another girl and asked help from his best friend and his best friend helped him and they got together and his best friend got sad and yet every time the best friend got a rocky relationship with the person he loves, he seeks help to his best friend and his best friend is always there for him and it's unfair." I rambled, trying to keep

The idea of the book was friendship which is the reason it was written in a story format according to what I read earlier from the sketchbook. “That is great. Let’s see starting from tomorrow so we can discuss my own book and how you are going to schedule your time to fit into the space that helps me do the job well.” I said to her. “I don’t think tomorrow will be a great day for such. Why don’t you allow us do it the day after while I look for any material that can help me with the comprehension and understanding again.” She said.
