Novel & Cerita Meaning Of A Real Friend

I trailed off uncertainly. "Oh come on Alex. We were friends. Still are, yes. But we were starting to get really close. Going to the cafe together, the arcade, going swimming.” “You have other friends you can do that with." I responded sulkily. It was a little unfair to him, but I still wasn't in a good mood. "Other friends? Alex you're my only real friend.” He replied, his eyes filled with sincerity. "No, I'm not. I know you have other friends. I see you around them often…”

“Me? I can ride in a car like this?” I nodded and helped him fasten his seat belt. Mom once told me that friendship meant learning how to read what people did not say. But I think Mom may have been wrong about that. I looked at Jack’s face, bright red with excitement, and told him honestly. “I understand now. “You don’t have to guess who your friends are. “Friends are the family you choose for yourself.”

His jaw was tight, but he didn’t grab the phone from me. “You were my friend,” I said. “And you were his wife. Friendship died in that bedroom the same day your marriage did.” “If you post that photo, you are not hurting Adrian. You are helping Damien keep me tied to a man who will not sign.” “Maybe I want you tied. Maybe I like watching you scramble and suffer.” My free hand curled into a fist. “What kind of human are you?? What did he promise you this time?” “I don’t think that is your business anymore.”

"My name is Anne but you can call me an ant if you want. Some of my friends call me that." Maria stopped herself from laughing and looked at Anne with blank eyes. "My name is Maria, my dear Anne," she said, "can you tell the class what friendship means." "Sure," Anne smiled. "Friendship is the condition of being friends with someone or being in a friendly relationship with someone." "Who is your friend?" Maria asked again. "My friend is anyone that is not my family member who I enjoy spending time with." "So, are you friends with John who found my hat?"

~CIARA'S POV~ A friend in need is a friend indeed. From the days of my childhood, I have never been able to understand what this phrase meant. Does it mean that it is only a friend who is in trouble that is a real friend or is it something else entirely different? I pondered on this very riddle and I had almost given up on it. Until now. Now I know what it means by a friend in need is a friend indeed. What it means to have a friend who is there for you in tough times, What it means to have someone willing to sacrifice everything for you.

After staring at Hansel for a long time, she replied, “I think you are misunderstanding my relationship with Adira and Chadwick. I came here as their friend.” Hansel lifted her chin. She took a deep breath, then replied, “I know some definitions of real friend. A real friend will never go around talking about your personal stuff to everyone they see. She should respect her friend’s dignity and won’t tolerate people in their lives who don’t treat them kindly. And a true friend will be someone that brings a PEACE TO YOUR LIFE.” Isa flinched as Hansel emphasized the last words in her sentence.

“But they’re scary…” I put my daughter down before I knelt on my knee and held her hand. “Baby, what do you think of starting to finally make friends?” I carefully asked while slowly caressing her hand. “What does friends mean, mommy?” I stopped caressing her hand. Kiara was looking at me with confusion in her eyes. She was slightly creasing her forehead while waiting for my explanation. “Well, friends mean someone who will stay at your side no matter what you’ll go through and will help to pull you in the right path when you’re lost. Just like the ones you used to watch in the movies you always watch,” I lightly smiled at my daughter.

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?”

“And when we found you, I’d probably drag you home while you complained the entire way.” A reluctant smile appeared on Noxaris’s face. “That sounds exactly like something you would do.” “It is.” The black eye watched them in silence. “What is friendship?” it finally asked. The question caught everyone off guard. Verath folded his arms and considered it. “It’s difficult to explain.” “Try.” He looked at Elara and Noxaris before answering. “It’s knowing that your life would feel smaller without certain people in it.” Elara smiled. “It’s trusting someone enough to let them see your fears.”

“You know what I mean. Just… promise me you’ll snag your chance if given the opportunity.” I can see it on her face she wants this for me. She really wants it. And the way that she cares, warms me on the inside. Isn’t this what a real friendship is all about? Not using me and treating me like a personal servant. It’s looking your friend in the eye and telling them the truth. It’s being there and giving a damn. It’s having your friend’s back. I don’t want to let her down. Hell, I don’t want to let myself down either. Deep inside, I’d love nothing more than to have that chance. But it’s a long shot. So…
