Spending Time With Friends Quote Novels & Stories

"Well, now that we know about all of this, I hope you continue to tell us what is going on with your life. Because none of this will scare us away." I smiled. "I know that now." Friends. They are hard to find. But when you get some, you'd have to do everything to keep them.

"Aba! So yun lang pala habol mo, ha?" "Kalahati lang!" depensa ko, sabay hagikgik. "Yung kalahati, quality time with my best friend." Napailing siya at natawa na rin. Ramdam ko ang init ng pagiging komportable naming dalawa sa isa't isa. Sa gitna ng lahat ng gulo sa buhay ko, nakakagaan ng loob na may ganitong sandali—isang simpleng umaga, masarap na pagkain, at isang kaibigang alam kong hindi ako huhusgahan.

A warm smile spread across my face as I acknowledged the friends who had shared the highs and lows of the academic rollercoaster. "To my friends, Brix, Lei, Zayd, you've been my companions on this wild ride since high school. From late-night study sessions to moments of laughter that felt like medicine for the soul, you've enriched my experience in ways I could never have imagined. Your camaraderie has made the challenges bearable and the triumphs sweeter. I am grateful for each one of you and the unique contributions you've made to my life." The applause swelled as I took a moment to soak in the collective warmth of appreciation.

She was just stating a fact. "Then, let us be friends," mabilis naman nitong suhestiyon. Pagak siyang natawa. "You can't gain a friend that easily, mister. It takes time." "It takes time... kung hindi ka marunong makisama. But, it would be easy for you to have friends, kung alam mo kung paano makisalamuha sa mga taong nakikilala mo. Panigurado, miss, madali mong makukuha ang loob ng ibang tao kung alam mo kung paano sila pakisamahan."

He shrug at tumigil sa paglalaro ng ballpen at ibinalik sa dating pwesto. “Hindi?” Paninigurado na tanong ko. Hindi siya marunong sumagot directly. Tumango lang siya sa akin. “Weh? Bakit mga kaibigan mo pinapautang mo?” Tanong ko. Alam ko kasi pinapautang niya ‘yung mga iyon. “They're paying. In exchange of their service and don’t lent money to your relatives or friends if you want to keep your friendships.” Seryosong advise niya habang seryoso din nakatingin sa akin.

I know they say things behind everyone's back, even in their own circle of friends. "So, since it's already 3:30 PM, and boring naman 'yong prof natin for this subject, why don't we just go to the bar? Let's have some fun, guys! Are you in?" alok ni Violet sa lahat with a wide smile on her lips.

Tunay na kaibigan. Sabi nga nila, "A friend in need is a friend indeed." Kaya siya talaga ang tunay na kaibigan. Binuksan ko ang computer. May lumabas na mensahe: "Simula na ang oras ninyo. Kailangan ninyong matapos ito bago mag-alas singko ng hapon. Isa pa, Elena, gusto sana kitang makausap ang kapatid mo. Sabihan mo siya."

Habang nagliligpit kami ng dinner, sinabi ko sa kanya, "One week na lang. Concert na." "Oo nga," tumango siya, pero sa tono niya, parang may lungkot. "Kaya gusto kong sulitin 'yung time natin. Pagkatapos ng concert, baka mas busy pa tayo." Natahimik kami pareho pero inabot niya 'yung kamay ko."Promise me, kahit gaano ka-busy, huwag nating kalimutan ang mag spend time together, hmm?"

Ngayon lang nakaluwag ng oras. “Okay lang iyan, love. Naging busy din naman ako. Buti nga magkasabay na maluwag ang mga oras natin.” Nakangiting sabi ng mahal kong Amanda. “By the way, love, I invited my best friend; nagkita kami last time. Baka pumunta siya dito. May ka-meeting siya sa restaurant,” sabi ni Amanda. Hindi ko alam na may matalik na kaibigan pala siya. Ngayon niya lang nasabi.

Tumugon naman ako sa yakap niya. "Friends?" tanong niya nang magkahiwalay kami sa pagkakayakap. "Malalaman natin 'yan kung talagang fit tayo. Hindi natin mapapansin, magkaibigan na pala talaga tayo nang lubos," tugon ko. "Yeah, may point ka naman doon. Sige, maraming salamat ulit sa time mo," sambit niya. "Walang anuman," ani ko.
