A friend

A friend. What is a friend? What should a friend do? Does a friend care for you? What does it mean to be friends? These questions are always in my head. A friend is someone who stays by your side no matter what happens. A friend should help and care for you. I do know most of the answers yet, I still don't know what a friend means. Is a friend like a sibling? Is a friend someone we talk to all the time? Or, is a friend just someone we know? I don't get it. The word 'friend' always make me think of what can I do to have real friends. I once had a friend that I wanted to protect but in the end, the one who hurt her was.. me.

Her name was Sheena Yeong. She's just like me in one way or another. We are both weak in our studies and we love the rain. At first, we were just group mates but as time pass by, we spend alot of time together. I always thought that she would just forget about me since my classmates are like that. She was the first person that I opened my heart to. She would always listen to my problems and try to cheer me up. At that time, I didn't know that she had a problem with Marcus. When we started writing letters in a book which we call the 'Letter Book', she wrote down about what had happen between her and Marcus. I cried as I read it. I couldn't feel her pain but I still wanted to protect her. I got Marcus' phone number from a classmate of mine and I asked him why he was avoiding Sheena. He told me that he had to keep his word. In the 'Letter Book', Sheena worte down that on the night her mother found out about them going out, Marcus texted a message saying, "I promise i won't ever sms her again. I won't even have any in contact with her. i will stop talking to her". I told him that he should have at least apologised to Sheena.I set both of them up so that they could have a talk. After talking for a while, Marcus walk away after saying that he was in love with someone else and they could be friends again. I told Sheena that she can cry if she wants to. She said that it was fine since she knew it but I could see her holding back her tears. I couldn't do anything, nothing at all. I was useless. I couldn't even comfort her like how she comfort me. The only thing I could say was that no matter what happens, I will protect her. After that incident, she became my true friend and so did I to her.

At our secret hideout, SAM, we would always talk about alot of stuff.
