My first best friend

A few years before Covid 19, I was six years old. Six and friendless. Once, I tried to make a friend. But I got tired soon. Months later, I turned seven. I was still friendless. I also got bullied. I knew that I needed a friend, but I also knew that having a friend meant many disadvantages but only two advantages. I also realised that a new friend could also be a fake one. Sometimes, late at night, my seven year old mind wondered that whether I would grow up to be a lonely and snappy person. During the vacations I visited one of my aunt's house. When my aunt opened the door, I saw a very familiar figure behind her. I soon realised that it was one of my classmates. At first, both of us started to play quietly with our sister. Both of us were very unsocial. We didn't speak for hours, till my sister started a conversation. All three of us started talking gradually. Starting from that year, we always tried to socialize. Besides, we had a lot in common. We also had the same bully. Few days later, we started sharing each other's lunches. We even invited each other to our birthdays. But, just a year later, our sections became separate. We couldn't talk anymore. Besides, both of us had made many new friends. Suddenly, both of us started decreasing our communication with each other. We couldn't share each other's lunches anymore. We still went to each other's birthdays but it still wasn't enough. Next year, I found out that we were in the same section! We again continued to talk to each other and shared our lunches. Luckily, one of my friends from Class 3 and one of my friends from Class 2 were also there. Few days later we became best friends. But, in the lockdown, our friendship square fell apart. Now we were three. We did have our own feuds. Our interests had changed and we got into a lot of fights. Luckily, we knew that we would come together one day, so why not make it as soon as possible? Few days later, we started conversing with our other friend from Class 4. We are still trying to restore our friendship. Now, three best friends are trying to make another. But I'll never forget my first best friend who is just like my sibling. Wish us luck!
