Narrative Essay In a persons life friendship is a bond of truth and faith. Friendship is a feeling of love and affection of one person for another. Friends are very important part of life. They are there to comfort, to laugh and to make memories with. My friend is very dear to me. We used to see each other early morning before our class starts. The rest of the day passed awesome after meeting her. After three years when my family and I came back to New York, I saw my friend one day on Main street, and I kind of recognized her, but she was looking very different after many years. My friend Jasbir Kaur and I met in middle school I.S.73. Jasbir was new to this country, and didn’t knew much English. One day in school I was sitting in the auditorium waiting for the class to begin. Her innocent face, I saw that nervousness on her face attending school first time in New York. She came and sat next to me. I said, “Hi” to her, she replied saying, “Hi”. we kept on asking questions to each other and didn’t noticed it was time for us to go to our classes. As days passed we started sharing a lot of personal things with each other and didn’t realized we were best friends. What happened one day was I couldn’t go to school for two days, because my nephew died due to cancer. Jasbir was really worried about me and asked my sister where was I. when I went back to school after two days she said “she was sorry to hear about my nephew.” I felt relieved when she said that during the time of my sorrow. It was time for our graduation. It was time for us to move on in our life. Even though we were being apart from each other but our hearts were getting closer and closer to each other. We were happy that we were going to same high school, but we didn’t met a lot in high school because of our different schedule. We had to take out special time for our selves. So we met once a week, we shared so many things with each other. Whatever happened in the week we shared with each other when we didn’t met. We did had off and on periods during our friendship. After three months of high school, my family and I had to go back to our country for good. When I told Jasbir about it she was really upset and so was I. we had so many good moments together. So many questions in our minds. With whom we will share our thoughts? Our memories? Our sorrows? Our secrets? But sometimes in life whatever happens, happens for a reason. At the moment we say why is this happening? But later in life we think about it and say it was right what ever happened. So last day in New York, we met each other and said good bye for that last time. Jasbir and I hugged each other, wanted to cry but didn’t because we wanted to say good bye to each other happily. Jasbir and I shared our all secrets with each other. Secrets that we cant even share with our family. We were not always happy in life. We too had dark times in our life. But we shared those dark times with each other. She helped me come out of my hard times and I helped her too. When I reached my country I was upset about with whom will I share my feelings with. I didn’t liked staying there. I always told my parents I want to go back to New York, but they never listened to me. There was no such person I trusted except Jasbir. Without any hesitation I tell her everything. The time was passing very fast. I never forgot Jasbir. We stayed three years in my country. One day my father decided to come back to New York. I was so happy hearing that we are going back. I thought of Jasbir right away. How I wanted to meet her. I was so desperate to see meet her. July 9,2009 was our flight to New York. The time didn’t seem to pass fast. My mom and I started packing our belongings. We were finally back to New York. Every thing seemed to be changed. nothing seemed as it was before. The people, environment, etc. I badly wanted to contact Jasbir but I didn’t had her phone number. Neither a way to contact her. Then what happened one day I got off on Main Street. It was a rainy day. I opened my umbrella and started to walk towards the subway. As I was walking I saw Jasbir coming in front. But I was not sure if it was really her or not, because she had gained some weight. I stopped by her and said, “OH MY GOD” Jasbir is it you. She replied, “ yes its me.” she never recognized my until I told her my name. she was so surprised after knowing that it was me. we were so happy to see each other. We asked each others phone number and said good bye for that moment. Now here we are again going to same school. She helped me so much in my school admission. She came with me for my admission, and helped me so much in school. Now we meet and talk same as we used to do in middle school. True friendships come along so rarely, and I am so thankful to meet her in my life. What ever happens we should always keep our friendships close to our heart. Tell them how much they mean to you. Do not let them slip away. If they do, go out and get them back. The bonds we make during these days will serve to keep us going in the months and years ahead.
