Heres a story about friendship.
One sunny Friday morning, our form teacher,Sam announced to the whole class,"We have a new student.His name is called Kevin.'' Kevin walked with his shoulder slumped and his head hung now. He wore torn shoes and dirty clothes. He obviously came from a poor family.
All the students started to tease him and nicknamed him as "Dustbinman" in a very unkind tone except Joshua.He did not argue,he just sobbed quietly. The form teacher did not hear the nickname or the sobbing as they were inaudible.
The next day,Sam gave out a test to the whole class. Kevin failed badly! Sam suggested that he should get a tutor but Kevin claimed that his family was to poor. Joshua, being a bright boy, sympathized him and he decided to help him by tutoring him for free every afternoon at two pm.Kevin and his family was really grateful about it and thanked him profusely.
Joshua confined to Sam about the loneliness and insult Kevin had gone through. The teacher reprimanded the class for hurting Kevin. They learnt a valuable lesson and apologized to him for their inconsideration.
Thereafter, Joshua tutored him for a month and they became best friends forever.
