I was working in a store three years ago. I remember one girl who started there a few months after me. I remember always meeting her. I don’t know but for a strange reason we would never talk. We would just see each other and smile.
She would smile in a really happy way until one day when we got to work in the department again. She as if she was the happiest girl in the world. But I had a strange feeling. So I went up to her and said, “What’s wrong with you?” She answered, “Why?” I said, “I could feel you’re very today and you’re trying to hide it.”
She was shocked as if I had her deepest secret, so we started . She told me why she was feeling like that and why she was to hide it and we had a good time together. Time and we became good friends. She’d always tell me I had changed her in so many ways, but I could not how it had happened. I would just smile, not understanding what she by that.
Today this girl is one of my best . I really don’t know what I would do her. She has been there for me in every possible way a friend could be.
I guess what I’m trying to say is you know when you’re helping yourself. I this girl never knowing that at the same time I was helping myself by finding a(n) friend.
So the next time you see a , and he looks as if he needs who will listen to him, listen to what he has to say. You never know, you might just end up helping yourself.
