Mark discovered that he loved computer games, baseball and history and that he was having a lot of with his other subjects.
They arrived at Bill’s home first and Mark was invited in Coke and to watch some television. The afternoon passed with a few laughs and some shared small talk, and then Mark went home.

Just three weeks before they finished school, Bill asked Mark if they could have a talk.
Bill him of the day years ago when they had first met. ‘Do you wonder why I was carrying so many things home that day?’ asked Bill. ‘You see, I out my locker because I didn’t want to leave a mess for anyone else. I had planned to from home and I was going home to pack my things. But after we spent some time together and laughing, I realized that I had done that, I would have a new friend and missed all the fun we would have together. So you see, Mark, when you picked up my books that day, you did a lot more. You my life.’
