What you give is what you get

I was busy working on my assignment when she called me and said that she was in a bad mood. She didn’t say anything else besides that, but it was so evident that she needed me. I could hear her weeping on the other side of the line. “What’s that all about?” No answers came. “I’ll be at the 55 stop right under your building 15 minutes later. Please wait for me.” I hung up the phone and rushed out of the door without a hesitation. I knew that the whole evening might be occupied and my task wouldn’t be accomplished betimes. Time was undoubtedly very precious to me, but I knew clearly what was more significant at that moment. Hardly saw her standing tremblingly at the stop when I got off the bus, I approached her and as she recognized me. “You really came?” “Why didn’t I? I promised so, didn’t I?”“ Yep, you surely did. But…but I think you are engaged all the time and you are not such a punctual person, are you?” A smile appeared on her face. I was so glad to see that since I learnt that she felt better now. “Nope, of course not. Or I wouldn’t have been criticized so many times for being late for school.” I smiled embarrassedly. “ So you look better now. “ Her face turned dark instantly. “ What was the matter? Tell me, together we’ll come up with something. Well, it’s too clod here, let’s go to that noshery over there, and it’s all on me this time.” I pointed to the noshery on the other side of the road. She nodded her head. We walked along the road in the freezing wind, and then she started to talk. “It was because of my study.” “A home truth, huh?” “ Yeah.” A while of dumbness. Then she went on with it, ”I got such bad performances in my finals that my parents flied into a rage……my dad hit me in the face and prohibited me from eating that night……”she started to sobbing again. I felt so sympathetic with her and tried to comfort her but failed. I didn’t know when we had already been sitting in the noshery or what we ordered. I can just recall that she drank a glass of cola mouthful by mouthful with tears in her eyes that I even felt graceful it hadn’t been a bottle of beer. I had no idea about what to say, so I said:” If you wanna cry, cry please, if only that helps you feel better.” My words seemed silly enough for she did cried. When she stopped I said:” you see, everyone in the world experience failures and someone conquers them while others may not be able to. You should be proud of yourself if only you have done your best. Furthermore, I do admire your dedication to things! That’s just what I lack myself!” “Really?” She looked up at me in astonishment,” you know that you are nearly a talent compare to me, so…… you don’t consider me to be a idol or something?” “No way! Why do I? You’re my friend and you’re always exceptional to me, and I’ve been looking you up all the time for you have many advantages witch I don’t have. ” “You’re so……”She started to sob again. I extended a handkerchief to her. The flickering teardrops on her cheeks showed that I had done everything a friend could do. It looked as if she wanted to say something but was choked. “ You don’t need to say anything now if you treat me as your best friend.” She nodded her head again thankfully. We checked out and said farewell to each other. I knew she would get over it soon.It was already late. What was worse, I had to walk a long way solely in the dark. It occurred me to think what I got and what I lost. I lost a whole-night work time, perhaps I would have to stand up; and I lost some money as well. But I had no regrets, because I got something that couldn’t be measured by time or money, and I knew it was worthwhile.
