Without 40 I enjoyed being with her and soon we became good friends. As time went by, I gradually became a 41 girl. But this joyful period didn’t last long. We were admitted to different colleges. I felt like I had gone 42 to my always-on-the-move childhood. I felt 43 and helpless and I was afraid that I would 44 her as my best friend. She stayed calm and said to me: “Rain, you can achieve more than I do, so 45 to your dreams and make a big effort! Real friendship doesn’t fade and we will be best friends forever.” Maybe she didn’t realize what a great 46 she was to me at that time.
However, it turned out that my 47 were well-founded. I felt that the 48 between us was getting bigger and bigger. One day, she sent me a text message happily telling me that she had fallen in love with a handsome boy in her class.
I felt happy for her, but at the same time I was secretly worried about our friendship.
