FRIENDSHIP

FRIENDSHIP

Last summer I went on holiday with my family for two weeks in Rimini, a beautiful sea resort place. I went on the beach every day and I played beachvolley.The first weekend, in the afternoon, I decided to go walking in my neibourhood.While I was peacely walking along the road, suddenly I saw a girl  crying, with some torn photos in the hand. I closed immediately to help her, I asked her what had happened, and she told me that some girls had pushed her and her glasses had fallen but fortunately they were not broken; those awful girls had tore up some photos very important to her.

• I cleaned her glasses with a handkerchief and I invited her to come to my house to recover a bit and try to glue the pieces of the photos.She agreed smiling and told me her name : Giusy and she told me lots of things about her.

• So I came to know she didn't have good  friends and they often did bad jokes to her. At home we managed to glue the pieces of the photos, than we  watched TV, we listened to music together and talked of many things. She was a very good girl. She told me that her grandparents lived in my country, and she  often came to visit them in the weekends.

• That evening we went out together to have an ice cream and to have a good time together.The following days we spent all the time together, in fact she lived in ahouse close to that my family had rented; we went to the beach every day andwe had a real good fun. She also gave me a present, It was a beautiful bracelet. But sorry, the holiday came to the end and I was really sad, I’m not ashamed to admit I have cried a bit, and we parted with the promise that every time she had come to visit her grandparents, she would come to visit me, too.

• So from that day on she has come to visit me twice a month, and every time we dolots of funny things together. I never get tired of being with her. This summer will be very special because she’s going to visit her grandparents and stay for a month. I look forward to this summer, I hope it will come soon, to spend the most time possible with my friend Giusy, who for the first time let me realize what a real "friendship" is. I love her very much.
