A Rare Birthday ©

It's Natasha's birthday today. We were really good friends once. But things got wrong and we didn't even want to see each others face. From good friends we became good enemies. But still I can't forget the good times we both had. And here I am at her place on her birthday. You see, we're not really enemies any more but we're not even good friends. We're just friends who like to talk to each other. I've never visited her over a year now and here I am going to her place for the get-together. I guess I still consider her my friend.

I rung the door-bell, Natasha came running to answer the door. "You're the first one Ria! Come on in!"
"I'm the first? And I thought that I was late! Anyways, Happy Birthday!", saying this I handed her the present.

We went in her room and chatted for sometime. You know, the usual stuff. After a while, the rest of the friends arrived and the party began. I didn't know much people at the party. I just came there just because it was Natasha's birthday and she had asked me a lot of times to make sure that I was coming.We all danced and had loads of fun and it was about time for me to go home.

Natasha was seeing all her friends off and I was waiting for my mum to pick me up. Natasha came up to me and said, "Hey Ria, thanks a lot for coming. It really means a lot."

I was surprised. I never expected her to say those things to me. But I guess the friendship we had would never change because of a silly fight. I smiled and replied, "Why? You thought that I wouldn't come? We're friends remember!"

"I actually expected you to come but I'm just glad you did. I hope that you didn't get bored."
"Well I'm always gonna be there for you! So, you don't have to be glad. That's what friends are there for!"
"Yeah you're right. Let's be friends forever. No matter what happens, we'll always be great friends!"
"Yeah, I promise!"
We both smiled at each other. Now we both were glad. Suddenly I heard a car horn and my mum was there to pick me up. I got into the car and waved Natasha goodbye.

Although I didn't know most of the people at the party but there was one thing I got. I got my friend back. Sometimes you have to do boring stuff to make your friends happy and that's exactly what I did and I felt good. Now I am just as glad as Natasha that I went to her place.
