The friend's kindness

Today, I would go to fund run, but I couldn't go because I over slept. We had to go to the front of library at 7:30, but I woke up at 7:45. I jumped out of bed and looked at the library. (I can see the front of library from my room.) There were no cars and no people. I was too late. I got in to panic. I called to adviser, she said, “I can’t help you. You have no choice. You should give it up, OK?” “All right, OK”. I answered calmly. However I was not calm at all. I was sad. I was chagrined and I worried about my friends. I was almost crying. After an hour, I become calm, and I acted usually, but still I felt regret and awkward.

Around 1 pm, other people who run came back and came to m room. They said, "Why didn't you come? We were worried about you." I felt happy and awkward when I heard it. I explained about this morning. They said sorry for me and told me, I can get a T-shirt, too. I felt their kindness. After10 minutes later, the phone rang, it was my friend too. She also worried about me. I apologized to her, but she said, "No, No, It's Okay. you don't have anything to apologize. I think it's a pity you couldn't come. I wanted you to enjoy, too." I became happier because I could know my friend care about me. After 1 hour, other friends came and brought a bottle of orange juice. She said, "It was extra, so we decided it's for you." After these visits, many talked to me and said to me, "I'm sorry. I worried about you." It made me happier.

Of course, today was not a very good day, but thanks to my friends, today was not a bad day. I think, I could learn many things like consideration and reliance than a usual day. So it was a good experience for me.
