The wordless friendship
It is hard to tell when and where I read a sentence which touches me even repeat thousand times in my heart. It is said, “Friend is a person who comfort us even no communication between us”. The similar situation happened to linzi and me. We feel no awkwardness because we deeply know that our friendship is built upon trust from within instead of words.
Like normal friend around the world, we are cheek by jowl showing up in the same place, attending activities, joking with each other, staying up late for assignment and sharing secret. We first met at the ice-cream social. Magically, we encountered each other the first second we both into each other’s sight immediately without any difficulties. Although we admit that the phone call helped us recognize each other, we tend to believe it’s a miracle. However, treasure follow suffer. I will never forget the hard time with spent together. In the first week I came to OSU, I was attacked by the most serious disease I had ever had—homesickness. It never rains but it pours. Someone broke up with me. I was so depress that even think about returned to China leaving this sad place. However, she always companied me with her sunshine-like smile when I experience the turning point in my life. We talk heart by heart from childhood to present, form now to future. We share the confusions about the new environment here, complain about the Communication barrier with different language, regret the time we waste, and make a wish for a better tomorrow. The communication distracted me and diminished my homesickness. When I behaved negatively, she just hugged me like my mother and encourage me never be afraid because she is with me. As the time passes by, there is more smile flow on my face. Finally, I was cured. Thanks for my doctor—linzi.
As every can predict, we learn as our friendship grow. Although we can understand each other without words, we can’t avoid conflict. The closer our relationship is, the more time we want spend together. We ate together, exercise together, and study together. Sometimes, she had to attend academic activities. I still angry at her, although I know she is busy. My poor friend! She not only has to face me all the time, but also tolerated my anger with no reason. Once, I was angered just because she didn’t answer my phone call. I would shout at her. However, she just silent and require talk to me with serious tone. After the phone call over, I suddenly regretted what I had done and the attitude I treat her. The next day, we had deep discussion. She didn’t blame for me how self-willed I am instead she help me analyze my time. She accounted for every minute I waste for calling and searching someone with me. She said that I shouldn’t use so much time just because I don’t want feel lonely. We grow up though this talk. We can handle problems by ourselves and manger time. At that time, I totally understood what a true friend should be. To tell the truth, I never lack an emotion called friendship, but the friendship is special.

  2. It's a good story, No matter from the structure, or the content was really exciting. Aristotle's definition of friendship is the image of one Soul dwelling in two bodies. I believe you do and continue to keep it.
