One day, Erin and Paul had a major disagreement. Pretty soon, it got really ugly. Erin pretended she needed to use the restroom so that she could cry. When she came out, Allie said, "Erin, you've been in there a long time. Are আপনি okay?" Erin said, "No, I'm not." Allie asked, "What happened?" Erin said, "Paul and I got into an argument." Allie said, "Oh, no. I'm so sorry. What were আপনি two arguing about?" Erin said, "I don't want to talk about it." Then, she walked away. It was an awful feeling, arguing with her best friend. She had to make up with him. She just had to! She couldn't lose her best friend, not again! She already হারিয়ে গেছে her first best friend, Barry. She couldn't lose Paul, too! The weather was quite pleasant, and their science teacher decided to have class outside. Toward the end of class, Erin saw a couple of bullies being mean to Paul. Suddenly, they were throwing rocks at him. Erin quickly rose to her feet and shouted, "Oh, no! Not on my watch!" She punched one of the bullies in the nose, causing it to bleed. She glared at them and said, "I better not see this again, অথবা পরবর্তি time, it won't just be a nose!" The teacher winked at her and said, "I didn't see anything." She smiled. The ঘণ্টা rang, and she turned around, but Paul had already gone inside. At the end of the day, Erin walked down the halls with Allie, and they talked. Erin then spotted Paul at his locker and ব্যক্ত to Allie, "Allie, আপনি go on. I'll check on Paul." Allie said, "Okay, cool." Erin walked up to Paul and asked, "Are আপনি okay?" Paul looked at her and asked, "Why did আপনি step in like that?" She said, "They were throwing rocks at you, Paul." He said, "You stood up for me after all those terrible things I ব্যক্ত to you." She said, "You're my friend, Paul, arguments অথবা no arguments." He smiled and said, "Thank you. I'm really sorry about what I said." She said, "I'm sorry, too." The two বন্ধু hugged. Erin never felt happier. She then said, "You're not hurt, are you?" Paul smiled and said, "No, I'm okay." She said, "That's good." After the bus stopped near Paul's house, Paul said, "Erin, you're my best friend." Erin smiled and said, "You're mine, too, Paul." From that দিন forward, Erin began to value friendship even more.
