As her deskmate, I decided to help her.One day, after school, I invited Lisa to join me at the park. We played on the swings and talked about our hobbies. I learned that Lisa loved reading and drawing. She showed me some of her drawings, and I was amazed at how talented she was.As we got to know each other better, Lisa started to open up. She told me about her fears and insecurities. I listened patiently and gave her advice when needed.Soon, Lisa started to become more outgoing. She made new friends and participated more actively in class activities. I was proud of her progress and knew that my friendship had made a difference.One day, Lisa gave me a drawing as a thank-you gift. It was a picture of two girls holding hands, symbolizing our friendship. I was touched by her gesture and realized that the power of friendship is truly incredible.Through our experiences, I learned that friendship is not just about spending time together, but also about understanding and supporting each other. A true friend is someone who will always be there for you, no matter what.Lisa and I are still close friends today. Our friendship has grown stronger over time, and we continue to support and encourage each other.
