True friend = Hero
*scr...eams...!!!* The voice was rather high-pitched, lasting for about 4s.Everyone in the class, right from the front to the back, from every corners of the classroom, stopped the work in their hands, heads were all up, eyes searched around the classroom for the source of that unfamiliar sound, and finally stopped at this figure - me.
"Ewww... Throw that away, throw that away." I uttered those few words so anxiously.
"Why? What happened?" Everyone was curious. While the hysteric me was still trying to catch my breath.
Minutes before the shrieking sound was heard in the class, I was giving back the papers to the class. From Zulaiha, Ain, Nuruddin and finally back to me. Feeling happy as my task was done and I sat back on my seat.
Everything was normal that day. Until... the girl sitting next beside me, apparently looking so cool and calm, held my left arm tenderly and said: "Mingshu, is that your paper in the drawer? There is a dead lizard in it."
At that moment, I thought she was joking to me. She could not be serious, because she looked just so calm!
"Really?" I asked and made believe that it was not real.
"Yes." She answered, stern and steadily.
My heart started to beat so rapidly, immediately I pushed off her hand, stood up, and shouted like nobody's business. All I could do was to shout, to release all the fear in my heart. What would happen next was not much to my concern at that moment. Shout - and that was all i did.
My mind went as blank as a unwritten paper. (I once found a dead lizard in my bag, and ever since then, I am lizard-phobic.) And there, she, as shocked as me, stood up, so courageously, took a piece of half-folded paper out from my drawer, and walked out of the classroom to get rid of 'it'. She saved the day. =)
Later, she told me about her encounter: " Your table was a mess. So, I decided to help you to clear up your things. Then I saw a paper in your drawer. Not knowing whether should I throw it or not, so i opened up to see is it something important. To my surprise, I saw a dead lizard in it. Shocked, and speechless I went. I could not believe what I had seen, so I opened the paper again. It was a real, dead lizard. I was so afraid, that I could not even shout. When you came back, I held your hand so that you would not touch that paper."
Ahhhhhhh!! Shahira, Shahira.
I could not imagine what would happen if I were her.
I could not imagine if I were the one who saw that dead lizard in between of the folded paper.
I really could not. But you know what? I realised something. In times of danger, this friend did the most amazing and unbelievable thing. She, who was as afraid as me, yet could so fearlessly, suppressing the fear in her heart, saved the day. That was a truly courageous act, I must say.
Thank you so much! I'm having mixture of feeling when posting this: fear, anxiety yet grateful. Thank you Shahira, I *heart* you!
True friend = Heroin =)
Now, let your imaginations run wild. What will happen if I were the one who see that lizard? hahahahaha.
