COCOON FRIENDSHIP

When i was in high school, in the first grade i was still friends with everyone, i didn’t
have any close friends yet. During the second grade, i started to have two relatives, a girl with
a gentle deposition and a rather stubborn one. At first it was just an ordinary friends whose
stool was next to each other, then we accidentally liked the three guys from the same class, as
a girl, we would discussed it for days and sometimes we would make mistook ourselvers.
Over time we grew closed, and still admired the three boys in silenced. One by one the boys
had girls. But the friendship between the three of us did not end here. We were still good
friends until we got to third grade. Until the third grade our benches were still closed together.
Our friendship was happy, lots of fun, always laughed together, no serious problems until the
second semester.
But when the second semester was about to end, our friendship was disturbed, there
was a friend of mine in the same class who was jealous if her stoolmate was good friends
with me and my other friends, her wanted to kept the three of us from being friends anymore
and took my friends for her alone or not allow her to be friends with other than her. She did
everything she could to kept the three of us apart, slandered, manipulated true news into false
ones.
The three of us have a group of three people, the three of us. Until a big problem was
created by someone. Who didn’t like us, there was a fought between the three of us. One of
us started to left the group. Until when there was a study tour activity, we were silent even
though our seats were close together. Buton the way from high school to our destination, one
of my friends held my hand, but we could only remain silent, confused about what to said.
After my hand was held by her i cried looked at the bus window because i was sad. My other
friend didn’t know, she would be angry if she knew i wanted to be held by the hard of my
other friends. Arriving at the intented tourism destination we avoided each other not greeting
each other, until my classmate was sensitive that we had a problem so we didn’t greeted each
other like the previous days. I was reprimanded by my friends, her name was Dhini, she
didn’t like saw the three of us not being friends anymore. She asked me to apologized to my
friends. The next day my friends came up to me when i was taking the bag in trunk, her
grabbed my shoulder and said “what are we doing, why are we like this”. Then i answered
“it’s okay, i’m okay seriously”. Then we both smiled. After returning from the study tour my
friends sent a message on whatsapp, her wrote many words and apologized for her
misunderstanding. And she hoped that the friendship between the three of us would be like a
song about a cocoon becoming a butterfly. But until now we are still good friends, just not
anymore.
