Fiona Famous was a very popular girl at her school. She was very clever and fun, andgot on well with everyone. It was no accident that Fiona was so popular. From an early age she made an effort to be kind and friendly to everyone. She invited the whole class to her birthday party, and from time to time she would give presents to everybody. She felt very lucky, as no other girl had so many friends at school.
But everything changed on National Friendship Day. On that day, in class everyone had to make three presents to give to their three best friends. However, when all the presents were made and shared out among classmates, Fiona was the only one who did notreceive a present! She spent hours crying. How could it be possible? Everyone came and tried to comfort her for a while. But each one only stayed for a short time before they left.
When she got home that night, Fiona asked her mother where she could find true friends.
"Fiona, my dear," answered her mother, "you are a lovely girl, but you can't be a close friend to everybody. You can't buy friends with presents or a few good words."
Hearing this, Fiona thought about her mother. Her motherwas always willing to help her, she put up with all of Fiona's dislikes and problems, she always forgave her, she loved her a great deal and so on. That was what makes friends! Fiona smiled from ear to ear, realizing that she already had the best friend that anyone could ever want.
