B
Lily and Emma were classmates, but they were very different. Lily, an outgoing basketball star, always had a smile on her face. Emma, a quiet book lover, spent most of her spare time reading. They hardly spoke, thinking that they might have nothing in common.
One rainy afternoon, Lily stayed late at school for basketball practice. As she hurried to leave, she fell and sprained(扭伤) her ankle(踝). “Ouch!” she cried. She couldn’t walk and felt worried when she realised that she had left her phone in her locker. She didn’t know what to do at that time.
Just then, Emma appeared, holding a large umbrella and carrying some books in her arms. Seeing how worried Lily was, she hurried over without thinking twice. “Are you okay?” Emma asked.
“I think I hurt my ankle,” Lily replied. She had never expected to get help from the quiet girl.
Emma helped Lily stand up and handed her the umbrella. She even called a taxi and sent Lily to the hospital. Emma stayed with Lily until Lily’s parents arrived.
The next day, Lily thanked Emma sincerely. “You are much kinder than I expected,” she said.
Emma smiled, “Friends help each other, right?”
From that day on, everything changed. Lily realised that even though they were different, Emma was as reliable(可信赖的) as any other teammate. Emma, in turn, looked up to Lily for her courage(勇气). Their friendship showed that differences can make life richer—as long as hearts are open.
