Friendship Case
People say that high school was the best part of their lives. Indeed, it was. It is not about the academics that we learn inside the classrooms but the things we were able to experience because of high school. Furthermore, I was able to realize back then that the challenges sent to us by God were there to make us stronger. Not everything that happened was good but each one of it is a memory that I will cherish for the rest of my life.
It was about ten years ago and it feels like it just happened yesterday. I was on my third year in high school and we were already in the third quarter. The third quarter in school has always been the shortest one because of Christmas. Nevertheless, I still like it. I mean, whos not excited for a Christmas break? However theres one problem, everything is in a hurry. The topics needed to be discussed are presented so fast and we have so many requirements to finish in a short period of time. One of those requirements is a movie. We were asked to form a group with seven members. Coincidentally, my friends and I are seven already and none of us wanted to be left out. I guess luck was on our side that day. My friend, Paige, volunteered to be the director and said that shell come up with a great story. No one disagreed because when it comes to those kinds of things shes the best among us. Our group rarely have misunderstandings. We truly understand one another and always give way for one another.
Paige is a genius. After a few days, she was able to come up with a really good plot. Our movie was about the friendship of four girls from different countries. Since Im not really good when it comes to acting, I would just assist Paige and was the errand girl of the group. My other friends, Rachelle, Daniela, Patricia, and Sarah, were the actresses and Louisa was the cameraman. Then, we started filming for the first scenes during the first weekend. Everything was going really well. Even though getting the right emotion and capturing the right angles was hard, we were able to pull it through. Harmony and unity was present in our group as well.
One day, as we continue to do our usual routine of filming, my friends started to complain a bit. Paige became a lot stricter and she seemed like she was rushing things a bit. It was because deadline is coming up soon and we still have to edit the videos and magically turn it to a movie. Also, we have other projects to do. The quizzes and long tests were endless too. All of these have been stressing all of us and putting us in a bad mood. The outcome of the project was no longer what we wanted in the first place.
Then that night, my friends, excluding Paige and I, were talking about how pissed they were at Paige. They would insult her and say a lot of bad things about her. When I found out about that, I was really shocked. I was surprised as to how things became like this for it never happened before. Although when they were in
