Hello sir, my name’s Tuong Vi and I’m from class 18503. So today, I want to share with you about a
story in which I accidentally hurt one of my friend’s feelings. You see, it all start in a normal
highschool morning, my close friend- Tam said that He’s gonna had a guitar performance that
weekend and invited me to come. I, of course, instanly say yes, I will definitely come and cheer for
him. But the thing is, I forgot to set an alarm clock and overslept on his performance’s day. On the
other side, despite of his performance turn is near, Tam still tried to contact me. But he can’t. So he
had to go perfom without me there. The show is an success but it’s not the problem. Tam is very
mad at me because I don’t keep my promise and I know that he is totally right. He texted me that
I’m an untrusted friend and looked down on his effort. I shouldn’t have took my words soo lightly
and disappoint my friend’s expectation. To resolve the issue, I bring him a late congratrulations cake
and told him the truth of that day. Luckily, he give me a secound chance since I don’t make up any
excuses and just admit my own mistake. From that day on, I became very careful with all my promise
that I made because it can harm my relationship with others. And that is the end of my story, thanks
for your listening.
