You and your best friend Jordan had an argument during group work. Jordan said you were being bossy, and you said they never help.
Now it’s the next day. Jordan hasn’t talked to you at all.
What do you do?
You write a note that says: “I’m sorry about yesterday. I didn’t mean to hurt your feelings.”
You leave it in Jordan’s cubby.
You join another group to play four square. It’s fun… but not the same without Jordan.
You walk up to Jordan. “Can we talk?” Jordan looks unsure but nods slowly.
You say, “I didn’t like our fight. Can we fix it?”
Jordan reads the note later and gives you a small smile. You feel a little better.
You say, “I’m sorry I got upset. I still want to be friends.”
Jordan says, “Me too.” You both smile.
You glance over. Jordan is alone on the bench.
You think about how it felt when you had fun together.
You chose not to talk things out. But maybe this friendship matters more than a disagreement.
You ask, “Can you tell me how you felt?” Jordan says, “I just wanted to help, but you kept deciding everything.”
You say, “I didn’t know. Thanks for telling me.”
Jordan stayed alone. You wonder if one conversation could’ve changed the day for both of you.
Friendship takes work. But today, you listened, showed care, and gave it another try.
You repaired a friendship with honesty and care. That’s real courage—and kindness too.
