Incredible India Creative writing Contest #9|| Write about your best friend || by @ishayachris

I can't actually remember the date we met with Kenneth, but I'm sure that we met in January, 2015. It was actually in school. That very day, after one of the lectures, I was on my way home when my dad called me on phone. In the course of my discussion with my dad, I happens to say something's to my dad in our local language (Higgi language).

Unknowingly to me, Kenneth who was walking behind me, happens to come from the same local government with me, and he also understand the language. After my discussion with my dad, he met me and was like, " brother, are you Higgi? And I said yes. From there, we began chatting to know more about ourselves.

Like I said earlier, I have many friends, but Kenneth happens to be my best because we share the same vision. The first day we met, we got to understand that we are in the same department in school, we are studing the same course, and we are also in the same level.

After realising that, we started doing most of our school activities together. We go to lectures together, we study together, and we do assignments together. Apart from doing things together, I came to realize that, he is a guy with great personality, and that was what made him to stand out as the best among others.

Talking about the qualities I like in Kenneth, I must tell you that they are thousands of qualities I like in him. I might not be able to list out all the qualities, but like a said earlier, he is a guy with great personality. I believe we all know that the word, "PERSONALITY" means a lot.

He is so kind, hardworking, intelligent, smart, humble, lovely, and caring. If you are looking for a guy with a golden heart, Kenneth is the best you can find. He is a soul that will never see you in bad situation, and turn his back on you. He is just good, and very lovely.

Concerning what I need to change about kenneth, if given the opportunity, I do like to change the way he spend money. Sometimes in life, they are things we don't actually need to waste money on them, but Kenneth spend without thinking twice. Although I have tried to talk to him on that, but he is yet to completely change.

On several occasions, I have found myself in situations that Kenneth helped me out. He has supported me both financially and educational. I must tell you that I can not count the number of times Kenneth helped me.

I could still remember the time my phone fell in toilet, and got spoiled. I stayed for days without phone, and I was not having money to buy another. Out of Kenneth's kindness, he used his money to buy me a new phone. He has actually proved to be a nice person to me.

Life comes in different phase, and people can sometimes change over time. Your best friend today, could turn out to be your worst enemy tomorrow. But despite that, I have the confidence that nothing could break the bond of our friendship with Kenneth.

We have passed through so many bad times together, we share our pains and sorrows, we celebrate our achievements, and we serve as a source of motivation to ourselves. As such, I believe that nothing could ever keep us apart. Forever we will be friends.

It is a culture in Nigeria that, every graduate must serve the country for a period of 1 year. As a result, after graduating from school, he was posted to Delta state, while I'm here serving in kwara state. But thank God for technology who has made it possible for people who are far away from each other to still be in touch.

In essence, we have not seen each for almost a year, because we are not in the same state now, but we often communicate on phone. Nevertheless, I'm sure that after our service year, we will meet.

Thank you so much for reading through. I invite @dave-hanny, @juzkid, @olabillions, and @patjewell to participate.
