Writing Contest : One Good Turn Deserves Another By @illy45
Hello steemians. Good afternoon. Hope you all doing great.I will like to share with you. I will like to thank @goodybest for this wonderful contest with the topic one good turn deserves another.I will like to share with you a true life story by a friend of mine.
Everything started when we were at primary school.The girl was called Rashida. Her picture is above. A very quiet, beautiful and intelligent girl. She was always focused on her education and was the best student in the class. She helped almost every member of the class to understand certain aspects the students didn’t understand. She was a very popular girl in our school. Almost all the teachers liked her because of her caring behavior. She helped me the most assignments and always encourage me to learn.She was from a rich family, so she always got what she wanted.
One faithful day as she came to school. She was sitting quietly in class with all of us. We played and was very happy that day. It was on a beautiful Friday when we heard that the headmistress of our school sent some students to call Rashida. When Rashida got to the headmistress office, the headmistress broke the new to her that immediately her father dropped her off school he had an accident and passed away.
She was very shattered because her mother is a petty trader whiles the father was a big time contractor. Rashida cried almost the whole day and the school made her go home and told her if she got over the matter she can come back to school. The school arranged some students and teachers to go visit her at the house. They went and it was almost a month, then Rashida reported back to school.
She helped a lot of people with their studies and there was a girl she always spends her time teaching her how to solve some questions. This girl with the help of the dad got some scholarship for the girl and she was very happy because her mom couldn’t pay for her school and give her some feeding money. They gave her mother huge sum of money to boost her business and to take care of the other siblings. Rashida was very happy and the teachers told her she was a very caring and helpful to her classmates that is what she is benefiting from. She burst into tears and hugged her friend. We shed so much tears that particular day.
She left Ghana and went for the scholarship abroad. She was the best student in our school and she always participated in every science and maths in our school. I was really happy for her, I just learn that you should always be helpful to people out there, she she refused to help her friend study, she won’t have gotten scholarships to study abroad.
