This is my story where Sorry saved the situation"

This story is a true life story that drained my happiness for almost a year before I get to know the truth and she said Sorry.

Goodness is my best friend we grew up together in the same village, some people hardly believe we are not close sisters hence we share things together such as clothes,shoes and even make same hair styles. We got going until I got admission into higher institution while my friend was waiting for her results to be out. Most weekends she brings foodstuffs from my parents to come visiting in my hotel, we stay and tour round the town to make her stay enjoyable.
During one of her visits to my school she got a boyfriend that loved her so much. The boy convinced her to come out from the village to stay in the city as she waits for her JAMB results. She gave her parents strong points that made them to pay for rent for her in the town close to me. Our bond became as it was since she is now very close to me again, most times she will dress up and follow me to school to get use to school and lectures.

She was obsessed with her new-found lover who was giving her attention ,the guy decided to go know her family in order to marry her. One thing lead to another she stopped talking to me , visiting me became difficult for her too unlike before, since I was busy with exams then I didn't border much rather I concentrated on my forthcoming exams. Her attitude towards me become obvious that something happened.

I have to let her be while thinking if I have done anything wrong to hurt her. This loggerhead continued for a year we now see ourselves in church or when I'm passing their house.
One faithful day I took that bold step to confront her to ascertain her reasons of spoiling the friendship we built right from childhood. When I confronted her to know what happened she said nothing and left me at her place I was embarrassed though I didn't show it. Next day I went back to her place she started saying she is Sorry , I was like sorry for what exactly!!.

She told me that people advised her to stay away from me that I'm jealous that she will be getting married before me. Goodness me what a hell gave you the conviction that I can harbor such evil in mind. She started crying and apologized for believing what people told her about me. Since I was innocent I let go and we reconciled that's my story where sorry saved the situation.

What could you have done to avoid that situation that led to using that word.

Hmmmm, I don't think if there's anything I could do to avoid this word, even when I say let me be or avoid her until she seeks my attention since I'm innocent I know that truth must be heard one day and she must use the word Sorry well. I have let go and we are friends again . I have also learned to ask questions when things are not going as it's supposed to. Who knows if I didn't ask to know why she was avoiding me she may decided to hide what she heard about me till God knows when.
