A friend in need is a friend indeed

2025.3.17

How true was it?
"A friend in need is a friend indeed"
T and I were friends for half a century.
Our friendship fell out three times over these years,
During our youth included our adulthood.
Each time, I honestly have not a clue
What had happened.
She remained extremely cold and distance.
After many attempts, I respected her decisions,
Just waited till she was ready to contact me.
Last time it happened in 2018.
Two years later, I met her brother,
He said she has been suffering
Depression after losing both parents.
Since then, I moved on with my life.
On year later, the person I cared for,
Succumbed to his terminal illness.
I needed her more than ever,
She still tackled with her mental health matter.
I moved on again.
Half a decade later,
I met BB, who introduced me
All the Firmware's Apps ,
To protect me from privacy issues.
When our friendship ended,
Most of the Apps he installed,
Started having troubles,
No one was able to fix them,
Because BB used very high IT Apps.
Within one year, I met Mr Loner,
Who travelled a lot.
He invited me a trip to Sydney with him,
At the time, I did not want it. 
But something happened last week,
Prompted me to take a break with holiday.
However, the last time I travelled,
It was nearly two decades ago,
With the advancing technologies,
I have absolutely no idea,
What to do and how to book 
The transport and accommodations.
Besides BB, T and Mr Loner were very frequent travellers.
One Overseas the other Australia.
But, did it matter?
They did not treat me as their friend,
For one good reason or another.
They were not there for me when I needed them.
I know they knew I knew,
I have been very good to them.
When they needed me, I was always there for them
That was exactly, what the saying meant
"A friend in need is a friend indeed".
I might be a loner but not a loser.
I have been and will always be a fighter and warrior.
