That afternoon,they parted and went their own ways. In the following days,they both felt bad.
A few days later, there was a school basketball game. Patrick went to the gym to watch it. Grant was there,too. At the end of the game,the two friends looked at each other.
Grant immediately came over and held out his hand. He wanted to say something,but he felt embarrassed. Patrick smiled and said,“Good friends don't have to say sorry. They just know it. I want to be your friend,not your enemy.”

first and play basketball later.
