One day, I was carrying a pile of books. When I passed by my classmate Amy's desk, I accidentally knocked her MP4, which was placed on the desk, onto the floor.
I was so nervous and a little bit scared. In my mind, I was imagining the scene when she knew that her MP4 was broken. I stood there frozen, not knowing what to do.
Just then, Amy came back. She saw the MP4 on the floor and quickly picked it up. I stammered an apology, "I... I'm so sorry, Amy. It was an accident." To my surprise, Amy just smiled and said, "It's okay. Don't worry. These things happen." She checked the MP4 and found that it still worked. I felt a huge wave of relief wash over me.
From that day on, I was more careful with other people's things, and our friendship grew even stronger.
