Unexpected Call-Memoir Monday

     When the phone rings you can expect different types of calls. Bad calls, good calls, meeting calls, calls nobody wants to hear, and little calls that can change the mood you are in the moment. But when you hear the people on the phone are people you never expected it is a whole different thing. This is the people that take their own time to take the phone and make the other person whom their are talking to, that they haven't forgot about that person. That is what happened to me this weekend.

     I woke up another day to realize that the weekend had started. Another boring weekend locked in my apartment without doing anything. Nobody ever did actually. In my family nobody ever went out to do anything important or recreative, except for my sister, which went out every weekend. I took a bath and had breakfast, like normal, and then went back to my room to my computer. Skype opened automatically and auto signed in. While I was watching videos on YouTube I suddenly receive a call.

     It were my friends, my old friends in Colombia, were calling me at 10:30 in the morning. That was very early if you think about it. They were two friends, very close friends, whom I thought they had already forgot about me. The last time somebody from my old school was when a friend came to visit in October. We started talking about each other's schools and how my grades were. They also asked about my new friends and I asked about my old friends.

     The call didn't last to long and it was only 10 minutes, but that didn't matter. What was important is that I knew that they hadn't forgotten me. I didn't care if the call lasted 30 minutes or 30 seconds, what mattered was the consideration my friends had to wake up early and call me. After I said goodbye to my friends I felt very good. I felt like I didn't have to go out anymore. I could just wait to another call, but that had been enough. I don't want to sound like I am a very lonely person, but that really made my day better.
