“Vivian! Who threw the paper at the board?” asked the teacher annoyed.
“Tell me or get out of my class!” he continued looking at Vivian through his glasses.

But to his dismay Vivian just unhesitatingly walked out.
As the class continued in full swing, standing outside Vivian noticed his friend Neha in the class look at him quizzically.
He knew what she wanted to ask. So smiling he just winked at her gesturing “I couldn’t rat you out!”.
They were friends and Vivian knew being faithful was an important aspect of it.

F is for Faithful in Friendship….and that’s the tone of today’s tale…
Linking this post for A to Z Challenge. As I promised in the theme reveal post, as part of the Challenge I’m going to write short stories with one or more emotions beginning with the alphabet of the day as the prompt or central idea for the post. Hope you enjoy the challenge!
Linking this to UBC too.

Hi, popping in from the A-Z – faithful is one of my favourite words, whether it's in relation to my husband, my friends or my beliefs.

🙂 This was the story of most of us from school/college days 😀 😀 😉 Remembering good old days!!!
Yes, faithfulness and loyalty is so important in a friendship.
thats how true friendship is 🙂 and in college days, the option of walkin out seems like reward rather than punishment
That's such a sweet friendship 🙂 beautiful write.
Faith & Friendship are loyal comrades…
Beautifully Done, Naba! 🙂
Always…pinky promise 😉
Friendship ….faithfulness….forever,
amazing relationship in human life

Awww…thia was such a cute story. Lovely!
Cute story! Loved it. Friends should be faithful at all costs! ♥
While Vivien shielding Neha as a friend is commendable, is he also not sending out a message that he will shield her even if she does wrong things? Was wondering.
Vivian is my kinda guy! Hugs Naba. What a treat it is to read your posts!
Love,
Vidya
Awesome! Friendship 🙂
Aaah, friends that stand beside you through thick and thin are friends for life 🙂
Aww..such a cute story.
That's a cute friendship 😀 Love the way he winks at Neha 😀 😀

Wish their friendship lasts even when Vivian and Neha grow up 🙂
Like Vivian a lot. Recently my daughter did something similar in school and I am proud of her…Another nice read.

That's a friendship to die for! Amazingly sweet of Vivian! great post Naba, as usual 🙂

Smile, it makes (y)our day!
Aww….. wish I had a friend like that!!! Beautiful write! Short and extremely sweet… 🙂
AWWW>> that is too sweet! What lovely friends your characters have, Nibha. Makes me want to be in your stories 🙂
Great story! how we all need friends like that!
How cute was this 🙂
friendship being my weakness, I could totally relate to it! Nice story!
That took me back to my schooldays. One of the teachers always threw me out of class even though my friend would be the one jabbering. She was my best friend then, she still is. Friendships are special. Nice one.
Now that's true friendship. Nice post and how you showed the emotion in such a short word count.
Very cute post, Nabanita. Childhood friendships are where we are the most faithful, aren't we? No scene of ratting out on any friend!
very cute, short and sweet post on friendship Naba. It is so difficult to find good friends these days!
Childhood friendships are the best, because they're forged without any agenda at all.
Thanks for bringing me back some lovely memories!

Very sweet post !
Naba, I have nominated you for the Sunshine Award. Kindly read my post on this subject. Congrats.
But this story is now fiction, finding such friends are a rarity..
Richa
It is difficult to find friends of such calibre, but they do exist. 🙂 Thanks for adding me to the above tags.
You managed to convey your point very effectively even with such a short story. Truly, writing flash fiction is an art!
Dagny
Short & sweet !
I found friends like this and boy! Am I glad I did. I'd go mad if I didn't have my bestie!

Wow
Beautiful friendship, loved this post.
I was the Neha in college. 😉
aaaw cute… but what kind of friend is Neha then?
this is such a sweet story ! loved reading this ! thanks for sharing !
I like that Vivian didn't even have to think twice about leaving or ratting. Probably not the kind of class one wants to be in anyway…nicely done. Gail
