True friendship is often tested in moments of hardship, and for two friends whose bond began in primary school, that test came far earlier than expected.
Their story dates back 25 years ago, when they were still young pupils. One afternoon, a group of bullies planned to ambush one of them after school. Rather than heading home, his close friend chose to stay behind, determined to protect him and ensure his safety. It was an act of bravery that would define their friendship forever.
After the tense situation passed, the two friends began their walk home together. Tragedy struck along the way when a speeding vehicle, reportedly driven by an intoxicated driver, knocked down the young boy who had stood up in defense of his friend. The impact left him with severe injuries to his legs.
He remained unconscious for two days before waking up to devastating news — he would never walk again.
In the face of this life-altering reality, a promise was made. His friend vowed never to abandon him, choosing loyalty and companionship over circumstance. That promise has endured.
Today, 25 years later, their bond remains unbroken. What began as childhood friendship has grown into a powerful story of sacrifice, resilience, and unwavering support — a reminder that true friendship stands firm, even when life takes an unexpected turn.
