As he came back to my memory, he helped me establish new friends along with him. We stayed by each other all the time and helped each other when needed.
During recess one day, I couldn’t find Jose anywhere. Out of the blue, jose comes running towards me crying, nosebleeding.

I immediately got furious and told him I’ll handle this. I look at him as a little brother. During recess the next day, I was mad all morning all because I knew my friend was being bullied. I walked straight to cory and strictly told him “ Leave my brother alone!” “... and if I don’t?” He ran straight to Jose and hit him in his back and made his knee start bleeding.
