Fiona was popular at school. She was clever and fun. She was kind and friendly to everyone. She invited all her classmates to her birthday party, and sometimes she gave presents(礼物)to her friends. She was a busy girl so she never spent time with only one friend.
Everything changed on National Friendship Day. On that day, everyone got three presents and gave them to their three best friends. Fiona enjoyed buying presents for three of her friends. But when all the students gave their presents to each other, Fiona was the only one who didn't get a present! She felt terrible, and spent hours crying. Why?
When she came home at night, she asked her mother for advice, “My dear, you're a nice girl,” said her mother, “but you can't be a close friend to everybody.
