My phone was more than just a device - it was my connection to the world. From making calls to capturing life's special moments and accessing business opportunities, it was my constant companion.
But in an instant, everything changed.
I lost my phone in the most infuriating way imaginable. I was riding a public transport bus with my friend Rejoice, scrolling through my phone when she suddenly snatched it from my hands to view a post. After she was done, she carelessly tossed it back, and it landed face-down on the floor.
I was livid but tried to remain calm. Rejoice, however, showed no remorse; she simply sat silently, as if unaware of the damage she had caused.
When I arrived home, I borrowed my mom's phone to call Rejoice and inform her of the damage. Shockingly, she still didn't apologize, instead saying, "Tell me when you're ready to fix it, and I'll help."
Now, I'm phoneless and struggling to make ends meet. I desperately need a phone, but lack the funds for repairs.

STOPWow, that would be terrible. I can't go without my phone for very long.
Just tell her the plain truth with calm tact. She broke it. Email her the repair bill when its fixed. This will test a true friendship. 😬
Wow! I'm sorry this happened to you. I am very protective of my phone because it cost so much. I tend to hang on to them for several years before getting the latest and greatest device. It is an investment for sure, and an extension of our right hands! Maybe since she carelessly tossed it, she needs to foot the entire repair bill? Just food for thought. I hope you can figure out a way to get it repaired. Next time she asks, or tries to grab it, refuse to let go. Take care and good luck. !LADY !HOPE
