Theese are short moments/memories between kelly and I. 1. There were 2 times this happend. I was broke and Kelly had 2 dollars only to his name. He knew i needed that dollar and i asked him for it, and even though he only had 2... Kelly shared his other dollar with me. Knowing that he would want it later in the day to.... yet he did it anyway. When that moment happend i remember thinking to myself "wow, i can't beleive he just did that, cause i wouldn't have". I woulda kept both my dollars. 2. Kelly loved my baby. He loved him when he was in my tummy, and everytime i would come over he would talk to my son in my belly and say hello. I would sometimes leave the baby in the car seat while i did something around the house and i would tell Kellyj " if he cries just leave him, i'll get him as soon as i'm done". Kelly would be sick as hell to, flu or whatever, but obviuosly not felling well. Yet he would not let that baby cry. He covered his face with his shirt(so he wouldnt spread his germs), and he would rock my son and sway him and talk to him to keep him happy and from crying. It may not seem like much, but really.... here is this man who is so sick he can hardley get up from the couch where he had been resting all day, but still he wanted that little baby to be happy and smile and couldnt dare to let him sit there and cry for 3 minutes. Not the little baby Kelly loved so much. This child who had no relation to him. He put his sickness aside and did what he needed to do in order to make my son happy for those 3 little minutes, regardless of how he felt. I will forever hold that with me. It may not seem like much, but to me, in my eyes, it was a tremendous display of the type of person he was and how he put other's first before himself. Thank you for that Kelly. I will forever hold that moment with me. 3. When he spoke of his daughter. I remember one time he was so excited and happy and just blabbing away about how he was going to see his daughter the next day and they were going to hang out. I think he said shopping maybe. He said how he understood that she probley didn't want to hang out with her "old" dad since she was 13(i think), and at that age you just want to be with your friends... not your parents! lol. Kelly understood this and was trying to think of ways to hang out with her so that she would not be bored. So that they could do something fun together and she wouldn't be bored, like hanging with an old person. He was SOOO happy and excited to know he was gonna see her and hang out with her, yet at the same time he understood that hanging out with him would most likely be boring for her, so he was thinking so much how to make it work so she would not be bored hanging with this "old man". Just another example of how he always thought of others first. 4. Wasen't sure if i should put this one in here or not, but i'l make it to the point. I got mad at Kelly once for something, and you better beleive i let him know it. We argued over text for 2 days.. saying some harsh stuff. At the end of day 2, Kelly called me a few times. I didnt answer. He texted and asked me to please call him. I didnt call him. After about an hour he left me a voicemail. The voicemail said how he was so sorry we were fighting and he was sorry for everything that he had said, he said it from anger and did not mean it. He said our friendship was not worth being over, over something so silly. He apologized in that voicemail at least 4 times. He deeply asked for our friendship to be back to normal. The thing is though.... it was all my fault. I started the fight. I said something i should not have said. He was right the entire time and i was the wrong one! Yet, he called and basically begged for us to make up, saying oh just HOW SORRY he was. He had no reason to be sorry, that was what i was suppose to do. He was suppose to be the one hearing my apology and deciding if he wanted to accept it. Not the other way around. See.... it did not matter to Kelly who was right or wrong or who started it or whatnot. All that matterd was that we made up and did not fight any longer. Kelly hated drama and being in a negative place. He let hisself pretend it was his fault and he was wrong just so things could be fixed and be back to normal. I remember after listning to that voicemail, how dumbfounded i was that he apologized when he had no place to do so. That was my place. I felt like a complete a** at that moment. I called him and told him it was cool. I don't even remember if i apologized back. It was never brought up again and we went directly back to being the way we had before, as if it had never happend. Real friends forgive without holding hostile feelings inside.
