Saying Sorry Goes A Long Way

As a human being, there are things we should always learn to say, and one of them how to tender an apology just so they can be peace, either you are at fault or not. Especially in a relationship which is full of up and down, I even see it as a trial and error stage, we shouldn't be too big to use the word "I'm Sorry". There is this scenerio that almost cost me my friendship, I'm someone that got angry easily but always try my best not to be offended by anyone and that make me to always stay alone and only answer when been called upon. I have this guy which was my friend in school and we live close to each other so we can easily meet after school and we literally do almost everything together.

So we get use to each other and as a lady, I really like him but saying that to a guy might means you are too forward even if it is your friend and the believe was that a guy should be the one saying all the I love you statement, we play, we gist and he always spend something with me after school and we even enjoy cooking together to top it all, but we never allow it to pass that stage, it was as if we zone each other. In school there is this girl, I really don't like or talk to due to her saucy behaviour, she was so rude that she never cared for anyone reaction and she like stepping on people toes just to look for their trouble, I didn't know she was throwing passes at my friend and perhaps add him to her list of guys, I didn't even noticed that until the day I was discussing with this my friend and he told me he is going on a dinner date with that same girl I didn't like, I was angry within me and I really didn't want that to happen, I told him not to go but you know guys at times are so stubborn and they will always want to fulfil what is in their mind. Since he didn't listen to me, I decided to surprised him with a hidden plan. On that faithful day, I visited him as usual and was acting like I want him to go, so I was helping him with what he will wear, he actually picked a good cloth to wear but I did something I shouldn't do, I locked him up in his room and ran away and he couldn't get out since his spare key is also with me.

He called and called but I didn't pick up, he shouted but no have the key to unlock the door, he was stuck inside for like 2 hours and he had to cancel the date that day, the girl was angry though but I didn't even care, I free my guy but he didn't talk to me for days, I knew I was wrong though since what I did was really bad, I had to beg everyday and even make his favorite food before he forgive him and he also apologise for neglecting me for days even when he is the victim in this case, and later we laughed it off, It was really a funny moment. Saying sorry even when you are a victim shouldn't be a hard thing to do, it even go a long way to fixed up things even in marriage, if you are wrong or not, apologise and let the issue end.
