The Assignment

When we first moved to Fountain Hills our daughter was having a terrible time making friends. One day we received a call from the school counselor. We had never spoken to the school counselor before and were a little embarrassed that our daughter was so lonely that she had asked to see the counselor. We talked and the counselor said she was going to assign Megan a friend. I was a little doubtful about the idea, but wanted to help Megan as much as I could, so that day Erica became Megan’s friend. The two girls became insepperable and were friends throughout elementary school, middle school, high school and now, even in college they maintain her friendship. When Erica comes over I tell her the assignment is over, she no longer needs to be Megan’s friend, but for some reason she keeps on being Megan’s friend.
