Sample Answer:
An apology can work wonders and it is one of the best ways to rectify one’s mistakes or
misdemeanours with someone. I remember I had a minor fallout with one of
our school
prefects back in the days, and we were at loggerheads for over a week. However, his apology
was enough to call it a truce and to placate the hard feelings we shared.
In our school, there was a provision for making prefects for every house we had, i.e., red,
yellow house, etc. I was the prefect of the Red House and the guy named Thomas was a prefect
of the Blue House. Thomas and I shared a good bond and were very amenable to each other.
One day he planned to go absent from the annual function of our school and wanted me to
miss it as well so that both of us would be at the harsh receiving end of the slander and chide.
However, I denied his plans, so he had to come to school as well. After that, we were at tiffs for
almost a week until he realised how silly it was on his part to miss
the function on such an
important day and, above all, wanted me to strike a chord with him. He apologised for his
conduct and I happily accepted that.
He came to me, smiled, and said sorry for all he did.
As he accepted his mistake, I
showed no
sign of rigidity and accepted the apology. I felt good about the situation, which made our bond
stronger than ever. We never turned back again to any resentment and enmity toward each
other and our friendship emboldened so much so, that we still are friends.
