Male Female

Last week, my friend borrowed my favorite book and then lost it at the very beginning. After hearing that news from him, I was feeling upset inside. To be honest, I'm not the one to fly off the handle, but that book has sentimental value to me; I received it as a gift from my father after a long business trip abroad. I wouldn't be able to buy a second copy in Vietnam. I felt a little regretful when I planned to lend him the book without reminding him to take good care of it. When I heard his explanation about the unexpected situation, he said he was willing to face the music and would buy two new books for me, and I accepted his apology.
