Once I lent my laptop to my best friend as she had broken her and had to attempt her exams online.
When did it happen?
This happened at the time of lockdown almost four years back.
Why did he/she ask to borrow the item?
As mentioned she had to attempt her exams online and also prepare for the same. All her preparation material was online and she had to regularly attempt mock tests to gain confidence for the main exam day.

I am a very selfless person, I never mind helping anyone till the time things are in my hands and I can confidently say that I can do it. Even if I am not able to help anyone, I often suggest to them with the best knowledge I have about the concerns that worry people associated with me. At this time, I was able to see the way she was progressing in her preparation and her happiness often made my day. Lockdown times had made people suffer from many issues and this little gesture added happiness to her life.

There are times when someone asks us for help. I am more than willing to help someone who needs my help. There was a time when my friend next door asked me for an airfryer.
When did it happen? & Why did he/she ask to borrow the item?
It has been approximately 4 months since she asked for the same. She was a bit hesitant to ask for it initially but when my reply was assertive, she felt relieved as she could not instantly get her airfryer fixed. She needed it as she had some guests coming over and her own air fryer had stopped working due to some technical issues.
Why did he/she ask to borrow the item?
She needed it because she had hosted a dinner party that day at her place and was making some dishes that had to be air fried. I personally know this about her: she is health conscious and likes to make and eat healthy food.
Explain how you felt about this.
I am always happy to be of help to someone and this time helping my friend gave me satisfaction that I could be of help to someone in need. It is the inner satisfaction one gets when they are of use to someone.
