Eric asked Pete,"Do you want to ride with Dave and me this Saturday?""Of course!" Pete answered. He smiled at his friends,but in fact he was worried. He didn't know how to ride,but how could he tell his friends that?It was embarrassing(令人难堪的).
When he went home,he got out his bike. Though he couldn't ride,he had a bike. His parents bought it for his birthday months ago. When he first got it,he was excited and tried to learn. After a day or two,he gave up. His mother smiled to see him trying again. Pete walked his bike to a park and tried to ride. But after an hour,he still couldn't ride. He didn't know what he was going to do.
The next day,Eric,Dave and Pete had lunch together. "Are you ready for the big bike trip?"Dave asked.
"Oh,that …"Pete said sadly. How could he tell his best friends that he couldn't ride a bike?
"What's wrong?"Eric asked.
"It's just…"
"You can't ride a bike," Dave said.
"No,I can't. "
"We know," Eric said.
"Really?" Pete asked. "Why did you invite me?"
"You've got the coolest bike. We're going to help you learn," Eric said.
Pete couldn't believe what he was hearing. "That's great. I thought you were going to make fun of me. "
Dave shook his head. "We're friends. Why would we do that?"
"I guess I'm just too proud to ask for help,"Pete said.
That Saturday,Pete finally learned to ride his bike.
