The kind of person you just don’t harass. But behind his back, you could call him names Like gorilla or fatso, it’s all the same. But I don’t know why we did. he never bothered us. He never bullied, or cheated, or lied, or such. He was only different from the rest. Was that why we treated him second best? Was that why the boys never asked him to play football? Was that why they all giggled when he walked down the hall? I never understood then, but now I can see That what happened to him. could happen to me. Stop a minute and just think. If you didn’t follow the crowd would you swim or sink? The way we treated him. it was so very bad. And now that he’s gone, it seems quite sad.
