The first year of middle school was a rough road. I missed elementary school but I knew that there was no turning back. In one of my classes there was a bully that nobody liked. He bullied everyone, including me. I felt so hated and I felt like I didn't belong in this world anymore. The bully came up to me one day when I was at my locker. He said to me "If I ever see your face again, something bad is going to happen." I got scared that day. I was thinking about suicide. A girl came up to me and said "he won't do anything to you." I smiled a little. She invited me to her house because she thought that it would be my last day. She made me feel good about myself that day. We grew up to be the best of friends, and when we'd share our best moments I would always tell her that meeting you was the best memory that I will ever have.
