Once there was a 16-year-old girl who entered a new school. She left her old school of 10 years because she flunked Algebra. That day she was wearing her old Justice League shirt and a jacket and a pair of faded jeans. She scoured around the hall, and she feels so alienated. So alienated for the people in her new school are way different than the people at her old school.
Fast forward to the classroom. Every newcomer was asked to introduce herself to the class. So when this girl stood up, all eyes were on her. Especially the eyes of her future friend. So the newbie introduced herself in fluent English, matter-of-factly speaking in a friendly tone. And the future friend cocked one eyebrow, and another girl did the same. They were not liking what they were seeing.
These two girls began to taunt the newcomer. They taunt her because she dressed up differently, and because she spoke English. The newcomer felt so annoyed about the girls. She wasn't even talking to them.
Everyday these two girls went on annoying her, pointing to her clothes, her way of speaking, and her ideas...even the way she makes friends. Then the newcomer thought: is there anyway they could stop them from following me?
