I once knew a girl that no one knew nothing about. Everyone at school thought that she was kind of strange because she never really talked to anyone. She even seemed like she didn’t have any friends. I was curious about her, so I decided to talk to her one day. She seemed surprised that someone was talking to her and I could hear my friends laughing in the cafeteria about it. She looked embarrassed, but I still sat next to her. I asked her if she had any hobbies and she started to open up. Since that moment she has become one of my best friends!
