"Hey!"the voice called from behind me."Are you a girl or a duck?"I ignored the comments because I knew they were from the meangirl,Betsy I ran to my class,causing my slight limp(跛行) to become even more apparent.Already,I could see that things would be different here.At my oldschool,I had a group of friends to protect me.However,in this new school,I was on my own.I took my place in the first row of desks and I was grateful for alphabetic seating.My last name came at the beginning of the alphabet and Betsy's last name came at the end.As the weeks went on,though,I made friends with two girls named Fran and Lisa who sat near me in class.Whenever Betsy made one of herremarks,they would wave it off and tell me to ignore her.
Still,I hated that I didn't walk like everyone else.I didn't like not being able to run as fast or as straight as the other kids and I didn't like getting picked last for teams ingymclass.Mostly,though,I really hated it when people like Betsy made negative remarks about how I walked.
One day,our teacher asked us to changeseats."Class,"our teacher addressed us one morning,"you've been in the same seats for a full semester and you've become friendly with thestudents around you.Now it's time to change seats and make some newfriends."The class let out a collective moan(抱怨).As she assigned the new seating,Fran,Lisa,and I looked at each other and waited for our names to be called.We didn't want to be separated.And we especially didn't want to sit anywhere near Betsy.Finally,Betsy sat directly behind me.
I knew this wasn't going to be good and I soon discovered I was right.Betsy often leaned into my back:"Quack,quack!"When I ignored her,she kicked my seat.When that didn't work,she poked(戳)me.This went on daily untilonemorning I simply refused to go to school.I told Mom what had happened at school.
