When I was about that age, I kind of a crybaby. No. I'm literally a crybaby. Like one time, when I was sleeping when the teacher explained the subject, my deskmate pull my ear to wake me up, and of course, I woke up with tears glistering in my eyes. And another student who saw it started to shout—woooo—like that, to my deskmate (and all of the other students starts to shout too). Thus, tears fall from my eyes. That was in 3rd grade.
Truth to be told, since, before that incident, I was already known for being a crybaby. So almost all of the other students tend to avoid me, except for that deskmate (he's a new student). Funny enough, in 4th grade, he becomes one of my closest friends till 7th grade. Lol.
Now, this is the crux of my story, my reputation as a crybaby makes the students around me, treat me as a fragile glass filled tears. And the bullies too didn't even date to touch me, I was an outcast, but at the same time, I was not. Kinda hard to explain. At that time, I feel empty, yes, my life is peaceful and I'm grateful for that, but still, something is missing.
And boom, in 5th grade, I finally realize what was missing. The ridicule of the bullies! I mean, all of the boys in the class were ridiculed by the bullies to some extent. Except for me. It's like they didn't even acknowledge my existence! Back in 5th grade, I was heading to my class that morning, when one of the bullies walk in my direction, and bam! He suddenly choked me on the neck, and I was so flustered that I didn't think anything at that time—I didn't even feel it hurt until the teacher stopped him. And I was so bewildered by the sudden change, I mean, what the hell? And this time, I didn't cry! Hooray for me!

Since that day, every morning he would wait for me in front of my class just to strangle me. And damn that's hurt. But a part of me was happy that I was treated like other classmates.

That's the most memorable thing that happened in 5th grade.
P.s. I'm not a masochist. It's just that one time okay?!
P.s.s. at some point, I was annoyed by the frequent choking, so I choose to go to class behind my teacher.
