i have disliked and not trusted girls like the one in white since elementary school
(because of a girl named angela widenhof, she was a classmate at underwood, but i never talked or socialized with her, she was very arrogant and unfriendly, she was always dressed in big frilly dresses with lace, she even wore makeup and lots of blush at that age. When we went to lunch, or recess, or gym we had to walk in a single file line, she was always directly in front of me. One day out of the blue, i was summoned to the principals office, angela had told the teachers and principal that i had been throwing her down the stairs everyday for a month. The teachers had never seen anything but they were still very upset with me and i had to beg and plead and probably cry, and eventually our parents got involved. Nothing ever happened and i didn't get in trouble but i remember being so confused as to why she would tell them i had been throwing her down the stairs for a month.
