Ciao poet, you have your first vote!
It's a shame people tend to judged others by their looks... school is the first place where you get a taste of this cruel behaviour.
Kids wearing glasses, those overweight or have a speech defect are considered all outsiders.
Those like Betsy and Harold with a health condition or Rebecca with ugly scars are keep at a distance by the other kids.
It's a hurtful behaviour and so unfair.
School should be a happy place where kids come to learn new things and make friends. For some sadly it's a place of pain and dread.

Please read and review He Was Able To Forgive His Dad.
Comment from Paul McFarland
This is a very good "feel good" story, Darla. You are leaving the reader wanting to know what happened to Leslie. It would have been good if you had a happy ending for Leslie, too.

Thanks! I did the story the best I could.

I didn't have time to write any more in the story. I think it is exceptional

I think you did a really good job with this story. I think it falls a little short of exceptional.

It was a really good job.

It was exceptional, but it got disqualified. The contest committee said it had fewer than 800 words, and it had 805.

After tragedy we can be scarred and life can take a turn for the worst and finding a like minded friend can often lift our spirits, a poignant story full of horror and also love and understanding, much enjoyed, love Dolly x

"The Outsider"
As I was reviewing this it remind me a little bit of the song by Neil Diamond.
"Solitary Man"
And since I've been a way to work almost 20 years is November it works well for me.
Thanks,
Doctor Ricky
