Hi! I’m Luciana. I live in Houston, Texas. On my first day of school, something bad happened. Some girls named Caroline, Michelle, Lily, and Everly all bullied me. They had a group called The Unstoppable girls.  They called me names! They said I was the ugliest kid they had ever seen. But I didn’t tell on them. They were my friends! I didn’t want them to not be friends with me! The very next day at P.E. I was getting a ball from the cart and Everly pushed me in the cart! Something scary happened. The P.E. teachers didn’t hear me or see me in the cart because there were more balls on top of me. They put the cart in the closet and locked the door. I managed to unlock the door and escape. I had a clip in my hair so I put it in the lock and unlocked the door. But at the time, my class had already left! I didn’t know where they went so I asked a teacher in the hallway. She said that they are boarding a bus to go on a field trip.”

“What!”, I screamed. They were about to leave me alone! I ran as fast as I could. Thankfully, I caught up with them and got on the bus. I was really tired. It was a good thing that the place I was going to was 4 hours away. I could get a lot of rest. Oh wait! Did I tell you where we are going? I don’t think I did. We are going to an indoor playground. Isn’t that fun!? I think it is. When we got there, everyone rushed in. At the indoor playground, there was a huge slide. I was scared at first but when I went on it, I had so much fun.I was having the best day of my life until The unstoppable girls showed up. They did something really dangerous to me. Since the slide was really long, it would take about 5 minutes to get to the end. When the person in front of me went down the slide, Lily who was behind me pushed me in the slide! I almost hit the person in front of me! I got really worried that I was going to hit the person in front of me. It was a miracle that didn’t happen. I was so relieved. The next day I went to school I saw The Unstoppable girls at the gate. I thought maybe if I hide from them and they don’t find me they will leave me alone! Nope. That is not going to happen. They found me. Again. I wonder how they always find me? That’s really weird. Oh, right. I got carried away.

Anyway, where was I. Oh right. I was done with them. I had to tell someone. Oh, I know who I can tell. I can tell Mrs. Woodsen. The counselor. I asked the teacher when I could go to her room. She said I could go at break time. When break time came, I asked her again. She said I could go with Liliana. I asked Liliana “ Hey, Liliana. Can you go to the counselor with me?”. “Yeah, sure!!”. When we got there, we knocked on the door. “ Come in!” said  Mrs. Woodsen. When I came in, she told me to sit down and tell her why I was here. I told her about The Unstoppable Girls and what they had done to me. “That is definitely inappropriate!”, she said. “ I will talk to them tomorrow and tell them that what they are doing is not nice. I was kinda glad I told the counselor. Now they won’t be mean to me! The next day, something unusual happened. The Unstoppable Girls apologized to me! Isn’t that great?! Know we could be friends again.
