    Be small, don’t make waves, you are not a hurricane. Small, small, quiet now. Am I good? I don’t deserve this, no I shouldn’t, I’m not good enough- there’s a better choice out there. Cain. Able.

    (type your memoir here) I didn’t even find out from Jaidan herself. It was at the science field trip in fourth grade when Katie Simons came up to me and said, “I like your outfit, by the way Jaidan is moving to Hong Kong!” That little side note at the end sounded like a joke at first, but I realized she was completely serious when I saw Jaidan out of the corner of my eyes, her shoulders shrugged and mouth pinched. “I was gonna give you a mint!” She exclaimed, elbowing Katie in the side.

After several moments of awkward glares, I to became frustrated. The only thought that ran through my mind was how could she have done such a thing?
