Helping A Shy Boy To Make New Friends
A few days ago, I noticed a boy standing alone in the cafeteria before school. The cafeteria was filled with girls and boys laughing and talking to each other. I had never seen this boy before. I assumed that he was new.
As I looked closer at him, I noticed that he seemed to be very sad. I then walked over to him and started up a conversation. I found that he was a very kind boy, just a little shy. After the bell rang, I had to go to class but I told him that I would see him tomorrow.
As I said, I did see him the next day. But to my surprise, he was standing talking to a group of kids. I felt warmth in my heart when I saw this. By my talking to him yesterday, I obviously made him gain confidence in himself. The group that he was talking to seemed to really like him. They always sat with him at lunch, and engaged him in conversation.
At the end of that day, I saw him walking out and he gave me a heart-warming smile. I now realize what can happen if you start a chain reaction.
