“Unforgettable Eccentricities: 50 Creepy Ways the ‘Weird’ Kid Made Their Mark on School Life”
Uhh I’m late and this story isn’t funny at all but here it goes
She never spoke and was hard to communicate but a sweet girl. Didn’t understand most things, got overwhelmed and overstimulated quickly. Our teacher assigned another student to take care of her at all times, this student was also a little child so had no idea how to manage her friend. We would often hear her scream from (now I understand) overstimulation.
I transferred to that school at 5th grade, and on my first, very nervous day, she came to me, held my hand, kissed it and put it on her forehead. It’s a sign of respect to elders in my country to kiss a hand like this. I was very confused as I wasn’t her senior. After getting to know her a bit more I realized she was trying to comfort me in her own way. I had more sympathy and more importantly more respect for her after that, something I felt she severely needed.
