When I was a sixth grader, kids were separating into groups, but I wasn't sure where I belonged．
Our teacher gave us a task called 'secret friends' for the coming week．We were supposed to do nice things 1our friends without letting them know who was doing it．We could leave 2notes or cards either on their desks or in their backpacks．Before doing the task, with our eyes closed, from a basket, we 3a name of a classmate who we were to secretly befriend over the next five days．
Soon, the task was turned into a competition of giving 4instead of notes．Everyone was getting cool presents except me．My friend followed the teacher's 5without a fault．I received nothing but handmade cards with nice words about me．
On the last morning, I finally got a package．When I6it, the girls around all 7．It was perfumed powder, an 'old lady' gift．My face went red．
I tried to forget about the 8gift, but when the same girls 9it again during the break in the bathroom, I joined in, 'How stupid! My grandmother wouldn't10want it．' The girls laughed at my11and filed out of the bathroom．Washing my hands, I let the water run through my fingers 12I thought about my words．It wasn't 13like me to say things like that．
'I'm your secret friend．' It was Rochelle．' I' m sorry about the gift,' she whispered to me, tears14down her face．
From a poor family, she was a 15at school for those with rich parents．Yet she just took all the16and the horrible treatment silently．
I was sick to my stomach as my 17words ran through my mind．She had heard everything．How could I have been so cruel?
Later I learned she had felt bad all week about not being able to leave me any cool present and her mum had given up her only luxury（奢侈品）
And I had18everything for her．
I told her that I had only said those things to try to 19.
'We aren't that different from each other, are we?' She smiled20．Her words, spoken from her heart, found their way straight into mine．
