Metamorphosis
Kids are dumb. Especially when they're fourteen.
Vivian was this really fat girl in my Algebra class. Her friend passed me a note via my friend: Vivian likes you.
She waited for me in the cafeteria.
Her face was cute, but I didn't want to be seen with her.
"I don't like that fat girl," I shouted so all would hear.
Since then I can't bear to see her cry.
Yesterday, over breakfast, I asked my son to pass a birthday card to her.
She cried.
"You know, Dad, sometimes you're a real dumb guy."
I smiled. "I know, Son."
