My first day at school i had friends. I was a bit bossy though.
I used to tell them 'Lets do that' and 'Lets do this'.
Then they got fed up with me bossing them around.
"Hey, lets not be his friend," said my friends and they all agreed.
"I don't need them," i said carelessly.
They all started to walk away.
I spent the whole month playing with no one.
I started to feel lonely, so i decided to say sorry.
"No, we don't want you anymore and that's the end of it," they said.
But i was very upset. I didn't want to go to school any more. But i had to.
One day a new boy started school. I felt surprised and happy.
"Do you want to be my freind?" I asked nervously.
"Yeah, of course. You're the only person i can play with," he said.
We were just about to become friends when my old crowd came round.
Now i was making a new friend, they realised what it would be like without me.
I never became bossy again.
Later i had to go to another school. This time everyone tried to boss me around and whenever I wanted to say something they completely ignored me. I felt very very sad. I wanted to leave this school, but i couldn't...
