My whole class was getting ready for the walkout and going on the protest. It was a good cause, but it wasn't the one I was interested in. I was getting fed up of no one caring or even being aware of the cause I cared about, so I decided to put my walkout to good use.
I made my own signs and marched my own path. I saw my classmates and they were all following the most popular girl in class. She saw me not following her and asked me why.
I told her my position and opinions and what I saw was going on in the world. The popular girl then ordered our classmates to keep going and she was gonna hang out with me for a while. They looked confused as they walked on, not knowing what to do or where to go.
She hung out with me for the rest of the afternoon, holding my hand and giving me support, helping my word to get out there and catch on.
