Once,
A boy who has specical needs, came up to me & said,

"Can you be my friend"?

I was about 7. And i looked at him and i didn't know what to say.  I wanted to say "Yes" but everyone would think i'm a dork. Because, i've noticed he was getting bullied by the "cool" kids. He quickly turned away and said to me. "N-Nevermind, i'm sorry for asking" I walked over to him and said. "I would love too". Then i actually found out,
what the real meaning of,

Friendship is.
