Three of them appeared to be <a href=\"https:\/\/www.verywellfamily.com\/consequences-of-name-calling-460613\">name calling<\/a> the other on who looked timid, when I approached them asking for directions, they turned their backs on me and called onto the fourth one, &#8220;hey chicken legs, show that confused stranger some directions, it looks like he overslept in the bus and drove past his destination, now he has lost his way.&#8221; they yelled at her. She then slowly came over, listened carefully to my request, then opened what seemed to be a diary, opened a blank new page, picked out a felt pen from her hand bag then drew all the directions with the landmarks in it as she explained.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>What I noticed was that she spoke in a softer, gentler tone like a kid who is being interrogated by a fierce teacher. Her friends could probably be responsible for putting this habit on her. Upon finishing she tore off the page and handed it over to me, &#8220;be careful with your luggage&#8221; she said, but before letting her go, I had to ask one more question, who are those girls?(<em>now standing several feet away<\/em>) why do they say those cruel things to you? Some of the names they called you were completely unspeakable. &#8220;They are the only friends I have,\u201d she replied. Then said no more, she went back to join them where they were standing near the booth. I had no choice but to pick up my backpack and boarded the bus, all throughout the journey I thought what in the world is this , why do people spray urine onto your face after you have kindly shown them the directions of the washroom, is being too soft dangerous?.<\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p>\r\n\r\n<\/p>\r\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator is-style-wide\" \/>\r\n<p>\r\n\r\n<\/p>\r\n<table style=\"border-collapse: collapse; width: 100%;\">\r\n<tbody>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td style=\"width: 25.0189%;\">\u00a0<\/td>\r\n<td style=\"width: 54.6485%;\">\r\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=v3PXM3aVWVo\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=v3PXM3aVWVo<\/a><\/p>\r\n<\/td>\r\n<td style=\"width: 20.3325%;\">\u00a0<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n<\/tbody>\r\n<\/table>\r\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator is-style-wide\" \/>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; &nbsp; I have witnessed this happen numerous times to people who make the choice of playing Mr. nice guy to others, I once came across four young women in a countryside bus station looking for someone to help me find my way to the next town.
