First Day in High School - Essay Example

I think he was just too lonely and depressed. Her mother should have comforted her but to my surprise, the article stated at the end that both of his parents died when he was two years old and after which his grandparents took care of him. I was very sad and badly bothered by that fact. My beloved father died three years ago. What if my mom will leave me too? It was a frightening moment then.    It was my first day in high school.
