There was a big map of the world on the wall and an old blackboard. I don't think I was worried or at that time. There was another little boy next to me. He sat there and kept silent at first.

She went to the littel boy, and said something to him. I couldn't hear what she said. Soon the boy stopped crying and began to smile. To this day, I still don't know what the teacher said to the little boy.
