It was then when you were spending a last
year in elementary school. You was at the age of 13. You liked a girl in same
class. Since you were 4th grader, she was your classmate, and I bet
you liked her since then; which means that you loved her for 3 years.
But as you remember, you were extremely
fat, that you got a ‘warning’ level from physical test. Especially your belly
was as big as when the frog rabbiting. It was your complex, so you always kept your
belly shrank when you were at the school. Oh, you remember that it was the
major reason why you didn’t tell her that you like her. You know, you were
always tall before the age of 15(since then, you haven’t grow up), you were the
best in every subject except physical education. However, always, the belly was
problematic. As you do know, your nickname is Fat Raccoon since 13.
Of course, though you tried your best to
hide your belly, it was too big to be hidden. However, you thought that it
worked thoroughly, so you always seek for a chance to say I love you.
You do remember the day of awful Monday. I
can’t remember the date exactly, but it was Monday I bet. Do you remember the
date? You don’t? Okay. But I’m sure it was Monday that awful thing happened to
you.
It was 5th period, and we were
studying sociology. In text book, there was a conversation between various jobs
such as teacher, doctor, constructor, and other jobs, because the book was
talking about ‘jobs’, and each character was explaining about their jobs.
The teacher wanted students to do the
action; she made you guys to pick a role and act(actually just reading the
textbook) in front of the class. You was chosen to act the teacher, and your
friends took others. However, all of your friends just read about their roles
in their seat. Unfortunately you were the last one to speak out, and your
teacher wanted you to come in front of the class, because others didn’t. You
really didn’t wanted to go to the front, but your friends pulled you out from
the seat. After a minute, you were at the front of the class.
So, you read the text in front of your
classmates. However, after that, your teacher wanted you to entertain the
classmates. Oh yeah, I bet it was your teacher’s real purpose. Because everyone
in your class was sleeping due to the time(it was right before lunch time, so
everyone was sleeping). Well, as I saw, you seemed you really didn’t want to
entertain them. Of course, it wasn’t your role to entertain, and you didn’t
want to be embarrassed in front of the girl that you love. And that’s how it all
began.
You tried to run away and rushed to your
seat in order to seat down. Well. Most students were already waked up, and
starring at you, so I think it was quiet reasonable to seat down. However, your
teacher grabbed you, when you were rushing to your seat.
Unfortunate for me, she failed to grab other
parts of your body, but she succeeded in grabbing your shirt. Wow. I was
surprised too, and you seemed very surprised. You were dashing to your seat, so
you lost a control on your belly, so the belly was drooped towards the floor,
and spread towards the front. With the situation of ‘to take out energy from
the belly and put it on the leg muscle to run’, she pulled your shirt. Shit.
You accidentally showed your gigantic belly
to your classmates; of course, the girl also saw it. You hit the table and
dropped your face down with embarrassment. I saw the girl when you hit the
table. Her face was full of disgust, and was pale. Oh yeah, it was one of the
biggest reason why you failed to be friendlier with her.
After graduation, you exercised a lot, and
I remember you became a soccer player of your middle school once, and became
one of the excellent runners of the school. Sure, only in 1st grade.
You haven’t played any sports since 2nd grade. Anyway, somehow I bet
the trauma of 6th grade helped you to think about your body, and
made you to keep your health.
Well, though you lost a chance to become
friendlier with her or keep contacting with her, at least you got a health. Let’s
be thankful to it.
Very good story - and again we can see the You narrative really working to bring a story to life. If this were "I" I don't think we'd have the same degree of depth. So - very good content! It's funny, honest, good glow, and you make it very easy to imagine.

I liked the theme and how you focused really well. You eventually overcame the trauma and used it for you, and it is expressed very well. The problem is grammar. There are glaring mistakes quite frequently: one in a few sentences. There are some minor diction errors too. You tend to be so informal it is rather noticeably distracting, like the use of 'so's. Although through context I could get the crux of your essays, the sentence themselves were sometimes unclear, unnecessary, or unexplained. But if you just make changes to the grammar, I think it will be a great essay.
