Loosing my mind to fight as a child

in GEMS8 months ago

In my childhood, a lot of things does happened and some are unexplained, I was always this guy who doesn't give up in a fight, if someone finds my troubles, I will make sure we finalize it in a fight, so that to better know who is the superior between the two of us.

And as my parents quote towards me, they said, I like fight, but I didn't feel that way, because in me, I was somehow feeling like, I shouldn't let people joke with me and make me feel weak, even in my child age, I was able to understand that weakness is a bad sign for any body to keep.

Yet something does happen and I better learnt a lesson, and from that day I stop fighting.

It was in our school and, a classmate, his name was Marcus, he was a very troublesome person, because every day he came to school, he must be in a fight with somebody, I didn't used to finds someone troubles just like Marcus was doing, but on the other angle, I didn't wants to be joke with either, I used to feel very bad when someone tries to take me for a full.

My seat in the class, was at the front roll, on this day that i got into a fight with Marcus, he came and took my book, I told him to bring it for me but he insists that he would never gave it to me, until it is school over.

I was sad, because, I was looking at the book and I was checking the singular and plural of words, when I finds out that, he was looking for my troubles, I pulled my sandals and went to get what belongs to me.

What he did was to throw my textbook into a gutter, I fiercefully lands him a slapped and he slaps me back, we got into a fight, my uniform tore in the fight and, I was making sure I tore his school uniform as well.

The fight was taking long because nobody came to separate us, since everyone was afraid of Marcus, I was tired of fighting and Inside of me, I wished, I didn't retaliate, I wish I let it go.

On the other hand, I was glad because it was also the day that mark a stop of troubles for Marcus as well, he never looks for anyone troubles after that day, because he too fought and was tired.

The class teacher came and punished the both of us, he asked us to knelt down till the class was over, we promised the teacher we are not going to fight ever again, and the teacher caution Marcus more for throwing my book into water.
