It's the first day of class and others said we are the best it is a plus to have the best. we are all seated on a white chair.

8:00 am, he came in and raised a 1/4 paper;

All of them jumped in, raised their hand, me, me, me! pick me I know the answer! he calmed them down, one at a time;

so they did;

Liam: Apple

Martin: Manzana

Léo: Pomme

Paul: Apfel

Leonardo: Mela

Alexander: Яблоко

Mohammed: تفاحة

Haruto: りんご

Seo-jun: 사과

Wei: 苹果

Moïse: Pòm

Hùng: Táo

Aarav: Seb

Aarav: Ābala

Rizki: Apel

Elias: Omena

Antoni: Jabłko

Andrei: Măr

Santiago: Manzana

Juan: Mansanas

"Good! You are all correct!"

They all jumped believing they did a good job.

They all answered, but he didn't ask me. He never did.

"I don't need your opinion," he said.

It's a paper. It's a paper with some writings on it. Anyone can write anything on it but it's still a paper.

What am I doing here?
