Yes!

I was a very unpopular kid during elementary school considering I was new (arrived at second grade) and from the city. The kids there didn't like outsiders , especially “spoiled brats” like me, so I had to fight for my friends.

Luckily, there was another city kid who wasn't new, but still was the only one that would talk to me.

We hung out everyday and became extremely close until 5th grade rolled around.

The teacher assigned us seats and unlike every other year, my seat was next to another girl. Me and my best friend were very upset but decided to work it out and ask the teacher to change seats again after 3 months (the first quarter is when we would change seats again if stuff weren't working out right).

And so I waited. My best friend sat next the “queen bee” of our class and they became close. She promised me we would still sit together. I believed her.

Soon enough, it was November and I talked to the teacher. She agreed to us sitting together! I ran up to my best friend, who was talking to the girl she was sitting next to, and told her the news.

She got mad. She yelled at me and said that she hates me and would have never agreed to sit next to a spoiled kid like me. Her friend stepped up and told me to “fuck off”. I was crying, so shocked and betrayed.

For the next 2 months I was involved in talks with the teacher and my friend to “clear things up”. Our teacher blamed me and made me look stupid for believing she would keep her promise.

My mother was upset with everything because she knew how two-faced everyone involved were. And then, I decided, that I would get my revenge.

For the rest of the year, I became someone else. All with only one intention; to befriend the queen bee.

I found out the things she likes, talked like her, and made great friends with her towards the end of the year.

One day, she asked the teacher to sit next to me. And she moved next to me. And my ex best friend came over to us and started to talk to me. I looked over at my new friend and she whispered to me “don't let her sit here.” And that's when I knew I can rest.

As for our friendship, it carried on successfully and I was one of the most popular girls in school until 7th grade, when I went to middle school.

get it; my ex best friend had no friends at our middle school. I ignored her.

Fast forward to today, I'm in 9th grade and she's completing last year’s studies at a special facility since she was gone for most of the year. I'm still best friends with the queen bee and very popular.

I still think about it sometimes. It makes me smile. Revenge really is sweet!
