Hi, I'm Will. And here are some things I hoped wouldn't happen in my life. My father would leave my mother. I would be taken out of private education and be forced to go to a normal school, where the school nutter would then take a bit of a dislike to me. But they do say "whatever doesn't kill you makes you stronger"...except polio. And it's not been all bad. This is the story of how I made new friends. Like him, and him, and him. Him not so much. And definitely her. But back to the present. To put you in picture, it's my first day, I have no friends, and I'm in the headmasters office for a welcome chat with the rest of the new kids. Or as they're otherwise known, the freaks. Yep, everyone's gonna think I'm one of them. And in a well-meaning but disastrous move, I've got to wear a massive green badge. At least I could discuss if with my head of sixth, Mr Gilbert. He seemed like an intelligent man.
