what's a school rumor you heard as a kid

that turned out to be true years later

the most popular boy in Middle School

disappeared after seventh grade

literally his parents sold their house

and moved to a new house nearby but

pretty secluded he enrolled in a really

expensive private school and cut off all

ties with his friends at the same time a

really popular male social studies

teacher went on leave rumors circulated

that the boy was touched by the teacher

and that's why they were both gone the

other popular kids got really pissed

when people said that because they

really liked the teacher and the kid

eventually people stopped talking about

it fast forward to senior year in high

school he shows up at our prom as the

date of his fifth grade girlfriend first

time anyone had seen him in years

apparently he reached out to the girl to

ask if she had a date because he wanted

to see all his old friends One Last Time

apparently he was touched by the teacher

during tutoring sessions at the

teacher's home the school district and

his parents agreed to bury it in

exchange for tuition to the private

school he never wanted to leave and

really resented his parents for it by

the time prom rolled around he was 18

and they couldn't stop him he wanted to

set the story straight and let everyone

know he was sorry for just disappearing
