Liliana

The first incident that I can think of this happening was I was in kindergarten.

Oh, actually about kindergarten.

I started kindergarten at four years old.

I think my parents put me in kindergarten way too early.

They told me that it was because I was smart.

But now that I'm older, I think they just wanted me, you know, out of the house sooner.

Because when I think about my time in kindergarten, I was not sentient.

Like I remember other kids doing letters in writing and I was still scribbling.

I could not understand.

And the reason I got a reputation as a liar was there was this day where I was playing in the gym and

And I bumped into this other kid.

His shoulder hit me like right in the nose and my nose just blood everywhere all over the floor.

So I had to go to the nurse and I'm sitting there and she's talking about me not being sentient.

She said, when the big hand on the clock is on the four, then you can go back to your classroom.

And I sat there for I don't even know how long and she came back and she was like, you were supposed to go when the hand is on the four.

I don't know what a four is like.

So yeah, it was just really difficult.

But

everybody kept asking me who was the boy that hit me in the nose like that and in my four-year-old brain I only knew one kid's name and in my brain everybody had that name so I was like it was this kid I said I said this kid's name it was this other girl and she and I she and I I think we're friends which is why I even knew her name but I was like oh it was just this girl and obviously not true

And I think that the teacher told my parents and then my parents were like, oh my gosh, you're such a liar.
