I once read a story. I believe it was from one of the Chicken Soup for the Soul's. Here's how it went.
One nerdy boy was walking home from school.
He drops his books or something.
A popular boy helps him.
They become friends.
At graduation, the nerdy boy makes his speech and thanks the popular kid because the nerdy kid was planning on commiting suicide the day that he met but he was cleaning out his locker so his mother didn't have to.
Could someone please tell me the issue and the name of the story?
