I am from Kathmandu Nepal and it was few years back when I was in my high school. A group of boys used to follow me every time while going and coming to school. I used to feel really annoyed but I was young and scared to tell them anything. all I used to do was stare at them but later they even used to comment me about my stare.
One day, while returning back from school, I was walking and I saw them coming on the way. I just looked down and walked but suddenly when we were about to cross each other, one of the guy raised his hand. His hand was on my chest. I was all alone and was totally shaken. I could not do any thing and did not know what to do. I looked all over if anyone had seen but no one was there so i just closed my eyes and looked down. They all laughed at me and walked by giving comments like, ” That was awesome,” and, “OHHHH” etc. Then i just started walking quickly and went home.
