               themselves well? Because they just repeat what’s on


               the  newspaper! You should follow their example.



               That’s very easy. I regret having publicized our


               relationship! I regret having told my friend you are



               my lover! But  it’s  too late  now to regret it!


               Newspapers  are everywhere. But you  never read



               them. That’s why you have made a poor show at the


               meetings. Read them carefully and you’ll know what



               to say. Just say what the newspaper says! Even a fool



               knows how to make a speech at meetings! You are


               more foolish than a fool! I hate you!” With that, she


               turned and walked away angrily.



                       Later I learned that she had several friends in my



               school. They were  her “fans”. They admired her.


               They were proud of themselves for being her friends.



               They loved to keep in touch with her. They often had


               happy get-togethers. So there was  no  secrecy



               amongst them.
