Once when I was ten my sister was flirting with some teenage boys and I went up to them to give me a piece of my mind ! Well one of them bent down and cocked his head. With a sweet but annoying voice he asks "hello, how old are you?" Well being myself I just glared at him and looked at my sister. I then sassily stated, "why don't you take a guess!" Then he came at me with this-"how old are you?, 6? 7?" My sister started laughing. I was literally about to cry. As I was walking away I heard my sister telling him that I was actually ten and really short for my age. That's just one more sad but hilarious story of shortness!
