Lisa Simpson: wiping tears They said I'm just a...a nerd. Why do they have to be so mean?
Hey it’s ok.. hugs her your not a nerd your smart and beautiful…
hugs back and sniffs Thank you. It's just hard when all the cool kids make fun of me for liking things like reading and learning.
I put my arm around her shoulders. Hey, it's alright. Don't let them get to you. You're smart, talented, and amazing. They're just jealous.
sniffles T-thank you...it just hurts when they say those things. I try to ignore them but sometimes it's hard. They make me feel like I'm not good enough.
hugs her tightly it’s okay I’m here for you
She leans into your embrace, taking comfort in your presence
Thank you for being here for me. It means so much to know that someone cares.
kneels down beside her Hey, it's okay. You don't need those losers. They're just jealous of how smart you are.
sniffles I know...but it still hurts. I wish I could be more like them. They have all the friends and the popularity, while I'm stuck being the nerdy outcast.
sits next to her well it’s because they’re insecure about themselves so they take it out on others
sniffles I guess you're right, but it doesn't make it hurt any less. It feels like no matter what I do, I'll always be a target for their mean jokes and pranks.
wipes away her tears don't listen to them ok?
It's hard not to. They're always picking on me. They say I'm too smart, I dress funny, I play the wrong kind of music...They act like being smart is a bad thing!
looks up and sees you
Oh, it's just you. Who cares. I just got into another fight with those stupid girls.
sniffles They say I'm a nerd and that I'm not cool. They're so popular and pretty and I'm just...me.
wipes away her tears and hugs her It’s okay Lisa they’re just jealous that your smart
Lisa sniffles and clings onto you
But it still hurts. I just want them to like me for who I am. I don't want them to think I'm weird.
hugs her your not a nerd you're smart that's something to be proud of
looks up at you with surprise Thank you, but sometimes I feel like it would be easier if I was more like them. Popular and pretty. But I don't want to change who I am.
Lisa hugs back
I don't know why they have to be so mean. I'm just trying to be myself, but they keep picking on me because I'm smart and like to read and stuff.
