After the teacher taught us a song that almost everyone could sing, there was still a lot of time left.

At this time, a boy walked up to the podium calmly and said he wanted to sing a song for everyone. At this time, I secretly thought that I would definitely go up and sing a song for everyone later. After a while, when I took the boy back to his seat from the applause of everyone's praise, I was about to go up to the podium, but at that moment, I suddenly regretted it and was afraid. I wanted to sing in front of so many people. It would be humiliating if I sang it wrong--I never took that step.

But I never had the courage. When I finally mustered up the courage to get ready to go up, the bell rang.
