86 students from the age of 3 to 6 years old.
...
Every morning, most of them cried when they reached to school.
I tried to reach my hands out, but they ignored and pushed me away many times as they wanted.
I didn't give up at all.
I stood there and watched them cry.
When they had enough of it and finally put their guard down, again, I reached my hands out to them and said
"Come here and hug me. It's okay to cry sometimes. I'm here. Everything's going to be okay."
At the end of the day, they ran to me, hugged me and cried as much as they wanted
because they needed someone to reach them out
while they were struggling to put out words into sentences
and to tell us what they wanted all this time.

"Hari terakhir di sekolah.
Ada yang menangis teruk, tidak mahu balik dan berkeras hati mahu aku ikut balik sekali.
Ada yang boleh terima hakikat.Ada yang menahan ego.
Ada yang menangis, bila aku dukung, lantas dia memelukku dan tertidur dalam dakapanku."
...
Honestly, they changed me and I'm grateful of that.
When they had enough of it and finally put their guard down, again, I reached my hands out to them and said
"Come here and hug me. It's okay to cry sometimes. I'm here. Everything's going to be okay."
