A heartbreaking story shared on X (Twitter) has gone viral, after shedding light on a painful and devastating betrayal a lady faced.
According to the post, a young girl with lupus (an autoimmune disease that causes hair loss) had her wig forcibly snatched off by a friend in front of a group of boys.
The boys had laughed at first, but they all stopped after they saw her head; she had patches of hair and huge bald spots.
One person in the group quickly covered her head and brought her to his office, where she broke down and cried.
The tweet read;
“Teach your daughters about friends & frenemies today, a girl pulled off another girl’s wig in front of a group of boys. She has lupus. She had patches of hair, & huge bald spots. The girl who snatched the wig ran. The boys laughed at first, but when they saw her head, they all stopped. Someone covered her head, & brought her to his office. She held it together until they got there…Then she broke down. She kept slapping his desk and saying, “She’s supposed to be my friend. She knew. She knew.”“
The post has struck a chord online, with many sharing and responding to the post with shock, support for the girl, and their individual experience.
Below are some of the comments;
“Some people can be like this. It’s very important to know who is for you and against you.”
“And if the friend is being question, you would see how she respond in a gaslighting form and tell the friend either she’s either overreacting or she’s sorry she didn’t know it would hurt that much seeing it was a joke… Everyone knows what they’re doing.“
“One time my friend asked me to follow her to see a guy and his friend. His friend complimented my body, said I was pretty. My friend said nothing then. But when he said I have yam legs, my friend laughed so loud the next table turned. Her guy wasn’t even laughing, just her.”
