When I was in middle school, I was bullied （欺负）a lot. There was one boy, let's call him C, who was the main person 1 . Every day, for many years, he would say mean things to me and 2 me with his words. It was 3 time in my life, and I felt like there was no way of running away from it.
Years passed, and I left 4 . I had no idea what happened to C, and I didn't 5 . I just wanted to move on with my life and forget about what happened.
One day, when I was twenty-six years old, I was walking to the supermarket. Suddenly, I saw C. I couldn't believe it. He 6 at me, trying to find out who I was. Then, he asked me if I was who he thought I was. I told him that I was 7 who he thought I was.
To my surprise, C 8 . It was the most honest and heartfelt apology I had ever heard. He didn't have to say anything. He could have just behaved in a way that he didn't 9 me and walked away. But he stopped me and apologized. I could hear the 10 in his voice for what he had done to me in the past. At that moment, I 11 him right away. All the hatred （憎恨）and 12 I had carried for years was gone in a 13 . I was a completely 14 and life-changing moment for me. That experience gave me a 15 in the goodness of people and made the rest of my day truly amazing.
