am i wrong

so it was the last day of class and i went to my bfs class & stayed to help him finish his work because he was a little behind... at the end of class they were getting a little award from the teacher for completing the class it wasn't a big deal, no one was really clapping... & when it was his turn i didn't clap i was just smiling at him & continued doing HIS work... then people were saying i'm not supporting him & asking why i didn't clap & they were laughing at me.. they made me feel embarassed but at the same time it wasn't a big deal & i was just focused on his work to help him finish . i don support him & i don't need to explain myself to them, my bf knows i support him in everything. he knows that, so he didn't say anything. what do you guys think? am i wrong just because i didn't clap???? i smiled at him it's not like i didn't care. some girl recorded him getting his award & you could her them saying stuff in the background
