After the "whispering" incident, Charlie became more and more withdrawn.
Until one day, the transfer student Anya arrived.
Charlie didn't care much at first, but on the day Anya arrived, he was somewhat surprised to see Anya had injuries, with some bruises on her face.
Anya and Charlie didn't sit together, but they were both in the last row.
Anya seemed like another Charlie in this class, often bullied and mocked by some classmates.
The reason was Anya, as a girl, had short hair like a boy, and the bruises on her face, which led to rumors that Anya had a mental illness.
There were even rumors saying Anya injured her own mother, and Anya's parents were criminals.
In short, Anya, the transfer student, was not liked.
Their real connection emerged from an art activity where the school required every student to draw a picture and displayed all the students' drawings.
Charlie's drawing was filled with countless swirls.
