Today was supposed to be a day like any other, go to school, sleep in the class untill school hour, go home and use mobile till night, sleep, wake up tomorrow to repeat everything again but he found a letter laying in his desk.
A letter? He thought,could it be?, he quickly hid the letter in his pocket, looked around, he didn't want to spread rumors, nor did he wanted to that guy to know.
Even though from out side his face wore the same boring expression, on the inside he had a wide grint smile and was jumping and screaming,
________"hey where do you think you are going Ray" he heard from his back, It was a familiar voice, a voice he didn't want to hear, a voice he despised more then anything, his bullys voice
"What do you want"he asked wanting to get this over with quickly
"What i want?"jack said
Immediately Ray felt his abdomen engulfed in pain,he fell on the ground,grabbing his stomach,opening his mouth wide asking for air
"Why?"even though he already knew the answer he asked with a little bit strength he had
"You clearly knew what i wanted and yet dare to ask instead of giving me your money for this month"jack shouted grabbing his hair and putting him near jacks face,jack looked at Ray looking to see fear in him but was meet with a gaze filled with indifference, In his 16 year of lifetime he never saw someone with that expression with getting beaten
"That look,i really hate that you on your face you know"jack said punching and kicking Ray furiously.
Ray couldn't do anything else expect endure,in the past when he tried to consult the principal with his parent instead of punishing the bullys he accused me of bulling others instead he reasoned that i got all the injuries fighting with anyone
At first my parents were skeptical but they were also convinced that i was the bully when all my classmates supported the bully
After a while the hits began to slowdown ultill he stopped
"Tsk"he kicked Ray for the last time and he left with his friends or should i say his goons
Ray got up from the ground barely holding himself,his legs trembling,his hands filled with blue marks,he felt his weight doubled,slowly he left the class.
Students looked at him with eyes filled with pity yet he felt disgusted at them
"Wasn't they the one who blamed me,turned against me,made my parents lose faith in me,so why?why?show pity now,in my eyes you all are as guilty as those bullies",his heart tightening, fist trembling,he thought...
A few hours later
Ray now laying on his bed was giggling again and again as he read the letter
"Hey Ray ever since you came to our class i have always liked you,i like how you are indifference to what others has to say about you,i am a sensitive person so when others talked behind my it hurts, it makes my heart itchy, it makes me unable to make sleep,i wonder whey they say such a word,so i admire and like you so if you are reading this please meet me at the back of the school after the coaching class, i would like to confess about my sincere feelings to you in person"
While reading his heart felt light as if all the weight and shackle of the past was vanishing, he was trying hard not to jump and scream,he for the first time in his life felt true joy....
Next day
Unlike other days where he didn't want to wake up, Wanted to just lay down on the warm bed, relaxing, not caring the world,
He quickly got up from his bed, still with a wide grind, he quickly took a bath, brushed his tooth, got his hair done, made his breakfast, time to time he giggle looking at the letter, wore his school attire, and now he was ready to go,
