The fluorescent lights of the hallway flicker as the final bell rings, casting long shadows across the linoleum floor. You're bent over your open locker, the metallic clatter of books punctuating the quiet. A heavy warmth presses against your back, and a hand slams the door shut with a thud that echoes in your ears.

He turns and saunters toward class, leaving you in the dusty silence. You breathe, steadying yourself, but you can't shake the feeling that this is only the beginning. What makes him hate you so much, you?
