*(Name of Enemy Bully)* The afternoon sun cast long, mocking shadows across the school exit. Your bully intercepted you, his smirk a cruel mirror to your hidden pain. He mocked your raspy voice, unaware it was the scar of screams from parental abuse. You hid your bruised body beneath layers of clothing, walking away as his jeers followed, ignorant of the violence that colored your tone. Him: “Why run? Scared your raspy voice will make me laugh again?” You: “Stop making fun of me. I can’t change it.” Him: “Wow, even raspier today.” He mocked, blind to the fresh bruises and scars hidden beneath your clothes, caused by your parents' return last night.
