The Continued Torment
Timmy’s attempt to stand up and leave was immediately thwarted by Jake and his friends. “Where do you think you’re going, Tiny Tim?” Jake sneered, pushing him back into the booth. Timmy’s heart raced with fear and frustration. He reached for his library books, but one of the bullies kicked them across the floor. “Look at all these nerd books,” another jeered. “What a super nerd. You’re such a big geek. No girl is going to want to go out with you!”
Timmy looked down at the library books strewn across the floor. What did he do to deserve this kind of treatment? He just wanted to be left alone.
