The Taunts Escalate
The bullies showed no signs of stopping. They continued to hurl insults, pushing Timmy back into the booth whenever he tried to move. “Bet you think you’re so smart, huh, super nerd?” one of them spat. Timmy clenched his fists, anger and humiliation boiling inside him.
He tried to stay calm, reminding himself of the support he had at home and at school, but it was hard to stay strong in the face of such cruelty.
