Abused, bullied and unloved

Three

School was fine, better than usual. I was leaving school when I saw Vincent. He was looking at me with a looked that said he was sorry. Like he was sorry that we lost touch and he was sorry for how my life is now. He started to walk towards me,I started to run. I couldn't face him right now. I ran until I reached a park. I sat under a tree. I started to cry. I hate how Calum started a rumour that I slept with 5 guys in the same week and I hate how him and his friends bully me. It ruined my friendship with my only friend, the only one who knew about my problem's at home. Vincent left me because he was to embarrassed to be my friend. I also hate how he is a bystander. He just watched me get bullied and did nothing. At one point he even joined in. I felt like I was betrayed.

I started to walk home, because it was getting dark. I started to walk when I saw 4 boys smoking. When I looked closer I saw that it was Calum, Luke, Michael and Ashton. I kept my head down, hoping they won't notice me."Hey, Monica". Shit."What do you want?" "Don't get sassy on me" said Ashton. He started to walk towards me. I started to run, not wanting a beating. Calum caught up to me first and grabbed my wrist. I winched in pain. He noticed and rolled up my selves. He looked up at me and pushed me to the ground. "Guys, let's leave her alone tonight. I am tried and we can beat her up tomorrow". I gave him a questioning look as his friends nodded and started to walk away. "Why didn't you beat me up?" I asked. "Why do you cut"he asked. " I don't want to answer that." I said. " Then I don't have to answer you", he then turned and ran to catch up to his friends. I stood there for a few seconds and then turned to walk back home. I tried to shake off the talk I had with Calum. But I kept on wondering why didn't he beat me up and why does he want to know why I cut?
