Colleen gasped. I didn't know what to do. My cuts were now revealed.
"Mike... Is everything alright?" Colleen asked, and I knew I had explaining to do.
"Getting bullied by family and at school really hurt me. I began self harming, I was really depressed. I was hoping I could keep my scars hidden, but..." I stopped. I had to. It was too much pain to continue.
"Everything's gonna be alright here, Mike." Josh said.
"Are you guys mad at me?" I asked.
"No, of course not. We're not mad at you. We're mad at all the people who brought pain your way." He said. "Now c'mon, let's go to breakfast."
We got in the car, and Colleen asked, "Any songs you're into?" I thought for a second, and found the perfect answer.
"How about Runnin?" I said.
"Oh yeah!" Josh said. He turned it on, pumped it up, and we jammed out together. I was living in the best place imaginable.
We arrived at the breakfast place, and were seated. We had a really nice waitress, and we had a really nice time together. At the end of breakfast, I got up to go the bathroom, and on my way there, I ran into two kids from my old school. Not just any kids, but the two main bullies. I froze. I wasn't sure what was going to happen. The tall one of the kids looked me dead in the eyes, and pushed me.
"What's you gonna do now?" He asked. He grabbed my arm, throwing me to the ground, and began kicking me.
"Oh no, are you crying?" He asked, followed by a hard kick. I was now in horrible pain.
Suddenly, Josh and Colleen ran over.
"Hey, you!" Josh screamed at the kid. There was a police man having breakfast as well, and he ran over.
He grabbed the kids, and he was taken out.
"Are you okay?" Josh asked.
"Yeah, I guess." I replied.
I was taken back to my seat, and I rested for a moment. I was okay. I was safe.
After a little bit of rest time and making sure I was okay, we were off.
We got in the car and we had a good time. As we continued on the street, we were at a stoplight, and we went on our green light. As we went, another car came, and bashed into our side.
