Little Oneshots

Apology

I stood there, crying.

"Not so tough huh, little Nami?" A boy giggled.

"You're so weak, that it's pathetic!" A girl mocked.

Bruises covered my body. They punched and kicked me, but I refused to fight back.

'Nami, you shouldn't hurt people. Nami, everyone feels pain. So, Nami, don't get into fights, and keep smiling.'

"Weakling! You can't even fight back!" A girl scoffed.

I raised my head, forcing a smile.

"That's because I don't feel a thing! I'm alright! I'm not hurting!" I grinned, my eyes desperately hiding the pain behind them.

"Idiot." The girl punched me in the face.

"You don't deserve to smile. Afterall, didn't you kill your mother?"

~~

"Have you been fighting again?" My father scolded me.

"I wasn't." I stated.

He slapped me, sending me sprawling on the ground.

"Don't lie!"

I blankly stared at him.

"I'm not lying."

~~

I...didn't keep my promise.

"Heh, you're pathetic." A boy scoffed at me.

Growling, I launched at him, kicking, punching, letting all of my frustrations out.

I've grown, and I just can't stand being bullied anymore.

"Look at her go." My gangmate, Aki, commented to one of our subordinates.

I wiped my sweat, walking away from the bruised and bloodied body.

"Let's go."

I'm sorry, Mom. But I can't take it anymore. I can't just stand there and smile and say that I'm okay.

I'm sorry.
