   Sean had to return to school today. He felt a little better, still feeling his stomach a bit messed up.

   Sean took a shower and puts on a grey t-shirt and camo pants, putting on his green retro Jordan's.

  "Ma." He shook Rebecca for her to get up. It took a while but she eventually got up.

  "Yes sweetie?"

  "Don't do nothing while I'm gone. Just watch tv Ma. Okay?" Sean plead. He was tired of Rebecca passing out on a daily routine.

"Okay honey." Sean nods and leaves the house and locks the door. He tucks the key in his pocket and walks to school. The bus doesn't come to her neighborhood. Not after the past experiences. One time, there was a bomb set off near the bus stop and the bus exploded along with that building. Causing 8 children with injuries and the rest dead.

    "Aye man, have I told you what that damn Loser did to me?" Trevy asks, catching up to Sean.

   "What she do?"

   "I told her that there are two mistakes her mama made and herself. One about her mama giving birth to her and her not killing herself," Trevy chuckles,"she punched me in my nose and knocked me to the damn floor, attacking me man!" Sean tried his best not laugh. Not at Cheyenne, at Trevy.

"Man, you can't say that to nobody's mama! You know you would kicks her ass to outer space of she that to you?" Trevy thought about it and agreed. Though Trevy and Sean hated Cheyenne the knew talking about someone else's mother isn't right. "Guess what this dumb ass nigga did yesterday?"

"What?"

"She coming to Malcom right? She she come to ask me why I'm such a bitch! I put her ass out!" Trevy laughed his head off.

   "She came without a weapon?" Trevy asked, still laughing.

   "Of course this nigga didn't come witout a gun! She dumb as hell!" Trevy laughed even harder. The two crossed the street and took a right onto Corners Drive. A few cars were passing by, but not as much.

    "Do you like her?" Trevy popped up a question Sean didn't know how to answer. "I mean like a love her way?" Sean chuckles and looks at the sky.

   "Fuck no! With her ugly ass braces and that metal shit? If she that last person on earth, I still wouldn't even like her damn face!" Trevy looked at Sean.

    "Man, admit it. Think. Form a picture of her." Sean did. All he saw was the nerdy girl he bullies at school. "Take off her glasses and remove her braces. Nah what chu see?" Sean still saw who he bullied.

   "I see the same ugly ass girl." Trevy laughed.

   "Man, your mind is fucked up! She looks hot man! I thought about it yesterday!" Sean looks at Trevy surprised.

   "Your mind is fucked up man! You talking bout she look hot!-fuck that bullshit!" Trevy chuckles.

   "What was I thinking anyway. Behind that stuff, she still the nerdy, worthless ass girl, right?"

   "Hell yeah! She ain't nothing but that." Sean agrees. Sean always found a way for people to get on his side. He disliked that girl.

  "But remember how many boys liked her in 3rd grade man? I mean, I even liked her ass!"

   "That was like ten years ago, she looks like shit nah!" Sean playfully nudged Trevy in the arm.

    "You know what?-I think I might've gotten drunk at that party yesterday. Something is goin on." Trevy rubs his temples and takes a deep breath.

    Trevy and Sean walked inside the school, seeing nothing but gossip. Or at least flashing cameras and a big crowd. They pushed their way through and saw two girls fighting on the floor.

     Cassie and Diana. Diana was obviously winning the fight. She always wins fights.

    "Damn, Diana the shit when it comes to fighting." Sean said.

   "Not all the time, that nerdy girl kicked her ass at lunch yesterday. We put the shit on video man, have you even went on Instagram at all?" Trevy said as they pushed their way through the crowd. Diana hair was messed up and her shirt was ripped. Sadly, Cassie's face was beat and bruised on the cheek.

     The security guards didn't come, so eventually Trevy and Sean pulled them away.

    "Leave my fucking friend alone!! She's been through enough already!" Cassie let a tear stream down her cheeks. "All of you! Leave her alone! She has done nothing but come to school and make friends, nothing! All you fools are hurting her!!" Cassie had enough. She was tired of seeing her best friend miserable. "Diana, stop being such a fucking liar. What she did to you yesterday in cafeteria was completely right! You need to be kicked! All of you!!" Cassie wipes the hit tears. She was angered, hurt and worried. "You wouldn't like it if you were kicked and thrown to the floor and teased would you? So why do it to her?" Sean didn't even listen. He didn't care if she was hurt, or miserable, or anything. He didn't even show an inch of quilt. This shows that he is heartless, and he could care less about Cheyenne.

   "Because she made a mistake," Sean stepped in, picking up the question. Cassie grits her teeth and waits for an answer," for not committing suicide yet." The halls burst of laughter. Usually Trevy would roast but it was Sean this time, and this one was better than Trevys.

   "All of you," Cassie said,"better start putting your game up, because I guarantee  you will all go to hell!" No one laughed, or smiled or even held back a chuckle. Diana's mouth dropped, not hurt, not even caring. In fact the whole hall didn't care what Cassie said.

    "It ain't our fault for bringing her alive, it's the mama! We won't go to hell. Shit, she was all just a mistake. She ain't no Jesus's shepherd, she's the Devils fucking slave. She will always be that, till the day she dies. You will figure out that you have a friend that is nothing but shit. Shit, I don't give a fuck if she do suicide. It's just more off our shoulders." Sean finished, proud of what he said. No one was clapping, or couraging him. They had their eyes someone else:

      Cheyenne heard every detail. From beginning to end.

    Cheyenne felt a tear fall down her cheek. It wasn't hot or cold. It was unusual tears, tears she has never felt before. Tears she that was full with rage, hurt, and sorrow.

    Cassie walked toward her. Cassie felt tears down her eyes, she was crying for Cheyenne and Cheyenne only. Sean and the rest of the school smiled, glad she heard everything.

    Cheyenne and Cassie walked off. They went to the nurse to get Cassie some treatment on her face.

   "I hate this school Cassie!" They were in the bathroom, and Cassie was comforting her as much as she could.

    Cassie knew what Cheyenne was thinking. Cheyenne going to cut herself more.

     Cassie has to make everything stop.
