As I stir in bed instead of dreams a flush of memories come to me.

"I want it!" Dona the bully says pushing my chest.

I clung my Barbie close.

I must have was 4 or 5 and I was still in daycare.

I don't know why the teachers don't say anything.

"No!" I say tears running down my cheeks.

Dona comes at me throwing me down and pulling my hair until I surrender my Barbie.

I'm on the floor crying when a girl in a green shirt full of noodles looks at me. She heads towards me helping me up.

She's the only blonde in the class.

"Noodle girl?" I say facing her.

She winced then nodded.

"That doll" She says her voice is so cute in perfect English.

"Is it yours?" She fiddled with her fingers.

"Yeah I mean yes." I say, wanting to sound like her.

I looked over at Dona who closed her hand over my doll, her friends nodded and laughed encouraging her.

Before I could yell and before she broke my dolls head off.

Noodle girl attacked her and got my doll back.

She gave it to me and walked off to the teachers who were calling her angrily.

I feel flushed as I limp home. I see Sam in front of me walking alone. Usually I would walk with her but we had a fight. And the worst thing is that today Dona and her friends beat me up. Sam who has one ear bud in her ear is walking slowly and carefully I can just imagine her sleepy blue eyes looking forward.

My head hurts and my arms hurt from being punched. I feel blood start to flow down my nose.

I moan as I touch my beaten up face. Noodle suddenly turns her eyes shocked. I look at her and trip I try to get up but my arms hurt so much I can't. Noodle runs towards me she helps me up.

"What happened to you?"

Instead of answering I lean on her shoulder.

"I've got you Lyle. I've got you..." She says as tears spring out of my eyes.
