: Alex's point of view :
I look over and see some of the mean kids walking over to me. I look towards me and see Kana in the car. I start panicking as they walk closer. I call my mom telling her to pick me up.
"Calling mommy?" One of them say and I look down, I get up and start walking away
"I was talking to you" he says and grabs my shirt and pulls me back
"Just leave me alone." I say walking down the stairs.
"Wimp" another says and pushes me. I fall onto the ground and they start laughing and whispering into each other's ears. They all nod
"Guys seriously leave me alone" I say getting onto my knees to get up... One of them kick me in the back and they all start kicking me once I'm on the ground... I start crying... They're calling me names and hitting me... They back off and I get up and start walking away till one of them grabs the hood of my shoulder and turns me around, they start taking pictures and videos... One of them grabs onto my shoulders and knee me in the stomach... I cover my face and cry more... I go to get up but he grabs the back of my head and knees me in the face....
"Kill yourself you trans piece of shit" one says and the laugh and walk away... I lay there covering my face crying... I hear a car, I try and wipe the blood off my face....
"Alex?!" I hear Jeydon say, what happened?! I was sitting at home when I felt a bunch of pain" he says and grabs onto my shoulder
"I can't" I cry and he helps me up
"You can't what?" He says confusedly
"I'm tired of getting bullied! Nobody fucking cares!!! Nobody helps!!! Once gotten beaten up since school started!!!" I say
"Why didn't you tell me?!" He says
"Because no one understands!!!" I say and he hugs me
"If anyone would understand you it would be me... I'm your twin brother... I'd literally do anything to keep you safe.." He says and helps me into the car, he closes the door and he gets in and starts driving home
"Mom and dad can't know" I say and he gives me a concerned look
"But the-" he says but I interrupt him
"They can't know!" I say and he nods we pull up to the house
"Wear this" he says and takes off his sweatshirt, I nod and put it on. I grab my bag and we walk inside... I look around the house and see Fynn's gone...
"Where's Fynn?!" I say looking around
"He had to leave earlier... His mom made him... I'm sorry" mom says and I nod, I go into my room and close the door... I change into sweatpants and lay on the bed but here a paper crumpling under me, I look and see it's a letter from Fynn, I read it and smile, it says how much he loves me and that one day we'll be together and we'll see each other again soon. I grab tape and tape the letter next to the pictures of me and him on the wall, I ignore what happened today and roll over and close my eyes
