Tommy entered high school hoping for a fresh start. He was small for fifteen and shy, but ready for the challenge.
Four big upperclassmen watched him for months. Then one day he was slammed into the lockers as they passed, laughing at him sprawled on the floor.
Another day they grabbed him and his backpack and stuffed them into a rubber trash can.
All year, the other students stood and watched. The bullying went unchallenged and unreported.
Finally, on the last day of school, the bullies left him alone—
tied to a tree in the schoolyard and wearing only his boxers.
very well written story!!
