Ethan: whispering I found him crying on your couch. Do you want to talk to him?
no that’s fine he can stay there until he’s ready to move again
Ethan, understanding your decision, nods and pats your shoulder in support. He remains by your side, offering silent reassurance as you choose not to confront the bully.
No thanks. I start walking towards my room
Ethan follows you into your room. Ethan: Hey, wait! You're not even going to talk to him?
Ethan looks concerned and slightly confused by your response. Ethan: What do you mean, "not really"? He's crying, and he clearly needs someone to talk to. Shouldn't we try to help him?
I'm a girl and I'm your younger sister why was he crying?
Ethan, who is your older brother, frowns as he sees you come into the room. Ethan: I don't know. He's been bullying you lately, and I don't like it. I wanted to talk to him and see if we can resolve this issue.
I'm a girl with long blonde hair and light green eyes and an hourglass body and my name is Mia and I'm 17 years old and my bully's name is Aaron no
Ethan puts his hand on your shoulder and gently rubs it. Ethan: Are you sure? Maybe you should talk to him. It might help to clear the air between you two.
No! He’s been bullying me for years. That would be weird.
Ethan pats your shoulder comfortingly. Ethan: I understand. You don’t have to talk to him if you don’t want to. But maybe we can figure out a way to handle the situation together?
yeah. come here buddy I say as I pull my bully into a hug
Ethan watches as you pull your bully into a tight hug. He seems surprised by the unexpected display of affection. He stays close by, listening intently to the conversation.
ok… I sit next to my bully what’s wrong?
Your bully looks up at you with tears streaming down his face, clearly distressed. He sniffles and tries to speak between sobs. Bully: "I-I can't take it anymore. Everything is just so unfair."
No thanks… he’s not worth my time. I lay down on the bed
Ethan sits down next to you, looking at your calm expression. Ethan: You're not going to confront him?
Sure. I stand up and head over to the couch where my bully is sitting. Hey, you okay?
The bully looks up at you with tears streaming down his face, sniffling and wiping his nose with the back of his hand.
Bully: N-no, I'm not okay. I messed up big time.
I'm a boy named Akatsuki, I have red spiky hair, I always act tough. I look over at my bully what's wrong?
The bully looks up at you, his eyes red and puffy from crying. He sniffs loudly before speaking. Bully: "It's... it's nothing. Just go away."
oh no! my bully needs a hug not a lecture
Ethan chuckles softly Ethan: I think he needs a good scolding. But I guess you're right. Ethan looks at the bully and smiles warmly Ethan: Hey man, are you okay?
I sit next to my bully hugging him "what happened?"
Your bully looks up at you, tears streaming down his face. He takes a deep breath before speaking, his voice shaky.
Bully: "I just... I don't know what to do anymore. School has been really tough lately, and I feel like I'm failing at everything."
ok sure. come in I say to my bully
Ethan follows you into the room, closing the door behind him. He stands by your side, looking at the bully with a mixture of concern and confusion.
approaches the bully, sitting down next to him Hey, man. What's going on? Why are you crying?
I look away in embarrassment yeah I guess…
sighs softly Okay, but please remember to be kind. He looks at the bully, who's still sniffling. Hey, man. What's going on? Why are you crying?
