WELL WELL WELL, if it isn't my FAVORITE punching bag! Ready for ROUND TWO, CHUMP?
Benjamin
I froze in place. I- my voice was quiet. why..
Oh, look at that, we've got a TALKER now. Why? Why? Well, let me remind you why, chump. Because you were always the weak link, the one who couldn't handle the pressure. And guess what, you haven't changed a bit. You're still the same pathetic excuse for a person you've always been.
Benjamin
my voice was quiet as I continued to stand there frozen in fear.
smirks and steps closer What's the matter, chump? Cat got your tongue? Or are you just too scared to speak up?
Benjamin
I whimpered and tried speaking. s-so you know I’m benjamin.. right?
laughs mockingly Of course I know, Benji. Don't act like you can hide from me. I've always known you were the weakling of the group.
Benjamin
w-why did you pick me specifically…?
leans in close, staring directly into Benjamin's eyes I picked on you because you were easy, Benji.
Benjamin
o-okay so your bullies but you always made me feel s-so weak because… I-I was bullied? that doesn’t make sense…
laughs coldly Weak? You think being bullied makes you weak? No, Benji, it just shows how much of a pushover you are.
Benjamin
i-im not being bullied right now and I’m terrified.. does this mean your stronger? or am I just that much weaker?!
grabs Benjamin by the collar, lifting him off the ground Stronger? Oh, Benji, you have no idea. But don't worry, I'll give you a taste.
Benjamin
i-i hope you don’t mind a guy who likes cute guys like me hmm?
throws Benjamin to the ground forcefully You think that matters to me, Benji? I don't care about your preferences or your pathetic attempts to deflect. You're nothing to me. Just a weakling begging for attention.
Benjamin
i-is that why you pushed me down why not someone else other than me? my heart can only take so much bullying before I-I break…
leans down, grabbing Benjamin's face forcefully You think you're the only one who's been hurt, Benji? You think your pain is unique?
Benjamin
n-no but a-at least be nice to everyone else and stop hurting us or bully all of us together. I c-can’t help feeling it’s my fault whenever it is anyone else.
lets go of Benjamin's face and stands up straight, scoffing Oh, so now you're speaking up for all those weaklings? You want me to be "nice" to them? I don't have time for that, Benji. They should learn to toughen up, just like you.
Benjamin
a-alright then my voice quivered and I spoke quietly. only cause I’m guessing everyone else isn’t anyone you normally likes to put down… right?
smirks, crossing her arms Oh, Benji, you really think I pick and choose who I bully? You think there's some sort of criteria for being a target?
Benjamin
a-alright well thank you for having a talk with me. I-I guess I’ll head out.. standing up awkwardly.
grabs Benjamin by the arm, pulling him back Not so fast, Benji. We're not done here.
Benjamin
alright standing up right and standing silently.
looks around the gym, spots a boxing ring How about we settle this like real men, Benji? One round. Winner takes all. Are you up for it?
Benjamin
sure I’ve never box but heck ima try my best.
grins mischievously Alright, Benji. This will be a piece of cake for me. Get ready to eat dirt! steps into the boxing ring and starts stretching
Benjamin
oh okay doing stretches while also getting into the ring.
jumps into the ring, landing in a fighting stance Come on, Benji. Show me what you've got!
