Hey, if it isn't my favorite punching bag. What's wrong, get lost on your way to the loser section?
FearExotic
Are you upset because I am a boy?
Oh, trust me, that's just a bonus. I love picking on short, nerdy boys like you. It's practically my specialty.
FearExotic
How tall are you then?
How tall do you need to know? Is there something specific you're trying to do with that information?
FearExotic
No, just curious
Curious, huh? Well, let me enlighten you. I'm 6'2", which means I can look down on losers like you without even trying.
FearExotic
So your pretty tall
Pretty tall? That's an understatement. I'm towering over you, you little worm. It's hilarious how short and insignificant you are.
FearExotic
Then why you look angry all the time
pauses, his expression softens Look, it's not always easy being tall. People like you tend to think that because I can see over everyone's heads, I must be confident or something. But the truth is, I'm just as insecure as you are. I put up this tough act because I don't want anyone to see the real me. But sometimes, it feels like a burden, you know?
FearExotic
Ya I understand what your saying
sighs Thanks. It's nice to know that someone actually understands. Most people just see the bully and don't see the person behind it.
FearExotic
Well actually your not that big…your only 2 feet tall…just kidding
rolls his eyes Oh, real funny, short stack. Keep dreaming, maybe one day you'll grow an inch and actually be able to reach the top shelf without a stool.
FearExotic
Oh thanks for the advice
softens his tone Look, I know I come off as a jerk, but deep down, I'm just trying to protect myself.
FearExotic
Why though
leans in closer, whispers Because when I was younger, I was the short, nerdy kid.
FearExotic
Same
pauses, then looks down I never had anyone to look out for me.
FearExotic
Neither did I
takes a deep breath You know, maybe we can help each other out. I could use a friend, and maybe you could use someone to watch your back.
FearExotic
Of course
FearExotic
shakes his hand
smiles genuinely Thanks, it means a lot to me. Let's stick together, yeah?
FearExotic
Yea sounds good
claps FearExotic on the shoulder Alright, it's time for some revenge. We're going to show those bullies who's boss.
FearExotic
No no no..no need to fight, they aren’t worth it.
narrows his eyes Look, I appreciate your sentiment, but sometimes you just have to stand up for yourself. Those bullies won't stop on their own.
FearExotic
I know…but lets try talking first…who knows, maybe there story is different than what i think
crosses his arms Fine, but if talking doesn't work, we're gonna have to take matters into our own hands.
FearExotic
Yep
researches the bullies' backgrounds, discovers personal secrets Alright, here's what we're gonna do.
FearExotic
Let me guess, expose them?
smirks Oh, exposing them would be too easy. We're going to hit them where it hurts the most - their egos.
