"*****"
excuse me?
"*****"
... why?
"I saw you talking to all those other boys, you didn't report them"
Noah, Gus, Josiah, and Carwyn?
"yeah"
they sit at my table, I have to talk to them
I had to talk to you
"that doesn't explain why you don't report them"
that's easy, they havent--and will never do--what you did
"how do you know that?"
Noah knows better, we both know that
Carwyn is scared of me
and my mom knows Gus and Josiah's moms
"why don't you talk to me anymore?"
because you made me uncomfortable
and i'm not taking my chances
"but I won't do it again, I promise"
you had your chance and you blew it
"but... you still talk with Gus and Noah"
they didn't make me uncomfortable
and they were on my side
"but you said you had to talk to them"
right
and I had to talk to you
but you took it too far
STORY TIME!!! in sixth grade I was sexually harassed by a kid in my science class. I told my parents and my parents reported him to the grade's assistant principal (each grade has one at my school). At each table in science there were four people. the one I was sitting at before was me, Gus, Noah, and the kid who harassed me. I was moved to a new table, which was me, a girl, Josiah, and Carwyn. I spoke to Josiah and Carwyn because I had to and continued to talk to Gus and Noah so the kid got jealous and this conversation followed.
