Blinded Sight

§ forty-six §

Cheers were erupting

from the many students in the hall

when she entered the school

the following week.

"This is for hurting her!"

a familiar voice yelled,

followed by the sound of a punch.

More cheers erupted

from the crowd.

"This is for trying to rape her!"

Another punch. More cheers.

She went towards the crowd.

She saw him then.

He looked like he was about to kill.

She then looked at you, all beat up

and completely

helpless

on the floor,

with blood running down your nose,

a black eye

and a busted lip.

She stood and watched.

Soon enough, his friends came

and pulled him away from you.

[ You got lucky. ]

He was still glaring at you

as his friends pulled him away

from you.

His eyes landed on her, and

his deathly look softened.

She smiled at him.

He smiled back before storming off.
