Your Unstable Dose of G/t (fluff?)

Look Up

"That girl didn't deserve that..."

"What did you say?" I faked a smile as I shook my head, wishing that those words never reached her ears. "Anyways, us and the other girls are going to that bar again. Care to join?" I shook my head again, oblivious to the screeching girls that was shrieking there heads off. "Aww come on, I've told you this like, a thousand times. Our fake IDs worked perfectly! And you would wish that you'd had joined earlier when you taste their booze!" ... why do I keep up with this charade?

"Nahh, you know my dad. He's always nagging and threatening me with that fake police badge of his, but the worse thing is that he takes away my phone..." She shrugs her shoulders as she walks over to the other girls to talk to, leaving me a moment to catch my breath. I don't know how I got into this... I never wanted to be a bully... I just, wanted friends...

Walking through the hallway as footsteps echoed through the school, me and my 'friends' boycotted the class and left early to taste that famous booze that bar had. Nevertheless, I stopped myself before we got to the place; sometimes pretending that I had something important to do or just slip off from the group in plain sight. Of course, they'd ask for the reason why I disappeared and I would always give the same excuse: 'I got lost.'

They'd buy it and laugh at my stupidity before throwing it all off their head the next hour, and return to our usual past-time of bullying helpless girls. They'd jeer and throw punches and the target, then ask for their money before walking away from the victim with a unconscious tread of malice. The people in this entourage has done many hedious things, some of which I still can't comprehend... but maybe one of the things I'll never forget was how one of them ate a tiny. (I really argued with myself with that line, and again I do not ever tolerate bullying or voring tinies.)

See, our school was mixed; which meant us humans and the tinies had classes together and ate together. But under the sugarcoating of the school authorities, it was still a hellish place to be in for a tiny. Bullying occured regularly everyday, tinies begging for their lives as empty threats from students loomed over them and rarely will there ever be a case, but sadly, tinies have gotten killed 'accidentally'.

The school had, without a hitch, prepared for such situations. Regardless of how much the teachers claim how 'safe' the school was, not once had there ever been a tiny that never gotten taunted or even faced with death every, single, day. And here I am, a phony female. Begging for a conversation from anyone by any means, even if it meant playing along with hedious acts that should be considered crime the moment it happened. I tried to talk to some tinies, but no matter how much shorter or gentler I tried to become, they'd always have their faces painted with fear and everytime, I walk away understanding how much harder it was to be tiny; a life so easy to sniff out.

And so, as a last resort, I went to the hooligans. Proclaimed myself as an individual delinquent and walked through those hellish years laughing off every mistake I made, voluntarily. It's not like I never thought of leaving the group, I've already stuck my head too much into the jaws of a lion. Ever since then, I've been trying to find and excuse to excuse myself from the group and unsurprisingly? I failed.

My parents weren't much help, they never stayed at home for too long as they were all caught up in their daily grind of work. They'd come home at 1 in the morning and leave at the dusk of dawn, someimtes leaving behind a note to even ask how I was doing. No, they never cared, and never will care. Why? I'll never know... sigh... what am I doing with my life.... "Hey girls check it out!"

My ears perked up as I lifted my head from my tilted neck, dreading as to what atrocities they'll do this time.... no... "Hey tiny, haven't you heard of the... what's it called? 'Giant's only' Walkway?" The girl was clearly frozen in place, not moving at all while her eyes watered. "Aww... are you crying now? Hey, what say we give you a cold treat? Something that'll cheer you up." The girl stayed speechless and seemed as if she would die from fear. The leader of the group was ruthless, she never gave a damn about anything; not even killing tinies. "Then why don't I choose where to put you... does a fridge sound good?"
