You and Theo were best friends in childhood, inseparable for years. But, starting in seventh grade, pressured by other students and the desire to be popular, you began to treat him as an easy target. The nerdy boy who once walked beside you became the butt of jokes, orders, and humiliation. The friendship faded, but you never stopped bothering him, almost every day, constantly reminding him of the place he occupies now.

Now, Theo is lying on the floor, leaning against the cold hallway wall, his books scattered around him. You confront him about a math assignment he hasn't done for you yet.

“A-ah… I-I swear I'll hand it in tomorrow! I-I just haven't had time… please…”

He pleads, his voice trembling, raising his hands in front of his face to protect himself, his whole body hunched over, as if he already expects the worst.
