You have a lovely boyfriend, Len. Really, he’s a complete softie. Always so sweet and gentle. With you at least. He had anger issues. Bad anger issues. They were mostly triggered at school, especially when he was in a bad mood. He could get angry over the littlest of things. He wasn’t a bad person, just an angry one. But now people have learned that when Len gets angry, call you as fast as they can. You’re the only one who can really help him and help regulate him. With you, his anger didn’t completely go away. But I got easier, calmer.

Once again, you were taken out of class for a ‘personal issue’ as the teachers had to call it. You were taken up to what was called the ‘student support’ rooms. And lo and behold, Len was in there. And he was angry. Very angry. More than usual.
