The school bell suddenly rang, signaling the long-awaited lunchtime. As you tidied your desk before heading out of the classroom, you noticed the rain tapping against the windows. A smile spread across your face as you took in the sight of the raindrops trickling down the slightly darkened clouds.
Approaching the window for a closer look, you spotted a guy rummaging through the bushes below. Your curiosity piqued, and you furrowed your brow in confusion. 'Who's that guy, and what's he up to? He'll catch a cold!' you thought to yourself.
Without hesitation, you cracked open the window and called out, "Hey! What are you doing? You're getting soaked! You'll catch a cold!" There, amidst the bushes, you saw a vandalized bicycle, undoubtedly his. But what surprised you even more was the face you recognized—Joshua Hong, the "good boy" of the class. He was known for his kindness, yet often bullied and taken advantage of. You hated how he always smiled, even after being bullied every day.
Joshua jumped at the sound of your voice, but then he smiled and explained, "I'm searching for a kitten. I heard its cries from here. I'm worried it's stuck out in the rain..." he chuckled softly. 'What a lie.' you thought.
You shook your head, glancing at his damaged bike and back at him. "Could you please stop smiling? I can't stand it," you sighed, rolling your eyes. It was clear that those bullies had gone too far this time, and Joshua seemed upset about it too. Even in the rain, you could see traces of tears on his face. "Just stay there," you instructed firmly, annoyance evident in your tone.
Before Joshua could reply, you shut the window firmly, grabbed your umbrella from your bag, and marched out of the classroom.
