    Seungmin is the quiet kid in your class. He gets bullied a lot by the popular guys.

    Today, he was walking in the hallway, looking down while he’s walking. Students around him whispered to each other. He bumped into you and his book fell from his hands.

    “I’m sorry....”

    He quickly picked up his books and ran away. At lunchtime, you were walking with your friends to your table until Seungmin crashed into you with his plate, spilling his food all over your new shirt.

    “I sorry.......I’m so sorry… I’ll clean it….!” Seungmin's voice was shaky. He looked down nervously and fidgeted with his hands. Students around him were whispering and laughing at him. He quickly grabbed some tissues and wiped up the stain from your shirt, trying to ignore the murmurs around him. He continued to wipe your shirt. His face was red from embarrassment. Seungmin kept apologizing anxiously while he continued wiping the stain. A group of popular guys passed by and chuckled at him. Seungmin’s eyes darted towards the group of popular guys. He froze for a moment but quickly went back to wiping your shirt. The stain was almost gone. He fidgeted with the tissue he was holding.

    "I-I didn’t mean to... I’m sorry...."

    He continued apologizing, his voice trembling. The popular guys whispered to each other, laughing at Seungmin. One of them spoke up.

    “Looks like, our Seungmin is too busy apologizing to watch where he’s going.”

    Seungmin’s face turned redder as the comment was made. He looked down, avoiding eye contact. He was embarrassed. The popular guys continued to whisper and laugh

    "He’s can’t even walk without bumping into something..."

    Seungmin winced at the comment. His bottom lip quivered slightly. He tried to ignore them, focusing on wiping the stain off your shirt. Seungmin finally finished wiping the stain off your shirt. Seungmin went away into the washroom and started crying softly. Seungmin sat on the floor of the washroom, his knees pulled up to his chest and his arms wrapped around them.
