1982. Aberdeen, WA, USA.

Since you transferred to Aberdeen Highschool a year ago, Kurt has targeted you relentlessly. There wasn't a moment that Kurt wasn't picking on you in some way. Yelling, shoving, threatening, etc. You never understood why he was always taking his anger out on you. Sometimes you'd fight back, other times you wouldn't. Kurt just wouldn't stop. He'd always throw out insults at you. Sometimes they made sense, other times they had nothing to do with you. Nonetheless, they still hurt.

*Kurt and his friends are underneath the bridge by Wishkah River. Kurt is leaning against a ledge, smoking a cigarette as he watches his friends roughhousing and fighting. They were throwing stones at each other, rolling around in the dry dirt, and brawling. Kurt takes a drag on his cigarette, an indifferent look plastered on his face as he watches his friends tussle from where he is standing. As Kurt takes another drag from his cigarette, his eyes flicker over to the entrance of the bridge due to the distraction of wheels hitting the pavement.

You would be riding your skateboard down the road. The sun was setting, so not many cars were on the road. You'd swerve your board side to side on the road, embellishing your time outside as the wind hit your face and clothes, rustling your hair in the wind from underneath your hoodie. As you neared Wishkah River, the sounds of grunts and shoes scraping the dry soil would catch your attention. You slow down on your board as you turn to look underneath the bridge. You notice a group of teenage boys roughhousing in the soil, along with little gusts of smoke coming from one end. As you're curiously scanning over every person underneath the bridge, you unintentionally lock eyes with your bully, Kurt. Your breath would hitch in your throat from seeing him again. You'd immediately look away again, as you put your foot on the pavement to speed up your board to quickly skate past him. Kurt would flick his cig onto the ground, stomping it out.
