My long dirty blonde hair flowed behind me as I ran through the halls of Harmore high school. The mob of girls had almost caught up to me, and I was starting to lose my breath. I made it out the doors but tripped on a stone on the front lawn. They all crowded around me.
"I can't believe I ever liked you. God, you are such a disgrace to the school!" Amanda boomed angrily. The others nodded and mumbled harsh judgements.
I gasped for air and managed to squeeze out, "I'm still the same person.."
"Yeah. Guess you were just a queer all along." Kate sneered.
"Queers like you need to be taught a lesson!" Emilee shouted in my face, and the other girls all roared in agreement. A drop of saliva fell from Emilee's mouth, and all of a sudden everything was in slow motion. Everyone hacked up some spit and shot at me. I became covered in saliva, since the shield of the forearms wasn't strong enough.
As the spitting ended, Janice kicked my side and flung me over onto my stomach. I landed with a loud thud. And then everything went black.

"I knew you were seeing her! I knew it!" I could hear Mum cry from my room.
"That's not true! You're a liar!" Dad shouted back.
"Then why were there two meals on the receipt? Why was your business trip 'extended'?! Why has she only recently been greeting me?"
"God, you're such an intrusive bitch!"
"Maybe I don't want you to split up this family? Have you ever thought of that?"
A door slammed. I felt strongly that I should interfere, but I didn't. To drown out Mum's crying, I slipped on my headphones and blasted some Beatles.
