When Heroes Are Forgotten Novel – Because I applied for the poverty scholarship, the class monitor took the lead in bullying me, accusing me of taking her spot. I used my privileged card to take the bus.
She mocked me with her uncle, who was a bus driver. They said I would take advantage of anything. What followed was her even more intense bullying toward me. I reported it to the principal, who brushed it off.
I looked for the police, and the police only made a record. It was only because her parents said they had connections and were not afraid of trouble. I had no way to appeal. I could only kneel outside the military community with my father’s First Class Merit Medal, my mother’s “Most Honorable Doctor” certificate, and my grandfather’s General Medal.
“People say having these things can prevent being bullied. They are all liars! “I don’t want these honors and medals. Please bring my father, mother, and grandfather back to life.” As soon as the school bell rang, I couldn’t help but shiver.
Right after the teacher left the classroom, I grabbed my backpack and ran out of the classroom. But I was still trapped at the foot of the teaching building. A few girls were chewing gums and jokingly said, “Sue, you are right. This bitch wants to run away.” I was trembling all over and instinctively turned around to run.
But when I turned around, someone forcefully grabbed my collar. It was Sue Davis. She was the mastermind of bullying me the past month. It was because I applied for a poverty scholarship a month ago. As the class monitor, Sue accused me of taking her spot. She knew that my parents were dead.
Without an elder to protect me, she could bully me recklessly. That day, she dragged me to the restroom and tormented me for a whole hour. Finally, they forced me to cancel my application for the scholarship. I thought that the suffering I had endured would end.
I never thought this was just the beginning. Every day, they would take me to the rooftop of the abandoned equipment room and beat me. New wounds appeared on my body every day.
