I would like to honor the following people, who gave their care and support and love to me every single day, and those who inspired my sprit into beginning on this book. First off, I would like to give my thanks to my mother, my most loyal supporter and who

As weeks passed, things continued to change. With Teresa now standing with us, even if in a quiet way, we seemed to gain more respect from the other students. Our group had grown, and the school’s atmosphere was shifting, slowly but surely. The whispers were no longer cruel. Instead,

The days following Samantha’s intervention felt different. It was like the school itself had shifted, as though the atmosphere around me had been lifted by the mere presence of someone standing up for me. There was a sense of balance, a feeling that I was no longer trapped in

One sunny noon, the sky was painted a beautiful blue, tinted with white clouds. Sun lights beat down on our faces, warm but not overly hot. Flowers showed off their bright reds and light yellows and soft pinks and pure whites and strong purples even more than before, as if

The next few days I refused Elodie’s company at breaktime. I told her that I didn’t need her help. I began to talk more to Felicia’s gang, as if trying to fit in, even when they responded with more bullying. Elodie looked at me with confusion and

The next few days passed in a haze of humiliation and exhaustion. I did everything they asked without a word of protest. Every time Rachel, Teresa, and Felicia came at me with their demands—whether it was fetching snacks from across the street or handing over my lunch money—I

The next day, when Felicia, Rachel and Teresa stood in front of my desk, I can’t help flinching. The smell of glue still lingered in my hair, making me even more frightened. “Well, Serena, Teresa has a little trouble going on,” Felicia began, her voice almost a purr. “You’
