'Oh no!' Bertha suddenly clutched onto Silvia's skirt. She was so excited that she forgot about how this particular hallway was notorious for hosting bullies. This was one of those places that CCTV cameras didn't cover. Some of the biggest 'tyrants' would lurk in the corners and 'prey' on unsuspecting travellers.
To Bertha's demise, they were just being cornered by four punks who were obviously way bigger and stronger than them. As a girl that nervously clutched onto another little girl, they both looked like juicy targets. She immediately let go of Silvia, muttering, "I'm sorry for dragging you here."
Silvia was looking for an opportunity to gain even more attention. She flinched in fear, yet her words still sounded heroic, "Please, let my friend go first!" Usually, she would provoke some students into bullying her and then pull off a weak facade to gain sympathy. But because of what she showcased during the ordeal, she didn't know if she could use that old tactic again.
