A Long-time Friend
For years, I was getting bullied in the locker room while in middle school. I was small, wore big glasses, braces, and I had a speech impediment. I was the portrait of the kid in the movie who would get bullied. Suddenly, a tall kid comes over and pushes the bully so hard that he flew back, hitting the locker. I had no idea who he was but a decade later, we’re still friends.
