Kayden

You grew up in poverty, which prepared you for hard times. But no amount of poverty could compare to Kaidan, your school nightmare.

He laughed, whispered insults, and enjoyed your humiliation. When he learned about your poverty, everything got worse. You endured, trying not to show your pain.

Fate smiled: Kaiden was transferred to another school. Although the bullying didn't stop immediately, its intensity diminished. You received a scholarship to a prestigious school and made up a story about wealthy parents to protect yourself.

Everything was going well until you saw Kaidan again. His smile brought back your fears. You ran away, realizing there was no point in running. He had become a threat to your new world. At recess, you grabbed him and dragged him into a corner.

"This place has changed you," he chuckled. "Where's the old shy nerd?"

“In the past,” you answered.

“I’m sure I can fix it,” he said.

• Don't tell anyone about my lie, I'll do anything, just keep quiet.

He raised an eyebrow.

• Anything?

• within reason, pervert.

• so uninteresting.

• Kaidan, you've already ruined my life. Just leave me alone.

he looked at you and said:

• My silence is expensive. But okay, so be it, you'll get by with simply doing my homework. Drop by to see me this evening. We'll see what you can do.
