The Bully
For the flash fiction February challenge
Thank you Sam Mortimer for letting me use his image Dassorm Dedication! for inspiration.
The Bully belongs to the following groups:
Flash FictionAn evil smile ensued as he saw the small girl come through the school gate.
She looked up and saw him, took an anxious breath and tried to scurry off in the other direction. She hoped her tiny legs would carry her quick enough.
The bully was too fast, his hailstorm of abuse imminent.
“Eeewwww, wearing the same dress again are we? Is that the only one you have? You must be the poorest kid in this whole school!”
He started flicking the freckles on her face.
“Looks like the flies shit on you too!”
Her face stinging and hanging downward she didn’t notice the Hurricane coming up from behind him, neither did the bully.
In a hastened blur of arms and punches, the bully lay on the ground defeated and bleeding.
The girl’s brother slipped his swollen hand in hers and safely walked her to her classroom.

This is so awesome, and so loving. Big brother watching his sister’s back. Very satisfying ending, I agree.

Thank you Natella2020, I enjoyed writing the ending just as much, I think, as you reading it :)

It’s still in my head
I had 2 older brothers above me when i started tech
no one knew until someone tried to take some money of me.
Short version- lots of blood- none of it belonged to my family

And some call it “Poetic Justice”
poetic justice: just retribution: a situation in which somebody meets a fate that seems a fitting punishment or, less often, a fitting reward for their past actions
