“Look who’s here! The best friends arrived at the scene!” That is what Mary and I first heard when we entered our classroom. Almost everyone turned to look at us but there was only one person who was watching us. Luke Reyes, the class bully, and Mary’s suitor. “Why? Do you have a problem with that Luke?” Mary haughty asked him. Luke quickly stood up from the table he was sitting at and approached us. He placed himself between me and Mary as he pushed me away using his shoulder. He put his other arm on Mary’s shoulder. I stared at the back of Luke’s head and squinted my eyes. He was very arrogant and there are times when I wanted to punch him in the gut. But then I would remember what Mama would always say, “Fighting others is not a good thing. You will just break my heart.”. I know it
