“Shit! Failed plan”. Those were the words that flowed out of one of the bullies’ mouths as they were still walking toward Ryan and Dylan.
The moment they got closer to them, another person voiced out, “Why did you guys have to glance back and ruin our plan? We wanted to tap you guys’ heads with force, you shouldn’t have ruined it”.
And after those words finished flowing out of the person’s mouth, they walked past Ryan and Dylan and were standing in front of them right now.
They were four, and all four of them had smirks on their faces. They just stood at a particular spot glancing at Ryan and Dylan, and the both of them were also staring at them as well.
A lot of students in the cafeteria were happy right now. And why was that? Because another scene was about to begin just like yesterday.
Many of them had stopped eating with their gazes focused on Ryan, Dylan, and the bullies. Some were still eating, but they weren’t eating as much as they were eating before because their attention had been divided…they weren’t fully focused on their food anymore.
‘It’s about to begin again, I wasn’t scared for nothing’. Ryan thought to himself while glancing at the bullies in front of him.
The bullies were still staring at them, and they were still staring at the bullies. No one had spoken anything for seconds now, it’s just been staring and staring…
There were other bullies in the cafeteria watching the current scene, and they also watched the one that took place yesterday. Many of them had been making plans behind the scenes on how to resume bullying Ryan.
But the thing was that they had never come up with a good plan, so they’d never implemented anything. And that particular threat from Dylan was always making them scared whenever they thought about it.
But seeing these bullies doing what they were doing to Ryan without feeling scared or anything was giving them that morale to resume bullying Ryan as well.
They’d keep watching for now until they feel the proper time had arrived for them to resume bullying him…
The bullies were still standing in front of Ryan and Dylan glancing at them, and Ryan and Dylan were still staring at them as well. The students sitting around the same table as Ryan and Dylan were also staring at the bullies.
The ones that needed to turn their heads around to glance at the bullies did so. But the bullies weren’t here for them at all, so they weren’t glancing at them…their gazes were just focused on Ryan and Dylan.
..For the past few minutes now, this was what had been taking place, them staring at each other.
The cafeteria had been filled with complete silence for the past few minutes until Dylan finally broke the silence saying,
“You guys want to repeat this? Don’t you guys get tired at all?”.
Of course, he knew they don’t get tired once it comes to these kinds of things, they were bullies. But those words just had to flow out of his mouth.
“Yes, we want to repeat it, and we aren’t tired at all. In fact, we don’t plan on getting tired anytime soon”. One of the boys’ voices resounded with his gaze focused on Dylan.
Dylan sighed immediately, and Ryan also had to sigh at that moment. As known, the bullies wanted to confirm something, they wanted to confirm if the threat from Dylan about reporting them to the teachers were just empty threats or not.
As far as they hadn’t confirmed that, they’d keep causing distress to Ryan’s life in his presence, which he’d also partake of at times.
That was the plan, to resume bullying Ryan, and to stop bullying him in his presence if they get to confirm his threats about reporting them to the teachers weren’t empty threats.
To stop bullying him in his presence doesn’t mean they’d stopped with the bullying. It simply meant they’d begin bullying Ryan when Dylan wasn’t with him, they’d find a way.
But all these would only happen if they confirm Dylan’s threat wasn’t an empty one. As far as they don’t confirm it, they’d keep bullying Ryan in his presence…
All Dylan wanted to do now was to enjoy his meal until he had emptied his plate and left the cafeteria along with his friend. But seems like that wouldn’t be possible because of these bullies…these rascals that gain joy from disturbing other people’s lives.
“Can we not do this today?”. Dylan voiced out with his gaze focused on the bullies.
“If we don’t do it today, then when would be the best time to do it?”. The leader of the bullies inquired of Dylan.
“Maybe some other time, or maybe you guys can just end this act of disturbing other people’s lives. You guys can put an end to it completely, and it would be so nice”. Dylan uttered again.
The four boys glanced at each other the moment Dylan said that, then they began laughing. Yes, that same thing was repeating itself…you know, laughing at something that wasn’t funny.
Ryan and Dylan glanced at each other with confused expressions on their faces during the time they were laughing. Dylan didn’t find what he said funny, so he was wondering why they were laughing.
Even the students sitting around the same table as them that had their gazes focused on the bullies also had confused expressions on their faces. They didn’t find what Dylan said funny, so they were wondering why the four boys were laughing.
Ryan and Dylan weren’t surprised by this though, this wasn’t the first time something like this was happening. This wasn’t the first time the bullies were laughing at something they said that wasn’t funny.
After they were done laughing, the leader’s voice resounded again,
“You want us to put an end to what?”.
He was directing the question at Dylan, and Dylan didn’t waste time to respond to it…
“To put an end to disturbing other people’s lives, it isn’t nice at all”.
“I feel like laughing again hearing you say that again. If we put an end to it, then where’s the fun? There’d be no more fun”. The leader uttered again.
They gain joy from causing distress to other people’s lives, people they felt they needed to do so to…it wasn’t a new thing. So since they gain joy from it, then it was fun for them.
Dylan was fully aware of this, so hearing those words flow out of the boy’s mouth didn’t surprise him at all. And he knew these things he was saying to convince them to stop what they were doing were going to be in vain.
Bullies would always be bullies…but he just had to say them anyway.
The leader of the bullies walked toward Ryan and Dylan after those words flowed out of his mouth. And the moment he reached them, he tapped both of their heads with force before focusing his gaze on Dylan and saying,
“You shouldn’t have said something like that, it’s funny and annoying at the same time”.
That act of his made some students in the cafeteria begin laughing, some just chuckled a little. After he was done tapping their heads and had said what he wanted to say, which even made some students laugh, he turned around and began walking back to his gang.
He’d reached his gang by now and was standing in front of them, and each of them had smirks on their faces. Ryan and Dylan were boiling with anger right now, and it was evident on their faces.
They were staring daggers at the four boys…but all this rage was for nothing because they wouldn’t be able to fight the bullies right here, right now…
Silence just ensued for seconds as Ryan and Dylan kept staring daggers at the four boys until words flowed out of Ryan’s mouth, he said something he’d never said before, and he said it due to the anger he was feeling.
“Do you guys know who my father is?”.
A surprised expression appeared on a lot of people’s faces the moment he said that, Dylan wasn’t excluded. Dylan basically took his gaze off the bullies and focused them on Ryan.
A surprised expression was fully plastered on his face as he was staring at Ryan, he wasn’t even angry anymore. Then he thought to himself,
‘This is the first time he’s saying something like this. He must be really provoked’. Read new adventures at empire
The bullies weren’t excluded, surprised expressions appeared on each of their faces as well as their gazes were just focused on Ryan. Then Ryan’s voice resounded again, still staring daggers at the bullies,
“Oh! I’m sure you guys know who my father is, if you don’t know, then ask questions. Now, do you know what would happen to you guys if I report to my dad and tell him all that you guys have been doing to me? A lot would happen”.
..That surprised expression was still plastered on the bullies’ faces as they were glancing at Ryan.
