And you know what? Dylan had been watching as well. He was watching to see if he’d notice any set of bullies causing distress to other students’ lives, but he hadn’t noticed any.
But because he hadn’t noticed any doesn’t mean they haven’t been doing so. Just that he hadn’t seen them doing so.
The bullies that went around relaying Dylan’s instruction to other bullies weren’t part of the bullies causing distress to other students’ lives for now, it was the other bullies they relayed Dylan’s instructions to that were doing so.
They’d been trying to persuade them to stop, but they weren’t listening. And because they haven’t succeeded in persuading them, was the reason why they hadn’t resumed preying on Ryan and their other victims.
And they kept on hoping Dylan wouldn’t notice them one day as they kept trying to persuade them…it wasn’t an easy thing at all.
On this particular day, they decided to persuade them again. They divided themselves as usual and went to the different groups of bullies who hadn’t heeded the instructions at all.
And you know what? They were so surprised by the outcome, they weren’t expecting it at all…
The bullies decided to heed the instruction to an extent. They said they wouldn’t stop causing distress to students’ lives completely, but they’d try to be cautious with it from now on.
They weren’t cautious with it even after that information had been relayed to them, they were still doing what they were doing. But now, they said they’d try to be cautious while bullying students.
They’d be careful, so Dylan wouldn’t notice them. And apart from that, they’d reduce the number of students they were bullying.
..All these combined would make it harder for Dylan to notice them bullying students though they were still doing so. Enjoy new adventures from empire
The four boys were so surprised by the outcome of today’s persuading. It was just like all of them organized a meeting and decided to heed to the instruction to an extent because they all agreed on the same thing at a particular time.
They were surprised, but they were so happy as well. They’d been able to persuade them to an extent…they wouldn’t stop bullying students completely because it was already a part of them, but they’d try to be cautious with it from now on.
They’d be careful with whatever they were doing, and they’d even reduce the number of students they were bullying.
These were manageable, this was something that could be done without Dylan ever getting to notice it unless he puts special effort into noticing it…
“Wow! I was so surprised by today’s outcome. Why did they choose to heed that particular instruction to an extent all of a sudden?”.
“I was so surprised as well. As if they organized a secret meeting and decided to heed the instruction to an extent”.
Yes, this was the conversation that took place between the four boys the moment they came back together after the persuading had produced good results.
It wasn’t only two people that spoke among them, others said something as well. They were so happy because they’d be able to resume what they’d been doing.
The other bullies had decided to heed to the instruction to an extent, so they’d resume bullying Ryan, and they’d resume bullying the other students they’d been bullying.
Their own was worse because they don’t plan on reducing the number of students they were bullying just like the other bullies. And they were going to continue bullying Ryan…but this time, when he wasn’t with Dylan.
The both of them were always together most of the time when they were at school. They do head toward the cafeteria together during break hour, they do occupy chairs around the same table in the cafeteria.
They do head home together during closing hour if no guard comes to pick up Ryan, and so on…
So it would be fucking difficult to bully Ryan anywhere around the academy since him and Dylan were always together most of the time. And the bullies needed to do so when Dylan wasn’t with him.
So the bullies created a plan. They decided to trail Ryan and Dylan while they were heading home together after closing time.
Why did they decide to do this? Because they were sure the both of them couldn’t be living together, and their houses couldn’t be too close to each other.
Ryan was from a prestigious family, while Dylan wasn’t. So their houses can’t be in the same community due to how they differ from each other.
So a time would come when they’d have to separate from each other while heading to their different homes. Either Dylan would separate from Ryan first, or Ryan would separate from Dylan first.
Either way, a time would come when Ryan would be alone without Dylan by his side. Yes, they’d make use of that opportunity to strike.
They’d make use of that opportunity to trouble his life a little, and that’s what they’d keep doing until they notice something was about to go wrong if something were to go wrong at all.
Look at how far they were willing to go just to keep causing distress to Ryan’s life. That’s the way bullies are, their minds work differently.
The best way to make them stay away from you completely was to teach them a very bitter lesson that might inflict serious injuries to their physical bodies or to their hearts.
Today was another day of school, activities had already taken place, and it had just gotten to closing hour. Students were standing up from their seats and leaving their classrooms as usual.
Today was the day those four boys planned on trailing Ryan and Dylan while they were heading home to discover what they wanted to discover.
They were going to be super cautious to not get caught. Getting caught would ruin everything…
Ryan and Dylan had already walked out of their classroom by now. And before they knew it, they’d already arrived at the school compound as they were in the midst of other students.
No guard would be coming to pick up Ryan today…in fact, it’s been weeks since a guard last came to pick him up from school. He does enjoy trekking home with his friend Dylan.
..But as for riding him to school, that one happens steadily.
The four boys were standing on one side of the school compound glancing at Ryan and Dylan as they were walking out of the academy.
They needed them to walk to a certain extent before they’d begin following them from behind. The moment they’d covered the amount of meters they needed them to cover as they were so close to walking out of the academy completely, they began following them from behind.
Ryan and Dylan had finished walking out of the academy by now but hadn’t walked too far away from it. They were conversing as they were walking, and there were few students around them walking in the same direction as them.
They were busy conversing while walking…and they had no single idea that they were being trailed by those four boys who had caused a lot of distress to their lives.
They refused to quit, why wouldn’t they just quit?…
A few minutes had passed since Ryan and Dylan walked out of their academy. So that only meant they’d covered some meters as they were walking, they were getting closer and closer to their homes.
Up till now, they had no single idea that those four boys were trailing them. The boys were doing so cautiously, so it wouldn’t be easy for them to notice that they were being trailed.
And you know what? They were discussing the boys currently while walking on the road. The boys were following them from behind, and they were conversing about them.
Now, the boys didn’t know that they were conversing about them currently because they weren’t close enough to hear their conversation. They needed to give them enough space while trailing them since they were being cautious about it.
And Ryan and Dylan were talking about them not knowing they were following them from behind.
“Those boys have been staying away from us these past few days, and it feels nice”. Ryan said to Dylan, glancing at him.
“Why wouldn’t they stay away from us after that incident? Of course, they don’t want to get reported because they’re so afraid of getting reported. They’ve confirmed that I can truly report them to the teachers, so that is enough reason for them to stay away”. Dylan stated.
“But we’ve enjoyed this level of peace at school before, or let me say, I’ve enjoyed this level of peace before. And it has happened more than once, but they later resumed again,
I’m just having a feeling those boys would resume what they were doing before just as they did in the past. This peace we’re enjoying at school currently wouldn’t last forever”. Ryan said.
