In the school corridor, I, Lucy, was being taunted maliciously by Brittany as usual. Her shrill voice pierced through the air like arrows, devaluing me completely. "Look, here comes Loser Lucy. What a freak!" Her words were like poisonous thorns, stabbing my heart precisely every time. And her minions giggled along, that laughter like a flock of noisy crows, making me wish I could disappear into a crack in the ground.
That day, just as I was trying my best to endure all this, Mark's appearance briefly brought me a glimmer of warmth. However, Brittany's spiteful remarks shattered that hope in an instant, and Mark left in a hurry under her ridicule, leaving me alone to face this cruel situation. Just when I felt extremely desperate, the mysterious transfer student Chase showed up. He bravely stepped forward to stop Brittany, and his calm and firm voice was like a ray of dawn in the darkness, making me feel the possibility of being protected for the first time.
Since then, Chase has gradually entered my life. He doesn't seem to care about the so-called hierarchical system in school and always communicates with me sincerely. He praised my resilience in the face of cruel treatment, saying that I possess a quiet strength, which made me start to re-examine myself. One day, in the music classroom, I was playing the piano as usual, pouring out my pain and longing. After the song ended, Derek Thorne, the president of the district's Board of Education, was attracted by my singing. He told me that my song reminded him of his grandmother, the former famous opera diva, and hoped that I could sing for his grandmother. This unexpected opportunity made me both surprised and terrified, and Brittany's jealousy and anger also erupted like a storm.
Back at home, facing my mother's indifference and ridicule, my hope was shattered again. She regarded my dream as a joke and even hit me, plunging me into deeper despair. However, Chase's kiss was like a spark that lit up the darkness, giving me courage and strength. Although Brittany retaliated even more harshly against me in the study hall later, Chase's promise made me firmly believe that I was no longer the loser who let others bully me.
