“Look who it is…”
I was exiting the school when I saw David in the parking lot and I kept on walking making sure I wasn’t making eye contact with him.
David grabbed his friend's attention and pointed at me, “That's the freak I told you about.” he said as they started making their way over to me. “Said that he hates getting touched. So you all better watch out.”
I tried to avoid them until David was in front of me and I paused a bit before trying to go around him. “Just leave me alone,” I said.
“Nope. I want a word with you," he said as he made sure that I couldn't walk away from him. “Someone approached me saying that I've been harassing you. Have I been harassing you?”
I turned to him, surprised, and wondered when Elliot talked to him. “I... I didn't say anything.” I stuttered.
He put his arm around my shoulder pulling me closer as if we were buddies, “It's okay. I'm not offended. We can be friends right?” he said in a kind tone that I couldn't trust.
