《BULLIED》Submission 853
Advertisement
A few weeks ago, I posted song lyrics on Instagram. The lyrics were from "Wolf in Sheep's Clothing" by Set It Off. The lyrics were "If I could kill you, I would, but it's frowned upon in all fifty states." I didn't think it was bad because I said that they were just lyrics and I thought everyone would understand.
A week or two later, I was called down to the assistant principal's office. I sat down in the chair and waited for her to talk to me. She said she had to go get someone and she left. She came back a minute later and it was a cop!
They started off by saying that I wasn't in trouble and they just wanted to talk to me. That is never a good thing.
The cop asked me what the story is with "ExFriend" (who I will call EF). I started crying because it was still fresh in my mind. (We had a falling out because she was mean to me and constantly got mad at me for nothing!)
Well, they kept talking to me and eventually they asked about my second Instagram account (the one I posted the lyrics on).
And then I was accused of cyber bullying and sending EF death threats. DEATH THREATS! Just because we "have a history"!
I had to defend myself and say that I was just posting song lyrics, which I was. And the whole time I was crying. That was the worst.
When the two of them decided they believed that I wasn't going to murder EF, the police officer left. I stayed in the assistant principal's office so I could stop crying before I had to go to class. I then got lectured on how what I post can affect people, which I agree with, but I SAID THEY WERE SONG LYRICS WHEN I POSTED THEM!!!

I thought EF knew me well enough to know that I'm not going to kill someone, but I guess not.
And now she's trying to be my friend again, but that's not going to happen. I gave her too many chances.
We were friends for about 4 years and I don't know why. She was always awful to me. She's the reason that I had contemplated self-harm so many times. (But I never did). She's the reason I cried myself to sleep. She's the reason I could have gone to jail because I "cyber bullied" her!
I've been kind of depressed again ever since, but my friends have made it better. Idk what to do to make myself feel good again.
And I don't know if this counts as bullying, but I think it should count as some type. Thanks for reading and caring. :)

Reader suggestions is turned on, feel free to point out errors I missed and I'll fix them up! Chasing sun, napping softly: Cultivation/Xianxia genre. Some parts will poke at the ridiculousness of the Xianxia gerne. We follow the life of a magical fox monster, who doesn't like how the cultivation world works. Said beast seems to have more knowledge than is usual for normal magical beasts. In it's infinite wisdom it decided to search for the main character of the cultivation world to have a cozy and safe place beside him. Our fox will act as a "wise beast" to coast along on the main characters rise to greatness, all for peace, happiness and that amazing napping spot in the sun. The challenges for myself with this story: Writing in first person. Comedic effect between talking vaguely and sounding wise. The cost of heroism: A story more centered around fights and mental health of hired mercenaries/heroes. The world is infected with an eldritch corruption. Humans are trying their best to explore and clear out wilderness and the dungeons hiding in them to establish new cities. Lords seek for hired hands to do the professional work. Thanks to the setting, the story will show how awful pasts are the norm and how pragmatic people became thanks to that. People exchange their sanity for riches, fame and gods acceptance. Interpersonal relationships change drastically and quickly. The challenges for myself with this story: Writing grim scenes/imparting a feeling of how grim the world is. Writing fight scenes. Showing different mental states. Describing their influence on people during fights, walks or even after successful or failed campaigns. Who will be the next powerhouse? : A story about a gaming show, it's host Staan and the different participants. Stereotype characters, stereotype backstories, silly challenges and quizzes. The winner of those challenges gets powerups for their power system. Be it magic, ki, psychic power or anything else imaginable and unimaginable to reach the power of gods. The challenges for myself with this story: A softer tone for storytelling. Making the reader smile and enjoy themselves. A different try at slice of life story. I was left behind on earth as my family conquered another world and enjoys riches, but that's okey because I got a cheat too! : Stereotypical Isekai story parody twisted into an Urban Fantasy story. The challenges for myself with this story: Writing over the top and overdramatic scenarios/scenes Writing in first person. Walking into stereotypical scenarios and making them more dramatic/giving them a twist. Different type of humor.
