The male began to whimper, with tears filling his eyes. Continually shaking his head and refusing to say anything.
'What a loser!' Lank sneered in his thoughts, pulling his arm back to land a punch anytime soon.
"Don't!" Nix shook his head, stopping Lank from punching the male in the face.
"It wouldn't change anything." He emphasized.
"But–" He wanted to speak up, to justify why this couldn't be termed as bullying. But the words didn't come out as he had expected. There was something about Nix that made arguing with him difficult.
His grip only tightened on the collar of the male instead, he had expected the others to burst out laughing at his predicament, but that was far from the contrary.
All turned around immediately, he could see the back of their feet as his glare was still fixated on the male.
Something didn't feel right about their reaction, he looked back, attributing it to one person–Nix.
