Dream Come True

The crowd erupted into laughter. Kenneth, on the other hand, looked like steam was about to shoot out of his ears.

Normally, there would be teachers around to keep him in check, but today they were all busy with the director, arranging the children the visitor was supposed to evaluate. That meant no one was around to stop him.

A slow grin spread across his face. Finally, the perfect opportunity to do what he had always wanted.

"There's no teacher here to save you, little girl. So, I suggest you kowtow. Maybe I'll be benevolent enough to let you go today," the bully sneered, arms crossed, his smirk full of arrogance.

Silence.

Little Sweetie didn't respond. She was too busy counting the time in her mind, completely ignoring him.
