Chapter 736 If You Dare
“S-Sorry!” Those weeping kids apologized to Tim. Tim thought they were quite pitiful when he saw their faces covered in tears and snot.
“It’s all right…” he responded in a diminished voice. “I’ll hit you all if you dare say Tim is ugly again!” Jasper waved his fist to warn them.
The teachers anxiously played their roles as pacifiers. “That’s enough. They’ve already apologized. All right. Those who want to go to the restroom should hurry up. The lessons are resuming soon.”
Gavin shot another glare at those kids before leading his siblings to the restroom. “I want to go home!” “I want my mommy!”
“I want my mommy and daddy!” Jesse turned around to make faces at them. “You all are shameless for crying after bullying others!”
“That’s right. The only thing you know is to look for your daddy and mommy!”
Jesse swept her eyes across those kids disdainfully. “Let’s go pee, Tim!”
“Okay.” Tim followed his siblings and said gratefully, “Thank you all so much!”
“Why are you being so polite? We’re brothers,” Jasper said while puffing up his chest.
Tim grinned. Gavin and Zachary smiled as well after seeing Tim’s reaction. “We will let anyone who dares to bully you have a taste of their own medicine, so don’t be afraid!” Gavin reminded Tim.
“If they dare to bully you, you must retaliate so that they do not have the courage to do it again,” Zachary chimed in and even shared some of his experience with Tim.
“I got it.” Tim nodded. “Tim, don’t mind what they said earlier. They are just jealous of you. You look exactly like us, and you’re not ugly at all. Your skin will become fairer after some time,” Jasper comforted Tim.
Oliver consoled his brother as well, “Tim, you’re so much cooler with your tanned skin. I wish to be as dark as you!”
Tim was touched. “I know. Thank you all!”
“Tim, you should eat more to become fairer and chubbier. By then, they will envy you,” Jesse reassured him. Tim bobbed his head again.
“Don’t mind them. You’re not at all ugly. Just take a look at us, and you’ll know. You’ve just been exposed to too much sunlight and are slightly malnourished. You’ll be like us once Mommy feeds you sufficient nutritious food,” Zachary advised Tim.
Gavin looked at Tim worryingly. He thought those kids who commented on Tim’s appearance were despicable.
“Don’t be sad, Tim.”
Gavin patted his brother’s head. Tim nodded. “I’m fine. Don’t worry about me, you guys. We should hurry up and go pee.”
Gavin, Zachary, Oliver, Jasper, and Jesse relaxed a little when they saw that Tim had cheered up. The six of them went to the restroom.
Gavin waited for them outside. He let his siblings use the restroom first mainly because he wanted to wait for Jesse as she entered the ladies’ restroom.
Gavin only went to the restroom after Zachary and the others came out. They returned to the classroom after they were done and did not realize that the parents of those weeping kids were on their way to school at that moment.
The kids’ parents finally arrived a short while after the class resumed. They felt their children had been wronged after seeing their children’s tear-stricken faces and listening to the teachers’ explanation.
The children’s parents immediately went to the classroom to settle the score with Zachary and his siblings. “Did you all bully my precious boy because you think you have the advantage in numbers?”
“Who are their parents? Hurry up and summon their parents here. Look at how frightened my child is!”
“They behave terribly, bullying their peers at such a young age. I fear to think how they will grow up to be!”
“These children aren’t here during the previous semester. Which school did they transfer from? They have rotten personalities. These children can forget about continuing their studies here if the headmaster does not provide us with a satisfactory explanation today!”
Those parents disregarded the teachers’ persuasions and proceeded to reprimand Zachary and his siblings on the spot.
Jesse cowered beside her brothers as she was terrified by those parents’ fierce demeanors. “Don’t be scared, Jesse,” Jasper reassured his sister, though he was slightly frightened too as he gazed at the adults fearfully.
