Ivy had been dealing with troublemakers since the semester started, using her mom's method of tough love on the first day of school. She gave a chubby kid who gave her grief a taste of his own medicine.
After that, there were kids who made fun of her dad's death.
But they all learnt the hard way that messing with her was a bad idea.
Now, they keep their distance, especially the chubby kid who started it all.
He had a hard time dealing with insecurities about his own body odor.
The school bus pulled up.
Ivy and Molly stepped off, one after the other.
And there was the chubby kid, getting off the bus too.
With Wayne back, Ivy was feeling chipper.
She greeted the chubby kid with a sweet smile and a gentle "Good morning."
He instinctively sniffed his arm.
His mom and grandma now washed his clothes with perfume, so he smelled nice.
He psyched himself up and was about to move on when his mom yanked him back: "Boy, you can't mess with Ivy anymore, got it?"
He thought to himself, as if I would!
The memory of the last time was still too fresh.
He still didn't know if he really had body odor back then.
"I saw online that her dad is really back!" his mom whispered, "Her dad's a big deal. If he finds out you've been bullying his daughter, and said his wife is your future aunt, we’re gonna be in trouble!"
He cringed, "I thought you said her dad was dead?"
"Who knows what happened. Just steer clear of her!"
"Alright..."
He hadn't planned on bullying Ivy anyway.
