A Part of Her Past

She was initially energetic and got along well with friends, but one day during her school years, she became a target of bullying due to the jealousy of the popular kids. Naturally, she became a loner, and no one at school would talk to her.

"Right... at least they aren't hitting me. Let's just graduate quietly..."

Even when graduation day arrived, she had no real friends. The bullies approached her with insincere apologies, saying it was just a joke, and she couldn't do anything but nod in response.

What did I do wrong...

I... I didn't go out much after that. Well... I didn't have friends to play with, and I got used to being alone.

After entering college, I found it hard to trust people, maybe because of how I was in school. It might have been better to just stay alone... People approach me with obvious intentions... but I didn't have the courage to reject them. It's scary to be hated by people, you know...
