The Sin of Youth Ch 2

The Sin of Youth Ch 2

02 

My front yard was swarming with nosy 

neighbors

I pushed my way through and saw my parents 

sitting on the couch, cops in the middle, then 

some guy in a suit and three other middle- 

aged dudes

Probably the principal and their parents

The three little shits were in the corner

Two of them were looking down, but the one 

in the middle was sitting on our old milk 

crate, filing her nails

When she saw me, she nudged the others

pointed at me, said something, and they all 

started laughing

I’m gonna kill you!” 

I grabbed the nearest thing, a glass vase, and 

charged

But they grabbed me right away

One of the parents even snatched the vase 

from me

Let me go! Or I’ll kill you all!” 

The shit in the middle hid behind her dad

grinning at me

A cop came over and patted me on the back

Hey, calm down. We’re trying to figure out 

how to settle things here. Don’t make it 

worse.” 

I shook off the parent’s hands

Alright, how are you gonna settle it?” 

The mood in the room shifted

They all looked at each other, exchanging 

glances

They were definitely planning some BS

The principal pulled me aside, put an arm 

around my shoulder

You’re Sarah’s?” 

Brother.” 

Right, look, the school takes this very 

seriously. We’ve given Wendy and the others 

a stern talkingto. They promised it won’t 

happen again. Seeing as it’s their first 

offense, we’re hoping you’ll” 

What are you saying?I shoved him away

You want us to just let it go?” 

Caught off guard, the principal looked a little 

flustered

Look, kid, we’ve already taken down all the 

social media posts. You know that kind of 

stuff going around ain’t good for Sarah. She’s 

a girl, after all” 

So?I laughed, but there was no humor in it

So should we get on our knees and thank 

you for your generosity? You took it down for 

Sarah or for these little monsters?” 

Kid, you gotta look at the bigger picture.” 

Can’t! All I know is my sister got hurt!” 

That’s when one of the parents scoffed

Maybe you should ask yourself why it was 

just your sister out of the whole class who 

got picked on. I bet she did something to 

deserve it. Takes two to tango, you know?” 

I punched him in the face, and he started 

bleeding. What the hell, man!” 

I’m gonna kill you!” 

く 

I was seeing red. I was about to beat him 

senseless, but the cops grabbed me

Easy, kid. You hurt him, you’ll be paying his 

medical bills.” 

My mom pulled me back too

I looked at her face, covered in tears, and my 

heart sank

Officer, we’re pressing charges. How many 

years are they looking at?” 

The cop sighed. I understand how you feel

but realistically, even if we go by the book

they’ll probably get a few days in juvie and

couple thousand in fines. They’re minors.” 

A few days? A few thousand dollars

My brain exploded. I turned and saw the little 

shits smirking

Hearing they might get juvie time, the parents 

got worried about a record and started

signaling their kids

The three of them rushed up to me, bowing 

and apologizing

Wendy grabbed my hand. I’m sorry. We know 

we messed up. It won’t happen again!” 

I felt something hard in her palm and looked 

down

She’d slipped me a bloody hair clip

The one I gave Sarah

It had a few strands of hair stuck to it

probably ripped right out of Sarah’s head

Fuck!” 

I was about to slap her, but her dad pulled her 

behind him

I’m sorry, Danny!She was crying crocodile 

tears. Hit me! Do whatever you want!” 

She was crying, but her right hand was giving 

me the finger

I’m gonna kill you!” 

Calm down!The cop stepped between us 

again. The family’s upset. We’ll talk about 

this later. You guys gotta go!
