Description

I was assaulted in school when I was 13 for being a "freak". I had to get eight staples in my head to put it back together. It never upset me, it never made me feel more alienated than I already was, and I've never felt traumatized by it. But it's something that's stayed with me, all this time. I remember it every day. When it happened I was too stubborn to admit how much it affected me--maybe it hadn't yet, maybe I had to wait to grow up. But what happened that day, what he did to me, changed me.

It's been almost ten years and I wonder when it'll stop.
