Sweet Torment
Episode 1
No one told me that it was going to be this hard
Over and over everyday in a never ending loop. I wake up, go to school, get beaten up, go home and sleep. All just to get up again and do the same thing the next day
I think ‘maybe I could beat them’
Maybe I could win and finally be free....
Asher
It’s never going to happen.
Asher
I’m never truly going to be free
Ross
What was that? Did you say something?
Ross
You really are pathetic, you know that?
Ross
Good. Remember that and don’t
Ross
Understand? You know what happens if you do, right?
Asher
I’m sorry...I’m sorry...
I could try to fight, but what’s the point?
They’re just going to kick me again tomorrow anyway
Episode 2
Ross
When I call you, respond
Asher
*rummages through pockets*
Ross
Are you serious? Is that all?
Asher
I’m sorry it’s all I hav-
Ross
I’m sorry that I didn’t train you well
Ross
When I ask for 50 dollars, you give me 50 dollars
Asher
I...don...do...la..s
Asher
....I don’t have 50 dollars
Asher
I don’t have any money
Ross
You really want to die, don’t you?
Ross
Don’t worry, I’ll help you
James
No, get his stomach!
Zack
No his face, right Ross?
James
Don’t be dumb, he should obviously go for the stomach. Right Ross?
Ross
*stops hitting Asher*
‘What would it be like to be one of Ross’s friends? Would my life be easier then?’
They were tied and held back by fear just as much as I was
Ross
You have 24 hours, got it?
Ross
If you don’t bring it by then...
Zack
Jay is going to be mad
Ross
Well just have to wait and see
Episode 3
-The next day when Asher is walking home-
Everyday before I run into Ross and his henchmen
I pass a martial arts center on my way home
Whenever I pass it I wonder
If I enrolled, would I be able to beat them?
But everyday after I meet them, the sliver of hope I have vanishes
Only to be replaced with pain
Asher
Ahh I forgot to bring the money
Asher
I just need to get through today
Just 15 minutes and it’ll all be over
Ross
I told you to stay put
Zack
Jay needs it by today...
James
We’re dead if we don’t give it to him. Remember what happened last time?
Ross
I’m sick of him ordering me around
Asher
*slowly walks closer*
This time there was something different
Asher
They didn’t even notice me....
I saw Ross and his henchmen gathered around something...no someone
It was a boy just like me - a boy who looked small and weak
