Bab 7: Chapter 6: Bearing with the bullies II
On Nitish's first day at Oakland School, he quickly realized that he was an outsider in this new environment. Naveen, a notorious bully known for his aggressive behavior, wasted no time in singling out Nitish as his primary target. Nitish's heart sank as he saw the glimmers of cruelty in Naveen's eyes.
Throughout the day, Naveen unleashed a relentless barrage of insults, taunts, and physical abuse on Nitish. The other students watched in silence, afraid to intervene or stand up against Naveen's tyranny. Nitish's parents had warned him about the harsh realities of the outside world, but experiencing it firsthand was a devastating blow.
During lunch break, Nitish sought solace in a secluded corner of the schoolyard, nursing his wounds, both physical and emotional. The pain he endured was unbearable, but what hurt him more was the knowledge that fighting back would only escalate the situation and make his family suffer.
As Nitish sat there, tears streaming down his face, he couldn't help but wonder why life had dealt him such a cruel hand. He thought of his loving parents, who had sacrificed so much for him and the zoo they cherished. How could he burden them with the knowledge of his torment?
Naveen, accompanied by his followers, approached Nitish with a malicious grin. "Enjoying your alone time, zoo boy?" he jeered. "You're nothing but a weakling who deserves to be put in his place."
Nitish's heart raced as he fought to keep his composure. He knew that any response would only fuel Naveen's aggression, leading to dire consequences for his family. He had no choice but to endure the beatings silently, carrying the weight of his pain alone.
Naveen continued his torment, making sure to remind Nitish of the power he held over him. "Remember, zoo boy, your father's job and the existence of your precious zoo depend on my mercy," Naveen sneered. "Cross me, and I'll make sure they both crumble."
Nitish's anguish deepened as he internalized the gravity of Naveen's threats. The weight of responsibility crushed him, but he couldn't bear to risk his family's welfare for his personal vendetta. It was a painful sacrifice he had to make, though it tore at his soul.
Days turned into weeks, and Nitish's spirit withered under the relentless abuse. His parents noticed the changes in their once vibrant son but were unaware of the true cause of his suffering. Nitish couldn't bear to burden them with the knowledge of his daily torment and the potential consequences of retaliation.
As Nitish navigated the halls of Oakland School, his heart heavy with despair, he found solace in the quiet moments when he could steal a glimpse of the animals in the zoo. Their unwavering resilience and strength inspired him to persevere, even in the darkest of times.
Despite the hardships he faced, Nitish held onto a glimmer of hope, knowing that one day he would find a way to break free from Naveen's grip. He yearned for the day when he could protect his family without endangering their livelihood.
Little did Nitish know that fate had a way of working in mysterious ways.
