By the time he looked up , Kayla had already snatched the scissors from his hand . She yanked his hair back in one swift motion , forced his chin up , and pressed the sharp tip of the scissors directly against his left eyeball . The point was so close .

He tried to stay calm and defend himself , his voice shaky but sharp . " S - She was bullied . That's a fact . " Her face was swollen . She was covered in dirt when she came . I'm not turning on you , alright ? I'm just being fair . Let go of me right now , or I swear , I won't- " Before he could finish , Kayla yanked his hair even harder . The scissors inched closer to his eye . His words turned into a cry of panic . He dropped to his knees , his whole body frozen stiff .
