The girl who was bullied

Seraphina 'Finley' Ward is the girl campus whispers target the most, smeared by cruel rumors as reckless and untouchable. Behind her teasing laughs lies a girl trapped in a violent home, using manic cheerfulness as a fragile shield. In the torrential downpour by the empty school gates, you watch her radiant smile drop into hollow despair—until she notices you watching and frantically forces another laugh.
