Olivia woke up in a hospital bed, her wrist bandaged. Her dad was sitting beside her, head bowed.

‘Dad,’ she croaked. He got her some ice chips and fed them to her gently.

‘Why didn’t you just let me die?’ she asked quietly, looking down at the white bandage on her wrist.

‘I will not lose another person that I love. Especially like that, Olivia. Tell me, what the hell is going on?’

She sighed, a soul-crushing sound of exhaustion. ‘I’m being bullied, pretty badly. Marcie and her friends. I don’t have any friends, Dad and it’s all day, every day.’

Her dad sat there. ‘OK, I’m hearing you. I’m going to transfer immediately. There’s a community college that I have had an offer from. We’d be living in a small town and going to a bigger town for school. How does a fresh start sound?’

She began to cry silently, and he hugged her to him. ‘I’ll take that as a yes.’

A few weeks later, they were in their new home in the tiny town, although she was nervous about school, as usual. It never got any easier, but at least this time she was looking forward to it. The bandage had come off and she wore a bracelet to cover up the scar.
