Sic. Casey or Jeff or Rick or all three of them couldn’t even spell it right.

When I saw Staci in class it looked like she’d applied too much blusher and she had a startled, blank look in her eyes. The expression seemed wrong on her, unfamiliar, like if she’d suddenly dyed her hair a different color. I wanted to do something—laugh in her face or tell her I was sorry or remind her that being mean sucked but it didn’t seem like any of the options were right so I just sat quietly and avoided looking at her while everyone else snickered, just as they had at me after my fifteen minutes of graffiti fame.

But when I ran into her in the hall I couldn’t help asking if she was okay.

“What do you think?” she snarled.

I wasn’t sure what she meant by that. Did she mean, Of course I’m okay. I’m always okay, or Would you be okay if someone called you a hore (sic) in twelve-foot letters?

Even pretty, popular girls got brutalized in junior high. I thought they were immune.

Blow.

Dick.

Blow.

Chunks.

Blow.

Job.

Blow.

Hore.

Sic.

Sick.

Suck.

It sucked being us.
