59 Transfer of aggression

"Jo.. wait up. Please." Reen begged as she chased after her but Joreen refused to stop walking. She increased her pace instead which made Reen frustrated. 

 "Please..." She begged desperately, not minding the curious glances she was receiving. 

Joreen continued to walk ahead without stopping. 

"Jo.." Reen finally caught her hand and tried to catch her breath, "Hey, It's going to be fine."

"FINE?! Nothing is fine!" Joreen said, raising her voice. 

"This is so embarrassing and I hate it that because of me you all have to start fighting and getting into trouble."

"You would have done the same had you been in our shoes." 

"Maybe. But can you all listen to me once? Please?" Joreen said desperately. "When I say ignore them, then please do. Whenever I try to challenge people like that, they end up saying worse things to me and it always breaks me. I have learnt to ignore them because it's best."
