The bully's redemption
In The Bully's Redemption, Kamsi, a bright yet ordinary girl from Nigeria, moves to Washington, D.C., eager to start a new chapter in her life. But her dreams of blending in are shattered when she crosses paths with Xavier, the infamous bully of Washington DC International School. Their first encounter is a collision—both literal and figurative—leaving her humiliated and furious, and him intrigued and unrelenting.
After a chaotic first day, Kamsi rushes out of the elevator, vision obscured by towering boxes. She slams into a figure, sending everything tumbling.
Xavier(sneering): "Are you blind or something?"
His tone is cold, his smirk arrogant.
Kamsi, though shaken, snaps back.
Kamsi (sarcastic): "You should be asking yourself that. Are you blind?"
His eyes flash dangerously, and his voice cuts like ice.
Xavier: "I don’t waste time on stupid and ugly girls like you."
Kamsi’s heart sinks, but anger flares.
Kamsi (muttering): "Did he seriously just—"
Before she can react, the elevator doors close, leaving her seething.
Later on, Kamsi, fresh from a calming shower, steps onto her balcony for a moment of peace. The city’s lights stretch before her, but her newfound tranquility shatters when she spots him—Xavier, lounging at the far end, cigarette in hand, his eyes glinting with mischief.
Xavier (mocking): "Didn’t know our neighbor was a nudist."
Kamsi, heat rising to her cheeks, glares at him.
Kamsi: "Didn’t know our neighbor was a jerk."
Their banter cuts through the night air, the tension between them thick. But before she can retreat inside, something unexpected happens.
Just as Kamsi begins to feel relief, thinking the encounter was over, a voice pierces the night air:
Xavier (amused): "I wouldn’t be so sure of that."
Kamsi freezes, spinning back around just in time to see Xavier doing something reckless—scaling the wall between their balconies. Her heart races as he climbs with surprising ease, each movement deliberate, until he swings over the railing and lands in front of her with a smirk.
Kamsi(alarmed): "What the hell are you doing?!"
Xavier grins, stepping closer, his eyes gleaming with a mixture of arrogance and intrigue.
Xavier (nonchalant): "Thought I’d keep you company. You looked lonely."
Kamsi’s pulse quickens, torn between disbelief and something else—something deeper, stirring beneath the surface.
Kamsi(nervous, defiant): "This is crazy, Xavier. You can’t just—"
Xavier (interrupting, voice low): "I can do whatever I want."
His eyes hold hers captive, and the space between them shrinks as the tension rises, leaving Kamsi breathless and unsure of what will happen next.
