Bully: "You have my money?" Kid: "Yes, but I don't know why I have to give you my money." Bully: "You'll spend it on dumb stuff." Kid: "But it's my money... it's none of your business how I spend it." Bully: "You getting smart with me? Don't make me call my bluff." Kid: "Um, wait a minute - you're bluffing?" Bully: "The amount you owe me just doubled." Kid: "Wait - why? You told me six months ago that you weren't going to raise what I have to give you." Bully: "I'm only doing what's fair." Kid: "What's fair about me giving you more of my money?" Bully: "I think at some point you have enough money. Now fork it over, or I'll tell all of the other kids you cheated me." Kid: "But I didn't do anything to you!" Bully: "Six months ago, I didn't make you pay more - so I actually did you a favor, and now you have to make up for it." Kid: "I hate you." Bully: "Wow - you're really mean. I'll make sure all of the other kids know that." |
