100-Word Fiction: ‘We Knew What We Were Doing’

So right we knew he’d lost control of the class yeah, and what we said was that we could get to him and make him snap. You know. We had planned it like. He was a nutter, man. Crazy. Everyone knew. Even the teachers. You could hear them saying things and when he came back to school everyone was just looking at him and thinking was he weird and how we could get to him, just for like a laugh. We knew what we were doing. We wanted him to lose it…

but oh he hurt the kid so bad.
