Ayla and Little Man walked home from school, chatting about their day. Suddenly, a rock flew past Ayla, missing her by inches. Panic surged through her as more rocks followed. The stranger's taunts echoed in the air, making Ayla feel targeted and afraid. - Why are they doing this? Ayla asked, her voice trembling.
Ayla and her brother ran, their hearts pounding. They didn't stop until they reached their street. The rocks stopped, but the fear lingered. Ayla's mind raced with questions and doubts. - Do you think they were picking on me? Ayla asked Little Man, fear in her eyes.
Determined to reach home, Ayla noticed her brother's worried look. - We need to tell Mom, Little Man urged. But as they turned the corner, the stranger appeared again. This time, Ayla stood her ground, feeling a mix of fear and resolve.
The stranger's mocking voice echoed in Ayla's ears. - You think you're so brave, he taunted. Ayla clenched her fists, feeling both brave and scared. Little Man stepped forward, his small frame tense. - Leave us alone! he shouted, his voice shaking.
Despite Little Man's brave words, the stranger's taunts continued. Ayla felt her courage waver. She took a deep breath, trying to find strength. Yet doubt clouded her mind. - What if we can't stop him? Ayla whispered to Little Man.
Ayla and Little Man tried to walk away, but the stranger followed. Ayla's heart sank with each step. Her brother squeezed her hand, offering silent support. - We can't let him win, Little Man said firmly. But fear gnawed at Ayla's resolve.
Finally, exhausted and scared, Ayla stopped. She couldn't run anymore. The stranger laughed, sensing her weakness. Tears welled up in Ayla's eyes as despair took hold. - I don't think I can do this, Ayla confessed, feeling defeated.
Just when hope seemed lost, Ayla remembered her mother's words about courage. In her mind, she saw her mother's comforting smile. - We have to be brave, Ayla, Little Man encouraged, his voice steady. Ayla nodded, feeling a spark of courage ignite.
With renewed determination, Ayla faced the stranger. - No more, she said firmly, her voice resonating with strength. Little Man stood beside her, ready to defend his sister. Together, they took a stand, refusing to be intimidated.
Their courage paid off as the stranger backed down, surprised by their resolve. Ayla and Little Man walked home, feeling triumphant. - I knew we could do it, Little Man said, grinning. Ayla smiled, knowing they had found courage together.
