Then he looked at his parents, who had tears in their eyes and were too emotional to speak. He nodded firmly and gave them the answer they had been waiting for, “Yeah! There’s hope! I might not go back to the way I was before the injury, but at least it shouldn’t get worse. I won’t lose control or go crazy, and I’m not leaving you!”

“That’s amazing! Thank God! This is wonderful!” Todd’s mom, Lydia Allen, couldn’t hold it in anymore and cried. His dad wiped his eyes, his shoulders shaking.

The whole family hugged each other, finally letting out all the tears they had been holding in all this time.

But these weren’t tears of pain or despair anymore; these were tears of hope and a new beginning.

After a while, everyone calmed down a bit.

Todd looked around and asked, “Where’s Diana? Is she not out of school yet?”

It had been so long since he last held his daughter. He missed her so much it hurt. He couldn’t wait to finally hold her in his arms again.

“Almost,” Lydia said, checking the time. “I was just about to go pick her up.”

“I’ll go!” Todd said right away. “I’ll pick up Diana!”

He hadn’t seen her in so long and was dying to hug her.

Feeling excited and nervous, Todd took the pickup pass and went to Diana’s elementary school.

Before he even reached the third–grade hallway, he heard loud laughing and the sound of a little girl crying.

His heart dropped, and he sped up.

In the corner of the hallway, a few kids in uniforms were surrounding his daughter.

Diana’s small body was curled up against the cold wall. Her head was down, and her shoulders were shaking.

Her neat braids were pulled into a messy bun, and her uniform was a little dirty.

A chubby boy pointed at her and laughed loudly, “Why are you crying, crybaby? Your dad’s going crazy! My mom said he’s about to be locked up! You’re not gonna have a dad anymore!”

“Yeah! Psycho’s kid! Stay away from us!” another girl joined in.

“No, he’s not! My dad isn’t crazy! He’s a hero!” Diana suddenly looked up. Her face was full of tears as she shouted back, her voice shaking.

But her voice sounded so small against all of them.

“A hero? Hahaha! That’s hilarious! His mind is falling apart, and he’s a hero? More like a joke!” the chubby boy said, pushing her again.

Diana stumbled and almost fell. Her tears came down even harder, but she bit her lip and refused to cry out loud.

Seeing this, Todd felt his blood rush to his head. It was like something grabbed his heart and squeezed it; he could barely breathe.

He’d never hated himself more for the pain and embarrassment his injury had put his family through.

“What are you doing?!”

His low, angry voice hit the hallway like thunder.

The bullies froze in shock.

They spun around and saw a tall, tough–looking guy standing behind them. He was just in casual clothes, but he looked scary and powerful.

His eyes were sharp, locked right on them.

The chubby boy took a step back, scared but trying to act tough. “W–who are you? Mind your own business!”

Todd ignored him and walked forward. The kids quickly moved aside.
