Ok, excuse the incoherence and sloppiness of the following story-I am pretty upset and not in the best of emotional states.
Yesterday I was leaving my school (and mind you this is one of the most prestigious public high schools in nyc) and this known drug dealer/trouble maker wannabe black indian kid in my school approaches me. Now maybe I'm a little bit to blame based on the fact that I smoke marijuana and have bought from people in the past but never have I solicited from him so using that as an argument against me seems tenuous at best.
Continuing on, he asks if I want to buy weed. I tell him no and he keeps on pressing. Until I finally tell him that I have to go to piano practice(the truth) and I just don't wanna smoke any marijuana. Well, yet even after hearing this, he still can't take no for an ansnwer and starts edging his way into my face. I try and move to the side so I can walk past him but he keeps following me and at the same time inching his way forward, his eyes fixed on my eyes trying to intimidate me(even though he is skinnier than me). He then proceeds to call me a ***** and say I am the biggest ***** in school (poeple say this because in the past people have done **** to me and I didn't fight). He then keeps on asming me If i know who he is. I tell him whatever and try to leave but he pushes up into me and then asks me if I have money to which I respond with a no. He then tells me I am lying and to give him my money and my wallet. I say no.
So I then tell him that I really need to go and am running late and I try and turn around to go in the other direction but he grabs onto my arm and basically says what the hell are you doing don't walk away from me when I'm talking to you. Needless to say, this really pisssed me off and caused me to raise my voice and I called him a piece of **** and told him not to touch me . Which he then replied to with a sucker punch to my jaw. I staggered back and at this time his two big drug dealing cousins who don't even attend our school come out of nowhere and try to hold him back and tell basically tell me to watch it or else I'm gonna get my ass whopped. They also claimed he was drunk but I don't see that as an excuse to rob someone. Now in the process of this he hits me again this time knocking off my glasses and breaking them though I fixed them later on. Now I am a nonviolent person; indiscriminate violence goes against some of my core beliefs which I am not going to get into right now, but basically, I don't fight unless it's life and death. So anways, to make a long story short, I manage to get away although not without hearing him taunt me and say he would rip me apart, beat my ass, etc-his cousins happened to be holding him back so he couldn't lunge at me which it looked like he was itching to do. Now aside from being assaulted, the thing that pisses me off is that my friends, some of whom, are cool with this kid, are not less than 5 feet away when this is all going down and don't do ****t. All they tell me is to leave before I get myass kicked. I'm sorry but that just pisses me off. And then furthermore, they call me a ***** for not fighting when fighting would have entailed the risk of going to jail (I am a senior and actually want to go to college). So the next day, I come into school with the idea of forgetting the whole thing happened. I didn't even want to report it. But then some teachers and security guards who saw the whole thing go down the day before call me in and basically tell me that I have to write me up an account of the incident. When they ask me whether I would like to follow up with it I say no. And they are like ok. Flash forward a couple of hours in school, I am called down to the office and a bunch of cops , real cops , are there and they bascially try to get me to press charges against the kid although I'm sure they were more interested in getting him on drug charges cuz the administration has been trying to get rid of him forevever and they even searched his lockers for drugs that same day but to no avail. I tell them my story and they ask me If I ever seen him sell drugs, and I say no. Then when I tell them I don't want to press charges they basically give me a ****ing speech on how it's the right thing and how he's going to try and mug more people again (which is prolly true-he's been muggign peole many a times). At this point, I'm still hesitant but then my mind jus flashes back to when he tried to rob me and how threatened I felt and so I ask them if there is an alternative to keep him away from me and they say no. So finally, I agree to press the charges. I fill out the form and then they arrest him( only for a day)- his court appearance is later on. Afterwards, mad kids are insulting me and calling me a ***** for pressing charges and not fighting. Now trust me, I am not a *****. I can hold my own. In fact I could get some friends of mine who are ignorant enough to come down and back me up but that might involve firearms and like I said before I don't want any trouble. Another issue is that I have friends that know this kid who say he's vindictive and even though there is a restraining order on my side he'll get his big time drug dealing friends from the bronx to come and **** me up when I least expect it- especially since his family is indian and they disown their kids when they do ****ed up ****. Now I feel like I should just drop the charges (even though he' a piece of **** who deserves to get his ass thrown in jail). As a matter of fact I prolly am-I don't know if this will appease his anger but since I didn't really want to report him in the first place this doesn't seem too bad a option. I know that people will continue to call me a ***** either way but I really don't care I just want to be left alone. I am really just pissed of at my school, the cops, and everyone just about now .
Any suggestions would be great!
