hello
I am going to keep this brief.
as you know, me and my parents been on the receiving end of bullying situation from our boarders for a while now.
things just got worse recently.
my mum tried to ask one of the bullies to move on Friday morning.
he refused outright, saying why and he doesn't want to move.
and then send my mother a text ( because we had oral agreement of two weeks notice).
on the same evening I heard him and one other girl talking in their own language, then I thought I heard that girl said " f a g g o t"
this is not the first time I have heard them using that word.
then he came home yesterday morning, all sugar and spice, telling my mother that he went to look for alternative living arrangement, and then apologized to my mum.
my mum relented and let him stay
the very same afternoon, I heard what appears to be that boy, stomping around the house in a thundering voice, the exact same bullying tactics some of them been pulling
since then I also hear some strange banging noises in the house, though I cant be sure what they are
I want my mum to ask him to leave again.
I think she is worrying about he being a bully again.
but I don't want to put up with it any longer
this is house, we should not be terrorized in our own home.
he might insist on the two weeks notice, then up the ante.
he may even try to damage our property.
especially this boy as well as the other two are currently on student working visa, they will be returning home to their country.
to be honest, I think there might be some misunderstanding initially, I have a mental health issue, so some times when I am unwell, I might have talking to myself, they might have misinterpret it.
I have also mutter some insult under my breath when things got bad, they might have heard it
I have been super nice to them since
but the thing is we usually have a turn over at the house of students from the same country.
I cant recall I have done anything to any of the four people in our house personally.
but I have a feeling they been gossiping and passing character assassination from one to the other all this time
I have this feeling because sometimes when we get new students who I have never meet before, they kind have this look of hostility on their faces when they saw me for the first time.
in fact, once, this guy who just moved in, when I walk pass him the very first time in the corridor, he tilted his chin up, in a kind of aggressive manner, like "what".
with exception of yesterday and today, I was so angry by their behaviour, I have again mutter some insult under my breath, once in my own language and once I said "[bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse]", as a pay back for all the things they put us through.
I know I was in the wrong for this and take responsibility for them
but I don't feel I should take responsibility for whatever gossip and slander on their part.
so I am wondering, since I have sinned in this situation.
does that mean that if we ask them to move, God will not help us and protect us should they retaliate?
thanks
