After a few questionable altercations with other studentâs the faculty finally decides to relocate Afia to an environment that is more suited for her, public school. Afia is happy and ready for a new environment, different people, and of course the freedom to wear whatever she wants. Plus she wants the chance to prove to her parents that she not just a âbad caseâ.

Being the brave girl that she is, Afia saves Tobias and George; her newfound friends from Tony only to wind up in trouble herself. Afia confronts Tony the way most fearless girls would; screaming, and kicking, but Tony is like no other bully, heâs smart, quiet and it doesnât hurt that he has an impeccable student record. Unfortunately Afia hasnât learned the ins and outs of being a bully at the public school level, and gets herself in trouble with the school authorities at the hands of Tony on more then one occasion. Afia decides that she needs to deal with Tony once and for all. Afia, George, and Tobias devise an intricate plan to dethrone the king of all bullies. They confront Tony in a way that he never expects. They use his own scheme to beat him at his own game. For the first time Afia takes all the advice she gets from her parents, teachers, friends and even a little something she learns from the public school bully, and puts it to good use.
