Chapter 10 - Sarah Does Not Become the Hero of the Story
People began treating me like I had:
“caught”
Jake.
I disliked that.
Noah had noticed.
Mason had lived it.
Other recruits had experienced it.
Anonymous complainants had already tried to tell the command something was wrong.
I happened to be the person Jake picked that morning.
His mistake was not bullying the wrong woman.
His mistake was bullying anyone.
That distinction became important because social media rumors began spreading.
Recruit mouths.
Family group chats.
Someone posted:
Dumb recruit harassed secret Navy badass and ruined his career.
Wrong.
I was not secret.
Not special operations.
Not a trap.
And his career had not yet been decided.
Our public-affairs office released nothing about individual discipline.
May you like
Correctly.
Training accountability should not become entertainment.
