classmates’ mockery.
Some classmates blamed Raka for being too weak as a leader. On social media, he even received hurtful and
unfair comments. Raka felt pressured, disappointed, and angry. He had several choices: to respond with anger,
to blame others, to withdraw from social life, or to remain calm and see k a peaceful solution.
