Hij denkt dat het zijn schuld is, net als de pesterijen op school ook door hemzelf veroorzaakt worden. Hij leidt een eenzaam bestaan, tot er een nieuwe leerling in de klas komt. Iemand die hem blijkbaar wel ziet zitten. Wanneer dat niet zo blijkt te zijn, neemt hij drastische maatregelen. Net na zijn vijftiende verjaardag ondergaat hij een metamorfose. Hij heeft zichzelf getransformeerd tot een zwarte verschijning die gaandeweg steeds meer afstand neemt van de anderen. Op een dag ontdekt hij hoe lekker het is om zelf iemand te pesten, en omdat hij een 'ervaringsdeskundige' is, wordt hij daar heel goed in. Tot hij te ver gaat. Hij bekent schuld. Wil het goedmaken. Maar dat komt hem duur te staan.
