    Oliver was an ordinary 10-year-old boy who loved to play and learn. He was small for his age but had a heart as big as a lion's. He was always ready to help those who needed it, even if it meant standing up to bullies.

    One day, he noticed his classmate, Timmy, was being bullied by some older boys. They were much bigger and stronger than him, but Oliver wasn't scared. He couldn't stand by and do nothing.

    Mustering up all his courage, Oliver stepped in, telling the bullies to leave Timmy alone. He stood tall, his brave expression unwavering even in the face of danger.

    However, the bullies didn't like this. They decided to teach Oliver a lesson. With a sinister grin, they advanced towards him, overpowering the small boy.

    To humiliate him, they took off his shoes and socks, planning to tickle his feet in front of the whole school. Oliver tried to resist, but he was outnumbered.

    Oliver hated being tickled. It was the one thing that could truly break his will. He looked at the crowd, their laughter echoing in his ears.

    The bullies began to tickle him mercilessly. Oliver squirmed and tried to pull his feet away, but the bullies held him tight. His strength was slowly fading away.

    Suddenly, a voice rang out from the crowd. "Leave him alone!" It was Timmy, standing up against the bullies for Oliver. The crowd fell silent.

    The bullies were taken aback. They never expected Timmy, the timid boy, to stand up for anyone, let alone Oliver. But there he was, his voice full of determination.

    Timmy told the bullies that what they were doing was wrong and that they should be ashamed of themselves. He reminded them that everyone had a right to feel safe and respected.

    The bullies, faced with their own shameful actions, let go of Oliver. They didn't apologize, but they slinked away, their heads down.

    Oliver was relieved. He thanked Timmy for his help, his respect for his classmate growing. Timmy just smiled, happy to have been able to help.

    From that day on, Oliver and Timmy became the best of friends. They stood up for each other, and for anyone else who needed help.

    They proved that bravery isn't about being the strongest or the biggest. It's about standing up for what's right, even when it's hard. And that's a lesson they'll never forget.

    Their story spread throughout the school. The bullies never bothered them again, and they learned a valuable lesson about respect and kindness.
