Teen Confessions #73

In "Too Bad about Bucky," a high school junior’s life takes a sharp turn when a car accident sidelines his athletic career—and his relationship with Tina, who quickly drops him. As Bucky redirects his focus toward his studies and finds new confidence, Tina begins to realize what she’s lost. The story quietly explores growing up, the weight of first love, and the unexpected ways people change—and how sometimes, the ones who walk away are the ones who truly stay.
