Once we got to my room, Mum ordered me to lie down on the bed. She then proceeded to take the belt off the jeans she was wearing that day, then absolutely leathered my backside. The thrashing lasted for at least a good five minutes, which resulted in me crying like a little boy.
My sister was downstairs at the time and could clearly hear everything that was happening upstairs, so she told me afterwards. Luckily she didn’t tease me about it, as her she was certainly no stranger to a leathering from Mum either.
That night I could barely sit down. I also got grounded for two weeks. But the worst part was that I had to apologise to the girl I had bullied, and my mum told the girl and her mother that I had got my backside tanned for my trouble.
This was a day that I have never forgotten.
