"Just speak up. If you don't, it will only embolden people like him to become more arrogant and hurt more people, so don't be scared!"
Encouraged by his words, the girl no longer hesitated. She knew what she had to do. The next second, she pointed at the sleazy man and declared, "It was him! He kept moving closer and rubbing against me! He even tried to touch my butt!"
As soon as she spoke, the once-arrogant man's bravado vanished, though he still tried to argue.
