I only did what I did earlier because I wanted to tease Amelia, but what happened was her getting frustrated at me because of our situation now.
We’re punished for running around the hallways. Detention, isn’t that fun?
“Miss Wilson, I never expected you to do this. You never had detention ever since your first year in this school, what happened now? Is it because of this girl?” a teacher that I’m not really familiar with asked Amelia before she looked at me, as if she was judging me. I gave her a sweet smile, but she just scoffed, making my smile grow bigger.
“I can’t take this anymore! The 2 of you, off you go! And please, don’t let this happen again, okay? We can’t risk you getting into detention again since your reputation might get tarnished, and we don&rsqu
I always hated the thought of getting into detention, since it’ll be boring and we’re expected to stay quiet, and now I never knew that I’ll be able to enjoy it.“And then here I am. The only daughter of the Wilson family. I have like 2 older brothers, one who my parents adore so much for his achievements, and the other who was loathed because he chose to become an artist instead of being an heir of one of our parent’s businesses.” Amelia was the type who wouldn’t use her arms and hands too much when she speaks, and she’s very soft-spoken if she doesn’t have to be in her president role. I also noticed how her eyes lightened up at the mention of her older brothers. It makes me wonder just how much have I discovered about her?“What was your parent’s reaction when he did that? We all know how hard
The sun was setting. Pastel pink and a bit of light blue and purple became the sky’s color. I watched in pure adoration as I had my head laid on top of Zoe’s lap. I’m with the girls as soon as my classes were over. We were in the garden, just letting time pass by as we did our own thing.Lily doing her homework, Eun talking nonstop as Jada attentively listens to her, while Zoe is just reading a book she borrowed from Lily and I play with my phone. It was peaceful, and it made me forget about the scene I saw a week ago, but then of course, how can I forget it?I don’t really know what the score between Amelia and Mandy is, so I let out a sigh and decided to ask my friends about them.“Guys, what’s up with Mandy and Amelia?” As soon as I asked that question, Eun, who was busy
Sleeping at 3 am and waking up at 6 am was something I never expected to be such a hassle. I have been doing this when I was younger, but today, all I could feel was my head aching and my mood turning sour when I saw that Amelia already left our room. I groaned as soon as I stepped out of my head. It was like my head was spinning, and as much as I like to stay in bed, I know I couldn’t do that. I have a test in Science today, and I can’t miss that. Our teachers here hate it when their students miss even a single test, so as much as possible, I try to ace those tests so they wouldn’t hate me too much. It's been almost 2 months that I have stayed here, and believe me when I say that instead of getting friends, I was introduced to people who hate me. Most students hate me. They thought I was being a bad influence, especially after they all found out that I was s
Just like what Georgia wanted, we did ace our exam. There were no mistakes, and I could feel myself getting happy and proud since I did this without the help of a tutor. It was just me this time.I was holding my test paper, when a student came to me. It was someone I’m not really familiar with, but it seems like she cares too much about my business.“Look, the Chinese girl got a perfect score, not surprising at all, huh?” she joked, and half of my classmates laughed at it, but some ignored it, while others didn’t like the joke at all, and I myself also didn’t like the joke. It was not funny, so why were they laughing?And this girl, we’re not even close for her to joke around with me. I barely have enough time to befriend other students here, but then, that’s just one of my
“What do you mean?!”I never knew that hearing Zoe, who is also known as someone who’d never shout, this is actually very surprising. I don’t know why she is so angry so early in the morning, and as much as I wanted to ask her what the reason for her odd behavior was, I was still sleepy for any sane conversation.“She’s really scary when she’s angry, huh?” Eun asked me, who’s also lying with me on Zoe’s bed. I gave her a nod, before yawning and closing my eyes again. I didn’t have enough sleep, after what happened last night in my shared room with none other than Amelia.Last night, I tried to wait for her since she was on her night shift with other officers, but I was shocked when she came back together with Mandy. Although Mandy didn’t stay lo
On a normal day, it would be Zoe that could be seen taking care of us, but today, it was different. We made sure that it would be us who was serving her. Going through a break up is really tough, and even if she tells us that she is fine, I still feel the need to take care of her this time.“What do you guys want for dinner?” I asked them, since me and Eun would be the one to get our orders. Lily and Jada immediately said their usual dinner, while Zoe told us she’ll just have what we’ll eat for later.Eun and I went to the counter, and it was as if luck wasn’t on our side, because Mandy and some of her friends are also here. They were talking about something, but immediately stopped when she saw me and Eun next to them.“Oh, hi! You’re Miss Pr
I always thought that once I grow old, I’d still have the same set of friends beside me. I always imagined having my friends back at home with the one who’ll see me graduate highschool, enter a good university and graduate all together. But, now, it seems like it will never happen. I’m already in a different school, and from my last talk with them, I heard that some of them are fighting, and I feel bad because I wasn’t there to make them stop. I was their referee whenever they would argue about something, because I never liked the idea of taking sides in our friend group. I know it is not really my job or responsibility to do this for my friends back at home, but I know what they are all going through, so I would always choose to do my best for them to learn more and understand each other more. &n
It has been a long day, and my body has been aching because our PE teacher made us run around the football field, and even let us carry those heavy sacks around our shoulders. I groaned when I stretched my body, and I heard Amelia who chuckled behind me. I frowned, why does she seem so amused at me feeling hurt?“How are you so okay after all that?” I whined, and there she started laughing, then I was shocked when she went closer to me and massaged my back. I bit my lower lip to stop myself from saying anything, because her hand felt so good. It wasn’t as good as the ones who would usually massage me at our spa, but it was enough for today since I was really aching all over.“You should’ve warmed up earlier,” she told me, and I wanted to tell her that I did, but then I remembered that I really didn’t warm up earlier, making my body hurt too much. It was all my fault. I groaned after reali
If someone ever told me that I was such a pain in the ass when I was a baby, I would believe them because I knew that they were the one who were able to witness it, and despite being the one who does all that, I was still basically unaware of what I was doing. And this time, I believed my friends because they were the ones who were able to witness everything. They were all here before me, I was the new girl who still has a lot to know about this mysterious school. But despite being a transferee, I am able to quickly realize how dangerous this school really is. I don’t know why they kept on lying to me, but I would like to assume that they are all doing it to protect me from what this school could do to me once I find out hidden secrets that they made their students to never talk about. Ever. Nina. She was a victim, or that’s what I believe. But, she can’t be the villain here, knowing how kindhearted she was. She was the opposite of Rei who is known to be mean to others and only kin
It couldn’t be Nina, right?Eve sent me half of the things about the past regarding this school, and from that information, there’s only one thing I can confirm. And that is Nina and Amelia had a past. It would be impossible if they were only friends. Amelia isn’t the type who would show she cares for you even if you’re just her close friend. I gritted my teeth, trying so hard to solve all these mysteries, but it kept on leading to nothing. I want to get it right this time, but why does my mind tell me that I’m wrong again? I let out a deep sigh, before focusing on the teacher who was busy lecturing for an hour now, dang! Having 2 hours in Statistics and Probability sure can make my day worse than before. During the lecture, my phone lit up, so I opened it in secret not wanting to let the others know that I was using it since if they ever find out, my phone could easily get confiscated, and I don’t want that. As soon as I opened my phone, I was surprised, it was from Eve. I thought
Three Sides of the StoryOne is your sideThe other, is theirsAnd last is the Truth.What could be the truth?What could it be that they were hiding?They were so protective of their secretThat it made me want to know more about itWhat could their secret be?Is it really important for them to kill others just to keep it to themselves?Was death really the only way for them to protect it?Maybe they were just so cruelSo evilThat they believed death was the answer to keeping their secret a secretBut is it really?Don’t they ever feel guilt?How can they sleep at night, knowing that they had killed someone?Blood. There was a lot of blood shed. And I hope they find out soonOr else there will be more innocent killedJust for their own gain.
As soon as the student council’s secretary was out of sight, I was able to breathe fine again. What she told me made my blood boil, but then again, I have no other choice but to follow her stupid orders. And by supid order, I mean, her ordering me to stay away from Amelia or else she’ll have me expelled by her powerful father. I can’t believe she could do that. To go to such an extent just because her crush is not looking her way. If only she knew that it isn’t me that Amelia adores, it was no other than Victoria. But of course, what can she do against Victoria? Nothing. Victoria was even more powerful and wealthier than her, and maybe that’s why she’s targeting me, because she knows I have nothing. I’m just some peasant for her who can’t do anything. I wiped the lone tear that escaped my eye, before turning around, and to my surprise, I was greeted by Jada who had a serious look on her face. I was about to escape, but she was fast enough not to let me. “We need to talk,” she told
“People are ruined by challenged economic lives. But they are ruined by wealth as well because they lose their pride and they lose their sense of self-worth. It’s difficult at both ends of the spectrum.” - Malcolm GladwellThis quote opens our eyes about the sad realityHow hard it is for the poor to live in this cruel worldWhere they are treated like animals by the rich.Is it offensive that most of the time, the rich are the villains?Or is it really just how it is in our universe?Where those who are unfortunate are treated as slaves by people in power. Just like in their school, where the scholars are treated badly, just because they don't have enough money to pay for their own tuition.That’s why, what’s the use of wanting to change everything, when we all know we could never change it, at all?They were teenage girls who wished for change, but could they really do it?Do they have the means to do it?Or were they all just stuck in their own fantasy?It’s hard to change somethi
I didn’t know what to do. I had been avoiding everybody I am close with, and I know they’re thinking of any possible reason why I was acting this way. But of course, they would never know the real reason behind my actions. I looked away when my eyes and Eun’s eyes met each other for the third time today. I felt guilty when Jada even offered to make me sit with them, but I only ignored them. I haven’t been inside this school for so long, but I already feel like my life here has been so long, that all I need is to get out of here in hopes of making my mind calm from the storm that has been bugging it. With our teacher still not being here, I stood up from my seat and decided to go out and just skip this class. I need to get out or else I’ll get suffocated inside there. I don’t like how all the girls I am avoiding are inside that classroom. It makes me sick in the stomach, knowing that they’ll forever hate me once they find out what I had been doing just to be able to keep my scholarsh
Maybe she was obsessed. Maybe she was still hurtingMoving on has never been easyAnd maybe that’s the reason she made sure to have a piece of her in her ownBut things were not going smoothlyBecause someone was also inside herAn experiment gone wrongMade her daughter experience things she shouldn’t haveQuestions will resurfaceAll the lies will be revealedAll the villains will be knownAnd the real heroes will be praisedA new leader will be bornAnd the old school shall be renewedAnd she will riseBecause everybody knows she’s deadBut is she? No body was found. She was just goneShe did leave some traces behindBut all of it pointed to nowhereShe was acting as if she wants to be found, but the truth is,She doesn't. She wanted to go missing without anybody looking for herShe will always be unpredictable. Like her daughter. They believed she was dead and buried somewhere But she’s notShe’s alive.
My body hurts. I woke up to the sound of Amelia baging on the bathroom door, and there I realized that I fell asleep on the bathtub. I closed my eyes in frustration, because this only means that I would have to explain myself to my roommate. And that’s what I don’t want to do right now.I don’t even know if I can still look her in the eyes. I feel so dirty and small. I just want to get away from here as much as possible. When the bathroom door was open, Amelia looked at me in shock when she saw that I was already fully clothed. She was busy finding the key perhaps, and I made sure to look presentable as soon as she was able to unlock the door. “You went inside the bathroom at 9 pm, and it’s already 3 am.” She informed me, and her tone was gentle. It was so soft that it made me want to go into her arms and cry. I want to tell her how much I fucked up, and how dirty I felt and how I failed the girls who were victims to that asshole of a teacher. So, I put my pride down and went to he
Who would have thought I would end up here? Being in a fucking place where I swore I would never find myself. I ought not to take part in any bad actions, but here I am. “You never disappoint. You’re my favorite now,” our teacher said and I heard a young girl’s sob when he finally was able to zip up his pants. My grip on the blanket covering me tightened when he went near me to give me a peck on the cheek, before he finally left the abandoned room. “You’re the student council president’s friend, right? I see you talk all the time, can you tell her about what’s happening inside here? Please… I already feel so dirty, I can’t handle this anymore. Please help us,” one girl pleaded, but I chose to ignore her. There’s nothing I can do when I myself is a willing victim to be fucking used. “I can’t do anything about it. They won’t believe us,” I told them, before getting all my stuff to finally get dressed. I hate myself. I hate myself. I hate myself so much. I feel so fucking dirty, but
