Bethel's Pov:
The door opened and Ryan came in immediately. I was still on the call.
"Ryan?" The lady Called in a blaring voice.
"Are you really going to give me the silent treatment? Why aren't you saying anything?"
Ryan stood by the door and looked at me in surprise. He had my uniforms with him.
"Who's that?" He asked, but I was speechless.
He came to me and collected the phone from me.
He looked at the screen and ended the call. All the while, I just watched sheepishly.
He kept mute for a while before dropping the uniform on the bed.
"You should go ahead and dress up" he said and turned to leave.
"Who's she?" I asked and he looked back at me.
"Who?" I possum.
"The lady on the phone. She said something about...someone being sick - Dwayne".
Bethel's Pov:Huh?I scoffed and narrowed my eyes at her."Your...Your son?" I asked, perplexed."You have a son?""Yeah" she smiled.I was speechless. I mean, she was so young and still a student. How's it possible she already have a son?"Girlfriend!" I heard Nicole's blaring voice and turned to see her scuttling towards me."Hi" I smiled and opened my eyes to welcome her."Oh my gosh! You're looking beautiful. Take a look at your anklet" she said breezily, running her eyes around my body."And your phone! Hah! Oh my God! Is this yours??" She exclaimed.I blushed and covered my face with my palm."Come on, Nicole. It's too early to flatter me,okay?" I rolled my eyes."Hi Shirley" she waved at her."Hi" Shir
Bethel's Pov:She grasped my hand and ran out of the room with her.We ran out to the facade of the building and I got to know we weren't the only ones running out of the building.Geez! It was more like the entire students!”Where's he? Where's Ryan?" I heard a lady asked admist the crowd.We all stood and saw different cars driving in. Securities had covered the entire building and It was more like governors and presidents were the ones coming in.One of the numerous flashy cars opened and Lady K stepped out of it."Woah!!! Its Lady K!! I love you, K!!!" Someone screamed from the crowd."Lady K!!""My favorite diva!!!"She smiled and waved at them and the cheering increased.Hm. She was looking so pretty and hot.She was putting on a short red jumpsuit and big s
Bethel's Pov:"Bethel?" I heard him call and turned to see him standing at the entrance.He looked surprise and started walking towards us.Lady K was no longer holding her cheeks, but anger flickered in her eyes."What's going on?" Ryan asked as he got to where we were."She slapped me!" Lady K rasped."And that's because you deserved it." I retorted and turned angrily to Ryan."She isn't even feeling remorseful for what she did. She actually said I deserved it" I reported to him, angrily."That's a lie", her voice cracked."And why would I lie? I'm not a bitch like you" I snapped back at her.Immediately, she turned around and ran away.Ryan sighed and touched his forehead.'I've warned that lady to stay away from me. I
Nicole's Pov:"Clear the way! Get out of the road!!" The securities yelled as Bethel was stretchered into the hospital building.She was still unconscious and bleeding profusely. Ryan was running along with the stretcher as they took her to a ward.His eyes were filled with so much fury and at the same time, fear.Oh, God!Please.We finally got to the ward and the doctor asked us to wait outside as he went in with the nurses."Bethel", I whimpered and clasped my palms together.Tears were streaming down my cheeks."What did you say happened to her?" Ryan turned to me and asked, his voice cracking.Blood was all over his hands and shirt."I...I had spotted her from afar going into the dorm and decided to follow her.Approaching the room, I heard her scream and when I got in, I f
Bethel's Pov:My heart raced faster.He made me so nervous."What...What bad news?" I asked anxiously and he took in a deep breath."I...have to go away for three weeks" he released the bombshell, making me flinch.What?I scoffed and looked at him."Three weeks?" I repeated."Wh...Why? What for?""Well, there's a contract my manager and I have been working on for months now and...it just came into realization now. Its very big and...not something I can easily miss. So, I have to be away for three weeks." He explained.I looked down at the floor pathetically."Hey," he called and held my cheeks."It won't be long, okay? I'll be back before you know it""I'll be done with high school by then" I grouse."You won't be
Bethel's Pov:I returned to the room and found my phone ringing on the bed.I felt so tired.I plonked myself on the bed before picking it up.It was Nicole - of course."Hi girlfriend!" She called in a blaring voice, making me pull the phone from my ear for a moment.What the hell?"Hey, what's wrong? Do you wanna make me go deaf?" I grouse and she laughed."Well, guess what, Bethel? Guess!" She beamed."Um...you've been admitted into Oxford university?" I asked, knowing it was dumb."Come on, Bethel. How can I possibly gain admission by this time? We're still on holiday, remember? And they aren't giving out admissions yet" she said wryly."Well, I ain't good at guessing, Nicole. So, spill it out" I said with an eye roll,like she could see me."You won't believe it, Bethel
Bethel's Pov:The sun rays glinted on my face as I opened my eyes slowly and yawned.Gosh! I still felt so dizzy.I looked at Ryan who was still fast asleep, his hand wrapped around my waist.I smiled and planted a kiss on his forehead.Suddenly, the ugly feeling came again. Oh, GodI jumped out of bed and and ran into the toilet, throwing up immediately.It made my stomach rumble and I felt like passing out. What the hell is this?Oh, goodness. What could be wrong? Am I really falling sick?I washed my mouth and face before returning to the bedroom. I felt so weak.Ryan was already awake but was still lying on the bed."Hey love, are you okay? I saw you...rush into the toilet" he said and I panted and moved my hair backwards."I'm fine...just needed to do something" I repl
Bethel's Pov:I felt myself lying on a cold floor. I felt so dizzy.I opened my eyes blearily and tried to adjust to the dimness in the room.My head kinda ached.I stared upwards and my eyes ran into the ceiling.That was when I confirmed I was really on the floor.Hold on; where am I?Jackson!!I quickly sat up and looked around. I was in an empty room. What the hell? And I noticed my hands were tied.What the hell?I stood on my feet but couldn't move as a result of the rope.I felt so scared. How can Jackson do a thing like this?"Jackson?" I called, my voice echoing in the empty room."Is anyone there?" I called again, fearfully.Suddenly, the door opened and he walked in - Jackson. He walked in with one other boy who stood by the door with a gun
