The mask Guy

Chapter four(4)

He saved her (ii)

He gave the boys the beating of their lives

If Cassy was told that Fredrick could beat up three boys like him within minutes she would have doubted but here it was happening in her very own eyes but though she thought she was dreaming.

she kept rubbing her eyes so she could face the reality that she is being rape and soon the video will be uploaded in the school’s group but every time she look again the same scene is what she is seeing.

Fred offered her a hand which she took in standing then she knew she wasn’t dreaming but that it was really happening Fredrick the mask guy and his crush just saved her not knowing what else to do she started crying .

She didn’t know who initiated the hug but she just found her self in this embrace

“Am sorry I wasn’t early enough “Fred Said caressing Cassy’s hair

“It fine it’s not like you are my body guard you are just my classmate not even a close one at that “Cassy said withdrawing from the hug .

Removing his hoodie leaving just his fitted jean pants and his shirt Fred handed it to Cassy pointing at her body .

Ignorant of what Fred was saying ,Cassy followed the hand he was pointing and saw that she was almost naked she never realized that those boys have torn her cloths this much

Without a second thought Cassy removed her torn cloth without an atom of shame as she felt secure with him fred realizing what was happening

Turn around with his back facing Cassy .

After wearing it, the hoodie was quite short but Cassy having no other options coughed

“Hey you can turn around if you feel like”Cassy said pouting her lips

Fred regretted giving Cassy his hoodie because her skin was so expose and he was sure she wasn’t wearing anything protective underneath.

Hand in hands Cassy and Fred walked to their classroom.

Mara was so worried about Cassy’s whereabouts that when she saw Cassy walk into the classroom, she ran and hugged her .

“What happened I have been looking for you even miss Sarah told me you left her office long ago .

Are you okay ?

I almost thought you were been bullied again but when I saw Mandy and co inside the classroom I was relieved because they are the only bully in the school that I know of “Mara kept talking nonstop

“Hey am here now my legs hurt I might fall down if all you will do is ask questions I will tell you everything let’s sit first “Cassy said smiling

For the first time in her life she was finally happy as someone not related to her cares so much about her

“And this?” Mara asked pointing at Fredrick who was standing close to Cassy .

At that moment Cassy looked at the whole class everyone had an expression that shows disbelief.

They never believed that Cassy and Fred just walked into the classroom hand in hand and that Cassy was putting on Fred’s hoodie

until they confirm from the person next to them because some thought their eyes was playing prank on them .

Not minding their faces, Cassy walk to her sit with Mara ,while Fred went to his seat .Mara and Cassy sat down while Cassy explained everything that happened to Mara .

“What ?”mara asked not believing what she heard

“Yeah that was what happened my nude would have been circulating round the school’s group and even the internet at large by now if Fred didn’t show up .

“Thanks to heaven for not allowing those boys succeed how would you have survived the trauma ?“Mara asked hugging Cassy

With that Cassy knew Mara wasn’t expecting an answer from her what answer do she even have for such question?.

Looking at Fred’s seat ,his head was rested on the desk . Cassy wondered what he was doing

“Was he sleeping or thinking “

All Cassy wanted to see even if it was just for a minute was Fred’s face but that mask is the veil that’s preventing her from doing so .

The closing bell was later rang .students started leaving the classroom .

Cassy quickly pack up her books into her bag so she could go thank Fred but,when she looked at his seat ,it was empty .

Fred has left . Feeling disappointed,Cassy left with Mara.

Getting home and on opening the door, Cassy met her mum in the kitchen preparing lunch .

“Good afternoon mum” Cassy greeted going upstairs.

“Afternoon what happened to your cloths and who owns that hoodie you are putting on ?”mrs Justine asked

“Something happened in school mum but I don’t want to talk about it “Cassy said climbing the stairs

“Are you okay my child “ mrs Justine asked her daughter Cassy

“Mum am fine you don’t have to worry about me am old enough to take care of my self “Cassy said running to her room

She has grow up seeing her mother suffering so she has never tried telling her how she was bullied in school she didn’t want her mother worrying about her .

Getting to her room , Cassy removed the hoodie then washed and dried it .

She folded it close to her pillow,went down stairs ,had her lunch before going back to her room .

The next day Cassy woke even before the alarm rang wore the color of gown that Fred’s hoodie has and sat down to apply makeup.

But this time she took her time all she wanted was to look exceptionally beautiful

She started humming a song she overheard on tv sometime ago by an unknown artist

“Love me

Love me

Love me (x2)

Even without knowing the full lyrics Cassy usually hum that part anytime she thinks about Fred not giving her any attention

Cassy is aware that it’s weird loving someone you haven’t seen his face but she just wave the thought of love aside “it’s just a crush nothing more”she said in a bid to console her self
