Chapter 3

Mercy's pov

My day was going well until some girl decided to sit beside me in my last class, she was so babbling as if she knows me, I did I'm what good at, avoided her, gave her the silent treatment, she did not seem to mind though, the more I gave her a cold shoulder the more chatty she was.

I ended up losing my temper  " don't you know how to interpret gestures?" I yelled at her which invited attention to us, she looked at me and smirked a little before mouthing " nice one dragon keep the fire coming".

The lecturer asked if have a problem, I wanted to scream damn yes, please move the chatterbox next to me, but come to think of it the lecturer would not, I saw a slight smile playing on his lips when I lost my temper instead of being vexed he smiled, that didn't make sense to me.

I rolled my eyes" he likes you" the Barbie doll next to me disturbed my peace once again, I breathe in slowly" do you ever get tired of talking " she chuckled.

The chatty barbie me everywhere I went she was so troublesome, I felt like my head was about to explode for the past 4 weeks she's been following me around like a lost puppy, I even git used to her being around I did not treat her as a friend, not as a for either, she was just someone I have grown fond too,

My walls were too high to let anyone on, but her persistence and determination made me change my mind, I did not scowl, scold and give her the cold shoulder anymore.

I would nod or shake my head when she asks something guess what the girl was over the mood the first time I joined in in her conversations even when it was shaking and nodding my head, every morning I anticipated her new weird topics, I once smiled at her, it was like a gave a beggar a slice who has not eaten for weeks.

I was at the cafeteria eating my usual bagger and fries, " how come you eat so much junk every day yet you still have this perfect figure?" 

I shot her a look and continued with my lunch, someone passed by us, the which of the entire varsity Stella a rich spoiled bitch.

" new girl out of all the people you chose to hang out with this outcast" oh yeah that I am, I'm not from a rich family, 90% of the students here are from rich families,  those who are not rich, they have connections.

You must be wondering how I got in, well I'm sort of a nerd who does not want to admit that is actually a nerd. I had good grades still have, Tom told me about some scholarship I know nothing about, never heard of it but hey! Tom is very persistent so I applied and here I am, as an outcast like they say.

Boohoo! Scree them, I am happy with the way things are, I gave peace not pretense no walking on eggs shells because I don't want to break the princesses hearts or being disobedient.

I do not do cliques that is not my style. I acted deaf and watched Barbie's little face turn red, her smoke was emitting from her ears and nose, this little rich girl gets so offended easily she will not serve long, they are not provoking her not insulting her but me, why is she offended.

I have to say the girl is beautiful, she has brownish eyes just like Tom's eyes, she resembles him a bit, it did not know that Tom is an orphan would think that she is his twin sister.

Barbie's tempers exploded, like those series or movies you watch and the most unnoticed character does the unthinkable yeah that is how I describe Barbie:s behavior she did not only rain insults and embarrassing words to Stella she also poured my Coke to her which earned her a glare from me, nobody messes with my food, the way I glared at her, the red face she had turned to an ashen one.

I sighed I have to talk with this girl to prevent things like this in the future, I cleared my throat " listen to Barbie if you and I are going to be friends, you have to listen to this, we do not fight with a walking corpse okay, no matter what do not drag you down with them, when you hear death casualt calling your name, do not respond at all we don't have  any business with the dead" 

People looked at me, Barbie was jumping up and down, she forgot about what I was saying but remembered me calling her Barbie
