Ashley’s POVCarrying Katya back home, she is so drunk that she keeps babbling nonsense.“I-rrrr-po---nne” she slurs out“What are you saying” I say, trying to pick out her words“Ph----onnee” she slurs again, giggling.“You forgot your phone” I ask her, trying to be sure I hear her perfectly well.“Yeshhhhh” she slurs.“Let’s go back to get it” I say, walking back towards the house to get her phone.I know asking her to tell me where her phone is will be a futile effort, it would be better to go there first and ask around or check out.Entering back into the house after dropping Katya on the patio’s chair, I walk into a bit of commotion at the door.Trying to know what the hell is going on, I discover that they are drunk females trying to get to Oliver.He looks very disgruntled with them hovering over him.“Hello bit*hes back off” I ordered, putting my arms around him and giving them one of my coldest glare.Seeing the look I am giving them, they all went away after about some secon
I leave Katya’s house without telling her how she was almost harassed at the party.She is a sensitive girl and I wouldn’t want to do anything that might set her off or traumatized her, and again she doesn’t seem to remember.And people will always say, what you don’t know won’t hurt you.On getting home, I greet my dad at the kitchen after which I immediately rush to my room to read the comic book I worked for.And seriously it is worth every pain I had to go through yesterday for it.My dad didn’t ask where I was coming from when he saw me, which confirms it that he knows about the party.Or maybe he is part of the set up who knows, even if he is, I am still happy I am able to get the comic book I have been searching for.Starting the book, I lost track of time.“Ash, won’t you have dinner” my dad asks me, knocking on my door.“Dinner?” I ask, confused.Checking the time on my phone I see that it is already some minutes after six.I am not actually surprised with the fact that I hav
Waking up from the bed, I look through my phone to check if I have any message, I see that Katya has texted me of going to school with her sister, because of something that happened.Well, guess I will be going to school alone today.Going through my routine, I leave the house after mumbling a greeting to my Dad.We’ve not been on the best term since Saturday, and all about him trying to know the reason Cassy and I are not on the best term.I only picked up the sandwich and money he left on the table, if there is an agreement between two people, I don’t think it is ideal to involve a third party.In this case, it is money and food.Walking alone to school, with my thought, I suddenly feel like someone is looking at me, or more like glaring, only for me to look back and see Oliver and his friends.Only nodding as a greeting to Duncan and ignoring the rest of them, I continue my walk.Which I think angered Declan.“Seems like you and I are invisible since it is only Dee that was seen an
“I heard it is a girl” another person says.I look up to see the person, only to see that it is Mira or is it the other one.“You see, I told you” Katya whispers top me, with her look of ‘I told you so’.“How can someone kill her classmate?” another jock says“And she got away with” Minnie Moe adds.I don’t know how someone will suddenly wake up in the morning to spread such nonsense.“Who knows maybe it’s the new girl” someone says.Like get a life, I have been here for more than a month.I think that means I’m not the person they are talking about.“Ash, are you sure you don’t know about the person we are talking about” Minnie Moe suddenly asks me, smirking at me.I continue eating my food ignoring her.“Her silence means yes” a jock suddenly says, chuckling.How ridiculous can you possibly be?“Maybe you’ve not heard that silence is the best answer for a fool also” Katya barks at him.Everyone starts hooing at what she said, which of course it is true.“Hey bitch I was not talking
Leaving the house early in the morning the next day, I am able to avoid bumping into my father. With how he is doing things now, we might soon have a strained relationship, first on Saturday, now yesterday. I do not wish for that. And for me to successfully avoid my father, that means he is also avoiding me. Getting outside I plug my earphones to my phone, scrolling through my music to pick the one that will fit the mood I am in at the moment. I hear someone calling me. “Neighbour, neighbour” the person shouts. Turning back, I see the person getting out of the house that has just been moved into. Confused as to why he would be calling me, I squint my eyes which I’m sure clearly shows the confusion I am feeling now. “Good morning, my mom came to yours yesterday” he says at once, pointing his thumb towards his house. For someone who is Asian he is sure good looking, from what I’ve heard, most are good looking though. “Hey my name is Kim Jun” Looking at him with indifference, I
Ashley’s POVGetting out of my last class before lunch, I get to my locker successfully without bumping into anyone.“Hey”“Hey”Both Katya and Jun greets me.Seeing both of them together causes me look at Katya then at Jun with a frown.“I met her here, and it seems we have most of our classes together” Jun quickly explains, seeing my look.Nodding my head, I open my locker to drop my notes and take some needed ones with me, surprisingly, Katya seems to be in a quiet mood now, but I’m sure it won’t last.After taking the books needed, I close my locker, then look at Katya, with a look of ‘are you okay’ which she replies with a shrug.I don’t know what seems to be the problem, considering the fact that her ‘hottie’ is beside her, and she is doing nothing.Going inside the cafeteria, everything has gone back to normal, or so I thought.Since the three dummies and their partners are back to their seat, everyone will think everything has gone to rest.But few minutes later, as I am on th
Ashley’s POV Walking back to my class together with Katya and Jun, ‘cause coincidentally we all have the same subject together. “Was there any home work given to us last class” Katya asks me, taking the seat beside mine, and Jun bringing a seat to seat beside her. “Nope” I tell her. “I didn’t have the time to check if the Art teacher gave us assignment or not, I was busy with house chores yesterday” she complains. Knowing her, it might have been her washing the dishes. She is too lazy to do most of her homework, and most times does it in school. Some minutes later, Oliver and his friends come in, but of course not without Declan glaring at me before being pushed forward by his brother. A fucking child, like who the fuck gets angry all the time. Immediately after the end of lunch, the teacher comes in. “I know I didn’t give you assignment the last time we had class, therefore I am giving you two assignments to be submitted in the next class” she says, bringing out her books.
Oliver’s POVWhen I heard the teacher call her name as part of the group, I was actually surprised, but again, she said, she might not even pair us with our friends.Although I am a little bit happy she is in our group and also disappointed that we won’t really get close even though we are in the same group.After appreciating me for what I did in the cafeteria, which was unexpected by the way, I returned into scrolling through Twitter, to become close to her is really difficult.With her I-don’t-give-a-fuck look aura she carries.A bubble appears on my phone to indicate I have received a message.Opening it to see it was Dec who messaged.‘What do you think she is doing?’ it says, I look at Dec, he shrugs, then look at Ashley to point out how she is looking around.‘No idea’ I message back.‘Maybe you should ask her, since you seem so interested in her affairs’ I send to him.‘Fuck you’ he sends with the middle finger emoticon.“Ash, should we start the project today or another day?”
