The guy I bumped into looked up , looking at me discombobulated.
"What ! you are still not going to apologize?" I folded my hands angrily.
Right now, all I am seeing infront of me now is perla.
It was as if I was in a fairytale land.
I wasn't noticing this guy at all, not even the weird look he is throwing at me.
"Woah , did I mistakenly entered a psychiatrist hospital"he scoffed.
He glanced around.
"Hamilton high !, I'm not mistaken he huffed.
He turned to me and scoffed again .
"What ,is she a psycho?. "he muttered to himself as he stared at me.With a full force ,I found myself in front of Elly , the one who has spilled my milk.
"You spilled my milk ?"I screamed and raised my hand to slap her.
she caught it in the mid air and twisted it.
Arg.
My eyes shone immediately.I stared at the guy infront of me.
When.... when did he got here?.
or is he a ghost.But he's supper cool though."Ahh" I winced in pain as my hand was twisted to my back .
God!
"What are you doing, ghost! " I grunted.
"What am I doing, you tried to slap me weirdo and did you just call me a ghost "He said grumpily and I wriggled my hand out of his grip.
Gosh!
I stared at him angrily ,my hand has suddenly gone numb."I wonder why my first day has to turn out like this " he said.
"I thought I was gonna meet with the hot ladies first"he added.He eyed me and walked away .
Gosh, what was that for,I threw invisible blows at him.something I had never done to a person before .
Just mere looking at his backside he looks hot.
I pinched myself really hard.
Am I really drooling over him ?Of course not ,am just admiring God's perfect creation.*****
Phew !I ran to the bathroom.....I opened the door and got in then entered one of the toilet.I quickly pulled down my skirt and then my underwear and eased myself .
Now, I felt relaxed .
I pulled up my clothes and sighed.I returned to the class and sat down.
Another teacher was in already, I guess I used a lot of time in the restroom .Our home teacher suddenly came in ,a guy was trailing behind her .
"please ,a minute "she took an excuse from our English teacher .
"okay ,go on "she permitted.
"Good morning , class" our home room teacher ,Mrs pershing ,greeted .
"Good morning ma'am" the class replied.
"So we are having a new student among us , can you please introduce yourself ?"She turned to the guy and wait.....
"Is this not the guy from earlier ? The ghost guy.
He came to stand infront of the class and realesed a smile .
A trapping smile.The students smiled sheepishly immediately.
"I'm Darrel Roosevelt "he winked and that sent all the girls drooling.
"Good, can we all accept and treat Darrel like one of us ?"Mrs pershing asked.
"Yeah"
"sure""Of course""You are welcome cutie ". The students replied."Take any vacant seat available at the moment "Mrs pershing said to him.
"Of course, ma'am he grinned.
Gosh!
He is just messing around with the ladies.Mrs pershing nodded and left.
He walked around and seems like the seat beside me is the only one vacant.
He started walking towards my desk immediately he spotted the vacant seat beside me.
*Why is he walking towards that fucked up girl?*
*Stand up Janice , allow him to seat down here**Geez....why is he going to that girl !". The students murmured.But does he not recognize me?
Or he's just pretending not to?He placed his bag and his eyes traveled to my direction .
He frowned immediately he saw me. "Oh what the heck ......"he muttered but I heard that.
He carried his bag and moved away to the guy that helped me removed the chair off my butt.
His seat is just three seats away from mine.
Hmmm, I wonder why he is going to him . There is no empty chair beside him .
*Please can you move to that seat ,I like the view of the board from here* I heard and I turned around .. just as he pointed to my desk.
The guy stared at me and returned his gaze back to the ghost guy.
"Of...of course!" he replied and packed his book.
He also carried his bag and then ,he came to seat beside me.
I turned to him and released a smile .
I've never seen this guy before.
Thought I knew majority of the people in this class but I have not notice a guy wearing glasses like me."Hi ...hi "he waved at me shyly."Hey....."I replied and focus back to the teacher."So,I said intonation in a sentence means the rising and falling of the voice. Who can give me an example of rising intonation" the teacher asked.
*Get out !*I gave an example inwardly.
The students raised up their hands , and wow they were all girls.
I guess they were trying to impress the ghost guy.
"Yes...you, the teacher pointed at the students.
"You are cute " Perla voice answered."That's a falling intonation , miss perla"She said and pointed to another student while perla sat down disappiontedly.
"Can I have your number"the other one said .
*You are cute*
*can I have your number*waoh ! seriously ,are they not indirectly referring to the ghost guy ?
I scoffed and shook my head.
"That's also a falling intonation "
can I have another person?"Yes?"
"Uhm... fuck you !"was that Darrel voice? of course it is.*Nice one new bie , I'm impressed "our English teacher smiled.
All the girls turned to look at him with a redened face.
God!
I rolled my eyes inwardly.*After a long hours of lecture, the bell finally rang for break.I packed my text book inside my bag and stood up.
I'm really famished.
"Uhh, you're going to cafeteria, right?", the guy beside me asked.
"I'm going to our home room teacher place"I lied.
The least I want is having a company while eating.
"oh, okay, I actually want you to buy some snacks for me because I'm heading to the the library, it's fine though "he expounded and stood up with his bag.
oh!
"Well,I might want to go to the cafeteria after collecting what I want from our teacher,who knows "I shrugged.He nodded with a smile.
"Thanks . Burger and orange juice"he stretched his money towards me.I collected it and walked away.
"look who we have here"perla blocked my way.
Gosh , not again!
"I'm..... I'm...... heading for the cafeteria"I said."And who asked you where you're going" she raised one of her brows.
why did they picked interest in bullying me?.
"I'm ..... I'm sorry" I apologized .
"I bet you are, take" she stretched a white bag and I collected it."Drop that in my seat" she said and walked away.
I scoffed and walked back to the class.
I drop her bag and walked out again .
I headed to the cafeteria and went to place my order.
I carried my tray and walked to the back of the room.
I found someone already siting in the place I use to sit down.
I can't move to another seat,this is the only seat I found a little away from the other students.
Hm!.
I bit my lower lip and walked to the seat.I placed my tray on the table and drew out a chair.As I made to sit down, the guy seating there suddenly raised up his head and.....
What?it's the ghost guy!.Epilogue ~One month later~I entered the living room and glanced around looking for Darrel. It has been a month already . That day still felt like yesterday when Mr Roosevelt and my family reconciled in Florida . We have came back to Houston and life couldn't be more good with Darrel around. Fred, I will call him Fred since that is what I know him as .The judge sentenced him to eight years imprisonment.Thankfully , the police were able to apprehend the man that ordered him to do those evil acts and he was sentenced to life imprisonment.The man at the top was also caught and he was given five years imprisonment. Dad dismissed all of the workers in the mansion before we returned, because one of them was giving bout information about what's happening in the house. Darrel asked me to come over to his house today that he has something to show me
Annabel's povMy heart thumped with excitement as I saw him.oh,my.He stared at me quietly before moving his eyes to the guy.He gazed at him confusedly and the guy scoffed."What?, you are also surprised ?" he asked.Darrel sighed and nodded.The guy began walking towards him with the knife on his hand.I quickly scrutinized Darrel with my eyes and saw he wasn't holding any weapon.What?."Darrel ,he is with a knife !." I yelled out but it turned into a muffle instead because I was gagged with a tape.Instantly , there was a black out.Huh?.I strained my eyes in the darkness , trying to see if I can detect anything.Where are they?."What the fuck !" I heard the guy cursed angrily."Darrel?" I muffled and started whimpering.Oh! lord have mercy on your daug
|•Darrel's pov•|Mom and I turned and looked at him.Huh?.Is he being serious ?."You do?" I asked and he nodded."Do you actually think there won't be an enemy for a man as famous and wealthy as Longworth ."he chuckled as he decend the remaining stairs."Then tell me whoever is behind this ,dad,I can't wait to ....""Do you really care about her that much ?" he interrupted with a scoff."Anyway it isn't something you can handle alone , infact , you shouldn't get involved in it.Leave the matter let me handle it my way ,I know exactly what to do " he added.I relaxed back on the couch and sighed in relief."Thank you Dad"** Annabel's povI got out of the bathroom to my room to pick up my ringing phone."Hey, Fred" I said as I picked up the call."Anna" he called.I could fee
|• Darrel's pov •|I knocked on the metal gate for the fifth gate .Finally ,the door sprawled open and the gate man stuck his head out.When he saw me,he scoffed and frowned."What are you doing here again ,I thought...""Please, just tell me , what's up with Annabel ,huh?" I interrupted him."How many times do I have to tell you , you can't see her at the moment , she's very...""Bullshit !, bullshit man, just tell me , okay?"I ranted angrily.This has always been his reply everytime I come here to ask for Annabel.She hasn't been in school for weeks now and I can't even reach her.I was damn worried that something might have happened.Damn worried.And, it's not possible that she cut me off line, it's impossible.Minutes later ,a deep voice sounded from the inside ."Who's there" the voice asked.He came to view and I recognized him to be one of
Annabel's pov.....*Samantha closed my luggage box and glanced back at me."I thought we are done with you getting teary every second " she sighed."Anyway,am done parking your clothes .I will go inform your parents " she added and walked out.I sniffed and wiped my tears away.I stood up and walked to the curtains then drew them apart.I stared out in the open and sighed.The morning seems quiet and cool ."I will miss everything .." I muttered.Every single thing.I closed the curtains and walked to the bathroom .I opened the tap and stretched my hands under the pouring water and rubbed it again each other.I sprinkled some water on my face and look at myself in the mirror.We're leaving.we're leaving here .For a moment ,I saw the mirror smiled sadly at me and said it will also miss me .Gosh!.I held my head in my hand and moved back inside the room.
Annabel's povHe slowly raised his head up to look at me."What's all this ...who took it, when ?" he asked .His eyes were clouded with nothing but concern .Oh, God.The video shows the part when I was in the toilet and when I tasted my urine . When I still under their bullies and when I pooed in my panties when they bullied me one day and I didn't actually thought there would be a camera.God have mercy!."Annabel, c'mon . Tell me who did this "Darrel demanded angrily.I shook my head and placed my hand on my mouth and tears poured out of my eyes.Darrel sighed and brought his hand to his head then brought it back then."Let's go to my car" he said after glancing around and seeing the students gaze on us.I nodded and we both walked to where he parked his car in the lots.He opened the door for me and I hopped in then he closed it and went around the car to occupy the driver's seat ."Now , tell me.
