Name your price!

He hauled me to a corner at the end of the classroom. My mind was at ease because I know he won't dare to hearm me in the school premises, though he might torture me that would not come directly. 

"Where is it?" He inquired

"What?" I answered with the same manner

"Your phone" he replied and I chuckled

"What do you wanna do with it?" I asked deluding not to know

"Delete the footage now! He ordered

"Excuse me, Mister, it's my choice to decide whether to keep the footage or not" I retorted.

"Fuck" he cursed while caressing his hair in frustration

"Name your price?" He suddenly blurted out

"Pardon?" I mumbled

"Isn't it obvious? You are doing this because of money. Name your price and delete the footage but I'll make sure you lick my ass, begging for forgiveness" he said

What the hell? What does he mean I'm doing it for money? We may not have money but that doesn't make me cheap! I was hoping he would beg for forgiveness! Fuck! 

"I've heard about you but choose not to acknowledge it. Where is your conscience? Oh, you think you can buy me with money! Hell no! I was .." I replied but was cut off by him

"What do you mean? Oh, you thought I didn't know? Your mother owns a small chicken shop! Why don't you think of what the money would do for your family and accept my offer when I'm still trying to be nice? Take the money and let your family out of poverty" he added

Fuck! I wasn't expecting that from him! What if he succeeded in raping me and taking the video? Would I be here standing with him? Oh, probably, I would have committed suicide as he wanted and he would be glad to have won the game, jeez!

"How many girls have you raped and videoed?" I asked

"What does that need to do with the situation on the ground?" He retorted

I felt like strangling him! I wasn't planning to release the video but if he frustrates me then imagined, I may let the world see the real Identify of Ryan Miller, the president's youngest son

"You were intending to release the tape to the world if you succeeded in capturing me right?" I asked again

"Stop asking me questions and name your price" he yelled

"How much do you want? Five hundred thousand dollars? One million dollars? Five million dollars? Name your price bitch!" He screamed while I flinched

"Will you keep your rotten mouth shut? Stop shouting at me, idiot!" I also yelled at me

"If you succeeded in raping me, would I be begging you to name your price? I'm not one of your harlots! Stop yelling at me!" I added and wanted to take my leave when I felt his hand dragging me back

"Who sent you? My father's opponent? How much did he pay you?" He whispered, trembling already

I thought he was known to be the almighty Ryan Miller, why was he trembling? Something is wrong somewhere but I'm less concerned with that anyways

"I'll offer you listening ears when you realize this isn't about money but about self-worth," I said and left for the classroom.

Nincompoop! I wish the teacher isn't yet I'm class, I came to school early to avoid humiliation, I hoped

I entered the class and fortunately, the teacher wasn't in class. The students were gossiping but I felt less concerned. I was getting used to it, I reckoned

"Where have you been?" Laura asked and sat beside me

"I heard Ryan came to the class and pulled you out, what transpired between both of you" she added

"Nothing much, just a little game between us" I replied

"What do you mean by that? I don't think I understand that statement" she responded, and fortunately, the teacher entered the class before she could ask another question

★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★

It already breaks time! How time flies.

The majority of the students have left for the cafeteria. Only a few are left in the classroom, doing classwork or some other things.

"Ain't you gonna eat lunch," Laura asked

"I'm fine babe, you can go ahead" I replied

"Nope! I want to eat with my new friend for the first time" she pouted

"Next time Laura" I assured her

"Is it about money? Don't worry, I will handle the payment" she said

"It's not about money Laura, I can afford to pay for my lunch" I talked

"Let's go and eat," she said, giving me her cute puppy face and I agreed.

"Yay! It worked on you" she screamed

"Jeez! It may not work next time" I replied

"It's been a long time since I've eaten at the cafeteria. I always prefer reading in the library during the lunch period" she explained

 I was trying to save my lunch money for my brother's coming birthday, but I've no choice but to spend it today. A day's lunch won't stop me from getting him a gift,right? My mom can afford to give us lunch and I don't want Laura to pay for my meal. I hate being indebted! 

We entered the cafeteria, it was bigger than I thought. It looked like a five-star eatery! Never knew Crystal high had something like that! 

I almost cried when I checked my purse. I'm sure the food would cost a fortune. I hope all my savings won't vanish because of a meal. I stared at Laura, who was giggling about having lunch together. Fuck! She would be disappointed if I backed off at this moment! She may even loath me for that! I cried inwardly.

We got our food and started eating when the student started screaming! Jeez! Must the screem at any slightest thing? Some were leaving the food behind and running to the cafeteria entrance.

"What do you think is happening?" I asked Laura

"I don't know, probably one of the school's hottest guys come to the cafeteria" she replied

"Oh, we have hot guys in this school?" I asked nonchalantly while she looked amazed

"Don't you know? Ryan and his friends. They were regarded as the school's hottest guys. The funniest part is they have their class and don't eat in the cafeteria, rather than their mini dining" she explained

"Fuck! A lot is happening in this school" I replied, then noticed a male figure in front of me, the screaming had died down.

I looked up and saw Ryan standing, he was shooting me some awful glance.

"We have to chat," he said

Oh no! Not again!!!
