4: the bully

(Recall)

"H-Hi!" The young thirteen year old girl chimed as she waved her hand nervously, standing beside her sister Lilith who stood still, surveying the entire classroom. "My name is Ariel Lamar and this is my twin, Lilith..." She chuckled nervously as the students stared at them in bewilderment.

Right in front of them were the twins of the famous Derek Lamar whose net worth is over billions worldwide. The school wasn't a fancy place for rich children just like Ariel and Lilith but it still was an expensive school.

Lilith didn't say a word since her name had already been introduced by her twin. She didn't want to say anything else either, so she simply remained quite.

The entire class's eyes were automatically glued onto Ariel who seemed to be the most vibrant of the twins and most sweet. Besides, the entire class had their curiosity on her body instead.

Unlike the other thirteen year olds and her sister Lilith, Ariel had much larger breasts than the rest of the girls. Despite the fact that she was wearing and a loose uniform, skirt, they could still tell her waist was small and that she had wider hips than the other girls.

She was a thirteen year old with the body of a fifteen year old already.

Lilith on the other hand had almost smaller features than everyone else, especially her sister. She had a smaller body than Ariel, but wasn't at all very skinny. She only had narrower shoulders and a much smaller waist and slightly smaller thighs as her thigh gap was mostly visible than Ariel's.

They were the exact same height and had the exact same facial features. They both had bright nutty eyes, thick lashes with bright soft pink but plump lips.

As a matter of fact, the class had already marked them as the 'cute twins'.

"Very well, take your seat where ever you like." The teacher smiled down at the twins, also excited she had to teach the children of the famous Derek Lamar. She ought to remember to give them more attention.

Ariel looked around first before she noticed a girl secretly inviting her over to a seat beside her. She smiled out and grabbed Lilith's wrist as she also noticed an empty sit there.

They made their way in-between the desks and finally sat where the girl instructed Ariel to sit as Lilith sat just behind her, at the window. It was a desk completely far from the front but Lilith didn't mind at all.

The teacher began to talk animatedly as Ariel smiled the entire day.

The two had never been in a school before mostly because their father had many insecurities after his wife had been abducted before. So his children had been home schooled their entire life, up until their mother assured their father that, since they were much older, they would easily get away from sketchy people and that they needed to see other kids their own age.

He reluctantly agreed.

The bell rang into Lilith's ears as she just finished scribbling the points the teacher was writing on the board. She immediately glanced up towards Ariel who already had people gathering around her.

"Is it true your mum got abducted?" A kid asked as he leaned onto Ariel's desk while Lilith warned the ones approaching her not to even think about it.

"Is your dad really Derek Lamar!?" A girl squirreled in excitement as she tagged onto Lilith's shirt.

"How old are you?"

"Is it true that after your mom was rescued and you were born dead then came back to life?"

"Is it true your mum used to be a rental wife!?"

"What's a rental wife?"

"Why would anyone want to be a rental wife anyway?"

"Is it true she was a prostitue-"

Lilith banged her fists against the desk as she stood up forcefully, nearly knocking the seat over its feet. She clenched onto her jaw as she glared up at the girl who asked the latter. She immediately moved from her desk and grabbed onto her collar, getting her to panic in fear under her gaze.

"Prostitute?" Lilith asked in a hiss as she tightened her hold on the girl's collar. "Does she look like a prostitute to you?"

"Lilith..." Ariel stood up and softly tapped Lilith's shoulder, trying to calm her down.

That was just Lilith.

She always had the urge to protect her family and most importantly her twin sister. She always believed she was supposed to protect them after Derek had narrated the story of how he met Victoria, his wife. Lilith then assumed the world was a dark place and swore to protect her sister, no matter what.

She also had the urge to protect her mother after hearing what she went through just for them. She told the twins she was happy it happened that way, however, Lilith denied it and said she didn't have to nearly die for it.

So it was natural she would get agitated by it.

"I was... I just heard it somewhere." The girl frowned as she glanced away, visibly shaking. "I'm sorry..."

"She's not a prostitute." Lilith hissed out and let go of her collar.

"Then what's a rental wife?" A boy behind her asked, causing everyone to gasp as they all glanced towards the back where a boy sat, with his legs on top of the desk and his chair tilted back a little. "Aren't rental wives just a sorry excuse for being a prostitute?"

Lilith clenched her jaw as she stared at him, noting to herself who this kind of boy was.

The bully.

As she recalled in the movies she had watched before. There were those smarter than average that were called the nerds from the way they looked and their behavior. Then came the popular kids, the kids with money and fame in the school, as well as the good looks. Then came the 'normal', the ones that didn't fit anywhere and were just average students. Then lastly, the bullies. The kids that loved to cause scenes, harass their classmates and cause trouble for almost no reason.

So Lilith was well aware he was a bully. Unlike the others, this particular boy didn't tuck in his skirt and his tie just rested on his shoulders with a few buttons slightly undone. He didn't look decent at all. On top of that, he wasn't wearing black shoes as recommended but some light grey sneakers with a beanie to match.

He was going to be trouble.
