All Chapters of Once Her Bully, Now Her Beggar: Chapter 121 - Chapter 130

It was hard to act like everything was alright no matter how I tried to shove the whole thing to the back of my mind and pretend like it never happened. Exams were drawing in but so was the distraction, nothing seemed to be helping it was always one thing or the other. Just when I think I survived an obstacle another just springs up out of nowhere. As soon as the bell rang I picked up my bag and dashed out not bothering to wait for May or Kelsey and even the car that came to pick me from school just so I wouldn’t have to be in the same space with Kelsey and keep trying to see through her eyes. It was weird and I couldn't keep doing that. I booked a cab when it was five minutes to the closing time and when the bell rang the cab was already packed outside waiting for me. “Hey, I had a girl’s emergency so I had to rush home. I would see you tomorrow” I sent a text to both of them so they wouldn't be worried or start suspecting that something was wrong I walk through the front do

“She is with me,” the person said and it felt like I was doused with a bucket of ice water, relief washed over me immediately. I slowly turned around to see who it was but the sun hit my eyes so hard I had to pull my head back a little, everything looked like a blur of light, I couldn’t see the face clearly, only the shadow standing there, tall and still, I lifted my hand to cover my eyes and squinted, forcing my sight to focus. “Here” he handed my backpack to me walking closer that was when his face came into view and I saw him closely “Dylan” I mumbled It shouldn't surprise me that he came to my aid once again but how we kept finding ourselves in the same space was starting to bother me. What was he doing in the damn country club? “Don't try to cover up for her, people like her don't belong here” the woman pressed on “We just told you she is with us, what more do you want to hear?” Elliott said, that was when I noticed him and Caleb standing in front of me also. Th

“Ready to go home now?” Dylan asked after driving around for hours, the sun had already set about two hours ago and the moon and the stars were out in the sky shining brightly. “Yeah sure, thank you” I mumbled “We could go to the club and party through the night then you wouldn’t have to go home just yet” he suggested earning a look from me “A nice idea right?” He asked “Drop me off at home” I shook my head at him “Your loss,” he said “Why do you hate your house?” I asked, although it was an out-of-the-blue question it was my turn to pry. I wanted to know “Are you trying to peel my onion?” He asked staring straight at the road “Maybe” I shrugged “It is depressing over there,” he said after a minute of silence “From what you have said your dad isn’t always home so?” I asked “ Does it make it better? True. I sometimes go home to spend the night but it doesn’t change how I feel about it” his jaw clenched as he spoke “It always feels like a dark cloud settles ove

AMELIAIt felt like the walls were closing in on me, I stumbled through the doors holding onto the wall for support as I grasped a handful of my shirt trying to clutch my heart in my hands and stop the thumping in it.I have cried, screamed, and begged that I didn’t have it in me anymore. Instinctively I pulled out my phone with trembling hands and dialed Dylan’s number. It rang continuously and he didn’t pick up but that didn’t stop me. I kept on calling. I pressed the call button again and again, my fingers shaking against the screen, he didn’t pick up the first time, or the second, or the third, but I couldn’t stop myself, I needed him to answer, I needed someone to answer.When the line finally clicked and I heard the silence on the other end causing my breath to hitch“Hello” I whispered into the phone, my voice barely steady“What is it?” his voice came flat“Dylan please can you come over” I rushed out“No,” he said just like that and my heart dropped“Please I need you here” I

NOVAI slowly opened the front door and crept in quietly, the goal was to get to my room without being noticed. Surprisingly the lights were off which was odd but I didn’t bother to find out why. And tried to find the stairs in the darkness but ended up hitting my foot on the edge of the stairs“Fuck” I cursed under my breath and the lights came on almost immediately “Oh shit” I shut my eyes in disappointment, I didn’t turn around and stood there frozen hoping I was invisible “Where are you coming from?” My mom's voice rang through the air“Did you look at the time? And tomorrow is a fucking school day!” She shouted, I made her curse, and that showed how angry she was“I was around the neighborhood” I turned to see she had her night robe on already prepared to go to bed“Around the neighborhood?” She asked“What do I look like to you? Stupid?” She asked“I nev-”“Who was that person who dropped you off in that car?” She asked cutting me offHow did she see that?“I asked a question,
