"Do I look okay?"Flora gives me prolonged stare. "If you say it once again, I'll fucking bash your head."I sheepishly smiled."Don't give me that. You already know you look hot, so why being self-conscious?"I shrug and lean backwards.The past fifteen minutes, we were sitting idly in the parking lot with several other expensive cars lingering beside us. If one thing I would comment on this family---it was, hella luxurious.And to put a cherry on top, we were more than half an hour late. Zachariah even called me a few times which I ignored to the fullest."It's about Scarlett, yes?"I close my eyes for a bare moment before opening them once again."Nailed it. But why?""I don't know...The way he looks at her is different from the way he looks at me."Flora sighs, giving me one of her best glares she could muster. "Babe, you should be happy that the way he looks at you is different." My eyebrows scrunch and she further elaborates, giving me her full attention. "Remember I told you,
“Just hurry and eat up, honey.” Mom said as I came dashing towards the kitchen. Grabbing a piece of bread I took a huge chunk of it. “I’ll be late today because I’ve got some clients to handle.” She said, as she picked up her bag from the sofa. I hummed. Giving me a kiss on the forehead she rushed out after saying her goodbyes.“Will you ever stay?” My voice echoed in the house which was now empty.We lived in a two story house which was small but homely. Shaking my head, I grabbed my backpack, car keys and phone and rushed towards the door.Today was the first day of the senior year. Was I nervous? No.Zooming through the empty roads of the neighborhood in my Audi Q5, I passed through the roads where the richest people lived. Those houses more like mansions were beautiful. Worth drooling.Humming the song that played in my car I stopped infront of the huge brown entrance, door. Honking a few times, I waited.Soon my bestfriend came running out and took a seat next to me, her strawber
A week had passed since the incident, that happened with the girl in the hallway.And honestly I was pissed. Pissed at the people who had uploaded the videos of me tormenting the poor girl, it showed that I was the bad one. And I was proud. Proud to be the one too teach her a lesson.Poor girl, my ass.But right now I wanted to get away from the weird fruity smell that invaded my nose. “Can you be quick with whatever you have to say?” I impatiently asked the man who sat on the comfy leather seat infront of me, only the big oak table separating us.“Miss Celestina Vidal, you cant keep doing this, we may expel you this time.” The man in the suit, also known as Julian Romero the headmaster said whilst fixing his expensive blue checkered tie. “Oh please, I didn’t even do anything.” I scoffed, as I leaned back on the wooden chair which had been giving me aches from the past few minutes.“This time you have not only bullied that girl but also told her too kill herself. Miss Vidal this issue
To be honest the ongoing lecture was shitty just like the teacher.“Proceed to page 5.” She spoke, her long ankle length skirt looked like she was a grandma even though she was just in her mid thirties. Freak, I must say.“Psst.” The guy from behind me spoke. Ignoring, I kept my focus on the stupid book. “Psst, listen.” Shrugging him off once again, I kept my cool. He tapped his pen on my shoulder, “sexy just listen.”Turning around I saw Tyler Jones. The typical cliché boy who slept with every single girl. “The fuck is your problem?” I lowly hissed. “Give me a pen.”Scowling at him, I gave him a middle finger and turned towards the teacher.Her front was towards the board, she kept on writing and spoke at the same time, something about chemicals. “When you react nitric acid with calcium hydroxide it forms a compound called calcium nitrate and water. This reaction is a redox reaction and can be explosive at times.”“Pen, pen, pen.” He chanted like a pre-school kid. “Shut up Jones.” I
“Are you sure you don’t wanna join the cheer club?” Stacy asked.We all were seated with our food on the trays. “I don't know Stac, I have actually no idea.” I sighed. She took a sip of her cranberry juice, her eyes lingering at my face with confusion, “you were there it in the last year, why not now?"How could I tell her that I quitted cheer practice just too get in the skating club.“I’ll give it a thought.” I said making her smile.Flora was still nowhere seen, probably out there with that jerk, Nick.“Why are they so hot?” Ava questioned, resting her chin on her palms. “Who?” Marcus asked.“Them.” She pointed out to the table in the far corner towards the window. Marcus turned around. His face immediately turned into a frown. “The nerds?"“Yes, they all look so yummy.” She said dreamingly. He looked back at us with his frown deepened. “What’s with that look, Marcus?” I asked him. “They are fucking cheaters.”“How so?” I questioned. My eyes drifted at there table. One of the boy
Have you ever experienced that moment when you want to bash someone's head so hard until they bleed? Yeah that's how I felt right now.Looking at my Mathematics teacher, he wore a disappointed expression. “Look Celestina, I would be very straightforward with you, if you wont get good grades than you would never graduate.”Anything but a disappointed expression. I fucking hate it. It makes me feel low.I scoffed. “What do you want me too than?"“I suggest you too study. If you cant, than we can get you a tutor. We have excellent students who are tutoring for extra credit hours but you’ll have too figure out which one suits you better ” He said, making me roll my eyes in response. “No thankyou, I don't want any of your pathetic help.”“Celestina I suggest you too co-operate with me and also fix your manners. If you cant than I have no choice but too call your mother for this issue.” He ended his sentence. I was fucking seething. How dare he drag mom into this. It’s my fucking life not h
Sitting in the garden with a book in my hand and a pair of airpods plugged in my ears was the best combination.Hometown smile by Bahjat bursting in my ears.My eyes kept on scanning the lines until it was dark enough to go back inside. Lifting myself off the swing, I hurriedly went inside towards the kitchen.Skipping through some cupboards, I came across my fathers favorite cupboard.He used to lock his food in it since me and my mother always liked to steal and than devour it. He had the best taste in everything. His cooking was just extra. Sighing I brushed past it. Sadness washing over my features once again.Grabbing a pack of Doritos and a glass of cranberry juice, I strided back to my room. I sat down on the overused bed making myself comfortable in it. Placing my laptop on my lap, I played an episode of Stranger Things. If you haven’t watched that show than you live under a rock, my friends. Munching on my Doritos I started to watch it. Hours later, I had finished the whole
A week had passed in a blur. In which either I was on the bed or I was in the bathroom with my head in the toilet. Yuck. Yeah you guessed it right, I was throwing up everything I was eating. I felt great. My mother hadn’t come back home, she just texted me saying that she was on a business trip with the client. Just like always she wasn't there to treat my disease.Sighing, I got off from my car and leaned against it for a minute, my head still spinning from all the vomiting. I hadn’t ate much since my stomach was contracting painfully from inside but I had to endure it. Endure all of it just like before. Before I could walk, a pair of arms engulfed me in a tight hug making me flinch hard. They immediately retracted their arms and stood infront of me. “I’m sorry!" I looked at the intruder and saw Flora standing with a frown on her face. “Girl, you look horrible.” She fake gagged. “I know that already.” I sighed and grabbed my backpack from the passenger seat. “Rough weekend?"We bot
