Chapitre 35: What is their problem?
Michelle POV
Did we really make the right decision transferring here in the academy? I mean, I'm not sure if we can study peacefully here because of the students who always talk about us and putting us as the center of the attraction in the rumor and one thing notice while studying here for almost 2 weeks, but those days made our life worst because we didn't realize for ourselves that choosing this academy could be a bad thing for us.
It's way too different in music academy such as co-friendly environment, no bullying policy and many more. But this academy would upside down of our life can bring a lot of a nightmares and this friendship tradition is not what we expected it to happen. The entire two subjects this morning is such a tiring, and I can't even focus on the class because people around us keep staring and it's not funny at all because this can distract us in class.
Lovely went straight the office of Ms. Lourie since she has a meeting with her, and I think she can't say no because she is the president of the class. She doesn't have time to complain because Ms. Lourie hate nonsense excuse and if it is not valid at all. I didn't get to see her scolding her students, but I guess we didn't do something wrong yet and might get to know her as time goes by
I can't think other things, but I just want this day end before anything could get worse because I have the feeling of danger is coming at us or should I say this is a karma? We still have two subjects left before we go home. Jamie seems to be bother and she just keep writing something on her notebook. While alexis is busy producing a new song for our next concert. She looks calm and don't even care that surrounds here. My phone suddenly rings, and it's a Korean number.
"Hi, who's this?"
"It's me, Jackson Wang" – Jackson
"Jackson, oh my gosh. How have you been?"
"Doing great, how are you?" – Jackson
"I'm fine and busy with our new school"
"Oh really? I didn't know you transfer to another school" – Jackson
"Well, you what our tradition and we always do that"
"You didn't tell me that, I was about to visit you in USA, but I guess I won't get my chance to see you again" - Jackson
"Why not? I'll just visit you in Korea if I have time"
"Jinyoung and Mark are looking for your girls" – Jackson
"Really? What for?"
"I guess they miss spending time with you girls" – Jackson
"Oh, that is so sweet of them, tell them I miss all of you"
"Where is your cousin? The one you're going to introduce me" – Jackson
"Well, she is busy in her school too and handling the shop"
"Tell her, I want to meet her soon and I want to get along with her" – Jackson
"Sure, I will. Anyway, I'll call you later and I need to go now"
"Okay bye michelle and see you girls soon" – Jackson
I end the call and Jamie suddenly stood up
"Can we just go home now?" Jamie asked but I don't want to skip classes just because of these rumors spreading in school
"Where is lovely?"
"Well, she is at the meeting with Ms. Lourie. She'll message us once she is done with the meeting" I said
"Don't you think these students are too much and gone too far?"
"I can't answer that either" I answered because we're not sure whether we can focus until the end of the day. I'm hoping these students will realize what they're doing, and I don't know if they do feel guilty on what they said
My phone vibrates and I checked it. Lovely just sent a message to me and I read it
To: Lovely Fashion
"I don't know if I could go to our next class since the meeting is taking long than I expected. Just tell me what lessons have you taken, okay? I'll just study it on my own and just wait for me later"
At least lovely is not making excuses to cut classes today and she is serious in the meeting. I guess something is going to happen. I forgot my things in the room, maybe I should go back to get it and I have important belongings there that no one should touch it because it's precious to me and it's a good thing I left the important documents of my older brother since it's confidential and told me to keep it for a while.
"I'll be back, I need to get my things first" I said
"Your wallet is with you and what else do you need in your bag michelle?" alexis said
"Just something and I can't leave my things alone in the room" I said
"Do you want me to come with you? So that no one will hurt you" alexis said and she is protective. I get her but I can handle it on my own
"Don't worry and it won't take long" I stand up and went immediately to the room since I need to be a sure of it that my things are still in one piece. Especially the necklace my mom gave me when I was a little kid and that's the most important thing, I could keep for myself. Also, the diary with full of letters from my first love but I hope I left on my other bag
Now my phone is ringing, and I don't know who's calling since I'm in a rush, so I just answered it
"Hello, Michelle Swift speaking. May I know who's calling?"
"Did you take a job on a call center my precious little sister?"
I look at the ID caller and it's my older brother who always call me every now and then
"Not really, sorry I didn't check who's calling oppa"
"Have you eaten?" – derrick
"I was about to, but I left my friend for a bit since I need to go to the room"
"I can really hear the background on the call and the noise around you. Are you outside?" – derrick
"I'm at school right now, how about you? Are you at work?"
Then someone bump into me and the phone slip on my hand and I notice the girl didn't even say anything
"I'm so sorry and let me help you" I said
"Watch were you going! You idoit!" she just slapped my hand then left after saying that to me and it made me really shocked which I don't understand at all because she's the one who bump me yet have the guts to talk to me like that. But it's my fault I'm not watching where I'm walking. I just reach for my phone and look if the call is still on-going
"Michelle?"
"Michelle!"
"Are you alright?"
"Why are you not answering?"
"Michelle?!"
I look at the student bump me
She's a weird student but I can't blame her since I'm busy with my phone
"Hello, sorry about that oppa. Someone bumps into me"
"Ah, I thought you got kidnap but thank God you're fine now" – derrick
"You're overreacting again oppa"
"I'm just worried michelle. Tell me, is something bothering you? Or someone is bullying you right now? I'll go straight to your school just to complain" – derrick
"No oppa, the school is great and I'm doing fine here. The environment and students here are friendly" I lied, and I don't want him to know about it because he would book a flight just to rush here and complain. I don't want him to do that because it's too complicated to take it as a big deal and I can handle it
"Are you sure about it michelle? Because I don't want anyone to hurt you" – derrick
"I'm sure of it. I need to go now since I still have class. See you soon and I love you" I end the call because he won't stop asking question ab out my new school. There are only few students inside the room, and I just ignore my surroundings since it won't be good at all if I pay attention to them. I rush to get my things and noreline is here. She just approaches me, but others are just looking at me
"Don't mind them. I hope you girls are doing fine here and students here are such pain in the head. They won't stop doing this unless they see what is really going on" noreline said and I'm thankful I met a people like her because no one would ever do this like her
"Always be careful noreline and I don't want you to get into this mess" I said
"Don't worry about it. I have my brother with me, and he won't let anyone hurt me" she said, and I just smile even though I don't want anyone get involved of this trouble we have not those people around us. I head off to alexis since they've been waiting for me in the campus where I favorite place is.
At least my bag is still into piece and why do I feel like my bag is too heavy? I didn't bring a lot of things today or my back is aching lately. I'm still young to feel old, is that right?
"How can she look calm?"
"Well, that's how they pretend to avoid this kind of mess"
"She is such a bitch and annoying"
"Why did they even transfer here?"
"They bring bad luck"
"I know right, why they don't just go back to their precious music academy?"
"My poor baby is in the hospital right now"
"I hope they get into an accident and realize what it feels like in the hospital. I also hope they won't wake up if that happens"
That is too harsh for her to say that, and I approached her, but someone just stop me
"Michelle, don't do that and they will even provoke you if that happens" alexis said and why is it a big deal for them? They don't even know what the real story is without knowing our sides.
"Where is jamie?"
"She is still at our favorite spot, and she is eating right now"
"Where did she get the food?"
"There were students who handed her food. You know jamie, she can't refuse food especially when she's hungry" alexis said
"She also asks me to look for you. Thank God, I found you" I just gone for just about 30 minutes. We hurried back because the students might do something to jamie if were not around.
"What took you so long?"
"Ah nothing, my older brother just called me" I said
"I see, I thought someone already hurt you"
"Not, really. I can handle it myself if they harm me"
"Woah, what a brave woman you are"
"Well, of course"
"Maybe I should buy her some food and you go ahead now alexis. I'll be back" I said then I let alexis go back to jamie while I go straight to the cafeteria to buy her some food since I made her wait that long and she is hungry which I can't imagine for myself. I hurried before the cafeteria gets crowded and I won't get any food for Jamie.
***************
Jamie POV
What taking them so long? I almost finish this food they gave me and why do I still feel hungry? I think it's not enough for me to eat three portions of food. Somehow the taste is different, but I can't complain by it since it was just given by me. I hope as they come back here, they could bring me some food that I can eat. Michelle just said she will only be going to take her things in the room but why did it take like 30 minutes for her to get it.
Freshmen students just approached me and asked me "Are you Jamie Park?" they also know me and I just smile but I don't know if they hate me that much because I feel like these students hate me
"Ah yes, why?" I said and they just hand me food which made me want to eat this bunch of food and I guess I can't really say no to them. But why does a lot of students here give me food? Is it because they feel pity?
"Someone asks us to give it to you" they said
"May I know who it is?" I asked because I want to thank that person for saving because I'm starving even after I eat those food given to me at first and now there is batch 2. But my stomach is grumbling, and it feels like tangled.
"She doesn't want us to tell her name and told us just to give to you" why do they seem nervous
"Aren't you girls hate me?" I want an honest answer because I know they hate me too because of the rumor or maybe they like one of those annoying boys
"Ah…ah…not really. We actually like you girls and I guess students here likes rumor than to mind their own business" she said honestly and that convince me well. They bid goodbye and smile at me even though I can see in their eyes that they're nervous while handing this pile of foods.
I just whatever they give, and I won't wait for them any longer because I might starve to death if I still wait then I should think of myself even I can't handle these students staring at me and I don't care because this won't caught my attention even they say a lot of bad things about me because I know for myself that I didn't do anything wrong and they just hate us being here.
I see someone is walking this way and it's alexis. Michelle is nowhere to be found and what happen to her?
"Where is michelle?" I asked and she just sit for a while before she answered my question
"Bought you some food in the cafeteria and she'll be back any minute now"
That made me feel excited and finally I'm going to eat a lot of food. I touch my stomach because it's aching, and I don't feel so good. I don't know if there is something wrong with me or the food, I ate they gave me. I should it back for a while and maybe I didn't chew the food properly that is why I'm having indigestion
"Where did you get that food? Did you buy it?"
"They just gave it to me. I don't know if it is free food day" I said
"Didn't you ask who gave it?"
"I did, but the freshmen students don't to tell wh…..."
"Ou...ou. Ouch...Uh…uh" I think I should go to the clinic, but I don't want alexis to get worried about me. Is this because I eat too much food? But this isn't happening to me even I eat a lot of food
"Jamie, are you alright?" alexis asked
"Don't worry, I'm fine and I think I'm just hungry again" I said even I'm not sure what my stomach is feeling
"Are you sure about it?" I just nodded
"Why are you sweating?"
"Well, it's hot here" I think there is something wrong on my stomach and I'm holding it back
*braaaappppp (fart sound)
Ah, I can't hold it back and I hope no one smells it. I bend for a bit because it really hurts, and I can still hold onto it for a while. There are still left over on the food
"Don't you think it smell bad here?"
"No, I think I just the wind and we're in the campus"
"Do you think so? But why do I feel something else? Is like someone farted?"
"Yah!"
"What? Why are you shouting?"
"Me? No way"
"Jamie"
"What? Why are you looking at me like that?"
Alexis won't stop until she finds it out who farted and I'm so sorry alexis because I can't hold onto any longer. I'm having a stomach cramp and I don't know how much longer I can take. Michelle is taking too long and it's almost 45 minutes
"Do you think something happened to michelle?"
"We should check on her" alexis said
I pick my things then suddenly, stood up in case I suddenly got on my knees with severe stomach pain. I can hardly move properly, or I can't move because my stomach hurts more.
"Jamie, are you sure you're alright?"
"I don't know" I can't lie to her anymore because I really can't handle the pain, I almost crawled on the grass, and I was just holding my stomach
"What did you eat?" alexis is always suspicious when everytime someone give me some food without me knowing who really gave it and I guess she just hate it when I eat something that might upset my stomach
"The food that freshmen gave me"
"Don't eat it anymore and I should ask the doctor on the clinic if there is something on these food" she get the food I'm holding, and I don't have any other choice but to listen to her because she will scold at me if I still insist on eating it
"We should go to the clinic now, I'll just call michelle to go there" alexis said but I just hold her for a second and I just nodded in way of saying no. I try to relax and breathe then I can still go on.
"We should look for michelle, maybe she is waiting for us in the cafeteria"
"Are you sure you can walk?"
"Yes" I said and stand up
"Ah okay, let's go and just tell me if you need any help"
We head straight to the cafeteria, but we don't know which one since this academy has a lot of cafeterias
Because we're really going to look every cafeteria out of time and michelle hasn't texted us yet like where exactly she is and what cafeteria is she buying? Did she get lost? I'm too negative to think when we're in this kind of situation, especially students who are always looking at us and it's hard to move properly because they always look at you with every movement you make.
I don't know, what with these students and why they are prone to gossip?
I mean, I get them but why don't they just care about their own lives more than we do? It's also annoying because when this happens, like in our old school in California, I can't imagine that many students don't like us and we're always in their gossip or maybe center of attraction
"Isn't that michelle?" alexis said and point out at the corner. I think so but why didn't she tell us that she is just waiting there? We've been such an idiot waiting for her, but she is just here
"Michelle" we called her out and she heard us then walk towards us. I can see that she is bringing some food for me. My stomach is upset again and having a cramp then the extreme pain is coming to me again which I don't like it because we still have class to attend and it's already 2:00pm and our class start at 2:45pm
"What took you so long? We've been waiting for you there and you were just here without texting us"
"I forgot my bag at the cafeteria, so I went back there just to get it" she said, and I can see that she is all sweating
"Here's your food Jamie"
"Wait, just save that later because we still have class"
"Why are you bringing that left over?"
"I want to ask the doctor on the clinic to examine it because I think this is the cause of jamie's stomached"
"What? Why? Is there something wrong with the food? Who gave it?"
"The freshmen students and they don't want to tell who it was"
Suddenly, someone throw an egg at me and right into my face that smack me, and it hurts a lot. My face is very sticky, and my eyes still hurt even though it's not silly or onion
"Jamie!"
"Who the hell is that!"
"Are they insane!"
"They've gone mad, I swear"
"Why don't they just keep it to themselves!"
"It's fine alexis and michelle. This is nothing and don't worry" I said because I don't want to put too much attention to this kind of situation
"What do you mean fine! Can't you see what they did to you! This is inappropriate and I'm going to report this to the president!" alexis said and she is mad
"Don't make any fuss about it alexis and I'm totally fine, okay?" I said and please don't make this any bigger because students will talk about us again
Someone threw another egg at me but this time we saw who it was
"You wrench! Stay away from mico!"
"Gosh, here we go again"
"What is it to you?" I spoke
"None of your business! You should put a distance and you two don't look good together"
"Don't you know that you look ugly?" Is she talking about me? I thought she is talking about herself. I don't know what's their problem and I can't figure it out these students at all.
"What's gotten into you? Are you nuts? You're not even mico's girlfriend. So why are you acting like that? What a childish" alexis butt in and I just stop here
"Mind your own business girl, you should always stay away from charles. You don't have a chance at all" what is their problem? How many times do we have to tell these freaking girls that we're not close to those annoying four boys? Alexis won't even care about that Charles because she totally hates him
"As if I care"
"Let's go girls, it's useless talking to these idiots and sluts"
"Look who's talking to herself"
"What did you say!"
"I don't know if you're stupid or what. But it's useless talking to you and I'm wasting my time" alexis said
"Why are you taking a video of us!"
"Well, this is an evidence to show to the president after what you did? So, what's the point of doing this anyway?"
"You girls don't belong here"
"You should go back to where you came from"
"Were not even alien just to go back where we came from" alexis said
"You slut bitch!" she was about to slap alexis but her friends just stop her
"Come on, lovie we should go now" they just left
"What a nerve" alexis whispered
"Are you girls alright?" oh noreline is here
"Jamie are you alright?" michelle asked and she pulled a wipe out her bag, but something is wrong here. She checked what is inside here bag then suddenly throw her bag when a blood spilled on the grass. Is this a dog blood?
"AAAAAHHHHHH! AAAAAHHHHHH! AAAAHHHHHHH!" michelle is just shouting and crying. She is trembling and don't know what to do. Where did this blood come from? I try to calm michelle down and let her breathe since she can't think properly because of what she saw. I check her bag and what the hell!
There is dead rat and cockroaches inside her bag then full picture of dead dogs. Whoever did this, they must be insane, and they almost killed michelle. There is also blade inside of the small pocket on her bag.
"Michelle, calm down. Just look at me, okay? Everything is going to be alright" alexis hugged her to calm her down but it's not working because she is crying
"AAAAAHHHHH! AAAAAHHHHHH! PLEASE, STAY AWAY FROM ME!"
"I think she gone crazy"
"She is crazy"
"She is weird"
"That deserves her right after what he did to james"
"Well karma is going on their way"
"You bitches should die!"
"Jam..jami..jamie..the…ther..there..is….a…dea…dead..dead..dog" michelle is frightened and I just close her eyes for her not see this. These students can't do better things than to pay their attention us just because of that video even it's not accurate at all. She is shaking and I don't know if she can't still attend class. Here it goes again because my stomach is not feeling good, and I think alexis is right because there is something wrong with that food. But I should stay strong and overcome this pain
"Michelle let's go now" I said then I just close her bag but alexis just pick it up. Someone throw an egg on me again and this time I look around who is it then those girls over there are just laughing at us.
"I don't think we can attend class today michelle, maybe we should just go back home instead" I said but she just said no to me and still want to go to the class. We head back on the room and get some extra clothes since michelle clothes are fill of blood and it's smelly. Alexis's help michelle while noreline is with us
"Alexis, I think you should go to the clinic now and bring michelle there. I'll stay with Jamie" noreline said
"Thank you noreline and I just need to calm michelle down"
"Let's go change your clothes first before we go to our class. I think your clothes is a mess" pointing out on my top shirt. I hope michelle is fine and I didn't know these putting this rumor too much and it's not even funny at all.
I can see how scared she is and how can they put a dead rat and cockroaches' on the bag of michelle then a picture of dead dog which make her even panic.
"I think so, we should get…." My stomach is acting weird and not feeling good again and this time is serious. I just cried because pain is all over my stomach then I can't really move properly anymore and I'm in extreme pain. This pain and it was like I was being killed. I can't do anything but suddenly lay down and just held my stomach.
I can see that noreline is worried about me, but I can't do anything because I'm having a hard time moving and my stomach aches with just a little movement. I just close my eyes, but I can't ease this pain and I don't know what's going on anymore but only thing I can think is about myself because of the pain
****************
Alexis POV
I don't know where things went wrong. Is it the day we decide to transfer to this academy or the day we met those boys who want to kick us out? But one thing for sure is that we really decided on something we wouldn't thought there are a lot of obstacles coming to us and challenges we didn't expect to happen at all. Maybe we should just surpass every single challenge we face and adjust ourselves to it.
But this time, I don't know if everything is going to be alright and I hope jamie is alright at least noreline show up and help me. Could it be possible for us to survive this school year without getting into any troubles or getting bullied by the students who are studying?
If today, this is what happens to us just because of a gossip that has no truth, and we don't know what the real problem of these students is? First, they hate us being too close to their so-called future boyfriends, babies, or husband. Second, they don't like us transferring here or maybe they hate us because of their insecurities. Third, they us troublemakers because since the day we transfer here they thought we only bring bad luck or troubles when in fact, it was those boys who started everything. Lastly, they believe so much on rumors on what they truly see.
Right now, I can't tell that because what we are seeing is something annoying and might lead to misunderstanding. We're almost on the clinic and michelle is not into herself. I don't know how to comfort her but the only thing I can do is be by her side and keep her accompany the entire day. I hope there's no professor today because we might get absences on their class which I don't like it at all
"Bl…blo…. blood…. bloood"
"De...dea…dea…...dead….do….do…. dog" I hope michelle can overcome this trauma she has right now, and she keep saying blood and dead dog but there nothing on her bag of dead dog but only pictures. I know what she had been through just to forget everything but this time it will be hard for her to do it
"Mom….mi…min…ming…ming….is…dea….is…dea…. dead"
"Wah…. wah…wah…mom…mi…ming..ming…is….is…dead….dead….de….dead"
I held her and turned her to me so she could look at me properly. Michelle's appearance was very confused, and her eyes were swollen with tears. Fortunately, we are here at the clinic and one student have come out.
"Do you need some help?"
"Yes please"
"Doc, there is a student who needs your help"
"Let them in"
"By the way, I'm the assistant of Dr. Mendoza"
"Ah really, thank you so much"
As soon as we entered, the doctor approached us and looked at Michelle
"So, what happen to her?"
"It's really hard to explain doc" I said
"Tell me, what is the situation?"
"Her trauma doc, made her lost control and can't think properly" that is the further explanation I could say to him, and I can't tell him anything about the trauma of michelle, but I should since the doctor knows what best for the patient since I can't lend any help for him and I don't know anything about this doctor stuff even my mom told me to follow what I really want to do but I insisted to be a singer
"What kind of trauma?" Dr. Mendoza asked about it
"Since she was a kid, she witnessed her dog died being run over by a car and couldn't save it" I said
"So, you mean, she is scared of seeing dead dog and her trauma is being triggered"
"Does she have disorder?"
"I don't quite know about doc, but can you tell me about it by the way she is acting right now? She didn't tell us anything about having disorder"
"What are you holding?"
"Oh, this one, this is the bag of my friend" I said
"May I take a look on her bag?" Dr. Mendoza asked and I hand the bag to him which he checked what is inside the bag. He seems having unpleasant expression by looking on it and I explain it to the doctor what is the situation we have
"Is that serious? How could these students do this to your friend?"
"Yes, doc. I don't know what just happen either what is their problem, and I don't know if we able to survive this school year since we're already a graduating student"
"The only advice I could give you girls be yourself and don't let anyone underestimate you. If you can beat them then the greatest revenge you can give them is kill them with kindness"
"Thank you, Dr. Mendoza for the advice" I said, and he checked on michelle which she just fell asleep now because the stress she feels right now
"Are you girls having some hard time to adjust in this academy? If I may ask"
"At first, that is not the situation we have here in the academy. Students recognize us and praise us because they know that we're the music queen band."
"Okay just continue, I'm listening"
"But suddenly, it turns table and students start to hate us just because of the rumor circulating in the campus and we don't know where they heard that. I just can't think any other way how to save my friends with this kind of situation we have and it's really upsetting to see on how these students put it into misunderstanding and don't know what really happened nor listen to both sides" I explained
The door slammed because someone entered and it's jamie. Noreline is carrying her, and she looks tired at the same worried. I run towards them and help her to put jamie on the bed. She just held her stomach and then her whole face was red and sweaty.
Therefore, I already warned her not to eat anything that would upset her stomach or have stomach cramp. I think there is something wrong about the food she eats.
"What happen to her too?"
"I don't know uncle and she is not feeling well"
"Is he your uncle, noreline?"
"Ah yes, no one knows about that but now at least you know"
"Is she your friend noreline?"
"Yes uncle, please save her and I'm really worried about her. Actually, she is alexis bestfriend and that girl on the right side is also her bestfriend"
"Oh really?"
"Yes uncle, I didn't attend class because I can't leave her alone to go her in the clinic"
"I'm sorry about that noreline you got involved in our situation" I apologize on behalf of our situation, and I feel sorry and embarrassed at the same time
"Don't even say that alexis, it's fine"
"Just wait over there, I'll just check on her" Dr. Mendoza said
The doctor will check the condition of jamie but it says otherwise because jamie is bending left to right because the extreme pain she is feeling right now. The doctor asked what she ate, and I just gave him the left over in the plastic to check. While noreline was just watching over jamie and michelle, I was nervous about the situation of the two and I hope they can overcome it
"How come is this happening this to you girls?"
"I don't know maybe they hate us?"
"What! Are they serious? Is there something to hate on you girls? For me, there is nothing"
I'm nervous right now and my hands are shaking because I don't know what to do with my friends because they're having a hard time. Noreline hold my hand and try to make me feel better
"I don't know if this will help but I hope it made you feel at least less worry"
"I need to be strong"
"Everything is going to be alright. Why don't you report this to the principal immediately?"
"I want to, but I don't want to make it as a big deal"
"Sometimes, the more you pay attention, the more they will destroy and bring you down because they will think the gossip or rumor is true"
"Do you think that way alexis? You have no idea how many students been protecting you with this rumor and students really like your group if you only knew"
"We just don't want to take this rumor as big deal" I said but she
"Is that the best explanation you can say? Come on, alexis and I know I don't know any of your situation but I'm willing to clear to them that you're not like that"
Noreline is intense on what is happening around us, but I don't want her to get involve because they might hurt or target her too if she keeps protecting us. I know she is worried or concern about us and I appreciate that, but I don't want anyone get hurt because of us and I'm going to regret it if that happens, and I won't let it slide
"Also, do you think this is a big deal when they gone too far by doing this? They're too much and I heard some rumor circulating in the campus, but I don't believe with those kinds of things because there's no evidence. But if it is true, I know you girls have a reason why you did it" she said, and I don't know what to say to her at all
"I don't know what this rumor is about" I said
"The boys got hospitalized because of you girls"
"Do they have any evidence to say things like that?" but I know it's our fault why boys are in the hospital right now? But we didn't mean to do that way and our revenge went wrong, still we save them
"Whatever the rumor is, I still believe in you girls" at least noreline believe us and don't easily judge just because of a rumor
"Alexis, I need to talk to you and noreline you should go back to your class now or else I'll tell your mom and dad about you cutting class" that made me laugh and smile
"Uncle, is that really how you're going to put it? I helped someone and do you think I should just leave her there?"
"Okay, okay and you don't need to get mad. I'm just kidding noreline and you should go back now in your class"
"Anyway, tell me if you need anything and I'm here to help. Bye uncle and alexis" noreline left the clinic while Dr. Mendoza is telling me the condition of michelle and jamie as of now.
"As you can see, the condition of jamie is not too good because of food poisoning and I think the food you hand me is the reason because it's already expired. Can you tell me who gave those food to her?" I knew it that there is something fishy on the food and those freshmen are trembling when there handing the food to jamie
"While for michelle condition, she'll be fine after she take a rest and I think she has PTSD. She is having posttraumatic stress symptoms now. But I'll already given her fluoxetine, sertraline or paroxetine and some medicines that will help to decrease the physical symptoms associated with illness, like prazosin, clonidine, guanfacin, propranolol and others medication prescription that she would take for few days"
"Do you think this disorder will be gone as time passed by doc?"
"If she overcome, then it means she already face the fear she has even it happens again. But I cannot say anything with assurance. When anything happens or remind something right before or during a trauma is a sign of being trigger then they're usually tied to your senses. It takes months or years for you to overcome this kind of trauma" he is right, and I've been there but trying my best to beat my fear and not let it ruin my life. Almost 9 years, I had been hiding it with my friends since I don't want them to get involved in any of my past problems because I'm the only one who knows how to handle it and I don't want them to get hurt because of me.
"I think, we should go back to our class too and I'll just take your friends for now. They can go home after they take a rest. I'll just text noreline about it and don't worry. They're going to be fine but for jamie's case, she should be careful next time on what she eats because this might another food poisoned if she didn't check the expiry date of the food" Dr. Mendoza said
"Thank you so much doc for your help"
"It's my pleasure to save and take care of a patient. I didn't know my niece had such a great friends like you"
"We didn't know that she has an uncle here and it's amazing to have a doctor in a family" I said, and I just miss mom saving someone else life when she couldn't save her own life. I have reason why I can't choose this kind of career
"Yes, it is, since I promise my brother that I would take care of his wife and children" what does he mean by that? But I won't asking any question about it because it's a private matter for him
"I think I should go back now, and I'll just be back here after our class doc" I said and left the clinic. I just ignore what students will say about us because I have a future that I should look forward to it. I guess studying here in the academy is like life and death, we always need to survive and take the risk even no matter how hard it is. Nothing is easy but you should try until you strive for your goals. I can't promise anything now, but there's a lot of things happened lately to us, and we know for sure this is not the end.
The music queen band will conquer every trouble they face and never give up whatever block our career and this rumor will never going to ruin our group. Time will pass by then these students will realize what they're doing, and we won't change their opinion on what they see about us but instead we will show to them they got us wrong.
When I went out of the clinic, noreline is still there and didn't go to the class and did she wait for me? I heard, she is stubborn and never listen to anyone if that was happen when I'm having breakfast with them, and I didn't know that they lost their dad at a young age. Like what happen to me when I was 9 and 13, I lost both precious person in my life and I thought I couldn't live any longer because I've been killing myself of the regret I have and keep blaming myself for what happened. I never thought of myself, I'm still living at this age of 22 and I'm thankful for those people who stay by my side
"Alexis, what are you thinking?"
"Ah, nothing and I thought you already went to the class. Are you waiting for me?"
"Yes of course, or else my uncle will school me if I enter the clinic again. You know him and what you see a while ago is just being him. Don't take it seriously and I don't mean to get mad at him"
"I understand and you're cute when you get mad"
"Stop that"
"Don't you think we're already super late, actually we're absent now on the class of Mr. Brick. So, what is the sense of going back to the class? I should just stay here with michelle and jamie" I said and enter the clinic but noreline stop me
"About that, my brother told me that the professors have a meeting this afternoon and I don't know until what time it will be done"
"How about our last subject?"
"You mean, Ms. Li. Well, I think she'll come to our class"
"Okay, we should go back to the room"
We just walk together and noreline keeps talking but this didn't bother me at all because she is a jolly person yet funny. She knows how to make someone laugh or smile by her simple jokes. I should look for lovely, but I don't know if they're meeting is done
"You should go first to the room, and I'll catch with you later. I need to go somewhere else, and I'll attend the class of Ms. Li" I said and left her, but she just keeps calling me, but what I intend to do is to look where the office of the principal because I'm going to report this one on what happened to us and I don't know how to put the situation or explain it to Ms. Santiago
Here it goes again, why do I feel nervous all sudden?
"I think I should call lovely and ask where she is" I said
I dial her number and it's just ringing. I didn't know that Stanford high has a lot of departments
The biggest office they have is the president and vice president office. I didn't know Ms. Santiago and James have photo together. Is that possible dating the president of the school? Isn't that against of the rules? Or do they have that kind of rules? Student and Professor are dating. What a head shot to get this posted on the website of Stanford High and people know how disgusting it is. But I know Ms. Santiago had reason why she did that and dated a student
But I don't want to ruin the reputation of Ms. Santiago since she didn't do anything wrong to us and she is the one who saved us on the troubles what those boys did. At least doing community service is reasonable to be punished. I'm near at the administration building just in case I get to see lovely here or she might pass by me. My phone suddenly rings, and I answer it immediately this might be lovely, but the voice doesn't seem to be her. I check the name of the caller ID and it's mia castro.
What does she need right now? She is the cousin I can't hate nor like. I don't know, when everytime we talk through phone feels like there is big gap on our communication. I know, she made my life ruined because of how I look but I accepted her apology and everything went awkward between the two of us
"Hello"
"It sounds like you don't want to talk to me?" – mia
"Not really, it's just that I'm tired. Do you need anything?"
"Can you please help me with my project?" – mia
"What for?"
"Is that how you ask me when should be helping me with my project?" – mia
"Well, I'm not a pushover for you take me for granted just because you ask me a favor"
"Wow, when did I take you for granted?" – mia
"Really, is that how it goes for you? After what you did to me when were kids and do you think that I forgot that day?"
"That's not what I meant alexis, is just that…"
"Stop with your excuses and leave me alone" I said and end the call then block her number. Why do I still have her number on my contacts?
"Alexis" someone called me, and I look around who it was then there's lovely near at a drinking water fountain. I waved at her and then she saw me now. She looks stress and seems like she doesn't like the meeting with Ms. Lourie. She is walking towards here where I was standing but suddenly someone poured water on her make her stop
"Oh my gosh! Who the hell did this!" I saw someone laughing and I don't know who it was then lovely was very irritated at the same time hot headed because she was soaking wet. Then they went down to approach lovely and pushed her hard then lovely sat on the floor because of what these women did
"You better stay away from Benjamin"
"Don't you even come close to Benjamin"
"You two don't look good together!"
"Better distance yourself!"
"One more time I see flirting with Benjamin then you'll see!"
"Stay out of trouble, you bitch!"
"But much better if you go back to your so-called music academy! Because you don't belong here"
"You're such a spoiled brat"
"No wonder you're annoying"
"No one will ever be going to like you because you're spoiled brat princess"
"I guess no one wants to stay with you and nothing will last for you especially your relationship. I guess every guy will dump you"
Someone butt in and pushed the girl. Wait that's noreline, what is she doing here? I thought she just went to the class, and I already told me not to get involved in any of our problems.
"That's enough Carolyn and you're just embarrassing yourself here. Look at it and see it for yourself" noreline said and help lovely
"Lovely, are you alright?"
"How come you be with friends with her?"
"Well at least she is not fake like you and look what you're doing right now. Shame on you, Carolyn! If I see you one more time messing with her, you'll regret it" noreline warned her and that Carolyn just got annoyed, but her friends feel embarrassed now. But that Carolyn, just push noreline and lovely which made them both fall. I run towards them to help the two when a vase fell which hit on my head and that made hard strike on me then it made me feel dizzy and fell down
I touch my head and there is a blood on my hand then I'm trying to look up who it was because I think someone want to kill me, but I can't even see clearly, and I only hear some people talking then someone just hold me trying to wake me up and I don't know who it was because my head hurts badly until my eyes close slowly.
Mom, do you think I can't make it? Because I think I'm going to die, I'm giving up and I don't know if I still need to continue living. Alesha, I'm sorry I failed you and mom which I don't any excuses to say please forgive me for what happened today, and I can't even keep my promise to you. I hear someone calling me now, mom and Alesha, I'll see you in a bit.
