The next morning, I woke up to the sound of my phone alarm smiling, knowing that today will be the day that I get my revenge against those two bitches. It was a great feeling to be honest, one that made me quite energetic and excited to head back to school.
I quickly went through my morning routine, trying to forget the awkward hours I spent with my two teachers that went from noon all the way to eight in the afternoon. It was... somewhat a difficult eight hours that I endured, but for some reason it didn't feel that bad. They paid for my food and everything. To be honest, that's another reason why finding an older girlfriend is better than one younger than you because they'll feel responsible for you.
Loriana had left the house while I was still eating breakfast, leaving me alone in the house. I didn't blame her because she has her job, but I do occasionally miss the times when I wouldn't have to be alone in my own house. But whatever. I still have more important things to do.
Once I left my house, Muria was waiting by the elevator door like always. I walked up beside her and waited in silence. She still appeared to be somewhat concerned about the request forms so she occasionally glanced over at me with a look that, I admit, made my heart rate increase. That slight frown on her face from the uncertainty and that tamed expression really made me somewhat aroused.
We didn't speak on the way to Lumina Station, and even after passing the ticket gates and waiting at the platforms for the elevated railway, we did not talk. It was only when we were in the train, standing face to face and in close proximity to the other due to the crowded nature of the train and grabbing onto the hanging strap before she finally gathered up the courage to speak to me. However, before she did so though... that was the real deal.
The way her eyes darted around shyly and that light blush on her face as she tried to gather up courage. Combine that with the occasional soft sigh that escaped her mouth due to the pent up frustration... it was really the sight to behold, something that I never thought was possible from someone like Muria.
"So about the forms..." she finally said after she finished gathering her courage.
"Don't worry," I said, unzipping my school bag and showing her the forms that I retrieved from the trash container in the hallway yesterday. "I found them."
She let out a sigh of relief after seeing the forms in my bag. Then, on her face was finally an expression of relaxation.
"Didn't I tell you I'll take care of it?"
"I just never thought someone like you can actually be counted on."
"I'm still pretty reliable when it comes to it," I sighed and zipped up my school bag.
Once we arrived at school, we met up with Irina in our homeroom class. The classroom decorations for our class had came into shape. The tables were all laid out with the table clothes draped over them, and behind the divider, the portable kitchen had mostly been set up already.
After taking roll, the three of us relocated to our club room. On our way there, I discovered that the decorations for the Festival had mostly finished. Well, it is a Friday already so it should be mostly finished. The halls were decorated with signs and flyers advertising each classes's activity and stores. Most importantly, there were numerous flyers on the bulletin board about the play that Irina and Muria will be in.
Once we entered our club room, we placed our bags down on the rectangular table in the very center of it, and the two girls approached me while I sat on my chair. Irina's expression was one of confidence, and Muria's seemed to be one of content. This probably stemmed from their understanding that we were saved from the worst of punishments. They may be content, but I'm not. In order for me to be content, I need to see the two punished.
"Irina," I said, handing her the forms that were paper-clipped together. "Put these in your bag. After that, let's go to the theater club and you two can rehearse there."
"Huh, why?" Irina questioned my decision.
On her face was a look of confusion. She probably didn't understand why I wanted us to leave the classroom after having the forms stolen the day before because we left. However, that is exactly what I needed. I need the forms to be stolen.
"Just do as I say," I responded with a confident grin. "You'll know later on."
"If you say so..." Irina frowned but accepted my decision.
She accepted the forms from me and walked over to her bag. Then, I watched as she placed them in her bag and zipped up the zippers. Once she finished, I was certain I was a step closer to victory. Now that everything was in place, all I need was a way to capture them in the act. They will be extra cautious today and check everywhere for cameras in order to be sure that no footage of them digging through Irina's bag will be captured.
So what is a good way to acquire evidence then? The answer to that question is simple. They will be checking the inside of the room, notably the walls and the shelves. They'll be looking around as they enter the room, searching for the cameras. However, they will be neglecting one area, and that is where the bags are located.
I had intentionally had the two place their bags in the center of the table, which is basically in the center of the room. They won't be checking there for cameras, so all I have to do is point the concealed camera not towards Irina's bag, but rather above it so I can get a clear shot at the culprits's faces.
I powered on the small camera I had brought from home and placed it in my bag, leaving the zippers on the top somewhat unzipped so that it could capture what I want it to capture. I checked the disguise for the camera and smiled as I realized that there's no way one could see the recording device from the outside.
"You're baiting them?" Muria asked after observing my setup.
"Yeah," I responded, looking up from my bag and towards her. "They need to be taught a lesson."
"Don't overdo it though," Irina said with a frown on her face.
"Why?" I asked. "They're trying to ruin our lives here."
"I know..." Irina whispered. She had brought her hands over her chest, twirling her fingers to express her nervousness. "But... you would be doing the same thing to them then, wouldn't you?"
"They started it first." I looked away from the girl, unable to keep my eyes trained on that face of hers without feeling guilt.
Irina didn't say anything further, but I know that she probably disagreed with the plan that I had intended. However, I can't bring myself to understand her reasoning. She's just too kind for this world. If someone is trying to ruin me, then the only logical thing to do is ruin them before they do me. That's it. A benefit of this is that I could set an example out of them. I can use this to scare off any potential trouble-makers.
The three of us mobilized to the theater club's room not too long after I finished setting up my trap. The two of them joined in the theater members as they went through their lines and I sat in a foldable chair in the corner of the room watching them.
To be honest, the play was quite interesting. The script was one of the better ones I've seen in my lifetime and the costumes and props were all top quality. I never realized how talented and skilled the theater club at my school was.
"How'd you think of the props?" a male theater club member asked me.
"They're good," I responded as I shifted my gaze from him back to the rehearsal.
"Right?" the boy said with a proud smile. "I made them based off of some historical and real items."
"That explains a lot," I nodded and said in an apathetic voice. However, the boy didn't seem to mind at all and felt quite proud of himself for his craft.
After about an hour, I checked the time on my phone. The time for the meeting was in a few minutes, so I got up from my chair and notified the two actresses through a simple nod of my head. Then, the three of us exited the theater club room and headed for the meeting.
"You two can head to the student council room first," I said to them after we approached the crossroad within the building. I took a step in the direction that will lead to our club room while the two of them continued in the direction towards the student council room. "I'll meet you there in a few minutes."
They didn't say much in regards to my decision.... To be exact, I left before they were able to say anything to me. I sped up my walking pace, knowing that I will have to be faster if I want to make it to the meeting. Another reason why I walked faster was because I couldn't wait to expose the two bitches. So with an excited grin on my face, I started jogging towards the club room.
Once there, I immediately walked over to my bag and stopped the recording on the camera I had concealed within. Then, I played over the footage captured until I found what I had anticipated. As expected, the two bitches had came by and took the forms. Where they hid them, I no longer cared. All that mattered was that I have the evidence now. In the video captured, you could clearly see the forms in the hands of the two girls. In addition, their faces were clearly visible.
What a joke, I thought as I watched their proud faces in the video after successfully stealing the forms. They must think that we're stupid for letting them steal it again, but that's what I wanted them to think. You'll be crying soon enough.
I deleted the unnecessary portions of the video, leaving just enough of it to prove that I was recording for some time and the video wasn't edited. After I had finished, I started towards the student council room.
It appeared as if the meeting had started judging by the closed doors to the meeting room. However, the doors weren't locked and could be easily slid open to allow me to enter. I placed my l right hand on the door handle, preparing myself to slide it open. However, before I did so, I opened the video recording app on my phone and pressed record before slipping it back into my pant pocket. I have my reasons for doing that.
I took a deep breath as I prepared myself for the show ahead.
Ladies and gentlemen. It's showtime.
Then, I slid the door open with a powerful and smooth motion of my right hand, causing it to slam against the edges and producing a loud bang in order to announce the arrival of the executioner.
