Chapter 14
I looked around, while walking towards the campus. I don’t know why I was feeling tensed, by each steps I was taking.
Then I suddenly dashed into someone and my nerves almost popped out.
Vincent and Blake!!!
No wonder I was feeling strange all the time, maybe I was waiting…… I knew something disaster was about to happen.
I looked at them in pure fear. I could see rage, mockery, and coldness. Vincent and Blake were the deadliest combination…… nightmare of my life.
” Don’t think you can get rid of me that easily” Vincent sneered.
I felt the heavy weight in the pit of my stomach…… the feeling I got whenever Vincent confronted me like this.
The fear, embarrassment, and pain were combined in one powerful ball, always threatening me to suffocate me.
Vincent brought his hand to my shoulder and squeezed it so hard that I hunched in pain.
” What you did yesterday in the race field was incredibly stupid b*tch ”
” Do you think we play kitty games, Fink! ” Blake appeared in my line of vision, levelling his face with mine.
He flicked my forehead, making my forehead jerk. ” You are such a pile of shit, a walking village rag.”
Vincent squeezed my shoulder harder and my vision blurred from the unshed tears.
” Please leave me alone…… don’t start this again” I trembled out. Vincent lowered his head, until only mere inch separated our faces.
” Leave you alone????? Don’t think you can get away with it so easily, You. Will. Never. Be. Free ” He emphasized each word with a poke of his middle finger into my forehead.
Suddenly breathing became so difficult for me, my chest was constricting in pain.
I felt like I was going to faint, and I actually hoped for that to happen. I hoped I could faint and finally escape this nightmare.
He waved his hands in front of my eyes, trying to catch my attention. I brought my gaze unwillingly.
” I am here village rag…… ” he pointed his thumb at his face. Several people passed away and started laughing at me.
Blake came me and lowered his head in a threatening way. His icy grey eyes and the vicious sneer terrified me, making me tremble in fear uncontrollably.
” You are going to pay for this” he growled.
He grabbed a chunk of my hair and yanked it towards him, and I cried out in pain.
Our bodies collided briefly, before he pushed me to the ground, dropping my hair through his hands, and my vision blurred with tears.
Several girls passed us and stared laughing at me for being humiliated like this.
They looked at Vincent and Blake with their admiring and lustful eyes. Why do they get off on someone who was bullying others?
All those faceless people in the college campus were laughing, their laughter was everywhere.
It was a mistake to come here, in this Hunsberg University. My tears were spilling continuously, embarrassment choking me.
I noticed Vincent and Blake enjoying this scene, without feeling guilty. I could seriously see delight in Blake’s eyes.
This was his retaliation. My heart contracted painfully at how easy it had been easy for him to hurt me and degrade me.
I could hardly breathe, and felt my heart was beating in my throat. I hated him.
How much longer I had to endure this!?
Vincent bent down to my level, mere inches separated our faces and our breath mingled.
His nearness was too much, I tried to look down on the floor, but he didn’t let me, pushing my face up with his forefinger. His eyes bore into mine, making shivers run down my spine.
” You f***ing looser! Remember never mess with me. Cheap slut like you can never match me ” He pulled me up with my collar and pushed me little.
” I think we should stain this memory right through her f***ing brain…… she should remember what happens when she messes with us ” Blake snapped and I flinched in horror, tears escaping from me.
Blake had these nasty episodes from time to time when the anger would consume him and overcome him, and each time he looked like he was going to kill anybody whoever messed with him.
Vincent stopped in between us and pushed Blake backward.
” What are you doing man! ” Blake glared at Vincent.
” Leave it she had enough…… she is not worth our time” Vincent said in dead low voice.
” Are you f***ing kidding me…… you can’t leave her just like that…!” Blake voice revealed his irritation.
Blake’s steely gaze rested on me, and it took everything in me not to hunch in fear.
” I said leave it Blake.” I saw Vincent becoming angrier with each second. His eyes darkening.
After few seconds of silence, surprisingly Blake backed off, raising his hands as in surrender throwing one last look at Vincent.
” Alright…… You deal with it, nobody’s preaching to you anyway. When do you listen to me! ”
” And you…… F*** you! ” Blake blasted me and marched away, clearly pissed off.
Vincent’s piercing gaze held me captive, wiping away all my coherent thoughts as we looked at each other.
“Step aside, you are an ugly site to see……” Vincent pushed me to side. Facing away from me, he gave me one last glance over his shoulders.
” Don’t think it’s the end of this…… I am just giving you time to mentally prepare what will happen to you next time…… You messed up a big time twerp …… and now? It’s payback time.”
I could barely move my legs since they felt like jelly.
My moment of false bravery ended as soon as the adrenaline left my body. I felt sick and terrified of what I have done.
……
All I wanted was to spend my time peacefully away from them. I stopped completely exhausted in front of the house. I felt defeated.
Nobody could pull me out of my miserable life and give me the love, respect and security that I needed.
There were several reasons why couldn’t afford luxury for myself, I never complained to my family. Now
Being bullied does take a toll on person’s wallet.
I wanted to run away from Hunsberg University and from them.
I can’t do it anymore…… I have to leave the University…… I just want to transfer to other University.
My phone ringed, and I wiped my tears to look who it was.
” Hey Mom……”
” Oh my child, how are you doing!?……”
” Am…… fine…… mom.”
” You know we are so proud of you that you are studying in the Hunsberg University.”
” Give me here…… hello my cutie pie, everything’s ok……?”
” Yes Dad…” I closed my eyes swallowing my breath.
” You know our whole relatives are talking about you! You just made us proud darling!!”
” Thanks…… dad ”
” Now our problems will get solved, when our dearest daughter will graduate from the great Hunsberg University…… our child will solve all the problem…… you just made us proud baby girl”
” Hmm…… I will never disappoint you dad ” my voice broke, I couldn’t explain how low I was feeling, hurt, I wanted to shout, cry express myself… but I was helpless.
” Hey sweetie are you ok!?”
” Yes dad! Just feeling cold… I need time to get adjusted to this weather” I lied to them.
” Take care dear…… remember your ma pa loves you the most…”
” Yes dad! I love you too” I bit my lips to stop crying out loud. Tears continuously rolled through my cheeksContent protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
” My child, focus on studies…… don’t forget why you are in this University…… you know how much you worked hard to join this University. I know you can do it sweetheart… you are a strong girl… now”
” Yes…… Father…… uh… I think I need to rest dad… I will call you later…” I couldn’t control my sorrow, it was like I would burst out into tears any moment.
” oh okay sweetie…… take your time…… You must be tired from college… take care love you…”
” Bye Mom, Dad…… I love you people…” I ended the call because I didn’t want them the truth. My tears were rolling continuously. I couldn’t stop myself from crying…… I burst out.
They believe in me…… I am such a coward……
Why is it happening to me only!?
No Jennie you can’t give up upon yourself…… you have to face it… you have to be strong no matter what……
You have worked hard to enter here…… don’t let those ruthless bastards mess up with your life!
Have faith in God everything’s going to be alright……
……
Next day of college……
” Hey Jennie…… come fast today they are going to allot the section… I am so excited……” Harper chirped dragging me to the admission sector. There were many students waiting for their allotment. We were in queue……
” I just hope we all end up together……!!” Rose chirped, crossing her fingers. After few minutes it was our turn. The clerk gave us a sheet which had our data and section allotted.
” Wow I am in M sec……” Harper said.
” Me too……” Rose chirped and they hugged each other.
” Woow…… awesome…… we got P-cycle woho ” Harper and Rose squealed.
” What about you Jenn!?” Harper and Rose blinked their eyes waiting for my answer.
” I got B section…… and C-cycle…” I frowned.
” Aww…… that means we are separating???” Harper whined out holding me and so did I.
So I’m not going to share classes with them!???
” It’s ok it’s only for 1 year and from 2nd year our core branch will start, we will end up together… don’t be sad. ” Harper hugged me and Rose joined.
” Let’s see which branch is sharing our section, I am so excited…” Harper chirped. We were off to the notice board.
” Check M section……” Rose’s eyes raked on the notice board.
” Woah…… we share with computer science branch…” Harper cooed.
” Let’s check Jennie’s…… woah Jenn…… yours with industrial engineering…”
” Oh…… ok…” I said nervously. All rookies classes will go on industrial engineering department.
” What!? No way……” I said in disbelief.
No…… no…… that’s Vincent’s and Blake’s department……!!!
” Yeah because it’s building is the largest, so all 1st sem classes are allotted there.
” Let’s go……” Rose caught our arms and dragged us to the department.
” Bye Jenn…… we have our class way too up. We have to go by lift…… since yours is B sec section it’s on the ground floor…” Rose said.
” Bye……” I hugged Harper and Rose and they left for their classes. Their class was 2 floor apart from mine.
Why God why…… why it has to be industrial engineering department……!!!!
My eyes suddenly went towards the pair of green eyes staring me down.
Shit!
