Chapter 24 Broken trust
Bethy has been shooting me glares ever since I won in the beauty pageant, which is about 5 days ago.
I had kept an eye on for Milton since the day we had dinner together.
He`s suspicious, really suspicious, he definitely knows something about Sean that I don`t know...
Oscar and I had been doing very well, until yesterday....
He broke my promise and told one of his friends my cripple identity, and now, about half of the school already know I`m a so called cripple.
Ha ha, I am so bad at keeping secrets, should`ve known this is going to happen, I never think about the consequences after my actions, I should really work on that, these small mistake could get me in big trouble one day, big trouble...
Sean doesn`t seem to think a lot about Milton, he`s still friends with him, and he`s spending more time with him than with me, that`s what saddens me.
What just like what I said before, as long as he`s happy, how many times have I said that already? 3 times? 4 times?
I don`t trust Oscar as much as before now, I don`t trust anyone now, anyone but Sean.
There is still 4 days before returning to Peri High, just let those 4 days pass quicker, I don`t want to spend another minute in this ..... untrustworthy school.
"Hey you."
I closed my locker and looked back, "Yes? "
A boy from class 3 was standing in front of me.
"You`re the cripple everybody talks about right?"
This again...it`s the 4th time today.
I sighed, "Yes...."If you discover this narrative on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the violation.
He sniggered, "And you`re still so cheerful and positive, not everything in this world is rainbows and unicorns! " he said as he shoved me on my locker.
I know that....
"H..Hey! "
The boy flinched, "Oh it`s just you..."
I looked at my left and saw my friend, Oscar.
I can`t call him my friend anymore, he betrayed my trust.
So, let me correct my sentence from just now.
I looked to my left and saw a boy, Oscar.
"Leave her alone! " He yelled, "Or I`ll call a teacher! "
The boy gave him a disgusted look and turned away.
I brushed the imaginary dust off my skirt and locked my locker.
"Millie..."
"Oscar, just leave me alone alright? I just need to survive this four days than I`ll go back to my old school." I said.
"That`s exactly why! You only have 4 days left! " he said.
I took a deep breathe and walked away with my backpack.
"Please, I`ve lost too much trust."
Oscar said nothing then.
I walked down the stairs and found Sean by the stairway.
"Hey! Sean! " I said, rushing down faster.
"Millie?" He turned.
" Sean! I was wondering if you have time to go to the boba tea with me after school! " I smiled.
"Oh... About that, sorry...but Milton already asked me to hang out with him at the gaming center. " he replied, looking at his shoes.
"O..oh, it`s fine, go ahead, have fun! " I said, forcing out my most realistic smile.
"Thanks! I will, speaking of that, I`ll be meeting him at 5, so , see you in the dorm! Bye! " he said, waving his left hand.
I waved hand, keeping my smile until he leaves.
Yeah... He keeps saying that for the past few days, Milton this, Milton that...
I sighed and walked back to my dorm.
Things just gets worse here, maybe...all will get better when I go back to Peri?
No... I can`t forget the bullies... They`re going to make my life a living nightmare.
****************
Too make things worse, I accidentally spilled my drink on Sean`s switch.
I facepalmed myself, and made a call to Sean.
I waited a while until Sean accepts the call.
"Hey uhh Sean?"
"Yeah?"
"I...accidentally spilled my drink on your switch...."
"Oh....it`s fine, I`ll just buy another one."
"Oh okay, sorry again, I owe you one."
" Nah, I still owe you more."
Both of us laughed, "yeah.. You can go back to having fun with Milton now, see you back at the dorm! "
"Bye! "
I hanged up, a stone is lifted off my shoulders.
I grabbed the TV control and opened the TV.
But of course, they was nothing interesting for me to see, the news were all about government related things, which I will close the instant I see or hear it.
I took a shower and closed the lights.
It took me some time before drifting off to sleep.
Today , just like any past days, is terrible.
I don`t like this, I don`t like this at all.
Just let this end quicker, so I can suffer less.
