Creating Haven

Ch 3: My secret's out

I told everything to Eliana as we sat in the cafeteria and ate lunch.

Everyone was looking in my direction now and then and whispering. Maybe they got to know about Mr. John too.

"I'll kick that bastard's ass myself this time. It's a good thing he's coming back. He won't be able to go back alive.", Eliana started ranting as she stuffed her mouth with food.

"Leave it. I'll see what I can do if he does anything.", I reply and look down at my plate.

"You think Zayden will try to do something again?"

I look up at her and then take a deep breath before looking back down.

"I don't know. I'm not even sure if he was the one who spread that rumour."

"He surely was. Who else would hate you so much to do something like that?"

"There are plenty to be honest. I've not been good to so many people."

She giggles and agrees. I laugh with her too and then we get onto some other topic.

I don't have history today, so maybe I'll be able to ignore him as much as possible.

When lunch ended, I went seperate way to my class and Eliana went to the gym. As I walked in the hallway, I could feel everyone's eyes on me.

I turned around when I felt something on my back. There she stood, Samantha. The bitch of our school. The leader of the barbie legs gang. The future girlfriend of Zayden since middle school.

"Get out of my way Dien.", she said and flipped her hairs.

"The whole corridor is empty Jones, why don't you use your mind?"

I faced her completely and stood face to face with her. Actually not, she is way too short for me to stand face to face with her.

"Sia, don't act smart with me."

I scoffed and rolled my eyes.

"In front of you, I don't need to act."

Everyone was looking at the scene. Me and Samantha had a very long rivalry too. Not as long as Zayden, but she is worse than him. He doesn't always initiates a fight, sometimes it's me too. But with her, this bitch always wants to get insulted from me.

"I promise you I'll make your school life hell!"

I raised my eyebrows and smirked at her.

"I'm so scared Sam! God save me!"

The frustration and anger was clear on her face and I was loving it. Call me a sadist but nothing is better than to see an envious or frustrated look on your enemy's face.

"Sam, let's go. Don't mess with girls like her."

I laughed and looked at Jenny, Samantha's best friend. She held Samantha's shoulder and gave me a scared yet disgusted look.

"What do you mean by that Jenny? Girls like me?"

She looked me in the eyes, still scared.

"Yes, girls like you. You may fight and act strong in front of us but I know you take anti depressants."

I stood there still. How did she know? I've never done this in school in front of anyone. Except Eliana and she won't tell a single soul.

Fuck. The medical room.

There were gasps around and the murmurs increased. Everyone had shocked faces and they were discussing me.

"Whoever told you this shit, knows nothing. And you are a bigger bitch to even believe this."
