Serendipity

◈ Co-organizer ◈

"I don't merely bully, I destroy lives, Eddy." He said with an evil look in his eyes.

Maybe he was not to be messed with.

"Wow, how unique," I said rolling my eyes.

This was my pride talking, I should have not kept talking.

"Maybe, I can create circumstances that can make you leave school. Cheating, violence, false claims of stealing name it." He was taking this seriously and too far.

I should have kept quiet and avoided him, should have just shared my list but I ignored his threat and read his list instead surely making him even more furious.

Being kicked out of another school with a tarnished reputation was not good for me and my life.

"This idea is cool." It blurted out, forgetting that it was Ashton's idea.

He listed popular songs and suggested of doing different classical and acoustic versions of them.

Before he could strangle me the death that moment, we reached the music room but then I heard the man's voice from inside, the same man who was threatening Ms. Sofia previously.

"Stop." I snapped at him and he actually stopped.

"What are you doing?" He thankfully whispered the question to me.

"Trying to listen."

And he listened with me not creating any mess as I was expecting.

"You are giving up the child, right?" He asked in a sickeningly sweet tone.

"No, I won't."

"You know what happens then, your pretty pictures will be on the next notice board."

This hateful, trashy, monstrous creature.

"I won't tell a thing to your wife." She said sounding totally heartbroken.

"No, you are not keeping the child." He raised his voice.

Before I could lose courage I moved the door handle and opened it.

"I think we have an almost perfect plan for Musi-", I entered like I came rushing here and was not listening to them talk.

They both looked surprised.

But I was more surprised to see our English Lit teacher, Mr. Nicholas standing there. How could I not recognize his voice?

Gritting teeth together I gave him a forced smile.

"You should ask permission before you enter." He said glaring at us.

"Ms. Sofia has given us permission already, it's her room," I said not trying to sound harsh.

"Do you want us to leave and continue the talk?" Ashton said surprising us all with his rude tone.

He was not hiding his disdain.

Mr. Nicholas left the room in a hurried state.

I thought about saying something and tell Ms. Sofia to gather courage and solve this matter and then I will help but she would be embarrassed and I couldn't do that to her.

So I just silently pulled my sheet of ideas and putting it together with Ashton's sheet I placed on the table. Ms. Sofia looked away and did her best to silently wipe of tears.

"We can help with that's jerk's issue," Ashton said bluntly.

I grabbed his arm almost pinching him sharply but he gave me a dry look like this was not hurting a bit.

"Let's talk about music festival first." Ms. Sofia said in a small voice.

But Ashton's bold move made me courageous.

"Nope, I will help you solve this problem first. This is more important."

"We." Ashton corrected in a sharp tone.

I rolled my eyes at him.

Where is the Ashton who was threatening me?
