Destined to be together

Chapter 7

"You were here all night, what did you do?"

"What do you mean? "I asked her not understanding what she was trying to say.

"I was working."

"Everyone knows what kind of work you do bitch" she gave me a hard push on the shoulder.

"Did you fuck him?"

"What?
What are you talking about?"

I don't have the energy for any new drama.

"Don't act dumb." her voice filled with venom.
"We know how you got the internship."
"We know what sluts like you do to get a successful man."

She gave me another hard push.
I stumbled at the sudden force.
She gave a small smirk.
I could feel other students' gaze on me filled with disgust.
She picked up the water bottle from the table and suddenly threw the water in my face.

"Stay the fuck away from him you bitch."

I could hear others laughing pointing at me.
I was shocked.
I didn't know what to feel or how to react.
I wiped my face with my top sleeve. I picked up my bag and went out of the room.

The laughter in my back was like poison in my ears.

I went straight to the washroom and shut the door.
I sat there in silence.
All the harsh words of my father, of Angelina, of Mr. Martínez, crossed my mind.

I could feel their disgust in me.

I sat there for a long time in silence then I picked up my bag slowly opened the hidden compartment and took out a razor blade.

I have been carrying this for a long time with me it's time I use it for good.

No other thought crossed my mind.
Only the voices in my head talked to me.

Do it, do it.

You know you want to do it.

If you do it you will be free.

You will be free once and for all.

You will be in peace.

They say you are worthless and coward, prove them wrong.

Prove to them how brave you are.

I slowly folded the sleeves of my arm.

Suicidal thoughts have crossed my mind numerous times before but this time it was different.

I was determined this time.

I wanted to set myself free.

I wasn't scared this time.

Rather I felt courageous.

I didn't shred a single drop of tear.

I didn't flinch at the boldness of my own thoughts.

Do it.

Do it.

Do it.

This time my inner demon was successful to convince me.

I brought the blade close to my hand and pushed it hard to slit my wrist.

I was walking towards my office when my feet came to a halt in front of the conference room.

April's bright face under the golden sunlight flashed back in my head.

I turned the doorknob and walked inside.

One of our employees was handing out some work to the students.

They stood up looking at me.
I gave a quick nod in acceptance and asked them to sit.

My eyes roam around the room but failed to find the face I was searching for.

"Is everyone present here?" I asked giving a cold glare to the students.
"No sir. April hasn't come yet" one of the girls said.

"Okay, you all continue." I left the room and came to my office.

Anger started to build up within me.

"I behaved well with her, appreciated her work and she thought she could have it her way?" I thought to myself clenching my jaw.

She proved again why she doesn't deserve to be treated well.

She proved again how worthless she is.

I threw my coat on the chair and opened my laptop to start my work.

I don't have any time to spend on useless, stupid people.

I got so much consumed in my work the thought of April slipped my mind.
