Sarrah's pov

The morning had been peaceful as I sipped my morning coffee, my parents had gone out on a business trip and I was alone at home for a few days.

After finishing my coffee I went to my room and got ready for school. I would graduate soon and would be out of school for good then find a nice husband and get married and live the rest of my life happily, that was what I had been taught by my mother. I did not agree with her but did not have the guts to do or even say otherwise.

After getting ready I went out towards my car and called out my bestie who lived next door. "LAYLA! COME OUT"

Layla came out with a piece of bread in her mouth as she ran towards the car. Layla, had been my best friend since the day we met. I remember how Layla's mom would tell us how we had clung to each other not ready to be parted. Our parents were business partners and very close friends and so naturally we almost grew up together. Our obsession was so strong that my parents were forced to buy a house right next to the Jacksons.

Even after being so close, our parenting was way different. One side was my mother, super strict, lady Hitler on the other side was Mrs Jackson, super calm, understanding and carefree.

My mother had set a goal in my life on her own without my opinion. Mrs Jackson did not interfere in Layla's ambition yet made it clear that she would live on her own as soon as she was out of college. As a result, we both became two opposite poles; while I was catered to be the good girl

I did not hate my mother for being strict as I knew what she wanted was for me to be happy later on in my life.

=======================
We chatted our way to the school and as we turned around the corner for our school we saw many students gathered in the parking area.

They started murmuring as they saw my car approaching the parking lot.

" What happened, why are they looking at us like? " I said, I felt something was wrong.

" Why are you worrying, you are so popular no one can ever not look at you. " She said without lifting her head from her phone screen.

" But there is something different in these looks, I feel the hate radiating from them." I shuddered as I made eye contact with one of the people staring at me.

" Gosh Sarah, you are being paranoid. "
She said rolling her eyes, just then I saw Cloe standing among the crowd, her arms crossed and a smirk evident on her face.

" Layla, i think we should be ready for the worst. " I said as I stopped the car.

When we are out the whispers became louder and clearer " Can you believe that someone like here could do this."

"Omg, I knew she was a slut from the start."

" You know I heard this one guy telling his friends that she had been her fuck buddy for a year."

" She is such a whore "

"I almost believed that she is a good girl. "

What the hell are these people even talking about!

I turned towards Layla who was holding a newspaper in her hands, then she turned to look at me, her eyes almost bulging out.

"What is it?" I asked her

" You would not like it. Let's just go to the class."

I snatched the paper from her hand to find something I never have imagined seeing in my worst nightmare.

" This can't be possibly happening," I said when I felt the darkness consume me."

Layla's pov

I could not believe what I saw and read, Sarah is not such a girl, she would never do that. When she snatched the paper from my hand I knew, a war has been started, now who did this will not go unpunished from my hands.

Sarah has been everything to me and I am going to be with her when she needs me even if I have to stand against the whole world for her sake.

I have loved her with all my heart since we were kids, her mother knew this so she tried her best to keep us apart but could not do so. Now is the time for me to show my love to her and protect her against this wretched fate that was coming her way.

I felt her drop to the ground next to me, no one came to pick her up and as I walked with her in my arms to the infirmary, I could feel the disgust in their stares.

I stayed by her side while she lay unconscious and did not realise as I fell asleep beside her.
