Acrina got to school and went straight to her class. Luckily for her, although she was late, the teacher hadn't entered the class.
"Hey bae. How was your night?" Elliot who went to meet her asked.
"Good I guess. Do you know happened after I drank that alcohol?" Acrina asked.
"Uhm I had your driver take you home because you became really tired and had headaches." Elliot said.
"Oh. Thanks for that. Have you seen my friends?" Acrina said looking around.
"Yes. They went to the principal's office." Elliot said.
"Oh." Came Acrina's short reply. Just then, Gabel, Sinthia and Murrisa came in.
"Oh look Acrina is here." Murrisa said and ran to her. Elliot left Acrina and went to his sit. "How dare you leave the party like that without telling us anything?"
"I'm sorry. I didn't even know when I left." Acrina replied truthfully.
"And we're supposed to believe that?" Gabel who just joined them asked.
"Yes. It's the truth." Acrina replied.
"Okay. Wait, this doesn't make any sense." Murrisa said.
"Yeah, how can't you know when you left?" Sinthia spoke for the first time since she got there.
"Please don't tell anyone. I got drunk." Acrina whispered to only their hearing.
"What!!?" They all exclaimed loudly, making the entire class turn to them.
"Yes girls. It really wasn't my fault. Elliot insisted I had some." Acrina said looking at Elliot who had his gaze focused on his phone.
"Wait. Something isn't right here. You said Elliot made you drink alcohol?" Gabel asked.
"Yes. He said it-"
"Oh no." Gabel gasped and placed both her palms on either side of Acrina's face.
"What happened?" Acrina asked confused.
"I think Elliot got you drunk with a motive behind it. Who gets his girlfriend drunk just for the fun of it?" Gabel said.
"I don't understand. What are you trying to imply?" Acrina asked.
"You know what?, Nevermind I said anything. Just go ahead and learn. See the teacher is here." Gabel said and left. The others also left.
Marcelo who had been listening to their conversation the whole time, though they weren't that loud, furrowed his brows, remembering how long Elliot was in the bathroom and not to forget that he seemed really suspicious that night.
