We took the bus to the nearest mall. The mall was unexpectedly flooded with a crowd of people. There was a long queue at the check in point. We stood patiently for our turn to come. A bunch of high school girls came and stood beside us. They laughed and bitched about almost half of the city people they knew. Their forced giggles were intolerable. After a few minutes they pushed me aside letting me straddle on my feet and they ignoring me stood at our place. "What on earth do you think you are doing", inquired Rave. "We are standing here . This is our line now", said a girl with confidence radiating out from her. Their behaviour angered me. But I'm usually not the one who would get myself involved with petty fights with a bunch of high school students. "Oh hello bitches why don't you follow me so I can show you the way to hell. Your personality screams cheap. Now would you mind getting lost, " Rave said with the personality she used to carry when we were in high school. I was a total nobody in my school days where as she was the most popular girl boys are dying to get her to parties and later on the beds. The girl tried to snap back on which a lady came up and smacked her on her face . Even we weren't expecting someone to do such a thing. "Have you forgotten your manners Nancy or do I need to ground you and teach you how you need to behave?, she said anger radiating through her speech. "But mom -
"Don't even try to come up with any false explanations. I have been watching this entire conversation so I don't need you to fill in with details and moreover what on earth are you doing here when you all were supposed to be in your schools. I didn't expect it from any of you. You girls think you have become old enough to bunk school and fool around. Mind you I have passed your age. Now come with me back home before i disown you with food supplies for a week. And the rest of you are joining her and I'll make sure your moms get to know what their sweethearts are doing these days." She said and left and a bunch of them followed her. We were awestruck to even talk about anything at all. We did our bag check and went inside the mall expecting to catch hold of a few things . We were in the middle of the crowd. The store we entered was having a 50% summer sale in almost everything. There was a big basket that said, "Buy 1 and get 1 free."Rave and I were looking for dresses that would look good on us. Sometimes I got pushed and kicked, but nothing could change my mind. We bought two beautiful dresses for each of us, and one pair of shoes to go with them.
Rave didn't allow me to pay and said that it was a treat from her to me. Most of our time when we used to go shopping in high school it was she who paid or the boys she took with us paid for us. They were never hesitant to spend bucks on us. All they thought was having her in the bed and Rave , well she was way too expensive for any of those cheap men. We went to Tim Horton and had our favorite iced mocha latte. We were sitting and having a fun time when a girl ran into us.
"Hi, I'm Ellyn. Can I have a few seconds with you if you don't mind?"
I looked up at Kat, and she shook her head as if to say no. I was a bit hesitant, but I was curious to know what she wanted to say to me. "Okay," I said to the girl and told Kat it was alright.
She walked, and I followed her. She took me towards the restroom and closed the door behind me. "Hi, Lynn. Nice to meet you. I can see why he was attracted towards you years back. But you are a douchebag, and believe me or not, if I can't kill you right now, he will come after you."
"Wait, why are you threatening me, and who the hell are you? And more specifically, who is 'he'?"
"He didn't mention that beside you being a douchebag , you talk way out of your league. I swear no one can have such a bad taste to fall for someone like you. The only possibly good thing about you can be your body. I have no doubt you have sucked on a lot of dicks and been that slut who doesn't think twice before slipping into anyone's bedroom".
The thoughts of Lorenzo stroke my mind. He could have possibly send someone like for me. I have never done any of these until lately i have been indulged with him. But does he think I'm a slut begging everyone to shove their dicks down my throat. Tears started rolling down my cheeks engraving pathways wherever it went. I think Rave was right. I should never have agreed to come with her. She slapped me, and I slapped her harder. It turned into a fight, and neither of us was willing to leave each other.
She pulled my hair and banged my head on the wall. Unfortunately, she had fighting skills better than me. I bowed down, turned, placed one hand on her shoulder, and kicked her straight on her ass. She couldn't stand properly.
I tried to open the door, but surprisingly, the door was locked from outside. She had big nails which were a perfect replacement for knives. She held my neck and pushed me towards the wall. With her other hand, she was trying to take out something.
I was almost out of breath. I kicked her and turned to open the door with my hairpins, but suddenly I was targeted. I was placed in front of a gun. I have no clear idea why she was doing this to me.
I shouted and shouted, but I guess no one could hear a single thing. "Hands up, darling, and stop screaming like a fucking chick. Else, I will show you what else I can do. You don't know me." I could hear footsteps, and I'm sure now she is going to fire me, but all she did was stroke it hard on my head, and that's it.
All was starting to spin around me. She was saying something. Something. I could hardly hear. "Be prepared to face Him."
I wasn't scared of him but Who Is He?
