The words that carry the power to transmit my already ruined day into the worst nightmare fell in my ears.
She, the person who make me feel so special the other day, the person who insisted to start a friendship, the person who made me trust her, the person who make me believe at least for one day that I can have my person was arguing with the person that I could least expect to involve in my life-changing matter
"Rudra we agreed to not do this, how come things about vera are out now"
She was questioning, blaming or god know what to the person who was in his lowest vulnerable state in front of me just a few days back
" what the hell she is talking about," I thought to myself and decide not to say it loud to figure out the situation completely
" I don't know anything about this" Rudra replied equating the volume of his voice with her as if he was equally shocked with how things turned out
"Rudra I agree that you hate vera, you send me to her to become her friend so that I can find her weakness for you to beat her in competition but we already agreed to not use this in that matter yesterday, to not leak any information about her"
With her, every word I was losing something inside me, the trust, the belief, the love, the emotion I felt within me first time, the hope most importantly, that everything in my life can be ok, my heart was dropping and my knees were pleading with weakness they were feeling
"Prachi I know all these things why the hell, you are repeating all this stuff here, do you want me to take sole blame, if you felt that bad for her, you shouldn't have told me all that in the first place, now you are trying to act like her friend, you were never her friend at the first place, you were also using her, you were saying things about her to me at her back, you betrayed her too ok, and for god sake stop saying useless stuff I never spilled anything about her and I am in an equal shock
I loose my every inch of patience and before I knew and before he could say any more bullshit I walked in his direction with fast steps and I punched him, I punch him really hard on the face
" oh my god vera, what are you doing" I heard Prachi saying or say screaming from another side
He gets up after getting punched " vera, listens you are getting me wrong "
He shamelessly defense himself, but I might have totally lost it cause I hit him again on his face I grab him from his collar
" tell me, speak, what wrong I have done to you"
"vera listen, you are not understanding" Prachi again spoke
I lose my hold on his collar and raise my hand in the air but before It could reach Prachi's face, I stopped
" why out of all people me, why me, I yelled at both of them, were you both laughing at my back, did you have a good show, when I said I trust you, was I joke to you, did you for once even consider me your friend, was I fool all this time, fool for beliving at your words, your actions, was all that was just a drama, a play if it was, wow what a great actor both of you are"
I clapped admiring their disgusting acting
My voice was way too loud that I can hear it echoing in the corridors
" you know I can't hit you Prachi, cause I consider you my friend, I never thought you could do this to me, and somewhere my heart is still refusing to believe this harsh reality that you played with my emotions, my feelings, my trust, was it so hard to say that on my face that you people had to stoop this low and spout shit in front of all those peoples.
" vera listen, it's not her fault" Rudra grabbed my arm but I pushed him
" stay away from me", I yelled, "or I will kill you "
Rahul doesn't know from when was watching all this and choose to stop me now
"vera get hold of yourself", he kept saying
" why you have to do this to me, you blame me, you were rude to me, I ignore that but do you have to stab my back like this, do you still have guts to call yourself human, so like this, you come this far, by using people's weaknesses, how low of you, what a coward are you"
I said everything but still, that shameless jerk had the guts to deny
My knees tremble one last time and chose to give up this time, and before I knew they were touching the freezing floor and my body refused to stand up again, Rahul also kneel down with me and he was continuously patting my back as if was trying to calm me down
" I don't believe you people can stoop this low"
I found him saying to both of them
I had already attracted the attention of a lot of crowds and everyone was setting their own perceptions based on the scenario that took place in front of them.
But my ears seemed as they stopped working cause I couldn't listen to them anymore and everything was kept repeating in my mind, was that all drama, her affection, her words, his tears, his helping nature, was everything drama from the beginning, oh god my head was about to burst from all this thought, I never wanted to end like this, all I was wanting to just end my schooling in peace, was It too much.
