Chapter 10 - decision

Chapter 10 : decision

As the speaker announced their immediate presence required in the principal's office, Alex expressed his confusion and uncertainty. "I... I don't know. I just know that if my parents find out about all the chaos here... it would be even worse," he said, his voice trembling slightly

As the announcement blared through the speaker once again, urging Alex and Robert to go to the principal's room immediately, the group realized they had no time to continue their discussion. Sarah suggested that they make a choice quickly and head to principal's office. Robert let out a heavy sigh, realizing the urgency of the situation, and headed towards the library entrance. Alex, uncertain but feeling compelled to follow, joined Robert.

Cindy watched as her two male friends walked away and quickly followed them, with Sarah and Emily following suit. As Robert, who had taken the lead, pushed open the library door to step outside into the real world again, they encountered the librarian, who made a snide comment. "Already finished? Don't forget to take your birth control pills, girls. These guys only want to satisfy their desires and aren't ready to be fathers," she said with a dirty-minded tone.

Something snapped within Robert. Overwhelmed by his current emotions and the weight of the situation, he turned back and responded sharply, "If you can't say anything nice, just keep your mouth shut and put your dentures on, aunt." With that, he stormed out of the library, and Alex, Cindy, Emily, and Sarah quickly followed, leaving the librarian in shocked silence at the unexpected retort.

The group continued on their way to the principal's office, their minds racing with uncertainty about what awaited them there and the decisions they needed to make.

As they walked towards the principal's room, Cindy made a determined effort to talk to Alex, hoping to convince him not to lie. She understood that lying would only make the situation worse and wanted to help her male friends in any way she could. She called out to Alex, her voice filled with concern, "Alex... please, don't lie. You know that everything will only get worse if you do."

Alex remained silent, his mind consumed by conflicting thoughts and emotions. He understood Cindy's point of view, but he also felt the weight of the potential consequences of telling the truth. The uncertainty and fear clouded his judgment, making it difficult for him to make a decision.

The corridor was filled with students from various grades, and as Alex, Robert, Cindy, Emily, and Sarah made their way through, they became the center of attention. The mocking gazes, giggles, and laughter of their peers surrounded them. Some students took pictures, while others openly laughed and made derogatory comments.

A group of male students, sensing an opportunity to humiliate and belittle Robert, approached them. One of the boys in the group started a conversation with his friend, loud enough for everyone to hear, "Hey, guys, do you think we've met a superstar here?" They all laughed, reveling in their cruel jokes. The leader of the group then added, "What kind of superstar? A porn star! Hahaha!"

The corridor fell into a brief silence, and the tension grew palpable. Before Robert could respond, the same boy continued his taunting, "Rob, I've never worn Burches Romeo... Can I borrow one from you? But please, not the one you've peed on or jerked off in!" The corridor erupted in laughter, amplifying the humiliation Robert felt.

Taking a deep breath, Robert pushed through the group, determined not to let their words affect him. Alex, Cindy, Emily, and Sarah followed closely behind, offering their support in the face of the ridicule. They understood the cruelty of their peers' words and remained resolute in their determination to overcome the challenges they faced.

As they walked through the crowded corridor, Robert led the way with a mix of anger, humiliation, and embarrassment etched on his face. Emily walked by his side, offering silent support, while Alex trailed closely behind, his eyes fixed on the ground. He could feel the burning sensation on his cheeks, aware of the gazes focused on him and the whispers of the word "underwear" echoing all around him.

The atmosphere in the corridor was charged with laughter, mocking comments, and the unmistakable sense of being objectified. Alex couldn't help but notice how some girls deliberately looked at his crotch, their eyes filled with amusement or curiosity. It was a constant reminder of the gossip and speculation surrounding the stolen underwear incident.

Feeling increasingly uncomfortable, Alex averted his gaze, avoiding eye contact with anyone around him. He knew that many of his male peers were relishing in their embarrassment, finding amusement in the chaos that had unfolded. It was difficult to ignore the laughter and derogatory comments directed at them, but Alex tried his best to block out the noise, focusing on putting one foot in front of the other as they made their way to the administrative room.

Sarah walked on his left side, her presence providing a sense of solidarity, while Cindy walked on his right, her eyes filled with concern. Together, they formed a protective shield around Robert and Alex, navigating through the sea of judgmental stares and hurtful words. Despite the challenging environment, they remained united, determined to face whatever awaited them in the principal's office and seek justice for the injustice they had experienced.

"What!?" Alex's heart sank as he felt a sudden, forceful tug on his waist from behind. In an instant, his pants were jerked down, the belt coming loose from its lock, and his school pants slid down to his thighs. Shocked and mortified, he quickly reacted, using his hands to grasp his pants and prevent them from slipping further down his legs.

The corridor erupted in a mix of surprised gasps, shocked exclamations, and a chorus of laughter. Many students, both girls and boys, witnessed the embarrassing incident unfold before their eyes. Alex turned around to face the person responsible, and his eyes locked with the same guy who had taunted Robert earlier, wearing a smug and malicious grin on his face.

The realization hit Alex like a wave. It was a deliberate act, a calculated move to further humiliate him and add to the chaos that had already consumed their day. Anger surged through his veins, mixing with his overwhelming sense of shame and vulnerability. He wanted to confront the guy, to demand an explanation for his cruel actions, but he also knew that retaliating would only worsen the situation.

Robert's protective instincts kicked in as he witnessed the humiliating incident that had befallen his best friend, Alex. Fueled by a mix of anger and concern, he swiftly turned back and sprinted towards the guy responsible, his adrenaline pumping. In a swift motion, he pushed the offender with such force that the guy stumbled and fell to the floor.

"What the hell is wrong with you?!" Robert seethed, his voice filled with anger and frustration. His focus shifted back to Alex, who stood shocked and vulnerable, trying to recover from the embarrassing ordeal. Robert wasted no time in helping his friend, reaching out to grab Alex's pants and quickly pulling them up to his waist, making sure everything was in place.

Meanwhile, Cindy, witnessing the whole scene, acted instinctively. She stepped forward, shielding Alex's exposed body from the prying eyes in the corridor, and fiercely called out to the onlookers, demanding they turn away and not take any pictures. "Turn away!!! Stop!!" she roar, Emily and Sarah joined in, providing additional support and protection for Alex, ensuring he had a sense of safety amidst the chaos.

After Alex adjusted his pants back, Robert stormed towards the guy on the floor, his anger evident as he tightly grabbed the collar of the guy's shirt. "What the hell do you think you're doing?!" Robert seethed, his face red with anger.

The guy maintained his playful smile and responded, "Just wanted to see if Alex also wears blue trunks..." He burst into laughter, unfazed by Robert's aggression. In a loud voice, he added, "But today it's white! Can anyone capture it on camera?"

The corridor erupted with laughter and giggles, as the mocking comments spread among the onlookers. Robert's fists clenched even tighter as he contemplated delivering a punch to the guy's face, wanting to teach him a lesson.

With a smirk, the guy goaded Robert, daring him to throw a punch and create yet another scandalous story for the teachers. "Go ahead, punch me! If you want more drama to discuss with the teachers, I'm right here!" he taunted.

Hearing those words, Robert's anger intensified, but he realized that resorting to violence would only escalate the situation further. He reluctantly released his grip on the guy's collar, dissatisfied with the outcome, and walked back.
