She had been dreading the time to come to school the next day.

Taking in deep breaths, she tried to keep her anger in check as best as she could.

Keeping her earphones plugged in, she took confident strides towards the school gates.

A cold and unwelcoming look on her face as she passed multiple students going in the same direction as her.

They all glanced at her, breaking out in whispers when she passed.

Despite the music blasting in her ear, she felt like she could hear it all, their lips moving while they watched her every move.

It got very irritating to the point that she sneered at one of the younger years when they kept making it obvious they were talking about her.

"Watch your mouth before I rip your tongue out." She threatened making then scatter under her overwhelming presence.

She scoffed, taking out one of her earphones and opening up her locker.

"Juri!" She turned her head and saw Chanel and Chantel making their way towards her.

"G'morning." She greeted with a smile.

"Oh Juri- there's too many things happening at once..." Chanel drifted of, Chantel nodding in agreement.

Juri noticed and her smile widened.

"It's about that post isn't it?" She asked them.

"Well- yeah." Chantel answered.

"I definantly was kidnapped, thats fact." She laughed out.

The students heard this and discreetly tried to move themselves closer to where Juri was.

"Ah, it wasn't fun. Well it could've been better you know. Nothing much happened, I think I was kidnapped for ransom or some shit like that." She said, her laughter growing even more.

It physically pained her to even think about.

"How could such a traumatic experience be so laughable to you?" They looked to their left and saw Dahlia walking towards them with a couple of girls behind her, one of them being Veronica.

She looked quite unruly and truly exhausted, a forming bruise on her neck that was attempted to cover up with makeup.

"How could it not, its a once in a lifetime chance. Besides, why would it bother you? Its not like you were kidnapped." She snorted out.

"I don't need to experience it to understand the mental damage it could have, and you're here acting like it wasn't a big deal. It could very much hurt a lot of other people that had to go through such a thing." She said.

'It did hurt me.' Juri thought.

"Oh shut up and stop trying to act like some sympathetic angel. This is about me isn't it? I don't give a fuck about the other people." She said.

"This rumor started about me and it will end, with me." She said, her eyes narrowing.

"So, let's start with this. Yes, I was kidnapped, by who? I don't know and I don't care, when did this happen? Years ago, I couldnt give a fuck about it now even if I have to share it with you all, that's how unserious it was." She said.

She felt nauseous, thinking about many excuses to tell them.

She didn't want to remember, she wanted to forget, she wanted to feel like it never happened.

"What happened? Absolutely nothing, I was just driven around this dusty ass van while those bitches were trying to get money."

She wanted to stop talking about it.
