Knowing Asher

Chapter|59|

"Why were you so sure that Katrina made all that up?"Amanda asked looking baffled making me chuckle.

"I trust him and his words. Katrina always resort to dirty tricks. She said something to me during the evening party which confirmed my suspicion. If it was any other girl, I would have still sided with him"I replied staring at the field watching Rob practice. I keep forgetting that he is the captain of the volleyball team and they have their championship coming up.

"Wow girl! That was a very bold step"Lily said and I nodded agreeing with her.

"You are trending on the school group. #The brave girlfriend that put the queen bee in her place. People are saying a lot of things"Angela said looking up from her phone after being glued to it all day.

"You definitely made the queen fall from grace to grass"Lily said and I chuckled.

Someone managed to take a video which captured everything that happened on Saturday night. It has been posted everywhere on the school platform.

Katrina has been getting cold treatment since the video leaked. She didn't even eat at the populars table during lunch.

I couldn't forget the cold look she shot me in the hallway when I saw her after lunch. For the first time,she didn't have her minions with her. She wore an hat and sunglasses. People insulted her in hushed voice as she took out books from her locker. I almost felt sad for her but I remembered what she did. She tried to break us apart and that is something I would never forget. "The way you kissed Asher all over was sexy"Amanda said and we laughed. I blushed a bit not believing I did that. Why did I even do that?

"You always had this side in you waiting to be unlocked"Rose said and I sighed. "I taught her a lesson. I am sure I don't have to worry about any girl hitting on Asher" I said smiling and my friends shook their head at me.

The bell rang and we dispersed to our different classes.

"What..you.did.was.really.brave! I..am glad..to.be..your.friend"Olive said making me smile. "I am happy to be your friend too" I replied and continue working on my math homework.

"Do.you.know.anything.about.a..female.. friend.that. Ian..have?"Olive asked making me look up from my books.

I smiled internally loving what this is all about. "I have never seen him talk much with any girl other than us. Why do you ask?"

"Oh..God!..That..means..he..likes..you.
He.seemed.kinda..sad.about.the.person. he..liked.You.have.a.boyfriend.so.that.is
pretty.sad.because.he.would.never.get.the.person.he.liked"she gasped and I resisted the urge to snort. "You are also on the list so why do you think he can't like you?" I asked and she looked sad.

"He..can.never.like.me"she whispered and I watched her wipe a lone tear.

"The first step into loving yourself is to not lose value of yourself. You must always think you are worthy. Why can't he like you? You are smart,beautiful,sweet and other nice qualities. He had been dumb to not see all that qualities in you. You also don't need a person to tell you who you are. You must be beautiful in your own eyes. You must like what stares back at you in the mirror.Not waiting for someone to tell you that" I lectured and she hugged me tight.

"You.are.really..good..at..telling.people.. what..they.need..to.hear"she mumbled into my shoulder and I sighed patting her back. Who made her this way?

Who made her feel so low about herself that she can't see what I am seeing. I am determined to help this girl.

"I am not telling you anything false neither am I sugarcoating things for you. I am only telling you what you need to see and what you should know" I replied and she pulled away.
