Chapter 5

School days began to drift quickly, it was normal but I know that Monica would never let go what happened because she got in trouble with her parents and the principle for what she did. She'll get revenge for that but I'm not afraid of what she'll do or what she'll say because I actually don't give a single fuck. Michael didn't ignore me but didn't bother me at the same time. Whenever our gazes met he smiled at me and i would return the smile. No more and no less.

It's been a month since I've been in this school, everything is pretty normal and I didn't get myself in any troubles or fights. I avoided everyone who want to get near me and for my luck Monica threatened anyone that whoever gets near me she'll turn his life a living hell, I actually was glad because I didn't want anyone to bother me.

Today I decided to walk to school because I left the house and I was pissed off at Emily. She's really getting on my nerves, in front of father she acts like an angel and when he's gone she start her usual drama and turns into a bitch. She knew about my tattoos and she's threatening me to tell father. I'm not afraid of his reaction but I don't want to disappoint him or anything.

For my bad luck, when I was walking to school two guys where walking toward me. One of them nudged the other when he saw me.

"Hey cutie why are you alone." One of them said.

I didn't reply I continued walking but one of them grabbed my wrist and pulled me back roughly.

"When I'm talking to you, you should reply. Bitch."

"Fuck off" I said and started walking again but the second grabbed me by my waist and tightened his grip around me. I was furious. How dare they touch me?

I stepped on his feet with all my force and when his hands left my waist I turned back and punched him in his face then I kneed him in his balls. He was on the floor crying in pain. The other one slapped me across the face and punch my cheek, when I recovered from the punch I was on the floor and beside me was a tall piece of wood, I took it in my hands and hit him in his head with all my strength and he collapsed on the floor. The other one was trying to stand again and he grabbed me from my tall braid, I managed to break free and hit him also in the head with the wood. I checked their pulses to know if they were still alive, thanks god they are. I checked my watch and grabbed my bag. Shit. I was late for school. I ran toward the school and through the hallways. When I entered my first class, which was math everyone's eyes where on me and I heard some gasps. The teacher was shocked her self. I was surprised by their reaction. What's wrong with people today?

"Oh my god Annabelle what happened to you darling?" The teacher said.

I looked down at my self and ... Oh shit. I forgot to check myself before coming to class. My clothes were a wreck, my braid was messy and my shirt was torn and the jacket also, my black jeans where all dusty and dirty.

"Ahh... Ermmm... Ehh" I couldn't come out with an excuse or a lie. I actually can't lie.

"You're face is bruised and you're in a horrible state. Annabelle what happened with you?" The teacher said. Her voice filled with worry and panic.

"I'll send you to the principle and she'll call your father." She said.

When I heard the 'father' word my eyes widened. I can't let father see me like this.

"NO" I shouted and she was taken aback by my high voice.

"I ...I I mean there's no need .. I was just ... I fell and that's what happened." I said.

Before the teacher could say what she wanted Michael was in front of me and he was touching my swollen cheek. I flinched back when I realized what was he doing.
