Ericka yelled angrily, "Orion?" Orion and Issella both turned to look at Ericka, who was filled with rage, tears running down her face, biting her lips.

But the first thing that came out of her mouth was

"Orion, please say this is just a misunderstanding and that you can explain everything to me. Just tell me, and I will believe you."

Despite being angry she wanted to believe the lies just to be with him.

"Please tell me this is a lie, Orion. I really need you to say it."

"I'm willing to forgive you, just tell me..." Ericka was unable to complete her sentence, as her tears and the runny nose made it hard for her to speak.

Orion stayed quiet, and his expression revealed everything she needed to know.

Ericka questioned Orion, choking on her own tears, "How can you do this to me? Why would you do this to me?"

She was losing it, questioning, "Why is it always me? Why does it always happen to me? Why me?"

"You did not have to break my heart this way, you coward, you could have talked to me."

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"

"Issella, I thought you were my friend?"

"I thought the same," Issella said assertively, with no trace of guilt visible on her face.

"But you turned out to be my worst enemy." Ericka scoffed, tears streaming down her cheeks as she experienced a deep sense of betrayal.

Upon hearing the commotion, Makyl and the others rushed to the club. Sami and Susen tried to intervene but were held back by Staid and Makyl.

"So you were a bitch all this time, I just didn't know, you both have done me so wrong" Ericka's voice escalated and cracked as she cried her eyes out.

Orion held Issella's hand, indicating that she should not get involved in a fight with Ericka.

Ericka repeatedly asked Orion why and if he didn't love her.

"Orion, I need you to answer me. Issella means nothing to me, but we were together. I need to know why."

"Tell me why, Orion? Didn't you love me? I truly believed you did."

She was crying ugly, and even though Makyl felt sorry for her, he thought it was her karma at this point. He decided he wouldn't get involved with her anymore.

Sami and Susen were itching to throw hands at Ericka, but the boys stopped them.

Orion couldn't take her constant crying anymore. He finally looked at her and said, "I have always loved Issella. I'm sorry." With that, he walked away, taking Issella with him, holding her hand. Together, they left the classroom.
