Unexpected Love

The Cheater

Sitting down next to Hector at the lunch table I keep my eyes on Marisol. I can clearly see her eyes are red. Dante sits next to her and talks to her in a low voice that I can't hear what he says. "What happened yesterday?" I hear Hector ask me. I look into his brown eyes. I know I can't bring this subject up in front of her. I motion him to follow me. Excusing myself, I walk to the empty hallways.

"Why did you bring me here?" He asks. I lean against a pole.

"I can't talk about this in front of her. Did you see her? Poor girl is suffering." I explain. Hector nods taking in what I just told him.

"Is it that horrible?" He questions. I somberly nod.

"There are rumors circling around that Orlando is cheating on her," I say. I hear him gasp. "And he might leave her for I don't know who at this point. He has so many girls around him."

"Why haven't I heard this rumor?" He asks. I sigh.

"None of us ever hear this rumor. I only know about this because of Marisol." I say. "They won't tell us because we're close to her."

"How can he do this to someone?" He says with disgust in his voice.

"Cause he doesn't care about anyone but himself," I say looking him in the eyes. "I just want to rip his face to shreds. I seriously loathe him." I bitterly say.

Hector puts a hand on my shoulder. "We need to be strong for her. She needs us more than ever." He gently says. I look up at him.

"I know," I softly say. He takes his hand off of me, and we walk back to the table. I notice Marisol and Dante are missing. "Where did Marisol and Dante go?" I ask Diane. Diane looks at me from her phone.

"I have no idea. They just got up, and left." She explains. I sit down thinking about what has happened. "Orland had the audacity to tweet this." Diane shows me her phone. I read the tweet.

'When your hoe thinks she's the main.' With two devil emojis. I can feel my blood boil.

"What the hell is this suppose to mean?" I angrily ask.

I grab the phone from her hands and read it more closely. "My thoughts exactly!" I hear Diane say. "I bet Marisol saw this tweet since she follows him on twitter." I can feel Hector reading the tweet as well. I look at him.

"Who the hell raised him?" I ask.

I give Diane her pink phone back. I hear her nails hit the screen. "What the hell are you doing?" I ask her. She doesn't answer me. "Diane," I call out to her.

She looks up and rolls her eyes. "I'm replying to the bastard, what else do you think I'm doing?" She asks. I look at her confused.

"Why are you doing that?" I ask her.

She gives me a sly smirk. "Cause I have an idea to set up a fake account and follow him. See if he dares talk about my sweet little Marisol. For now though I'm content with sending him the middle finger." She explains.

"I don't think that's a good idea," I say as I try to grab a fry from her tray.

"Oh, but it is my dear friend." She says. Her hand quickly smacks a fry out of my hands. "Get your own food." She says while smiling. I rub my hand faking the fact that it hurt.

Adolfo sits down next to me, and groans. "What is it now?" I ask him knowing he wanted either attention or something else.

"I don't know what to do." He sighs dramatically and places his head on my shoulder.

"And what is it that you plan on doing?" I question him.

"Do I either ensure my future and study for my test or go out with this hottie and ensure my happiness?" He gives me those options.
