I heard someone say shit and I wondered how someone could say something like that right now. Oh well, it was a maladroit situation and well, I have got no other good word to compliment the oncoming march. My thoughts were hijacked by their lame comments and all I could do was stare at them like nothing's happening. I saw that many were attracted to this fun in the corner and I was stunned."...you think you can have fun and chat and drink like that, you good to nothing batch, you are worth to the garbage in that tin over there than to be sitting with normal people. You see you have attracted some jelly beans to yourself and one sitting in the corner being exactly the one I was afraid of. So lame, was this how your parents brought you up, is this how your parents are, Pathetic and down to garbage? Oh, I am sorry, I shouldn't have said about them, right ugly junk?" Lena smirked along with Darla knowing that she did indeed touch a soft spot in my heart.
Lame comment, wrong move, wrong persons to be dragged into this mess and she was messing with the wrong person.
The room was spinning and I thought I was fainting from the force. It took me few minutes to realize what happened and several gasps of air later, I saw what I did out of my temper. She blamed, no, she mocked my parents who were the only true gem to me and she mocked them to such a disgrace, that I was not able to control myself. The red lunch platter was shattered and its content all dispersed around Lena, who was crying hysterically and clutching her face which was now bleeding. A little too much, but I don't care.
When I found my own voice, I screamed at her and all those who were standing around, "don't you dare talk about my parents like that, and who gave you the right to disgrace them. You don't know anything about me and you try to outsmart me with your bloody tongue. I dare anyone to bitch me again from now on and I don't care what will happen to me, just stay away from me with your filthy mouth." I looked at everyone and took a deep breath. I realized a stern voice calling me and it was the vice principal. I didn't look stunned not sacred, I looked one last time at Lena and she crouched lower to Betty's arm. Everyone stared at me and scattered without caring to help her. As I looked back, my newly found friends were eyeing me with sympathy and I smirked at them.
Inside the Vice Principal Mrs. Lockhart's room it was intense. But I didn't care. Honestly I was happy I did get to do that stunt which will be now wild fire around the whole school and I am yay, out of everyone's radar.
"Angela, what did you do?"
"Mrs. Lockhart, you know, they have been bullying me all this time, and I have never crossed boundaries. She just went a little too far and I was shocked. Last time, as you may know, I was expelled from the school to have broken Lena's arm and now that I broke her face and nose. I am aware of my mistake and I am ready to take whatever consequences this shall bring."
"Angela, dear, you have to stand up to your bully, I know, but...this was a little too much. So now, I am giving you one week detention. And let's see if this brings any complaint from her parents, then, I am afraid we will have to go by what the principal will order."
"I understand."
"Good, you may now leave."
The hallway was scattered with wide eyes and thin lips, I just stared at everyone and moved towards my locker, the moment I turn, everyone just buzzed and I was more than angry at that point when I turned around and almost yelled "what". Everyone scattered and turned their gaze from me and I smirked at the awkward scene. I was the new terror, the new scary queen. I liked the power. The feeling of being top of the world ended right there when I saw brown danger looking at me when I turned away from the hallway to my locker.
"What is it?"
"I think what you did back there was awesome and I hope you don't get expelled for it."
"I hope too, I got detention, though. Just move, Alex."
"Oh, okey, but I will see you in the afternoon."
Rolling my eyes, I moved toward accountancy class and there was Connie sitting with a wide frown. Without looking down, and Connie, I walked straight to my seat. Mr. Powel continued his class and I saw a piece of paper flying to me. "Bitch, I will get you for what you did to Lena."
"Sir, I got this from Connie here, she is disturbing me from listening your class, sir." I know this was elementary trick, but I had to teach her a lesson.
"Connie, detention after class... now please leave us."
"But..."
"Out as I say, do you want this to be a week?"
She never left the class without glaring at me and I wondered what's with people and glaring. The rest of the day was awesome and I found out that Tina also got detention for applying nail polish in calculus class; I thought it was very funny and she got excited to see me with her. It was a disaster to see Connie with us, but I was ready for a fight if that's what she wanted.
"She is staring at you like she wants to rip you apart."
"I don't care if she has got a problem, she got to solve it and if she comes for a fight, she will end up just like Lena."
"Speaking of her, she has got a nasty scar for the rest of the time. You did that pretty hard, you know."
"And, I wonder how you will be if it was she who told about your dead mother."
"Sorry, anyway you know this sparkly pink was my favorite and a brand new one in the market and when Tess my cousin gave me today in the calculus hour, I couldn't resist the urge to apply it and there Mrs. Nicolas kicked my ass."
I never realized how fast my hour went with Tina practically chatting non-stop all the time. My mind was happy, which was a rare emotion for me and my smile was like a new picture on my face. It all came crumbling down once again when I saw my brown danger waiting for me in the parking lot near my car.
"What?"
"I...who told you I was waiting for you fat gum, I was waiting for Connie here, umm...."
"Really..." her eyes lit up like thousand lanterns and I rolled my eyes.
"Well, then move your sticky ass gum from my car cheeko." I couldn't understand what happened inside of me because I felt a pang of disappointment in me but I erased that soon because I can't afford to break my heart like that one more time. Now I caught him off guard and I saw him desperately trying to say something back, while, I waited for him with my hands crossed and tapping my feet impatiently.
"I never realized it was your gum cheeks; better beware of the tires flattening."
"Oh really, is that the best you can get? This has been my baby since I started growing gum around me. Now, you better start moving your stick bun, otherwise I won't hesitate to roll it into flat bread."
"Oh come on dear; let's not waste our time with this fat piece. Besides, you better beware the tone while talking to him." Connie spat half the time she spoke to me. I wondered how people will talk to her if she is standing this close.
"Whatever!" I was not that cruel to taunt her for that nasty thing of her. I just left it as it is, but I saw her fidget with her lips making me realize she understood the bubbles on her lips were super embarrassing.
I rolled out leaving them behind and looking back, I saw him shake his hands off her and walk away separately. 'What is with him?' I wondered and pushed the thoughts back as I pushed the school behind.

I have decided to choose Kevin Zerges as Alex.
