STORY OF OUR LIVES

Chapter 14 - Jared

Edited

Jared's POV

It has been a few weeks since Skylah and Mikhaila have received their card and it has been rough on them.

Everyday, someone would either throw eggs at them, trip them, put gum on their chairs and down right verbally abuse them.

I have helped them and got eggs thrown at my beautiful face sometimes.

I already talked to Allyasviel a few weeks ago and I don't know if that would have made a difference or not.

Flashback

"Talk now, Mr. Anderson"

And I happily did. I felt victory going through my veins, for actually getting her to agree with me.

Here comes the hard part, talking and explaining without making a fool out of myself. I already made it this far, there is definitely no going back now.

" Can you please take back the card? You know what happened was an accident. This is just a misunderstanding and if you could jus---" I exclaimed but she put a hand out to interrupt me from my blabbering.

"You're doing this, for her?" She said while raising an eyebrow at me.

"She doesn't deserve the card." He sighed.

"Then who does?" She asked mockingly and continued. "Her sister? Their parents? Another student? Or you?"

"Don't be so insensitive, Allya. I didn't think twice about helping you that day and you shouldn't think twice about stopping this nonsense also. You're hurting other people and I'm sure you know how it feels to be hurt." I exasperated.

"I never asked for your help and I do know how it feels like to be hurt. Don't act like you know me, because I'm pretty sure that you don't."

"I never said that I know you. I just implied that I saw a part of you that is broken and hurt."

"Why now?" She asked curiously.

"What do you mean?" I said with my eyebrows furrowed.

"Why are you doing this now? When I have already done this countless of times and I'm sure you know that."

" She's a friend." That was my amazing reply. When in fact, I don't really know why I am doing this when it could endanger me.

"You would do this for someone who is just a friend?"

" Yes, actually. I would do this for someone who is just a friend." I answered.

"What's done is done, Jared. You know that I can't take back that card. Especially when I wasn't even the one who ordered it."

"Then can you at least try to tone it down?"

She huffed and crossed her arms over her chest.

" I'm getting angry, Jared. You already know that I .... That I like you and you  dare to defend this girl in front of my face."

"And you know how I feel about you Allya. I don't reciprocate the same feelings for you."

" Ouch. So clearly, it's for her then?" She scoffed clearly getting angrier by the second.

"No. Also not for her. I just don't like seeing people hurt."

"Then why are you doing this? Hurting me. Is it because I'm different than others? Because I am a bitch? Because I hurt others for my own entertainment? That's what everyone thinks of me, right? Just a spoiled and pathetic bitch who destroys other people's lives because of her evil mind or maybe because of her insecurities."

" You're not like that." She laughed sarcastically, clearly not believing what I just said then shook her head while closing her eyes.

" Yeah, well you're just like them."

She sighed and looked at another direction, avoiding eye contact with me.

" Fine. I will try to tone it down a bit, but maybe other things will happen. Listen, Jared. I can't entirely stop the other students and my gang from doing what they want to do. So, don't expect too much." She said and her cold and empty eyes surfaced once again.

"Thank you, ..... and I'm sorry."

"I don't need your pity and frankly I don't need your opinions. I don't like you that much to give up everything and I will get over whatever I feel for you, hopefully." She mumbled the last word so softly that I didn't even hear it.

She nodded at me to go and turned towrds her car. I guess my welcome was already long overdue and took my leave.

"Wait."

I turned and she hurried to her car and took out two things that I had given to her that night.

"Here." She them to me, but i declined.

I smiled ."Keep them. You're gonna need them more than I do."

And then I walked away while feeling her gaze behind me.

As soon as I was sure that she couldn't see me, I released a breath that I didn't realize I was holding.

"That was some talk." I muttered under my breath.

End of Flashback

I turned on the next corner of the corridor on the way to my next class, Science and Technology with Mr. Luther, through the shortcut where nobody really goes to. I'm already late as it is, I just needed to find a faster way to class.

This was a place only a few people knew of that led to diferent shortcuts to different classes and of course the beautiful secret garden.

I heard a slap and shouting and found none other than Allyasviel and Rachel Brown. I hid behind a wall while watching them argue with eachother using their loud voices.

"Don't you dare touch me Rachel!"

I peeped at the side of the wall with furrowed eyebrows. Allyasviel had her back to the wall ,the garden was nearby and just a few meters away from them, while Rachel had her caged between her arms. Rachel was towering over Allyasviel's small frame.

"You can't do this again, Allya."

There were words that I couldn't really hear, but I understood most of what they we're saying.

"It was your fault! To think that you were my closest bestfriend Rachel, you actually had the nerve to betray me! Why?! Why did you sleep with Christan?!"

What the fuck?

.................

Yap.... There it is people. The main reason of Allya's hatred of her ex boyfriend and their feud against Rachel Brown. But that was just a part of the real reason.

Stay tuned for what happens next.
To all the readers who stuck with this book after months of agony for updates, thank you so much and I dedicate this book to you, all my supporters, my friends and of course, my family ( although they
don't know that I am typing a book here in Wattpad ).

I'm so sorry for the very, very slow updates. I mean, I don't have that much time and honestly, I lost the will because I really didn't know what to write next.

But thankfully after watching the very amazing online series called, Stranger Things, they found will. Lmao.

Anyways, I hope you guys and gals liked this chapter. Sorry if there are spelling and grammar errors.
