IV: rumor

I wake up just in time to go to school. I fucking hate Mondays. Ashley had surprisingly already left.

When I walk into the campus and people start staring me down. I check my phone and I have more than 30 notification alerts on my phone.

How could you?

That message was from Ashley.

I scroll through all the messages and see all of them are against me, antagonizing me for something I didn't ever recall doing.

One of them read to check my Snapchat story.

I looked and to my demise, there on my story is a picture of Ashley's bruise and the caption of the picture says, daddy liked to hit her. Paul liked to hit her. maybe she asked for it. oh well.

I didn't put that on my story. I was sleeping! My mind starts racing with a million thoughts and I feel dizzy. No one knows my password because I don't give it out. Why would I? I'm not fighting with anyone right now, other than not talking to Evelyn but how could she have done this.

I spot her walking down the sidewalk and she comes over to me,

"What happened with you and Ashley?" She asks concerned.

"Evelyn, I didn't post that."

"What?"

I start to feel extremely confused and sad. If Evelyn didn't do it then who did?

She gives me a hug and tells me, "we'll find what person who posted that on your story."

I start to cry and fall to the grassy green ground. Evelyn places her black hair behind her ears and crouches down next to me,

"Come on Jane, please get up. If you didn't do it then you shouldn't feel upset. Like I said, we'll find whoever did it."

"What am I going to tell Ashley?" My mind is still racing with horrible thoughts and questions. But the main question still burns in my head. WHO DID IT?

Evelyn helps me back up and I'm on my feet. Ashley's black car pulls into the driveway and she's wearing a black hoodie with the hoodie on. Her hair is jagged and all over the place. Her eyes are red.

I walk over to her car to talk to her but she opens the door and steps out, slapping me straight across my face. The slap stung horribly and I could feel my skin turning red. My head shot back and tears formed at my eyes.

"You stupid bitch."

"Ashley, I didn't do it."

I start bawling my eyes out and repeat that over and over.

She grabs my hair and throws me onto the grass. She slaps me again, and again, and again.

Evelyn comes racing over and breaks it up.

"Evelyn get the fuck away from us you useless coward."

I sprawl on the floor and try to regain balance but I feel like I'll fall over at any second. Ashley whiplashes through Evelyn and runs towards me sending me plummeting towards the ground, she's screaming insulting remarks and slapping me whenever she can again.

Finally, Evelyn yanks back Ashley and pushes her to the ground. Jason and Andrew run over and hold us together.

"She's a slut Andrew. She's only using you because you're good looking. She told me."

"I NEVER SAID THAT!" I scream, my face feels like a burning fire.

Andrew stands uncomfortably and finally removes himself from the fight.
