The High School's Way

Chapter 3 : Who is the chicken now?

The guy still looked at me. I think he really wants to kill me...

Then, he mumbled, “Can you come with me for a moment so I can talk to you... in private?"

I looked behind me. They were all snickering, except Kathleen, obviously. I looked at the i-smacked-the-dude-in-the-back all shaky. I must be really scared...

I nodded and he grabbed me harshly, pulling me away from everybody.

He took me to a forest with a lot of bushes, may I say...

He stopped and faced me with the angry expression still on his face.

“Why did you do that?" He asked me.

“I..." I mumbled. I couldn't find the right words. Not to brag or anything, but I have never done anything like this to a human being. But I had to do it because no one can mess with Andrew. But I feel like I can  now, since he was the one who got me into this problem...

“U-huh, I'm waiting." He said, with his arms crossed over his chest.

I looked down at ground.  “Andrew, the meanest but popular dude in school dared me to smack you in the back since you were the new dude and he wanted to make your life miserable even though he doesn't know you that well. I don't either but I still tried to beg him that I didn't want to do it but I guessed that I had no choice so I did it and now we're here, and you're mad at me even though it was not my fault. But I'm not mad, I'm just frustrated and disappointed... and a little upset." I sighed but looked at him this time. “I guess that is all that you wanted to know."

“I guess it is." He said, rubbing his forehead. “Do you usually talk this quickly?"

I shopped my head. “Only when I'm nervous and frustrated... and disappointed of what I did..."

“Well, then. I forgive you." He said grinning. “But I don't forgive Andrew."

I smile and I felt an evil cackle on my head. I knew what he was going to do. And it is something I have wanted to do since I first met him...

Revenge.
