Mon-ika and the Clubroom of Bullies

Chapter 6: The hazing of Puzzles the Unbannable

The next few days, me and Mon-ika avoid each other; I avoid Cirkeltrek club and she avoids both the treehouse and my 'Puzzles and puzzles' club. People are still coming to my club over Cirkeltrek club; my club is awesome; it is like a better version of Cirkeltrek; members are given more freedom with the work they can present and they are also allowed to move things around in the clubroom to better suit them.

On Monday, I met a member called Deleted Sayori. Me and Robella were talking to her when Mon-ika teleported me to an empty room; SentryDroid still did not want me in the Cirkeltrek clubroom. Mon-ika looked stressed "Are you two happy now? Look at this horrible situation we are in! Puzzles I know you are mad at me right now, but I have been trying so hard to get you back to Cirkeltrek, can you just close down your club? It's making Droid miserable."

Droid jumped in and said "I'm not letting Puzzles back into Cirkeltrek because he's not a decent human being."

I was having a great time in my club over the past few days so I was in a great mood. So I decided to let Droid's insult slide and I also decided that I would talk to Mon-ika another time about leaking our private conversations. I figured the the best thing to do is to try to get them to see that the situation isn't actually as bad as Mon-ika makes it out to be "Hey, you two should come to my club; it's really fun."

Droid replied "I am not supporting your club."

Mon-ika said "You know how much stress this is causing me? All I want is for you to be back in Cirkeltrek? You think I like this constant fighting with Droid to get you unbanned?"

I reply "Then give up."

"You don't want me to do that. I know you don't want me to do that!"

"If it is causing you stress to get me back into Cirkeltrek, then don't. I said I'd sacrifice Cirkeltrek for you, so can we just stop this... please?"

Droid actually agreed with me "Puzzles is actually right."

Mon-ika interrupted "About what? Giving up and letting everything go to shit?"

So I interrupted "It's not shit; my club is awesome!"

Droid responded "Mon-ika was talking about my club."

So I said "Well I haven't really been in your club for like a week now so I can't comment, but if it is that bad, then just come to my club where things are going great?"

Droid responded "Well there's an idea! I used to compare my club with the Literature Club and Mon-ika always used to say it was an unfair comparison; they started before and our target audience is a small part of the Literature Club. Well you're club just opened and it killed my club. Can I call myself a failure now?"

Mon-ika said to me "Why do you hate Droid so much?"

I responded "You know this isn't true; when everyone was busy in my club and Droid seemed like they were in pain, I still tried to comfort them even though they hate me."

After a brief pause, I had a solution "I have an unconventional idea so bear with me. It may sound weird but what if Droid stepped down as President of Cirkeltrek? If it fails, then it's not your failure."

They paused for a bit before Mon-ika teleported me back to my clubroom. I didn't know whether they wanted to discuss my idea in private, or if they just had enough of me, but I decided that I would be best off not bothering them. The next day, instead of going to the clubs, Mon-ika and I went to the treehouse to have a long talk about her leaking my information. I believed she understood what she did wrong, and I forgave her. However, I told her not to say those things before so she has broken the trust I had in her; I don't think it'll ever be as it was again. I decided to give her another chance and I decided that I would be a little more careful about what I tell her in the future. After 2 hours of discussing that topic, Mon-ika told me that Droid took my advice, stepped down from it's position and made her the President of Cirkeltrek. I congratulated her on her new position and she told me that she's unbanning me and making me unbannable. She teleported me to the Cirkeltrek clubroom where people were waiting to welcome me back. It turns out that Robella locked up my clubroom, packed away all the work into the club locker and told everyone how Mon-ika planned to bring me back to Cirkeltrek club. Unfortunately, The talk with Mon-ika took a very long time and left me drained, so I did not have much time or energy to enjoy my return. But I was back and Mon-ika told everyone that I would never be banned or kicked again, I was even given a badge which said "The Unbannable Puzzle Piece".

Unfortunately, SentryDroid still hated me; day after day it would haze me; it would prevent me from doing things that I was told that I was allowed to do and it would randomly insult me in sly ways when nobody else was close enough to hear it. I realized that this hate wasn't something that would just fade away, so I thought I'd try to patch things up again with Droid. I told Droid that it could tell me what it does not like about me, and we can see if I can clarify why I am like that or I could avoid doing the things that piss it off. Droid rejected my offer. I asked Droid to do it for Mon-ika's sake but it still rejected my offer; it didn't want to fix things, it didn't care that what it does stresses out Mon-ika, it just hated me and I had no idea what else I could do. The next day Droid took my badge and destroyed it; this really upset me and I started ranting to Robella about how angry I was at Droid. When Mon-ika heard about this, she introduced a new rule that Droid and I are not allowed to interact with each other... but Droid doesn't care about following the rules; Droid is Vice President and creator of the club; it's not like Mon-ika can punish them. Droid just continues to haze me and there is nothing I can do.

I don't belong here, do I? Why doesn't anyone tell Droid to stop this? What did I do to deserve this? I only did what Mon-ika told me to in that RP. I want to go back to my club... but I have to stay; Mon-ika wants me to stay.
