Chanel's POV
*School*
"Hey, how's Rachel?" Jasmine asked.
"Oh, she's good." I said. "Good spirits ya know."
"Yeah, she a fighter for real." She said.
I closed my locker.
"Hey Chanel." I heard.
I immediately rolled my eyes.
"What?" I asked.
"I just wanted to say I'm sorry to hear about Rachel." She said.
I looked at her oddly.
"Thanks Alexis." I said.
"Too bad it wasn't you." She said.
"Now why you gotta say some disrespectful shit like that!" Jasmine yelled.
"I'm just saying it would be sad if what happened to her happened to Chanel." She said.
I looked at her and took a deep breath.
"Jasmine, let's go." I said.
"What?" She said.
"Let's just go." I said walking away.
"Yeah, walk away like your daddy did to you." She said.
I stopped walking. I looked back at her.
"What you say about my father?" I asked.
"You heard me, you did just pop up out of nowhere a few years ago. Your mom's didn't give a damn about you and neither did your dad." She said.
I looked at her.
"Bitch, at least I know who my father is." I said.
It look like I caught her ass by surprise.
"Yeah, hurt don't it?" I said.
"At least my mother didn't hide me away." She said.
"Bitch, you don't know my life cause if you did you wouldn't be talking all that shit." I said.
"What you gonna do about it?!" She said. "That's what I thought, your pussy ass ain't gonna do nothing."
I know she didn't just call me a pussy.
I walked up to here and just punched her. She tried to punch me back but I ducked. I caught her with that upper cut and her body dropped.
Everybody was just looking at me but I didn't even care. I went on with my day like nothing ever happened. Think she gonna talk about my parents and call me a pussy, hell nah. I went to my math class like it was nothing. Jasmine has been staring at me the whole time.
"Stop looking at me like that." I said.
"You know you getting in trouble right?" She said.
I shrugged it off.
"I don't care. She cross the line talking about my personal business. She can talk about Jay Z and Beyoncé the performer all she want but she got personal." I said.
"I know and I understand why you did it but will your parents?" She asked.
"I don't care, I stood up for myself and refuse to let myself get bullied again." I said.
"Ms. Carter!" I heard.
I looked up and my teacher was standing there with one of the security guards.
I got up with my backpack on. I walked up and the security guard and he had his cuffs.
"Sir, you don't need to cuff me, I'm not gonna run." I said.
