The Spectre

Chapter Thirty Six : Threatened

"Stop doing those funny faces, Bom. You're making yourself look stupid." CL told her best friend as she make dorky expressions with her face. The four of us, (CL, Bom, and Bora) are sitting at our usual spot at the school grounds spending our one hour break.

"Ah, chingu! You're always grumpy!" Bom pinched her best friend's cheek. CL mumbled something to herself and shooed Bom's hand away. Bom laughed as well as Bora and I and she continued to pester CL.

"Hey, how's everything?" I nudged Bora who's sitting beside me. "I hope all is well with you."

Bora smiled at me thoughtfully. "I'm fine, thank you." She answered. "I'm just a bit worried that it's slowly becoming obvious. I mean, my tummy seems to swell little by little." Bora suddenly looked troubled.

"Nah, it's not that obvious. Yet. But I think you better tell your parents about it soon though." I tell her.

"I've been planning to. I just don't know how or when I'm going to tell them." Bora said to me.

"Eventually they'll know of it. Might as well tell them about it yourself instead of them hearing it from someone else."

"Yeah, you're right, Arya. Thanks." She gave me a half smile. "By the way, I still owe you an apology. I'm so sorry I've been mean to you before."

"Apology accepted. Let's just forget about it and move on with our lives. The world's a better place now." I grinned at her. "And besides, you're friends with Gyuri back then. We all know she's a manipulative bitch and she's your friend. I understand that."

A corner of Bora's lips lifted into a smile. "I've been a bitch too." She let out a small laugh. "But, it's not because I'm friends with Gyuri that I tend to hate you before. Truth is, I'm just jealous of how Jaejoong treats you. I'm jealous of the way he gives you such attention. I envied you because he wouldn't do the same to me."

"Wait. So.. You really like him?" I asked her.

"I do. He's a nice guy after all. I always think Gyuri is the luckiest girl in the world." She laughed then shook her head. "What happened between Jaejoong and I was an accident. Even if I like him I don't want to steal him away from Gyuri. As if I could even steal him from her. That's impossible."

"How long since they've been a couple?" I asked her innocently. I might get some information from her since she used to be Gyuri's right hand.

"About a year." Bora answered. "After her ex-boyfriend died which also happens to be Jaejoong's best friend."

I sucked up some air and tried acting casual. "Really? What happened? I mean, what's the reason her ex-boyfriend died?"

"Drugs. Gyuri went devastated at first, and afterwards became ashamed of him. Jaejoong, on the other hand, was always there for her. Last thing I know, she already have him as a boyfriend." Bora tells me. If she only knew I already had an idea about what really happened.

"Gyuri must've liked Jaejoong even before that, don't you think?" I asked her.

"I don't know.. She seemed pretty much into GD.. I really don't know.." Bora muttered. "But lately I noticed her flirting with Jaejoong when GD's not around." I clenched my fists and gritted my teeth. So much for infidelities.

I was about to ask her again when pairs of several feet came into our view. One of them belongs to Gyuri the bitch. It's been a while since she'd approached us. She's with two other girls (Freshmen I think) that looked like a carbon copy of her. Seeing those two girls makes me want to shiver. I wonder if they even dyed their hair just to look like Gyuri.

"I see you're still hanging out with these bunch of losers, Bora. I never thought you can spend a few days with them." Gyuri arrogantly told Bora and threw disgusted stares at the rest of us. "Seeing you with them makes me wanna cry you know? I really pity you. You were one of the popular and coolest girl in the school. But all of a sudden you became trash. It's funny though, I think this is where you really belong. To become a trash just like these three mongrels here." Gyuri smirked. The two girls with her snickered at the same time making me want to punch the three of them in the face. What a good feeling it would give me to see them run with blood on their noses.

"Go to hell bitch and leave us alone." I hear CL tell Gyuri.

"Shut up, lesbo." Gyuri glared at CL. "I'm talking to her." She turned her attention back at Bora.

Bora stood up and all of us did. "What do you want from me, Gyuri? Why can't you just leave me alone?"

Gyuri scoffed. "So you're talking back to me now huh, Yoon Bora? I'm here to give you another chance to come back and be with me again. Just like the old times."

Bora smirked. "Why? None of these minions of yours good enough for you?" The two girls standing behind Gyuri's back gasped in disbelief.

"How dare you say that! Gyuri likes us!" One of the girls answered Bora.

"Huh! Don't get too comfortable." Bora told her with a raised chin.

"Don't listen to this piece of crap." Gyuri butted in. "So you don't accept my offer hmm? Well, too bad. I guess I have to include your name now on my most hated persons list."

"I don't care. Do whatever you want. I'm not going to be friends with you again. You're so pathetic." Bora sneered. Gyuri's face darkened and walked towards Bora. I pulled Bora to my back making myself in between her and Gyuri.

Gyuri laughed villainously as we became face to face. "Move, newbie. I don't want to see your ugly face in front of me." She hissed.

I just smirked at her and afterwards whispered something in her ear. "I know your dirty little secret, Gyuri. Yours and Jaejoong's." It was too much of a whisper so that only her and I could hear what I said. I smiled at her as the color drained from her face. "From now on stay the hell away from my friends, you hear me?" I told her. Gyuri's shocked expression shifted to being dead serious. She didn't utter another word, she just looked at me with threatening eyes.

"C'mon girls." She told the two girls behind her and stormed off.

"Oh my God, Arya! That was.. Amazing!" Bom exclaimed, her eyes glimmering in delight.

CL laughed and slapped my shoulder. "Not bad.. Not bad.."

"What did you tell her?" Bom asked me.

"I just told her she messed with the wrong girl." I answered.

"She got pissed off with that?" CL asked incredulously. I shrugged.

At the back of my head I know Gyuri had a hint of what I've said to her. I should be afraid, but I am more angry than afraid. I couldn't wait for the time to come when I would have the chance to expose her and Jaejoong from what they did to GD. As of now, I have to be more careful. I couldn't risk myself to be in some kind of danger. Not until I'm done with my plan. GD and Jimin will finally have the justice they deserve.

(Hi there! We're having a storm here. Hu hu! *cries* But am fine, am fine.. Hope all of you are fine as well.. Anyway, stay tuned for further updates. This story is about to end soon..) ;)
