The next day at work was an even bigger struggle. As soon as I walk in, John was attacking me, pulling tricks on my left and right. I wanted to take a knife and stab him. I don't even know why he was doing this to me. 

I walk into the kitchen to get a cup of coffee. I stand there waiting, hearing something crash outside. I don't even bother turning around. I couldn't risk it. What if John or Jake slip in and put something in my drink. I want to live! I hear the door open and close. Resist the urge to turn around Jayden, resist the urge. My coffee finishes and I pick up the cup. As soon as I turn around a feel my clothes get wet and my skin start to burn. I look up and see John. 

"Oh oops. Sorry bro." 

He walks out of the room and I throw my cup on the ground. It smashes into a million pieces and I continue to step on it, crushing it more and more, until it was close to a powder. This asshole is ruining my day. I feel my phone vibrate and I pick it up. I relax when I see it's Luke. 

"Hi Luke." 

"Uh Oh. I can already tell by the tone of your voice you're pissed." 

"No sherlock I am doing just great." 

"Sorry, I thought that would make you laugh a little." 

I sigh. I'm an ass. 

"No no. I'm sorry. I'm just having a bad morning." 

"What's going on?"

"You know John right?" 

"Yea." 

"Well he has been attacking me with all these tricks and what not all day."

"That asshole is lucky I'm not there. What did he do?" 

"Well, just now he ran into me and I spilled coffee all over my shirt." 

"That little shit!" 

"Yea, I know. I think I have an extra shirt with me." 

I see my boss pass by the room and he mouths paperwork to me. I nod. 

"Luke I have to go. Boss needs me to do some work. I'll see you at home. I love you so much."

"I love you more. Bye babe." 

I hang up and walk to my cubicle. Hannah was sitting in there doing some work. She hears me walk in and turns her chair and smiles up at me.

"Ello there." 

"Hi." 

She looks at my shirt. I wave it off and go through my drawers.

"Are you fucking kidding me!" 

"What?" 

"I have no extra shirts?" 

She laughs. She reaches into one of her drawers and pulls out a shirt and hands it to me. I look at her in question. 

"I always keep something extra for anyone who needs it." 

I nod and I go to the bathroom to change. I walk in and hear John and Jake. I hide in one of the corners where they definitely couldn't find me. 

"How's messing with Jayden going?" 

"Amazing! He's such a fucking wuss. He won't stand up for himself." 

"True hah. He deserves all the bad luck he gets in his life." 

"Hopefully it will be a ton of bad luck soon." 


They both laugh and walk away. I quickly change and leave, running to my desk. 

"Hannah!" 

She isn't here. Shit. Where the hell was she? I run around the office looking for her. I run downstairs and go to Monica. 

"Have you seen Hannah?" 

"Yup! She went outside." 

I thank her and run out. I look around and find her next to the curb. I run to her. 

"Hannah Hannah Hannah Hannah!" 

I get to her out of breath. I stand there panting for a few minutes before turning to her and telling her about the incident in the bathroom. 

'What happened Jayden?" 

"Jake and John were in the bathroom when I went and they were talking about how they hope that I get bad luck and everything." 

"Jayden, we need to figure out a way to spy on them. I'll ask around and see what they say about those two and find some cameras that I can hide." 

I nod and I walk away. She needs to find out quick, cause I am starting to feel that this is going to get serious soon.
