Marino's Heir

Chapter 1

I woke up to the alarm ringing beside me, I would easily throw it to the ground but today I didn't, because I remembered today is this day. I got ready, packed all my stuff and ate then went to the bus. As soon as I got in, everyone looked at me and started whispering. I took a deep breath trying to ignore the fact that now whenever I go, I'll be the main topic of every gossip.  I walked trying to find an empty seat. "No! It's taken!" That's what everyone said. "You can sit here." One girl said from behind. "Thank you." I said and sat beside her. The ride was awkward, I just took out any book and started reading.

As soon as I entered the school Two boys held my arms and slammed me to the wall. "What the hell are you doing?! Leave me." I said trying to free myself to feel someone slap my face. "You bitch how dare you!" Sinda said with a furious face. "How dare you do this to Aurelia? You are so going to pay for this." She was going to slap me, but I couldn't help but laugh and that what stopped her. She looked at the boy who's holding my right arm and his knee hit my stomach very hard. "Hahaha....ha OH..."

She held my chin, made me look at her. "What are you laughing at? Do you think this is a joke? Huh? I'm not joking, bitch. You are going to beg for her forgiveness when she heals." She said and punched me again. "Yes. Yes. I'm laughing. At you. You are a joke. You two are stupid but she's worse than anyone. And no Sinda I'm not scared of you, I won't beg for Aurelia's forgiveness because I know that one day, She will be the one who'll beg ME to forgive her and you, you'll be in my position, and I'll be the one who's punching you. By the way that wasn't a punch." I spoke. "That would never happen. Do you know why? Because she hates you, you weren't her best friend, and you never will. Because you're a ugly nerdy bitch. You don't deserve anyone like her." She said and spilled water on my face. "Aah put your hands away from MEEE!" I pushed the boys away and walked to her. She stepped away from me scared because I was so angry. "I AM NOT UGLY NOR A NERDY BITCH!" I shouted then held her neck and pushed her to the lockers. "Listen here Sinda, I've had enough so I suggest you stay away from me if you don't want to end up like your new friend. You think I don't deserve her? No one does. She should be the one who everybody hates, she should be lonely because she's that bitch who can back stab you when you need her the most. I'm going to say this once and for all STAY AWAY FROM ME." I said and threw her on the ground. She started coughing as if she's out of air. I rolled my eyes at her and left.
She'll never change.

I went to the bathroom and dried my face, I saw a few girls looking at me and gossiping behind me from the mirror and rolled my eyes, now I'm the talk of the school, then the bell rang. I went to my class and sat in my place. The same girl who made me sit beside her in the bus came and sat in Aurelia's place beside me or was Aurelia's place. "Hi." She said while I was getting my books out. "Hi." I said and looked at her and smiled. "I'm Delilah." She said and raised her hand, grinning. "I'm Cleo." I shook her hand and she smiled.

Day by day, me and Delilah became close friends, she would come and try to cheer me up whenever someone make another rumor about me and talk about me wherever I go.

Another day the teacher came and the class began. Not a few minutes has passed by and the door opened.
"Cleopatra Martinis?" Another teacher came and asked. I sighed and leaned down on the table, the class started whispering, some of them laughing. "Everybody Silence! Cleo?" She said and I raised my hand. "Follow me to the principal's office please." I looked at Delilah and she smiled and said "Don't worry maybe it's something good. Think positive." I stood up and everyone looked at me, I walked my way out of there ignoring everyone. And feeling nervous of what's going to happen when I get there...
