The next Monday, Kristin could still feel pain all over her body, her father came home drunk last night and took out his frustration on her, blaming her for her mother's death.
*flashback*
She was sleeping peacefully when she heard a loud bang on her door making her to stand up sharply. She didn't expect to see her father, he rushed to her grabbing her hair. He pushed her against the wall with a slap.
" you fool, bitch, you caused it all" he hit her on the floor
" am sorry dad" she cried
" shut up, you hear me? " he pulled her up with her hair and drag her to the sitting room and removed his belt" you killed her" he beat her as he spoke. " you killer... You murderer... Just die.... Go to hell"
Kristin mouth was bleeding where the belt hit her, she shield her head from the hit....
* end of flashback *
Suddenly her locker was closed making her jump in fear, she saw Jessica's smiling face " hey"
" hello Jessica " Kristin greeted pressing her books to her chest
Jessica looked her up and down with a raised eyebrow " watsup with long shirt today? "
Kristin had to cover up her scars, she shrugged at Jessica's question.
" anyways, you look cute" Jessica told her " come on " she grabbed Kristin's arm and Kristin groaned in pain but covered it with a cough. Jessica didn't noticed or noticed but didn't say anything.
" well, hello cute face " Troy said joining them, he wrap his arms round Kristin shoulder before she could dodge it, her face twisted in pain.
She looked up to meet Jess's gaze, he was staring at her the whole time, did he saw her?
" hey, let go of her" Jessica annoyed voice said, Troy raised his hands up in surrender but winked at Kristin, a blush formed on her checks but she looked at her shoes.
" happy news! " Rand announced " we all have this boring class together "
Jessica and Troy laughed while Quinn smacked Rand's empty head
" perfect, let's go then " Jessica said
Troy and Rand led the way followed by the girls then Quinn and Jess.
Troy made them sit at the back roll,.
The head of the school came in to talk to them.
Jessica and Kristin were having their own chit chat, well Jessica was the one doing the talking, feeling eyes on her Kristin turned to her left side and saw Jess looking at her as if he was trying to read her making her uncomfortable.
They both stared at each other " Kris! " Jessica voice broke her out of their staring battle.
" huh? " she turned to face Jessica
" you are been called " Jessica nodded to the front
" the top 10 best student Miss Kristin Morgan, keep it up and extend your knowledge to others "
The student clapped after the head of school had finished addressing them all.
" congrats " both Jessica and Troy said
" thanks " murmured Kristin
" golden girl" laughed Rand scattering Kristin's hair, she slapped it away from her neatly combed hair
" hey! Stay away from my hair! "
They guys laughed and she caught Quinn giving her a nod, at least he congratulated her, she sometimes forget he is around, she looked at Jess but was disappointed, he was busy on his phone and Kristin wished she could destroy the thing.
Hold on, where was that thought coming from?
They were having their lunch except for Kristin who was nursing her water bottle, she was in no mood to eat, she even declined the guys buying food for her, Jess was also busy on his phone and Kristin wished she was the one that got his attention...
No stop there!!! She cleaned her face, where were all these ideas suddenly coming from?
" excuse me " she left the table for the rest room but unfortunately for her she collided with the school Chicks.
" watch where you are going fat " they tripped her away and she fall.
Jessica, Troy and Rand were beside her in no time
" don't you dare touch her again bitches" Jessica warned them off.
The girls laughed " what will you do huh? "
" stay away " Rand warned them in a serious tone which shut them up. Troy helped Kristin up, she winched in pain trying to free herself from their tight grip.
" let go of me " she told them and they released her, Kristin ran away, sad Jessica watched her ran away in shame.
" Jess.. " called Jessica in a gentle way.
Jess shook his head but followed Kristin.
