★★BELLA★★

      He saw my face while I come in, he closed his mouth from bursting out in laughter, on seeing me...

      OK. Now I've become a bigger laughing stock.
        
     I walk helpless to my room and he called me back. "Bella?" I Didn't reply.

      "Bella? Am calling you." I still didn't reply, I banged my door hard.

        For the next few days, I won't go to work. I thought they got over this disgrace but no- they always want to humiliate me in public.

     My life was ok when i forgot about them for a few months, I suffered bully from Kelly and her mother but it was better when I forgot those school girls, they made me hate school, I stopped concentrating for fear of them. I gave up on the things I love because of them. My hobby went down the drain

      I want to go far away from the world. To start afresh, my life... A new person, having a nice simple job, a simple life and a small family of my own.

      They are the snakes of my life, their venoms always made me weak, their gang up, mentally tortured my mind, and till date. I try to avoid them, but they outsmart me in everything I do, everywhere I go, they are always given privilege over me. 

       I wish to start afresh, forget all these phase of my life, like I lost my memory.

       "Bella... Open up" he banged the door.

       I try to arrange my hair properly before going to open up. I realized a large portion of my hair was dragged out.

      "No no no! No!" I cry out.

     "Bella...? Open, don't make me do It!"

     "No, go away!" I yelled at him. "Everyone wants to laugh at my hideous face, you're also laughing" I say.

       He suddenly opened the door with a pair of keys in his hand.

       "Go away, how did you get here?"

        "I have a spare" he replied.

       I cover my face with my hand, to make him blind to this new look.

      He walked over and removed both hands from my face.

      "Stop acting childish will you?" He opened an ointment, softly apply it on my face... "You let them hit you, you loose, you could have bitten off the finger of one, but no... You love been bullied all the time" he held my chin and turned my face to the other side.

        "Whoa... Is she a cat? She scratched your face so bad." He sighed. "Bella, don't always play the victim OK? Learn to be Strong. I can't fight girls for you, it will be unfair."

  I hear all he says but my brain isn't functioning the normal way. I think I have this stupid girl crush on handsome boys.

       He's talking so much... "You stood like a wood, your sister hit you so bad. Give me your hands?" He ordered.

        I stretched my hand. He rubbed the ointment slowly on it. "You should be better before tomorrow."

       "Bella, I'm going to town to some business, won't be back tonight, lock all the windows and the door properly ok. And again, don't enter my room".

     He lean closer and kissed my forehead. "Make a wish."

      I'm dumb founded...

        "Hello?! Make a wish" he say.
  
    "..." What wish? What wish?

       "Make a wish, what you want to happen to those who bully you, I'll help you pray God answers."

      I touch my fore head, my mom was the only one who ever kissed me, plus my dad, but that was a long time ago... My ears are gettong red.

     "Huh? A wish?"

       He got up. "I don't have to be late cause of you. Keep living your weirdo dreams." He Walked to The door then turn back with both hands in his pocket "Again, lock all windows and door. No one knows this address, no one will come to search for me, so you do not know me ok?"

    "See you pompom. Don't die of depression, I will be back soon." Then he walked away.

       After a while, touching my face, my forehead he kissed,  I go to the living room.

      His door was open. He was arranging his stuff in a travelling bag. 

      "Where are you actually going to?" I ask, as I lean to his door.

    "You said am jobless behind my back, am going to town to search for a job..." He walked out

      "See you soon weirdo." He ruffled my hair before leaving.
