Aahna :

I tried to push Christian away but the more I did,  the more his grip tightened so I gave up.

Oliver and Emerald were now making their way towards us. Emerald looked good. Her skin was tanned a bit,  she always complain about my skin being tanned while hers weren't, guess she won't for a while.

" I stand with Christian on this. It was a stupid rule made my kids. We're grown up now. This is getting annoying now. Let bygones be bygones ." Oliver now stood directly in front of me and without one swift motion he took me away from Christian's grip who looked okay with it.

" Again. Again you guys are ganging up on me. Huh!  Looks like history does repeats itself. " he chuckles but nothing was funny about it.

" You wanna save her! " it was a statement.

He took steps forward and came face to face with Oliver.

" Go on, try your hardest cuz now let's see who has the say in here now!  You guys or me. " his eyes met mine and for a nano second I thought I saw guilt but it was soon covered.

He turns to the cafeteria and says, " All of your family wealth is connected to My company. I want this girl be gone within a week. She is to beg for me to let her leave this school and if not, your family will face the consequences. I guess I was loud and clear. One week is all you get. " he looks at us for a last time and then he leaves.

I took a breath which I didn't knew I was holding.

Wasn't I Torchered enough?  They have already shown me hell and he wants more?  Why?  Just because he has some problems with his ex-bestfriends and now they want to save me?  Why am I being involved in all of these?  Hell!  I didn't even wanted to come to this place!

So I said what I probably shouldn't have.

" You want me gone.  You want me to beg for you to let me go.  Guess what Mr Edward Heinrich!  I'm not a stuck up rich brat. I've seen life and by life I mean the real struggle. I've begged. I've faced the worst of situations. "

I now turned to look at him, but he was still standing facing his back to me.

" I never wanted to come here. I never wanted to be stuck with your kinds. People like you. You know what we call you,  kinds of you. COWARD. That's the word. You can't face your problems so you run. You have always been taught to run where people like me have to stand there and face it
Because that's the only way we can survive. "

" So try your hardest. I won't leave. I'll complete my studies and that'd be the day I'll leave this premises . Best of luck. Be the right man win. " and I left brush passing him. And I never turned back to see their expressions.

I left school and made my way home .

I was exhausted. Home. School. Friends. Family. Responsibilities. Struggle. Survival. Words kept swarming in my head. It was about to burst.

As I neared my house I saw my mother. In a car, with a guy who looked to be in his mid twenties. She was laughing and smiling at Something he said .

I stood behind the wall and saw the scene unfolding. She was about to leave when he stops her and then they start.......... Kissing?

I quickly turn away,  not being able to see anymore.

She's doing it again. She's loosing herself again. She's again making the same mistake. She's cheating again on him.

My mind wasn't at rest. It was struggling to let it all out. I never cried. I stopped after The age of 9. I thought crying is useless.

So I went to the bar I work in. I said the manager that a customer wants two bottles and I paid for it with the money I saved to buy a new uniform.

And then I drank,  for the first time. Sitting alone in the park. And I kept drinking until the voice in my head died down and until I slept in oblivion.

Please God!  Don't wake me up......... Ever.
