No one loved her. She knew it. Every moment of her life, she felt it. She was everyone's backup plan, never a priority. But she realised he would love her . He would make her his priority. He was ultimatum after all. She decided that she'd win his heart. She knew she was making a big decision, possibly the biggest in her life. She went up to him and she flirted. She used a rope. She used some medicine. She used a blade. It was her hope. It was her time. Her time to fade. He acknowledged her and recognised her endeavours. She fell into his bloody embrace. She woke up on her way to Hell's restaurant. On her date with death.....

"HEYAAAAAAA!!".
Athea jumped up a little as that loud enunciation reached her ears. She quickly wiped her tears and fake sneezed. So that she could blame her tears and flushed face on a cold that she seemingly caught. She turned to see that it was Iris Waters. A girl she knew well. In fact she knew her so well, that she sensed she didn't exactly have her best interests at heart. She mentally told herself that there wasn't a point in wiping her tears. Not like Iris would ask or care anyways. She smirked at that thought. This, Iris noticed. She couldn't bear seeing others happy or satisfied. She was a vicious fox in every sense of the word.
"What are you so happy about?" She glumly asked Athea.
"Oh I'm just surprised you said hi. Didn't really expect that."
Seeing Iris satisfied with that answer, she sighed mentally. Iris was not to be messed with. Neither were her cronies- namely Heather Scarlett and Dahlia Scarlett. The trio called itself the 'Floret cadre'. More like the 'Wallet cadre'. They were the sirens of the school. With their blonde hair, tall heights ,0 figures and utterly dumb demeanour, they were perfect fits for the word. The guys of their school danced on the batting of their eyelashes. But obviously there was a condition to claim the venomous beauties. Money! The richer you were, the more chances that one of the three became your SO....Until you ran out of expensive gifts for them of course. Hence the name 'Wallet cadre'. They didn't care about anyone. They barely even cared for each other. There was obviously something that Iris wanted. She wouldn't have come to Athea otherwise.
"Hello? Earth to Athea ?"
"Oh sorry. Kinda got lost. Can I help you Iris?"
"Well yeah duh! Sooo basically I like broke up with uh Steve. And I had like a really hard time and I didn't even like pay attention in class. So hand over your notes from like today so that I can make my work easier? Woman to woman? You know how hard it is to deal with hormones".
Athea didn't really care and just silently removed her notebooks from her bag and handed them over to Iris. She pasted a smile on her face as she did that.
"There you go!"
"Yeah thanks or whatever babydawl. I like owe you one."
Athea smiled in response but internally, she was cringing at Iris's excessive use of the word 'like'. She didn't really think that Iris could seem any dumber. But Iris proved her wrong with her 'likes' and that weird lazy drawl which had become a significant part of her accent. Athea shuddered at the thought of being like Iris.
"Hey I gotta go Iris. Seeya in school tomorrow?"
"Yeah whatevs."
Athea once again, smiled adorably in response. She knew it would annoy Iris. She then turned and both girls went their ways. As Athea reached home, she realised her parents weren't there. Their car wasn't anywhere in sight and she couldn't hear the sound of TV ....so they must've taken her little sister along. She smiled at the idea of spending some time alone in the house. She looked for the key under the doormat and slid it in the lock. She entered the house and instantly locked the door. She went up to her room upstairs and locked the door. The mirror was just opposite to the doorway and she ended up seeing her reflection there. She looked at her oval but slightly cherubic face. Her curvy body with thick thighs, a bubble butt and a Kim Kardashian waist. She looked at her long dark brown hair and finally into the reflection of her own eyes. She frowned after thoroughly noticing her five foot tall structure. She hated the way she looked. She was nothing as compared to Iris and her cronies. She sighed and crashed on the bed and started watching a romcom on her laptop. All was going well until a scene with lots of love and crying played. Memories of her past flashed through her eyes. She went into a state of paranoia. As soon as she calmed down, she went and sat on the floor with tears causing stains of moisture on her disturbed face....
