Confessions of a Bestfriend

Chapter 11 Her Secret

Chapter 11

I tried calling and visiting Ericka at her house but she always blew me off. At school, she ignored me. I was practically invisible to her. She's always with Kate & Claire. I refer to them as "The Snitches" short for "snotty bitches".

Kate was the taller one. She had a wavy brunette hair that went down to her waist. She always wore heavy make up that made her looked cheap. The petite one was Claire. She had a brown hair that's always tied up in a ponytail or sometimes braided. She had small facial features that if you would focus her face it would seem scrunched up. They were not that pretty compared to Ericka.

Whenever they passed me by, the snitches would deliberately blurt out words such as, "boyfriend stealer" or worse "slut".

Everyone at school believed that I stole Ericka's boyfriend. Everytime I walked the corridors, they would whisper and give me stink eyes. So, Ericka started her revenge.

The next day, one of the guys at the cafeteria purposely spilled his drink on me. It scattered all over my face and shirt. I heard giggles from Ericka's table and the other students laughter. I ran to the girl's bathroom and fixed myself. I cried quietly inside the cubicle so no one would see me.

Suddenly, there were footsteps.

"That girl's gonna get it real bad." I recognized Kate's voice because of the high pitched tone.

"Got that right. Ericka's finally come to her senses dumping that girl. She's just wasting her time. I dont even get why she's still friends with her." Claire said with her snotty accent.

"Yah...Hey, so what about that boy Zeke?" Kate asked while I leaned closer to listen to their conversation.

"What about him?" Claire asked.

"Well, he's a jerk for treating Ericka like that. He should also be punished." Kate explained.

"Yea, you're right. I have ideas for his punishment. Let's go to Ericka and tell her. Are you done?" Claire exclaimed.

"Yup!" Kate said, smucked her lips.

The two went out of the bathroom and I quickly snuck out of the cubicle. Those minions were evil indeed. They even wanted Zeke to suffer. They were the perfect examples of snotty little bitches. I mustered all my guts and told myself to go ahead with this obstacle.

I whisked my way to Ericka and her cheerfriends who's chatting and doing all kinds of nuisance just to make people notice them. It annoyed the hell out of me. They all paused when I ushered my way to them. They expressed their impressions of disgust towards me.

"Ericka we have to talk." I announced as I grasped for her arm.

"Let go of me! You dont have the right to speak to me, go near me or even breathe the same air!" she snapped and shoved my hands. At that notion, the audience cheered.

"Listen, I know what I did was wrong. I'm sorry." I pleaded.

"Apology not accepted. What's done is done Aria! So can you do me a favor? Leave!" she exclaimed.

She was pissed off. I couldnt talk to her when she's with her groupies. They would just influence her to make my life more miserable.

And I was right.

One day, As I strut the corridors, I began

to observe people started murmuring something. I pondered on the obvious that after looking at their phones they would emit sinful glares at me. I was too naive to the fact that something horrible was about to unfold before my eyes.
