Hey peeps, how are you all doing?
I will be leaving you all the opportunity of picking some perfect song suggestions for this chapter.
Did I leave y'all in a cliff hanger again? Omg! Am so sorry, my bad. But some cliff hanger just makes the book more fun-filled with suspense. So without beating around the bush, I will get straight to business.
Yeah, you heard me right. Having to deal with a blank sheet of paper or a page is a business.
I will be dedicating this chapter to Wattpad Jkaloko claraibiam kate_hy oa_judith VanessaMzndi Agathi_bw

I once felt fart build up while at the park some years ago, I looked around, though the coast was clear. I gently released. Dude on a bench got up and ran away.
This are memories I cringe at when I remember, but it can never be compared to my present circumstance.
The tears burst forth like water from a dam, spilling down my face. I feel the muscles of my chin tremble as I grabbed the porcelain sink and stared at my reflection. My walls, the walls that hold me up, make me strong just..collapsed. Moment by moment they fail.
Salty drops fall from my chin drenching my shirt as my salty sweat mixed with it making me a puddle of salty mess. I press my head against the wall as the smell of detergent waft into my nostrils building up my frustration. My black pupil stared back at me. So innocent. I am anything but innocent. I'm trembling. I can't- can't stop. Even as I press my hand against the wall letting the rough feeling of the tiles coerce my hands, it shakes. It trembles, it's raw, everything, raw tears, raw emotions.
The sound of someone flushing the toilet woke me up from my realm of weakness as I hurriedly use the hem of my shirt to wipe off my tears. But what use is it? My eyes are red like I'm high on weed. The evidence of tears is stamped on my face like a report card to whoever cares to notice.
Amelia, Ian's girlfriend steps out of the toilet and began to air dry her wet hands while she studies my pathetic state with utmost silence.
"Okay, what did I do?" She demanded staring at me like I was some serial killer sent to murder her in cold blood.
"What do you mean?" I inquired and cleared my voice as it came out raspy and dry. I really need water in my system.
"You look like you want to rip my head off."
"Sorry, that is just how my face works." I sighed tiredly and tried to wash my face.
"It is natural to cry, you know. Cry it all out, let the pent up emotions wash away and you will feel a lot better." She advised and touched my back while my muscle stifled.
Just that sentence broke my walls again as I began to wallow in self-pity again and I shook my head dejectedly.
"I swear I didn't do it. I don't even have my nudes on my phone. It was photoshopped." I tried to convince her while her grey eyes pierce my soul.
"You don't need to convince me. I know for sure that it was photoshopped and the photoshopper did a really bad job. Whose ass is bent like that anyways?" She said with knitted brows.
"Probably his girlfriend." I offered while we snickered.
"You need to get yourself out there and face everyone. You are innocent, you did nothing, and you should sue Nate for this nonsense stunt she played because doing this because of a guy that has no interest in her is pointless and sheer wickedness." She muttered with annoyance and began helping me pack my hair in a messy bun.
"Why are you doing all of this?" I asked, watching her every move and struggled hard to figure it all out.
Her cool gaze shifted from my hair to the reflection of my face in the mirror and she moved closer to my ear to whisper. "A friend of Ian is a friend of mine. Besides, you need help and I am very disappointed your best friend isn't here yet." She pointed out while her words stabbed my heart as my head played a short clip of our last meeting.
"Await vengeance." Was what she promised as she sashayed out of my presence with the devil she calls a lover.
"Wash your face and let go meet the boys. They stabbed the match to be with you." She stated and began washing her hands again.
Amelia led me towards our class, the entire building is empty with the occupants at the field watching the ongoing match.
I stepped into the class and saw an office chair facing the board. As someone whistled dangerously.
"Welcome to the meeting tomboy." A horse voice blurted out and the chair swirled round revealing a smirking Ian.
"I hope you brought your huge note pad because I will be tutoring revenge 101." Another voice said aloud while tapping sound echoed in the hallway.
Alas and behold, it was a smiling Eric in a huge magician hat as he posed by the doorway.
"We will be doing practicals and we will solve my formulated formulas for the revenge today." Eric continued and walked into the class.
"Idiot!" Mike chided and slapped Eric on the head.
"Ow! What was that for?" Eric asked rubbing his head.
"That was my line stupid." Mike accused with a deathly glare at Eric and he punched his shoulder.
"Oh! I forgot, but you could have formulated another line stupid genius." Eric hollered and punched Mike's shoulder in return and soon enough they began to fight and roll around the floor.
"Stop it guys! We have a class to run, remember?" Amelia slammed her fist on the table in front of Ian making him flinch.
"So much for teaching a class. This is what happens when you have idiots as co-teachers or friends." Ian said and facepalmed.
I shook my head in disbelief and began wondering how I ended up with idiots for friends.
"Get your ass out of my face stupid." Eric hollered and continuously struggled hard to breathe in air.
"No, you get your face out my ass," Mike screamed and soon enough they began fighting again.
"Guys, I have my photoshopped nudes on everyone's phone and you are here quarrelling. I need you all to start the revenge class asap because I am thirsty for some revenge." I screamed at them while Mike and Eric struggled to stand up and they began dusting their clothes.
"Right." Ian fist-pumped the air and brought out a marker and wrote boldly on the board. Revenge 101.
"And no more physical combats two idiots," I warned sternly pointing at Mike and Eric.
"Alright, so let list some crazy revenge we will be practising on our victim. Nate." Ian continued with a smirk.
"Send her a glitter bomb." Amelia blurted out.
"Change her phone setting to Spanish or Chinese," Mike said and laughed wickedly.
"Set her alarm to go off by 3 am with a blow horn sound." Eric chipped in.
"How about we mix superglue in her styling gel. It will be so fun." Amelia laughed.
"Or we can hang a bucket of cold water over the entrance of the door. Tie a rope so when the door opens, the bucket flips upside down on her." Ian started wriggling his brows while he turned to the board and began writing.
"Operation two, we will move her car without her knowledge to a different spot and make her hunt for it like crazy." Ian retorted and rubbed his hands together.
"Awn! You sound really smart." Amelia complimented her boyfriend and he went to kiss her cheek and returned to the board.
"Just like back in the days." She added with a smirk while Ian muttered in disbelief.
"Back in the days? I'm always smart Lia." He glared and muttered. "Right now, I don't know if I should kiss you or shove you off the bridge." Now it was Amelia's turn to glare and Ian's turn to smirk.
"Can I pick?" Lia asked.
"Absolutely not." he shot her a wink.
Little muttering soon began from Eric and Mike's side as their argument became another full-blown fight.
"Are you sure I can't punch him in the face?" Eric asked me while I shook my head in positivity.
"What if I just break his nose a little?" He pressed on while I ignored him.
"So how do we get her keys to move her car?" I asked Ian who wandered around in thought as he continuously scratched his chin.
He soon began walking towards me and almost placed his hand on my head. "Don't even dare." I threatened knowing he wants to ruffle my hair next.
"I have a solution." Eric offered.
"Thank goodness! So how do we get the keys?" Amelia probed.
"It involves fire..." He continued but was interrupted.
"Absolutely not." I scolded.
"So, I know a tech guru and he can help us bring the circulated pictures down." Amelia blurted out.
"Great! That is one progress." Ian said.
"I just hope Nate won't do more nastier things," Mike said thoughtfully.
"This can't get any worse. Can it? My heart began to beat faster as I imagined worse things coming up.
"Sure it can just give me a minute let me think about it." He replied while I hissed loudly.
Loud voices of students echoed as they made their way upstairs, it seems like the match has ended and from the excited chatters, I could tell it ended well. I really am proud of the football team, especially Ralph.
My heart broke more as I thought of what Ralph would be thinking about me now. The kind of rumours he must have heard. Did he believe I am capable of such a scandal?
"You know what?" Amelia began. "This is the time we have one another's back. Nothing can go wrong with us guiding one another." She stated but no one paid her attention.
"Will you all be quiet?" Amelia chided.
"We didn't say anything," Eric said with a roll of his eyes.
"Well stop thinking so loud." She reprimanded and cleared her voice before continuing her speech.
"Insults will be thrown, mocking laughter will be fired, so many things will come up but we have to be strong. If not for anybody but because of Anna here." She pointed at me and gave me a hug.
"My girlfriend is such a motivational speaker." Ian Sniffled and wiped fake tears with his hands.
"Where is the idiot anyway?" Mike asked.
"I'm right here stupid and I'm not an idiot." Ian hollered throwing his hand in the air while I shook my head at his sheer stupidity.
"Surprisingly enough, I was not talking about you this time around." Mike shrugged off idiot number three with a wave of his hand.
"Look who is here," Nate said with loud laughter as she stood at the doorway.
"Idiot number four." Amelia blurted out with a chuckle.
"I came here to pay my condolence to you and check on you to ensure you haven't committed suicide yet." Nate walked into the classroom and folded her arms to her chest.
"About that, I think you should be mindful of your speech because we will be paying condolence to you soon." Ian threatened and walked towards her with a frown.
"I thought Asians have a degree in minding their business," Nate said with a thoughtful frown as she tapped her chin with her perfectly manicured finger.
"Oh sorry, I forgot you are the outcast." She said with a chuckle.
"Pretty lame if you ask me." Amelia butter in.
"Well no one is asking you, you can do better by strapping yourself to your seat and keeping your opinions to yourself." Nate countered with a smile.
"Now, back to you loser. Stay the hell away from Ralph or your days in Royal academy shall remain disgraceful and depressing." She warned and I stood up and gave her a poisonous smile while other students began tripping into the class.
"About that darling, I think we are long overdue for a chat." I walked towards her and began circling her like a predator will watch its prey.
"Here, hold my morals. I have got some sketchy shit to take care of." I said to Amelia while she smiled in response and moved back for me to step forward.
"Oh, you mean that huge heap of shit in human form standing in front of us," Amelia asked innocently battling an eyelash.
"Exactly," I said with a snicker while she gave me a wink.
"Don't you think you have had enough drama for a day sweetheart?" Nate smiled.
"Oh quit being silly, what is life without a little drama." I threatened sweetly and cracked my knuckles and watched as her face dissolve all smile as she digested my words.
