Ain’t Your Regular Girlfriend - Volume 1 Chapter 25 25 She Wants To Talk Ii
“No! It was just him and I party like he said. His parents were out of town so I agreed and went to the two people’s party. On reaching there he… He..”. She breaks down to the tears she has been holding in since and I f.u.c.k.i.n.g felt tears in my eyes. God!
“Hey, look at me. He won’t hurt you… Okay?”. I say and Tacha brings her face up.
“He offered me a bottle of beer and I drank it all thinking it would help cool my depressed state. Of what I was going through back then. All of a sudden I was knackered, unable to move my body… I thought it might be as a result of too much drink but it wasn’t until I started to see double Lucas.
The next morning I woke to see my self still on the couch I dozed off on. I was anxious about what would be my fate when I got home so I quickly hurried home, on reaching home I met my aunty who chased me out saying I should go back to where I came from.I had nowhere to go than to go back to school still in my yesterday dress.
When I walked inside the school, Everyone were looking at me weirdly which I ignored. But the one that tores me apart was Lucas and his friends laughing at me and whistling at my dress. They said “S.l.u.t bleeding”. She Stopped as more tears fall from her cheek to her hand. I climbed on the bed beside her and wraps my hand around comforting her with my palms.
“I stood there unable to move, at first I thought the blood on my clothes were my menstrual circle but it was’t. That was when the thought of what might have happened yesterday came to my mind”. She says and holds Clara tightly. “That was when I met Clara. She was a junior fresher back then and was the one who leads me out of there and helped clean me up. from that day we became friends and I sometimes sleeps over her house each time my aunt chased me away. I’m forever grateful to you Clara. Thank you”.
“But why did you stopped being friends with me?”. Clara asks her tone totally broken.
“Remember the video that surfaced the whole school on September 11, 2015? A year after the incident?”. She asks Clara and she nods.
“Nobody knows the person in the video so everybody deleted the trash”.
“I thought so and deleted mine until a month after the video when Lucas bothered to meet me of which I turned down. That was when my life shattered to pieces, that was when he sent me the original video of me beging and m.o.a.ning of which I never recalled doing. ” She quiver and Clara quiver too. The tears Clara was holding were out and I look away to clean mine.” That was why I left school. I returned when I heard Lucas changed school.
God, who knows how many people still out there living in this state, suffering this same abuse. How am I going to stop all this from happening to another person was all I could think of.
“My friend and I suffered the same abuse? God!”. Clara says in tears and Tacha looks at her.
“They did what to you?”. She asks her voice broken.
“We won’t let this to happen again”. I say ready to fight those idiots physically or mentally I don’t f.u.c.k.i.n.g care. How can this be happening to students and nobody did a thing about it?. But the question is how am I gonna do that.
“You have to be careful Lara, It isn’t only Thompson that wants you dead. You know that guy from Friday? He was never part of the plan. I gaps at her word and stand pacing around, trying to find the immediate solution to this.
