C3 CHAPTER 3
CHAPTER 3
A familiar voice but not too familiar. I turned to look at the person and standing in front of me was the rude guy. Marcus was gone and there was only one person standing in front of me – MR RUDE. I'm surprised to see him here in my college because I've never seen him in this college before. Must be a new admission, I thought.
”So bumping into people is your hobby?”
”Well if you're not blind then you would have also seen that I was pushed intentionally” it was my time to be rude now. He walked away without uttering a word, Yet again!
What kind of a guy is he?
”May I come in sir?” I was late for this class, again. And Harry sir won't spare me. Well he never does.
”Ah Miss Blaire, we were all patiently waiting for your arrival. Hope you didn't have and trouble finding your way to the classroom. Tell us if you need any drink” and the whole class burst into laughter. Of course they'll enjoy since it's me who's getting all the tauntings and scoldings.
”I'm sorry sir. I won't be late next time”
”OUT” he shouted loud enough to make everyone quite.
”Out of my class!” I could hear all the whispers and giggles as I walked out. He didn't allow me to sit for his class not only this, being the director of our following course, he expelled me for the entire day. His words in a gruesome tone were of great ignominy. I was expelled for the entire day but this didn't mean that I could go home, makes no logic why.
Sitting on one of the benches of our campus, I cursed my fate. There was no one in the campus except for me so I decided to let my frustration out. I was upset and angry at the same time . I burried my face in my hands and sobbed so hard that it could have gathered people around me if there were any.
”Why God Why? Why only me?” I yelled out of pain, looking up in the sky.
”Everyone hates me. What have I done to deserve such hatred? Why does everyone talk to me in an abominable manner?” ”Entire class was laughing at me. There was not even a single person who wasn't laughing at me. And that Marcus, I hate him!”
”There was Blaire” I felt a hand on my shoulder and was bewildered by the touch. ”I wasn't laughing” said Mr Rude in the most unfeigned way but I still can't believe his words.
”You might be the first one to chuckle I suppose” I said making no eye contact as I was too abashed to look at him.
”You're wrong” he took my hand into his ”I did feel for you” I pulled away my hand.
”Don't touch me” I slammed. ”Why would you care? Just leave me alone.”
Sitting alone in my room, I opened my diary and began writing,
Today's day at the college was gruesome. I feel worthless. First I accidentally bumped into Mr Rude for which he was rude to me even after apologising. Then all those students booing at me in the campus. Then that incident with Marcus. Harry sir also made fun of me that too in front of the entire class and why? Because I was late, just three minutes late! Not only this, when I was sitting alone in the campus, crying, Mr Rude approached me and said 'I feel for you' Wasn't all these enough for a day that he was applying salt to my wounds? He heard my words in the campus and was probably making fun of that. I've heard this manier times, people say but no one actually means it. I'm highly upset, livid and glum. I wish I die or I wish that I wake up some day and realize that my entire life was just a dream and that the future is going to be better. I want to abate this suffering.
BUZZZ… BUZZZ… BUZZZ…
I wasn't in a mood to talk so I didn't even bother to check who the caller was. The phone kept buzzing and I kept ignoring but the caller seemed to be obdurate and I was annoyed by it's stubbornness. The number wasn't saved in my phone, I picked up the call and ”Who's this?”
”What took you so long damn it!” we both blurted at the same time.
”Woah. Relax darling it's me” hearing the voice I felt like crying even more.
”Blaire? You on the line?... Are you crying?” how can she know me this well that even when we are on the call she can tell what I'm doing, when I'm upset and whether I'm crying.
”Elena… I miss you” finally I managed to speak. ”I miss you too Blaire but I doubt this is the sole reason behind your big fat tears? Come on now tell me what's bothering you?”
I narrated her the entire story, how I got bumped into Mr. Rude and about his rudeness and the incident with Marcus and also Harry sir's behaviour towards me. She kept listening, my words as well as my sobs.
”Blaire, why do you let them bully you?” she said after I had finished speaking.
”I don't know how to stop all these Elena. I can't deal with it anymore” I cried.
”I wish I was there by your side at the moment”
”I wish the same. I miss you like anything. I have no one here with me ever since you left”
”Even I'm far away, I want you to know that I'm still by your side. Distance cannot asunder us”
”Of course” I said in a dull voice.
”Don't worry babe, I'll be back soon. I'm coming back to London… Very soon”
”Really?” I was happy by the news but I still couldn't stop myself from crying.
”Yes really. But for now I have to go. Catch ya soon. Take care babe and stop crying” We disconnected the call after bidding each other bye.
Elena is my best friend and also my only friend. We are friends since we were in kindergarten and I'm blessed to have a friend like her. She's the only girl who completely understands me and truly loves and cares for me. She brings joy to my otherwise hell like life.
I layed in my bed and covered my face with a pillow. The day made me lethargic and I slept like dead today. I checked the clock and it was…
WHAT!?
It's 1 am. Means I slept for the entire day and even skipped the dinner. Why didn't anyone call me for dinner or wake me up?
It's 1 am and I can't go back to sleep. Sleep won't occur to me after sleeping for entire day. I sat near the window and peeped outside. It was night time and everything was dark outside, the crickets were chirping and I was listening to their chirps. I looked at the moon and felt the urge to go outside.
The moon looked beautiful as ever. I remember the night when I had chanted that Vampire Spell. Well according to that I should have been a vampire by now right? LOL.
It feels so good to be out at this hour of time. No Humans. No Problems. No Nonsense. Just the moon and the stars and the open sky and peace. It was serene.
Sudden rustling of the leaves brought me back to this land. I was perplexed as there was no wind to cause the rustling. Just then I saw someone running behind the bushes. It's 1 am, who could it be at this time? I stared at the bushes for like ten minutes but no movement.
