chapter 3

"I'm telling you Em, this school is the worst thing that ever happened to me ! " , Lucy said so as she took another bite of her ice-cream.

Emily understood that Anna Wilson had targeted both of them but she didn't want to worry Lucy by telling all this. Lucy saw Emily stressed and deep in thought so she went up to her to console her.

" Lucy, don't worry we'll figure everything out. It was probably because of the fight in the dorms yesterday but don't worry people will forget about it in a day or two."

Lucy thought Emily was right. People won't make a big scene out of something so petty. They just had to lay low and it'll all blow out in a day or two.

"You're right Emily, first let's go and get another bowl of ice-cream. " Emily smiled and went with Lucy. While returning back to their table they were interrupted by Anna Wilson.

"Looks like you two weirdos have no company. I feel sad for you guys.So do you now understand the repercussion of going against my friend?"

Anna's friends started laughing in a mocking manner. Lucy was very upset and scared at Anna's words, Emily could see this but she didn't want to react as it would be what Anna wants. Emily held Lucy's hand and walked past them. Sasha stopped them.

"Who the hell do you think you are to ignore Anna ?", Sasha snapped at Emily.

Emily didn't respond even then, this made Sasha even more furious. Lucy saw this and tried to calm Sasha down before something big happened.

"I am sorry for everything Sasha,It was my fault for ruining your bag " Lucy pleaded Sasha," Anna we won't bother you guys anymore so let's just forget about it okay ? " Lucy was desperate to get out of this situation.

Emily was disheartened seeing Lucy plead like that They had done nothing wrong and she didn't like Lucy lowering herself for something she had not committed ." Lucy, you don't have to do that …"

Lucy grasped Emily's hand tightly before she could say anything else. She didn't want to prolong the fight .Emily unwillingly kept quiet for her sake.

Anna noticed how headstrong Emily was and wanted to mock her in front of everyone.

"Aww I feel bad for you guys .You're right let's not prolong this any further I don't want to be the bad guy anymore. As long as you repent your actions it's fine"

"but Anna…", Sasha didn't want it to end. Anna just gave her a sharp look and Sasha became silent.

Lucy was delighted ," Thanks Anna , Let's go Em", she took Emily's hand and started walking away. She almost stumbled on something which was blocking her way. It was Anna's leg.

"Not so soon sweetie, I said you should repent on your actions right . So I'll make it simple for you both. Just kiss my feet as an apology and I will let the matter slide."

Sasha and her gang started laughing and gave each other high fives.

Anna words made Lucy petrified. She did not expect such a thing would ever happen .Her legs were shaking but she did not want to cause Emily any more trouble. All this commotion had already brought a lot of attention and the crowd formed around them.

Anna sat down and crossed her legs and Lucy slowly started to sit down . Leah, another one of Anna's friend just shoved Lucy down the floor and everybody started laughing.

Lucy wanted to end this quickly. She shut her eyes and advanced towards Anna's foot. This was when a strong hand pulled her back and stood her up. It was Emily.

"What's wrong sweetie, you wanna go first?" Anna mocked them.

Emily had enough of Anna's antics and wasn't going to see Anna mock her friend any longer.She went upto Anna and with a poker face stood right before her.

"Sure , If that's what you want , SWEETIE" Emily picked up her chocolate milkshake and splashed it on top of Anna."

The crowd was aghast at Emily's actions. Anna was shell-shocked at the turn of events. Nobody had ever done something as humiliating as this to her .She couldn't even process what was going on.

Seeing Anna in such a state Sasha stood up and understood it was her time to defend Anna .

"What have you done , you lunatic ! Do you seriously think you can get away after messing with Anna . Oh boy you are so screwed!"

"Oh really ? Fine then let's go and report each other to the headmistress Mrs. Aubrey . " Emily answered calmly.

Sasha scoffed , " You really think she would believe you? Do you even know who Anna's parents are ? They can make sure you leave this school right this moment ."

" They might not believe me but they sure might have to trust the cctv recordings of the cafeteria today to find out who the real bully was ."

Sasha had totally forgotten about the cctv or rather didn't care about it before since they thought these two wouldn't cause such a scene. If it was found out and leaked it would be an even bigger problem .

While Sasha was busy processing all this Emily grabbed the panic-stricken Lucy and rushed out of the cafeteria.

Sasha thought of stopping them but she spotted Anna sitting still in the same exact position as the time Emily poured the drink on her .

The cafeteria was filled with complete silence .Anna Wilson sat there in complete shock. Lauren , Anna's friend went up to Anna to clean her hair with tissues. Anna grabbed her hand and tossed her away. Anna screamed in range.

Bullying the students wasn't new to Anna and she had done worse than this but having such a thing being done to her and that too in public really enraged her. Sasha signaled everybody in the cafeteria to get out of there.

" Anna , don't worry I'll make sure that girl learns her lesson let's talk to your parents… "

Before she could finish she saw Anna showing her palm to her as a signal to stop talking . Anna's eyes were red with anger.

" I thought of going easy on that wench but she went ahead and humiliated me. What does she think of herself ? Hah Emily Williams , you messed with the wrong woman "

Anna stood up and stormed out of the cafeteria without even wiping her head clean. Sasha was sure that Emily was going to suffer Anna's wrath from now on.
