October 30, 2013.
She had an exam in the next hour, she definitely wouldn't if she was still locked in the outdated university restrooms that were unluckily in the far back of the dining room, exactly close to campus.
It was one of the things I had to endure from some girls who bully me, but I endured it because I didn't want problems, but no one would make me just make a subject stay for me just because.
Yelling for help was stupid, no one would answer me so I had to find another method. But what would it be? I turn around to find something that works for me, there were at least thirty minutes left to finish the exam and I couldn't allow myself to fail. Instantly I see a tube, the lock was not that strong so I ran to find the iron to hit the knob with force.
He'd hit it, hit it another, and so on until the lock began to fail. He smiled because luck is on my side, so I take enough force to hit him the last blow. The sound of the lock breaking was loud so much that I had to protect myself with my hands in case the metal fell into any part of my body, but when I didn't feel anything, I ran out and didn't have time to check where the knob had fallen because it was running to go take my exam.
When I got to the classroom, everyone was still taking the exam, the teacher stares at me as if I had three heads, the truth of the matter is that I go into the classroom and go to it.
"Professor, excuse the delay, I have a problem." I say with my hand on my heart, I was tired.
I had run and that in itself was exhausting me, he continued without any expression, but I beg you to let me take the exam.
"Okay Weston, go take the exam but answer that you only have 25 minutes and counting." His seriousness gives me chills, but happy because he had given me permission.
I take the paper he hands me, look for an unoccupied desk and sit down, quickly taking out the pencil to write my test.
I feel like they look at me, I know they really don't like me but they will have to put up with me until I finish my studies. The minutes go by and I still have some questions to answer, I do what can be done humanly, of course I do not go unnoticed the annoyance that is increasing in my being, I am trying not to explode because the only one who will be harmed would be me .
I don't want to lose the exam, I need to get 100% it would be a shame and my father would not be happy at all. I constantly martyr myself with it, because it is the only reason why I am still alive and I cannot fail.
The biology teacher gets up from his seat to go through the exams, goes through each position removing the sheet of paper. I just try to write as fast as possible, I don't want to leave any answer unanswered because it would be difficult for me to understand. I would go crazy.
"Miss Weston, give me the test please." I look at him carefully and put my first and last name, then I give him my test.
Sigh satisfied with the result, she had answered 25 questions in record time. I couldn't stop smiling happily.
"You can go now, I'll deliver the exams corrected tomorrow," says the teacher while I put my things in my bag.
Everyone is leaving and I stay last, so I clean the white board so that the other class is clean.
The rest of the classes were normal, my classmates had stopped making such practical jokes on me, I could finally be at peace for the day. Time passed slowly, I wanted to go home and rest, but there was still an hour to go.
Everyone in the classroom was already waiting for the anatomy teacher, but she did not come. More than 20 minutes passed and we were already bored, well actually they were bored I just wanted to go home.
"Good afternoon, the teacher Indira will not be able to attend the class, and they can retire." the secretary of the director commented immediately.
I took my things and left the classroom, I would have to walk home. I am still immersed in my thoughts so much that I do not realize that one of my nightmares is lurking without realizing it.
"Our pretty Colette, where are you going?" Barbara Lincoln, I take one of my loose strands to pull it without subtlety.
She was the daughter of very prestigious parents, and recognized throughout the country, she knew it because she was always shouting at him everywhere as if we wanted to know everything that her life contained. But that's the way people are, vain and with self-worth problems.
"I'll go home, bye." I say unimportant.
It turns out that she had different plans for me, suddenly two more people arrived and dragged me to the back of the campus, they were all in class, there was no one to help me, I kicked hard trying to get out of their grip.
"Please let me go!" I shout but no one is listening.
Barbara hits me on the face, I feel a crimson liquid coming out of my lip and it burns a lot.
"Shut up bitch!" he shouts without shame.
This is how after a few seconds I have been thrown to the ground, they were two girls apart from Barbara, I knew them from afar I did not even know their names. They were both part of the soccer team, they were tough girls.
"Why are you wasting your time on me?" I say annoyed by his attitude.
"Because you are taking away my position, no one should occupy that position that belongs to me so much. "He says with full hatred." Listen to me well Colette, I want you to stop cheating on exams.
I look at her in disbelief. Did she say she was cheating? This can not be happening.
"I don't cheat, I study and strive for it." He stressed, trying to get up from the ground.
"Don't make me laugh, I already warned you."
"You're crazy!" I commented furiously, but it was a mistake.
She turned around looking at me cynically, then she cast a glance at one of the girls who were quiet but at once they both smiled like the first one had. I could only try to escape but it was in vain because I quickly became a prey for those girls, they did not take long to come to me to submit me and be able to unload their anger towards me.
"Please stop, it hurts a lot!" I cry sobbing.
The blows they had given me were not subtle at all, for a moment I stopped to think that if they continued in this way I could even die of a hemorrhage caused by a blow to my head, my brain would move out of place and collide with my skull causing slow but resounding death.
I smiled for a moment but it turns out that life wouldn't be so merciful to me. They stopped when they saw blood coming out of my body, they withdrew scared when they did not see me moving or complaining about the pain that their blows caused me.
My body weighed so badly that it hurt just to breathe, but how I was able to walk to the infirmary where no one was waiting for me, I wished the nurse wasn't there and didn't see me in the state I was in.
I kept walking, there was little left to get there, just a little, so I started to walk slowly so as not to lose what little strength I had at the moment.
"Are you feeling okay, girl?" I heard him ask, but I didn't know if it was a man or a woman.
"Help me please, my head hurts a lot." I turned around slowly until I saw his face.
"Who did this to you?" His face confirmed everything, he was totally wrong.
But my strength was exhausted and I fell into darkness, I couldn't even tell him who it was. Although that no longer mattered, now it only remained that it was nothing serious ...
