Chapter Eight

"Hey, Ms. Viglianco." I almost want to kick the guy in front of me. Sarcasm.

Have I ever told you guys the way students treat me right now is trash? Everything started when Ine announce that I'm fake Viglianco. This is not true of course.

Some students would call me Copycat and Trash. Like heck! I can't even concentrate on my class because they are throwing papers at me. I know the teacher saw it, but they didn't mind at all. Kate on the other hand was about to burst out that time but I told her to stop.

"Please step away," I told the ninth-grade guy but of course the guys just laugh at me. I rolled my eyes and left him. I want to enter the cafeteria but I know students will just start whispering. So it's better if I just go somewhere peaceful.

Kate and Cherry are taking care of me. They were always my shield whenever they bully me throwing me stuff and hurtful words. I know this will not last long because I'm expecting my brothers would know about this and hopefully they would stop this. Hopefully.

Maybe if they knew about this they would point me out and said it was my fault. I mean, I don't know how my brothers think of me. They avoid me sometimes like I'm not part of them. Just like Zeyt said. Brothers do and I shouldn't bug in.

I'm not adopted. I know that.

Do they want me... as their sister? or do they even want a sister like me? Maybe when Mom was pregnant they are all expecting a boy but it turns out it was a girl.

I never played with my brothers, except for Liv. He was my playmate when I was six. But then he changes when I was nine. Since then, we never played. Like others do. I would be jealous of other siblings.

I cut my thoughts when I saw Kate and Cherry. They are holding the food. But there is something with their faces, they look bothered.

"Did something happen?" I ask them making them look at each other. Now, What did I miss?

"You see... me and cherry were ordering food, and then while we are walking on the way here, we suddenly heard the Three bitches. They are talking about you and...your tree brothers." That made me curious. "They said that Trish went and talk to them one by one, and ask them if they know you. First Trish asks, Zeyt and he denied that he knows you..." I was shocked. what? "Then he asks Xyro about and the same answer, he said he don't know you... and then last Liv... he doesn't know you... That's what they said."

Why would my brothers do that!? I don't know how to feel anymore. Why so sudden? I don't want to believe it! I was no one when I come here to school and now even my brothers are denying that I'm no one to them. I should have told the tree bitches that I'm a real Viglianco. Maybe they would have believed me at first. But I was so stupid to think that if I told them the truth I would gather attention but I never thought of this, but what the point. Even if I tell the whole student I'm their sister or not telling them. I still can gather attention because of those tree bitches. I never know they would reach this point.

What can I do now?

"Maybe this is why rumors start to spread." That made me look at Cherry. "That tree told the whole school about them asking your brother about you but they denied to know you. and then they told the whole school! Does damn bitch. Wait till I see them, I'll skin them alive."

"Yeah, but what if there are just lying?" Kate started.

"Lying?"

She nodded and look at me. "You see Xyro, is a guy who won't talk to anyone aside from a close friend. So how would they ask Xyro about you if they can't even talk to him!" That gives me hope. But what if Xyro answer's them anyway.

"Kate is kinda right, You see I'm just new here in your school but I heard about your brother. And they all said that Xyro is a snob price."

I know they are just trying to cheer me up. But I can't help to think what if they ask my brothers.

Arg! This is so stressful.

"Relax guys, I can just ask them about it," I said before mumbling. "I hope they would talk to me."

___

I'm on the way to my locker, I need to change my clothes. Because a bully just throws a damn juice on me. It's a good thing I brought extra clothes to my locker.

I was about to open my locker when I notice something. Scratches... on the lock.

Someone is trying to open my locker! that's against the rules of the school! You can't just open someone's property! I'm getting sick. of this.

I open my locker and a white note immediately caught my attention. I never left this here before. Clearly, someone DID open my locker and put this note.

I look left and right. Someone might be here. Then when I saw no one, I open the note.

MEET ME AT THE GYM. NOW.

- LIV

I don't know... The words were encoded, so I can't tell if this is Liv's handwriting or what. Yes, I've seen Liv penmanship and it was... kinda... not good. His words are kinda leaning on the right. But what if this is a fraud. But also, what if this is him also??

What if he is going to explain what he told Trish.

So before I went there, I change my clothes first. I'm not skipping class. No teacher today, kate is just in the classroom.

I went straight then to the GYM after changing. When I got inside, no one was there. Is this a Joke?

I try to called his name but no one is here. Are you kidding me.
