CHAPTER THIRTY FIVE
ACE.
' But you already lost that little girl Ace, I already died a long time ago .'
Although her voice sounded no more than a faint whisper, the effect of it was like a million knives slashed across my heart.Regret was like a bitter seed growing up inside of me, although she had not said it, I knew it could only have been me.
I had been the one who drove the knife of hate straight into the heart of my childhood best friend, but she had always looked so carefree, so optimistic and joyous, I had always assumed it was just me that was left to wallow in grief and loneliness after my sister's death.
The anguish in those crystalline pools that threatened tears amounted to the heaviness that settled in my heart.
I wanted to say so many things to her, I wanted to apologize for everything, but the words were stuck in my throat.
Of what use would it be?A simple apology would never
MY BULLY IS PSYCHOCHAPTER THIRTY SIXISABELLAThe whispers and some of the rude stares directed my way as we walked past, made me tensed and uncomfortable, some just stared at me in open curiosity, while others threw smiles in my direction.Scary. Unnerving.These were the words I could use to describe the sweet smiles thrown at my way by some of my classmates.The news of Ace kissing me had no doubt circulated the whole school, I had been surprised as heck when two popular girls from the cheerleading team had approached me, gushing about my hair and how they loved it. One commented about how I looked cute and pretty in my pair of glasses and how she would also get herself a pair, even to the extent that they invited me over to seat with them at their table.Dumbfounded wasn't even close to how I felt, I had always worn my bangs and if my memories served me right, I had been made fun of quite a number of times because of it.
MY BULLY IS PSYCHOCHAPTER THIRTY SEVENISABELLAMom had agreed when I told her about spending the night over at Olivia's place, I had told her we both were paired together for a school project which had to be submitted before the week was over, that had been enough to convince her but she had ensured to call her parents to ask if they were alright with it.So here I was, even though I was beginning to regret my decision."So which do you think it's perfect? " she voiced out, extending two similar looking gowns in my direction."Aren't they all the same? " I replied with a shrug, still wondering why she was dressing up, she also hadn't told me the help she needed from me." of course they are different! You are no help at all! So boring " she spoke with a glare as though I was the root cause of why she couldn't decide on the dress to wear.I rolled my
MY BULLY IS PSYCHOCHAPTER THIRTY EIGHTISABELLA"It wouldn't let off this way, you'll have to take off your mask from behind your ears so I can get a good view"His words made my ears blared in alarm my eyes grew wide in dismay, why was I the only one who got stuck each time in an unfortunate situation such as this?And why was it always with the one person I shouldn't be bumping into?I didn't move an inch to do as he said, my fingers were trembling in a nervous mess, why was I so panicked if he recognized me or not? It wasn't as though I needed his permission to be here...But still, being stuck with him with nothing but a few inches between us was nerve racking."Should I guess you must be deaf as well? I asked you to take it off!" He snapped, impatience oozing from his voice, where was he in such a hurry to go?Poor me.Just as I took a lit
MY BULLY IS PSYCHOCHAPTER THIRTY NINEACEI watched the girl run away without a backward glance, I couldn't get rid of this haunch that she was familiar, although the upper half of her face had been hidden, it was something about those pink rosebud lips, they looked every bit like the ones I tasted not too long ago.Isabel?I guess I had begun to imagine things as well.In any way, she would never be in a place like this, this girl that ran away, no doubt had the sexiest body I had ever seen, clad in that tight fitting dress.Never would Isabel wear something like that or even close to.Ever since this morning, I hadn't been able to rid her out of my thoughts.It was so difficult to completely stay away, I had been obsessed with giving her as much pain as I felt for so long, and didn't realize how many parts of my life she had taken up, even though I had always despised her...or at least I had convinced myself I d
MY BULLY IS PSYCHOCHAPTER FORTYACEHer face was tilted to mine, a wide satisfied smirk plastered on her face, a giggle escaped her mouth as she met my scowl, her reaction would have been cute were it not for the fact that she got my clothes soaking wet.Well, no one would be happy at having their shirt stained with pukeHer friend stepped in then, giving me a brief stare, she grabbed Isabel's arm, trying to tug her away from me."That's w..what you get for being so m..mean to meee" she stuttered, backing away with unsure steps, she allowed her fingers to slip free from my now messy shirt."I'll take you home now, please don't be stubborn okay? Gosh, you never should have taken those drinks from me, you are making me regret not stopping you !" She muttered under her breath, but her words caught my ears like a magnet"You gave her the drink? I bet you also brought her here, this isn't a place she should be !" I
MY BULLY IS PSYCHOCHAPTER FORTY ONEACEI cast a worried glance at the sleeping girl in my arms, it wasn't long I took her out of the party that she fell unconscious, now I was in a state of dilemma about what to do with her.She was supposed to be having a sleepover at her friend's place, Olivia had told me that Isabel's mother couldn't find out that she was partying.After a hard warning which I ignored, I had abandoned her at the party and gave Isabel the piggyback ride she insisted on.Party was over, she must have gone home as well.Now, I was left with two options, either to take her sleeping little form back to Olivia's place or to take her back with me.The second option was appealing to me than the first, I was being reluctant to let go of her, but I couldn't take her with me to Grey's, it wasn't as if he would mind, but I knew after the party tonight, he would have more friends staying over, so it wasn't a go
MY BULLY IS PSYCHOCHAPTER FORTY TWOISABELLA...This couldn't be happening."Let's just hope you don't get pregnant " His voice taunted my ears and I stared at him in dismay."P.. p.. " somehow I couldn't just get the words out of my mouth.All of these were too bad to be true!Shouldn't he be scared by the idea that he could possibly be a baby daddy?My baby's daddy?The image of me walking around with a protruding stomach flared in my mind.No!! It just couldn't happen! My brain screamed.An uncontrollable shiver swept through me.Yet again, it was too bad to be true.He had to be lying, it wasn't the first time he had lied to me, he had done so a million times in the past, I refuse to believe whatever he was saying, I just hope for god's sake that this was one of his numerous pranks.I searched through his gaze to detect any clue that he was toying with me,
MY BULLY IS PSYCHOCHAPTER FORTY THREEISABELLA.I ended the phone call with mom and made my way to the breakfast table , thankfully she thought I was still at Olivia's place, if Ace's mother had called and told her I had spent the night here because I was drunk, no doubt mom would have found out I went to a party, but thankfully she hadn't relayed anything to mom.I could guess it was because she thought Ace and I had gone to the party together, she perhaps still had the misunderstanding that her son and I were in a relationship.Speaking of Ace, I still couldn't believe he had played such an expensive joke on me.How could he do that!I still didn't know if I should be mad at him for playing with me like that, or if I should feel relieved that it turned out it had all been lies!And I had gone ahead to admit to him that I liked him only because I thought
