TRAUMA (Pains of Love) - Season 1 - Episode 7

* * *
PRESTIGIOUS INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL
INSIDE THE CLASS
:
David stepped forward and landed Peace a thunderous slap on both cheeks(you know that kind slap that will make you see stars, lol). The scene looked shocking and funny as well as I couldn’t believe David just slapped Peace because of me.

“David, what did you just do?” Joy asked while Peace just stood unable to say a word, then she turned and went back to her seat in tears.

“David, you are a disgrace.”
“So disgusting.”
“Very bad,” Members of my class shrugged their shoulders, while some went to console Peace, some just hissed and left the class.

“I will make this school a living hell for you Becky, that I promise you,” Joy vowed, then also left angrily after eyeing David and I for some seconds.

I was unable to utter a word as David quietly went back to his seat with a look of remorse in his face.

“David, that was too bad,” Queen retorted. “Though she behave childlike and crazy, she doesn’t deserve such slap from you,” she added and sat down on her seat.

I stood for a few seconds before sitting back on my seat. Though I disliked my classmates, I felt very bad that David had to slap Peace right infront of the whole class just because of me…
:
After Break, the class was very boring and even after the time keeper had rung the closing bell, I felt very reluctant to get up from my seat. Everyone kept whispering and eyeing me angrily as they left the class that afternoon.

“Lets go!” David and Queen said in unison as they stood infront of my locker.

“I will go later,” I said without looking up. Then I heard “Goodafternoon senior” which forced me to look up. To my greatest dismay, the head boy walked up to my locker and sat on top with one leg on the floor and his hands on his laps with his fingers locked. He wasn’t with any school bag except for a small jotter which he had kept infront of me.

Joy and Peace who were still in class picked up their school bags and walked to the door. “Players,” They said shrilly and finally walked out of the class. I was expecting David and Queen to leave too but surprisingly, they still stood staring at me.

“Lets go, Becky,” David repeated, sounding a bit harsh.

“David,” Joy prodded. “She’ll come later na,” she whispered and glanced at the head boy who looked a bit confused about what was going on.

“I’m not leaving here without Becky,” David said defiantly with a raised voice. I felt woozy as I looked from the head boy to David, then Queen and back to the head boy. I then decided to act rude just to let them leave me alone.

“I don’t wish to speak with anybody, please,” I frowned.

“I want to talk to you, Becky!” the head boy smiled, his voice sounded more romantic and charming.

“I said I want to be left alone,” I shrieked and stood up, then locked my locker and picked my school bag but Eric, the head boy, held my right hand. His palm was very soft too.

“I asked you to come see me during break but you refused, why?” he asked, looking directly into my eyes without blinking while I looked down.

“Senior please we have to go now,” David also held my left hand.

Queen stood with an amused look on her face and a folded arm.

“Hey! Let go of her,” the head boy ordered.

“No!” David stood his grounds. I could feel his shaking hands.

“Let go now!”
“No!”

“I guess you’ve forgotten that I am your senior, the head boy at that,” Eric glared at David but David was determined.

“Being the head boy doesn’t mean you have absolute authority over me, besides its after school and no parent in their right sense of mind will permit the child to stay back in school without any…”

“David!” I interrupted. “Let go, please,” I pleaded.

“Yes David!” Queen supported. “Let go!”

Though I always acted rude and arrogant, I still had respect for those who were older than me and I felt the head boy deserved some respect.

“Becky!” David called slowly.

“Please,” I added, trying to keep a straight face.

“You know this isn’t right?”

By then I’d had it up to my neck and that made me loose it, “And who are you to tell me what’s right and wrong? Do I look like a kid to you?” I fired but Eric still held my hand while David released me.

David swallowed hard in pains, “Fine then, have fun.” Before I could say a word, he was out of the class while Queen also joined him without saying a word to me.
I sighed deeply and turned to face Eric, ” What is it?” I demanded rudely.

“Lets talk,” he smiled and released my hand.

“About?”
“Just sit.”
“No, talk!”
“I said sit first.”

I stood breathing heavily, then sat down fuming in anger.

“You look more beautiful when you’re angry,” Eric smiled and touched my cheek lovingly.

I hissed and slapped his hand away, “Say what you have to say and let me go,” I eyed him, almost shouting…
