Having parents that ultimately didn't care about me was something that I was used to but one thing that I couldn't get used to was the ignorance of Elora towards me. I didn't want to be clingy so I left her. I mean I wouldn't like it if one was clinging on to me so I don't see why I should do that to someone. She's been ignoring me this whole week for no reason. But there might be a reason I don't know of.
Elora's POV,
I hated it. Ignoring him. But there was nothing I could do about it. Especially since he thought we could be more than friends but that wasn't the case. I wasn't the girl he thought I was. My mind was clouded with all sorts of sophisticated worries and thoughts as I walked into school. I felt a light tap on my shoulder so I swiftly turned around my neck flexing in the process. Glinda looked at me in worry and said, "I meant what I said last time, if anything happens to you I'm going to be Elora", I nodded at her as if I was even listening to her but my mind was in another setting.
I walked off, leaving her behind with my other members, all of them looking at each other with worry and confusion spread all over their faces. I walked to my class, passing by Antonio in the process, his face showing all the worry and confusion he must be feeling. With one glance of looking at him, my heart broke into infinitesimal pieces. I was broken but he was shattered and discouraged. It was all my fault for giving him the hope that could give him the idea that we could be together but in reality, we really couldn't be together. I wasn't who he thought I was. It was heartbreaking. But ignoring him wasn't helping. Like at all. And I had to do something about it, with that thought I pushed against the handle of the door to my classroom and walked in with my head down.
Antonio's POV,
This is what I meant. I couldn't handle this. Why was I so unlucky? First, my parents ignored me and hated me for practically my whole life and now she was ignoring me and I really couldn't take it anymore. But I couldn't show her that I was fazed if she wanted to play this game then so be it, I'll make this a two-player game. I took one glance at her back as she made her way towards the class. Her long hair swayed behind her, her long thick thighs and legs that she showed off with her tight mini skirt strode across the hallway catching the attention of the thirsty and lusting boys. I caught the attention of one guy with my deathly stare that could kill one in a heartbeat and stuck my middle finger at him whilst nodding my head towards Elora that just made her way into the classroom finally. Her body not in sight anymore making the boys that once stood in the hallway staring at her figure resume back into doing what they were doing.
I kissed my teeth in annoyance, she was mine and mine only and if these boys actually thought they could ogle what's mine then they were definitely not aware of what was to come. And with that thought, I walked into the class making lingering and strong eye contact with Elora. I just stood there unaware of the teacher and class stopping what they were doing just to look at me in absolute confusion.
Elora's POV,
I finished the last quadratic equation on the sheet already knowing this since I already finished school but came back as Elora in order to finish this mission. I put my pencil down and leaned my head against my folded arms prepping myself for a quick slumber session, even if it was only two minutes my head needed it, my brain needed it too from all the stress that seemed to of have been clouding it. Antonio was the stress. Speaking of the devil, the handle of the door turned swiftly indicating someone was making their way into the classroom. The teacher didn't pay attention to it and continued explaining the aim of the lesson to us, students. Antonio walked in with his sexy figure, the hand that was once pushing the handle of the door coming up to push his jet black long hair back due to it blocking his eyesight. The second he removed the hair strands that were blocking people from seeing his beautiful black orbs, we made lingering strong eye contact with one another. None of us choose to look away but actually decide to just be in our own world and look at each other as if the whole class wasn't looking at us, including the impatient teacher who wanted to teach her students what quadratic equations were. I thought this only happened in movies but no I was actually experiencing it and can confirm that it is true. I quickly broke the eye contact as soon as I heard the teacher clear her throat. Antonio quickly closed the door and walked into the class quietly muttering a sorry to the teacher. She looked at me and him and shook her head in disappointment and continued teaching the class.
What's there to be disappointed about? At least I know what quadratic equations are. And with that last thought, I fell into a deep slumber my mind finally at peace. Not hearing the little snickers from behind the class where six girls sat looking at each other in pure ecstasy but also worry after witnessing what just happened between their little sister and the son of a mafia king. The next heir. They knew who he was but Elora never knew and they would do anything for her to not know. She couldn't know, from what they just saw and what they knew about Elora, they decided it was best for her to not know that she was slowly falling in love with who she had to kill in this mission of hers. Yeah, it really was best for her to not know especially since she was already going through her own problems.
The class ended with Sienna and Saige, the two older members of the girl group, waking Elora up from her deep slumber. Antonio saw these two older beautiful girls wake her up and he was confused as to how they knew her. He thought he was the only person she knew. But yet again there was a lot he never knew and it was best that things were kept like that. Him not knowing everything was for the best and safer for not only him but for everyone and everything.
