"You sure you're okay?" The nurse asked me after I take a rest. I raised eyebrows in answer. She gave me strawberry milk first before I take my leave. When I step outside I saw a silhouette of a man at the right intersection of the corridor. I guess someone has got into their curiosity.
I simply ignored that person because if they don't have some kind of business with me then he or she is not worth it of my time. As I wander the long corridor I felt hungry so I have decided to take a quick stop at the school cafeteria to buy some food.
I was nearly close to the Cafeteria when I suddenly felt that something will happen to me once I lay my foot at the cafeteria. I stop for while to think about what are they're planning to do with me. After a few minutes, I have decided that I will go to the cafeteria because curiosity is killing me.
I'm prepared for what might happens to me. When I step inside the school cafeteria something dropped down upon me and that's the reason why I'm a hundred percent wet right now. Gradually I felt my skin dissolving, it was too late when I noticed that there was acid in the water. I calmly touched my burned face and covered it.
"That is what you deserve you ugly girl," One of the students said and all of them starts to laugh despite my condition.
Seriously, is this what they can do? For real? Very childish. They have no idea how to pick up a real fight. Thanks to them it makes me want to laugh, really, really hard.
I stared at them while I'm still covering my face. They stopped laughing because they felt me staring at them. Even though I was having a hard time walking, I forced myself and approached the woman who spoke earlier.
As I got closer and closer, they also begin to walk slowly backward as if they were scared of me. I fix the collar of the woman's uniform with my free hand.
"Is this the only thing you can do to me? Pouring a lot of water with acid on it?" I asked her then I looked her in the eye. Her eyes were frightening and I could feel that her body is trembling.
Out of fear she felt she looked at her colleagues as if she's asking for help to pull her away from me. I chuckled at her and she surprisingly looks at me. I bow to her slightly so I can reach her ears and whisper "They will not help you. In their eyes, you are now a worthless creature"
I smiled at her and those students who make fun of me. I walked away from her and her friends start to walk to her. They just watched me having difficulty walking out of the cafeteria when I turned around one last time.
I wave at them using the hand that I used to cover my face. I could see the fears on their faces when they saw my melted face. "See you around, playmates," I said and left them I said and left them traumatized by what they saw.
I managed to drive home to the mansion safely even though my condition was serious. When I opened the mansion door I saw Michael's smiles before I completely lost consciousness.
Michael's Point of View
I rightly suspect that today will not be a good day. Earlier I was restless here inside the mansion. Even some of our maids are worried about me. After 4 hours our family doctor came out of the room of Tori.
"How is she, Bernard?" I ask him. Bernard has been our family doctor for a long time because he owes me and Victoria when we and his whole family saved them from the fire 30 years ago.
"It's all stable now. Mistress has a third-degree burn. I also discovered that Acid was not the only thing in the water that was poured on her. It also contains an unknown type of magic in which it prevents the wound from healing. It also makes one's race to be a human temporarily so at Mistress state it is very dangerous for her to roam outside of the mansion." I tweak my hair because of my frustration. my jaws tightened because of the anger I was feeling. I'll never show mercy on those people who did this to Victoria.
Bernard touched my left shoulder as if he were telling me that everything will be all right. "She's waiting for you," He said then he left me outside of the room.
I knocked on the door before entering Victoria's room. Even though I was far away from Victoria's bed I could see that she was wrapped in a bandage all over her body. I approached her to see her better and to check if she's okay now. I let out a sigh of relief when I saw her peacefully sleeping.
I took her vanity chair and laid it on beside of Victoria's bed. When I sat down, I immediately held Victoria's hands. I bent down while feeling her presence when suddenly the owner of the hand I was holding carefully spoke.
"You're not crying, are you?" She said. I raised my head to see her. She smiled at me with such sweetness that you thought she was not suffering from any physical pain. I just laughed at her because she loves to tease me.
"You're handsome when you smile. So don't be sad okay?" I nodded at her and kissed the back of her hand.
"Go back to your sleep so that you can regain your strength immediately" she nodded back at me then she closed her eyes.
When she fell asleep again I kissed her forehead. Sorry, Victoria if I am not by your side to protect you. But I promise you they will pay for doing this to you. And You will never be harmed by others again.
