Chapter 11 - A normal highschool girl

This is a story of a simple girl and how she led into this devil situation.

My name is Harima Maika. I am a 3rd year high school girl. My hobbies? I guess i would say reading and avoiding extra ordinary people. I wore glasses because sadly i have bad eyesight. Well, i'm not that strong myself but i can say i'm satisfied with my life right now. I was happy. My family is fine i guess. my dad was a business man but he suddenly stopped working so my mom has to work hard. I have a brother, but he's overseas right now.

I have a friend, but you can say she's the only friend i have. I am not good with communicating with others, but even if i'm like that, she would be there for me. Her name is Manami Ishino. She's pretty and kind, she's also smart and has lots of friends. But she's the closest friend i have. She has long peach hair and a slim body, perfect i would say, a real beauty! We went to the same middle school I was getting bullied by other girls, because one of their friends was irritated that i was in her way. Then she step up...

Ishino: Um... girls? I see... you guys are the teacher's favorites aren't you? What will the teachers say if they knew you were this bullies who picks on a normal girl?"

"Shut up! You're not involved here Ishino!"

Ishino: I'm involved now sadly. Now let her be or i'll tell the teacher!

"We won't let you! We'll all say that you bullied her, as if she can speak up anyways."

All the girl laughed at us.

Ishino: I guess the teacher would believe you if ma'am wasn't at your back.

"What?!"

Ishino: Ahh... i already called teacher by the way. She's behind you.

They got scolded and she smiled at me after that.

Ishino: Don't worry, Maika? Was it? They won't bully you anymore.

Maika: Tha...thanks...

Ishino: No worries, I'm Ishino, actually we're in the same class right?

Maika: Y-yes.

Ishino: You should protect yourself from those kind of people you know. If i wasn't there, what else could happen?

Maika: So-sorry...

Ishino: *sigh* you really should learn to speak up. See you can speak up just fine.

I looked up to her ever since. She was my ideal, i want to be a strong person like him. Not even guys can pick on her.

One time i was in the comfort room and i overheard other girls who were talking about her in a bad way.

"Isn't Ishino standing out too much?"

"I know right! She's like have all the boys' eyes on her."

"What's with that damn bitch?! My boyfriend and i broke up because he likes Ishino more than me damn it!"

"What's so good in her? She's just a barbaric woman! Maybe she's a guy?"

As the girls laugh, i went out of the toilet, and decided not to get involved but...

Maika: Ishino isn't a bi-bitch...!

"What you saying?! Shut up nerd!"

They pushed me and i fell on the ground. I stood up and tried to speak up.

Maika: Ishino is not like that, take that back!

"Shut up Nerd!"

The kept pushing me around and slapped my face, as my glasses fell off. I couldn't see a thing. But i kept on standing and fight for Ishino.

Maika: Ishino is a good and pretty girl! She's strong and brave, and she's better than you!

"Now you're making me mad!"

She kicked me and i fell down. I can't stand up because i can't see much.

"Oh excuse me. Looking for your glasses?!"

I didn't saw it but it was definitely my glasses that she stepped on.

"You're one of Ishino's puppet? I see this nerd might be useful. Let's make her an example for Ishino."

They grabbed a bucket full of dirty water and was about to pour the water on me...

Ishino: I see... so you want to use Maika to scare me?

"Ishino?"

"Since when have you been there?!"

"Long enough to do this!"

She punched the girls' faces and slap them one by one as she make her way through me. And the bucket they were about to pour to me. She grabbed it and splashed it on them.

Ishino: I'll take you guys as an example. I didn't want any of your dumb boyfriends nor do i want to be popular i just do what i always do, but hurting my friend is out of line!

She was cool like a warrior. I looked up to her. The girls left running.

Ishino. Goodness those girls. Maika, are you okay?

Maika: Y-yes.

I can't see her but i can tell that she's standing in front of me as she helps me stand up.

Ishino: I'll walk you home and buy you a new glasses.

Maika: You don't have to...

Ishino: Let me as thanks.

Maika: I didn't do anything.

Ishino: I heard everything you said, and it hit me. I want to be your best friend is that fine?

Maika: Y-yes...

Hesitating because i was so happy, she's so kind and strong i want to be like her.

Ishino: Seriously, thanks Maika.

Maika: I can't see you Ishino, where are you?

Ishino: HAHAHA. Let's buy you a new glasses first shall we?

She bought me new glasses and walked home with me. Since then we were always together.

Maika: I-ishino...

Ishino: Maika? What's wrong?

Maika: Can you come with me?

Ishino: Sure!

We went to a room, just the two of us.

Ishino: So, why did you take me here, Maika?

Maika: I wanted to thank you for my glasses.

Ishino: Oh it was no problem. Although it did cost my allowance huhu.

Maika: I'm sorry...

Ishino: Don't sweat it! So? What's up?

Maika: Can you teach me how to be stronger?

Ishino: AHAHA. That's it?

Maika: Yes.

I nodded like a fan of hers.

Ishino: There's no secret in being strong. You just have to act to what you believe is right, and then punch your way through your problems!

Maika: What do you mean?

Ishino: As for me, i don't like people who bullies the weak.

Maika: I see i'm weak *sobs*

Ishino: I didn't mean it like that, as for you... you're so cute that i just want to look after you.

She said that with a smile. I looked up to her, i want to be like her.

One day she had a lover. He was nice and kind. Just like Ishino, they're meant for each other. I was really happy for her.

But then when i was in town, i saw that guy talking to another woman and after that they kissed and hold hands.

I decided not to tell Ishino yet. So one time i saw him again, with another woman and lots of other guys. Like a gang. That guy is a womanizer.

I followed him, but they caught me. I sent a message to Ishino before going.
