The classes ended and recess began. Their recess lasted for one hour.
The students rushed out of the class while some didn't.
Few girls strolled towards their new classmates. The five girls didn't give them any attention and followed on with their business.
Among those old classmates was the Queen bee of their university, Ziya Stewards.
She was the most popular and famous girl in their university and this fame made her more arrogant and haughty than she already was.
She used to bully the freshers before but as she got promoted to her last year in the university. Ziya started to bully people in broad daylight without worrying about getting any red signal from the authorities as her family was one of the trustees of the university. It gave her freedom to do as per her wishes, slowly she and her friends formed a group, especially a bullying group.
Together, they started to torment their juniors to such an extent where few of them even committed suicide yet no legal action was taken up against their dangerous and life taking behaviour. This made them think that nothing bad could ever happen to them. Even law couldn't pluck a single strand of their hair. All of this occurred because Ziya being well known couldn't afford to get a stain on her reputation.
Therefore, she had to look after her fake friends also since those only got the courage after meeting and joining hands with her. Ziya assured them that as her friend none could retort and fight back them. They felt to have gained an invisible strength and superiority.
Although Ziya addressed them as her friend, it wasn't the truth. She liked the attention and spotlight. Since they thought they were exemplary to rules. Their bullying turned into violence. If their victim tried to disobey their commands, they would sort to violent and physical harm.
Ziya angrily banged her hands on the table. She was annoyed after getting ignored by the new girls.
"Aye!! You morons!! Can't you see me standing before you?" She growled at the girls yet her eyes were looking viciously at Athena.
While Athena didn't heed to Ziya's tantrums and kept reading on her literature book.
One of Ziya's lackeys snorted, "Ziya, it seems like these dumb heads can't even hear…. Their ears are just as useless as their non-existent brain."
Her concentration was directed towards Sarah. She despised the way Sarah flirted with the boys. She didn't like how the boys had acknowledged her.
She folded her arms in disdain as she gazed at Sarah. Meanwhile, the other five girls acted as if they were alone in the classroom and the girls standing ahead of them were in actuality air. They disregarded them.
"Girls, can you hear some unnecessary bugs buzzing around us?" Iris looked at her friends, sitting beside her on both sides.
Grace put down her pen, "I can listen to it and it is disturbing." Her face morphed in disgust.
"Chillax, beauties. These pesky bugs must be jealous of our beauty and have come here to bother us."
Sarah commented with her eyes stuck on her phone.
"Hey!! I found a hilariously funny video. Let me share it with you."
Sarah exclaimed in excitement. However, her phone was seized from her hands.
The same girl who had been glaring at her had taken it away.
"Are you fu*king stupid? Can't you even see? Or are you looking for trouble?" The girl proclaimed since she could feel their hostility.
"Give it back," Sarah dismissed her previous words. Sarah's nonchalant behaviour impelled the girl to hold the phone tightly in her grasp.
Her grip was just like the snake clutching his prey with his scaly body.
"Sarah, calm down. Don't let your anger control you. And you, whatever is your name, listen to me crystal clear as I won't be repeating myself.
If you love your expensive nail craft hand, then it would be better for you to give the phone to its owner."
Grace confronted her as she knew Sarah very well and also her terrifying anger issues.
The girl scoffed, "Haa… What can she do? She doesn't know our supremacy here."
She tightened her clasp on Sarah's phone.
Iris put her hand on Grace's shoulder when she noticed her shoulders shaking with outrage.
"Grace, you listen to me. If you also let your emotions rule you, our whole plan would fail."
Grace froze after her brain registered Iris's statements.
Iris observed it and she understood that Grace was finally thinking rationally with her brain and her feelings and emotions. It would be a big blunder if their covers are blown off.
"Good, now let's calm down the storm within Sarah."
Grace nodded her head at Iris's statements as she agreed with her.
"See, now you are behaving according to your status." The girl wielding the phone retorted when the other five girls stopped talking back to her yet she didn't pass off Sarah's phone to her.
"I am done with your trashy talk. I waited long and gave you time to ponder over your actions but since you wanted to experience this desperately," Sarah heaved out a breath.
Everything happened within a blink of an eye that they couldn't comprehend until they heard a high pitched and rough scream.
Instantly, Ziya covered her ears as the shriek was noisy and hurt her ears. She turned towards the commotion and there she witnessed one of her companions, crying and sobbing as she gaped at her hand.
The hand which was previously holding the phone had been twisted at a right angle facing to her side. Even her fingers were twisted at odd angles in different directions.
Ziya was astounded to see it. As she couldn't remember anything like that incident to the girl.
The girl kept yelling and shrieking in pain and grief.
While the five girls were already standing up and tidying their table before they went out of the classroom. They didn't give a penny of their time to Ziya and her group.
