Chapter 7 - A Lonely Flower

Hmm... I don't know if this is a good idea but I also don't know if I'll remember it later so I'll tell you now. About what happened after I left. Draken told me some time later. Remember at the time I had no idea this went down.

Draken stomped off angrily but it wasn't because he was mad at me.

He stomped into the store and immediately grabbed Fani by his collar. "What the hell did you do to her!?"

"Chill out, Dude."

"Do NOT tell me to chill out! Answer the question."

"She was being hella rude," Fani stated.

"You should know. She knocked over your cake." Emily added.

"That wasn't a cake. It was a strawberry and basil ice-cream cake with meringue and pink peppercorns."

"The name has cake in it." Fani shrugged.

"You have to say everything! Without a doubt, Rosie loves this dessert more than anyone else in the world! And she says it's an absolute disrespect to call it anything else!" Draken explained.

"Whoa, fanboy much. Wait... Emily?"

"Yes!" She replied perkily.

"Didn't you call that girl, Rosie?" Fani asked.

"Yeah, why?"

"She was THE Rosie? The one you never shut up about!?" He asked Draken.

"So what if she is?" Draken asked.

"That thing was for her?" Emily exclaimed.

"Yeah. They don't serve strawberry and basil ice-cream cake with meringue and pink peppercorns on Mondays so I brought the ingredients and begged the chefs to help me make it for her. She would have been so happy."

"I thought Rosie was some random nobody. I didn't know it was HER. This makes things more interesting."

"What do you mean by that?"

"It was just a joke but I accused her of seducing you to fix her reputation. And added that I wasn't going to let her kill you like she did her parents."

"You did WHAT!? You absolute asshole! No wonder she said all that stuff. She made up a whole bunch of excuses as to why I couldn't be her friend anymore. She even called her favourite cafe a shabby shack... Next time mind your own damn business!" Draken then stormed off.

Yup. That's basically what I was told. I'm even madder now. I could have had strawberry and basil ice-cream cake with meringue and pink peppercorns! Anyway, Let's continue with what I experienced now.

When I got home my sister questioned me but I lied. I didn't want to think about Draken.

I slept peacefully dreaming of what great friends Draken and I could have become unaware of the trouble that was brewing overnight.

When I woke up in the morning my phone was blowing up with more death threats than usual. I was tagged multiple times on a post but I didn't even want to check it at this point. I blew it off as somebody found something new to hate about me and it blew up.

But it was much bigger than I thought.

I went to school that morning. Everyone was glaring at me. My locker was defaced with horrible insults and my desk was worse.

Even my teachers picked on me.

I wasn't called to the principal's office so I thought it wasn't that bad.

Then I was attacked at lunchtime.

After I was pushed to the ground they shoved a phone playing a video in my face. It was of yesterday when I made a scene. But it was edited to make me look worse.

The voice from behind the phone was Emily's. She did this. At the time I didn't know why but knowing all I do now, I believe it was because she heard the conversation between Fani and Draken. She already disliked me and found a way to make me look bad but she edited it and posted it online because she was jealous of Draken's feelings towards me.

He's my #1 fan. He will never love anyone more than he loves me. And that made her jealous. She wanted revenge and this is how she got it.

Pathetic.

I was so pissed off I attacked the girls who tried to hurt me. I beat them unconscious. The principal caught wind of all the incidents and called me to her office.

I went.

"I'm not happy to see you here again." She looked upset.

"Neither am I."

"I gave you the benefit of the doubt!"

"You opened your eyes to the truth." I corrected.

"Don't play games with me, child!" She yelled at me.

"Check your evidence before you accuse me of anything. Talk to Draken. Confiscate her phone and check your so-called video of accusation."

"Fine. But what about those girls in the bathroom? They were unconscious."

"Security cameras. They attacked me first."

"You have an excuse you everything, don't you? Little delinquent." Ms. Pims glared at me.

"Check your evidence. Let's see whose wrong."

"Too bad for you. Your fate has already been decided. We called your sister and announced everything on social media." Ms. Pims mocked.

"What!?"

"I'm sorry but the evidence is right there andβ€”"

"No! I refuse to listen to any more of your garbage! If you actually cared about your students you'd check your evidence before making a mess!" I stormed off angrily.

While I left I heard a bit of their conversation.

"Tch. So rude! What else do you expect from someone raised without parents? Tsk tsk."

"Clean up your desk in the morning." Madam Principal ordered.

"What!?"

"I'm an orphan. If you have a problem with us, leave." She stated firmly.

"I'll write a formal apology but please don't fire me."

I couldn't hear anymore. If I could I wouldn't remember.

'If my sister knows I'll be punished. Badly. Sister won't be sister anymore. I worked so hard to earn her love. It can't all shatter like this! I can't have her hate me again!!! Why!? Why do I have to go through this?!'

'Emily? Fani? ...Draken? No! I can't blame Draken. After thinking about it he did nothing... No, he did. If he hated me like everyone else none of this would have happened. No! I can't blame him for not hating me. It doesn't matter anymore. He probably hates me now. Perfect. I'll be alone again. Sister was right. I should always remain 𝐀 π‹π¨π§πžπ₯𝐲 𝐅π₯𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐫.'

'I knew deep down that I wasn't worthy of things like Friendship and Love. My parents died because of me. Because I shouldn't have anyone. That's why sister becomes a different person when I'm bad. I did something bad and lost my possible friend. Was it the homeless man I ignored? Did I not listen to sister well enough? Was it my lies? Doesn't matter. I was bad. I shouldn't be scared of sister I deserve this.' Tears poured out of my eyes as I admitted sister was right.

'I got too relaxed. Too hopeful. I need to remind myself of how terrible I am. The mean comments. I need to read them!' I grabbed my phone and searched for the recent posts. It wasn't hard since they were trending.

"I never knew she was so self-centred!"

"She actually dared to slap Vasuki!? All he did was call her out! What a brat!"

"Who does she think she is!? Does she expect everyone to worship her!?"

"She even knocked over Draco's cake!!! That's a special item they don't usually serve on Monday! I know because Draco's obsessed with it."

"If you are reading this Miss Flower, Kill yourself!"

"Nobody likes you, spoiled brat!"

"Do you think the world revolves around you!?"

"Die!"

"Bullies like you don't deserve to live!"

"Like if you want to find out where she lives and teach her a lesson!"

"POV: You're scrolling through the comments to see if anyone mentioned if Angelwood High has taken action yet"

"Go jump off a bridge."

'Special cake only served on Mondays? Strawberry and basil ice-cream cake with meringue and pink peppercorns!? It does look like it! But they don't serve those on Mondays... No. He didn't leave for the bathroom. He went to get the chefs to make me my favourite dessert. He was a super fan I'm sure he knew it was my favourite and got it for me. No... I could have been in heaven if it wasn't for those stupid people!!! Stop it, Rose. You don't deserve heaven.'
