Chapter 13 - The witch in the enchanted garden

I took a walk and looked for another way to get there, after a few minutes of walking I saw a sign that said garden.

Wow there is also a garden here I followed the sign and after a long walk, I reached a very large gate. The gate was eaten by the rust and surrounded by visible plants, I walked closer to it and pushed it to open, it was a bit heavy but I manage to open it, it create a clear indication that it was old and rusty.

*creak creak creak creak*

When I opened it, I could see all around the different types of plants and flowers, I am not familiar with its types and names, but there is only one thing I can say, this place is very beautiful, it looks enchanted forest.

When the wind blows I smell the fragrance of the plants and flowers here, it's so peaceful here, and all you can hear is the chirping of the birds.

I followed the pathway made of cement and I carefully observe the plants here as I walk, for the comfort of the plants I did not notice that I had gone so far, I was about to leave when I heard a rush of water I followed the sound and it led me to a very beautiful waterfall. I walked and sat down to contemplate the water, the water was clear you can almost see the rocks under it, I dipped my hand, and it's cold.

This place was very inviting, I feel like I am in paradise.

I didn't know that there was such a place likes this here in school, outside the gate the campus looks small but it's not, I lay down on the grass and made my bag a pillow.

I suddenly yawned, the wind was drowsy. I put on my headset and played a piece of music, I slowly closed my eyes until I was completely asleep.

I've been watching Seven sleep peacefully on the grass, I decided to stand here on the rock where I was seating and I approached her place.

She is still unaware that I was close to her. I removed the strand of her hair that covered her face.

"You are so beautiful I remember her with you. Sleep well because it might be your last sleeps my Cinderella" She whispered while caressing Seven's beautiful face.

I walked away with a smile on my lips

"I have prepared everything just for you my dear.." I whispered in the air and I laugh

Frightened laughter filled that quiet place

The sun rays hit me in the face, half-awake.

I got up from laying on the grass and yawned, still sleepy I looked at what time it was.

My class will start twenty minutes from now so I need to hurry, I got up and shook my uniform, I also grabbed my bag and left.

When I arrived I our classroom they was already there but Zendaya wasn't there yet.

"Sup?" I told them

I sat down on my chair and put my bag on Zendaya's chair after all she wasn't there yet. I'm still a little sleepy

"Seven did you hear the news?" Alma even moved just to ask, I don't care about the news it's more important for me to think about how I can make money

"Nope and I don't care" I answered lazily

*beep beep*

My phone rang I check my phone; I received a text from Seth he's asking me what time is the end of my class I texted him back.

"An old woman allegedly tried to enter the president's office this morning"

"Old woman? What is her reason?"

"The gossip is now spreading that she has a daughter who studied here and graduated in 2018"

"And then?"

"They said that her daughter went crazy and went in a mental institution because she had become violent and this is more the scary thing she killed their neighbor's pet dog after that she went to the house of one of her professors and mercilessly stabbed him in the neck, the head seems to have almost separated from the body" The last thing she said caught my attention

"Disgusting right?" that's Judith

"So what has the president got to do with what happen?" I asked confused

"Because she's blaming this Serenity University for what happened to her daughter, I just don't know what the school has to do with it"

"Maybe the reason is that the professor gives her a low grade" Judith's opinion

"It is still not acceptable. You will kill just because of the grades? Maybe she's crazy" Eunice is right

The grade was a superficial reason for her just to kill that professor; I think there is another reason why she did it.

Alma was about to speak when our professor suddenly entered the door followed by Zendaya
