If people don't respect you for who you are, fu*k them and be you.

"Pfttt , you are such a fool Alex. Who do you think you are. You came here just last semester and you think you can bully the campus belle. Dream on.
She is the reason I'm Donald's bestfriend and vice versa. I pray you change for the better".
They said casually and left.The awestruck boy standing in the hallway couldn't move a muscle because never in his wildest did he ever think he will be humiliated like this. There and then he realized that it is either he change himself or change schools..

In the dormitory
" Why are you staring at me like that Ali, do I have something on my face ?" Hailey asked the girl who is and has been looking at her since they left the hallway.
"Teach me how to be brave" Alice replied with determined face.
" Listen Ali, braveness is not about been taught. It's about becoming one. You don't need lessons before you become one. "Hailey said calmly to the confused girl.
"Alright"
"Now let's pack our clothes into the wardrobe, freshen up and leave for lunch okay!?. "
" Okay she replied still thinking about how to become a brave girl.
"" "" "" ""
After everyone have taken lunch and observed their afternoon naps,gone for supper, they are to go for evening school preps.
"Ali..Ali..Alice ..wake up Alice" Hailey called the sleeping girl the unkempt time.
This bulldozer won't wake but after carefully looking at her, you can see that she is shaking slightly and beads of sweat can be seen on her forehead.
"Oh no..no..no..no..no..this can't be happening now.She is having nightmare again. What atall causes this nightmare. I am patiently waiting for the day she will open up about what she is suffering from. "Hailey said and stood up to wake up the shaking girl .
"Don't..don't.. don't.. don't touch me Dad, I will be a good girl please . Ok... "She murmured in her sleep as if she trying to fight someone but Hailey didn't catch what she said because she was busy waking her up.
"It's me Alice,it's me Hailey..wake up don't scare me like that.hey..wake up" Hailey said almost peeing herself because she is not good at this.
"Hay,Hailey?".
"Yes it's me"
The shaking girl practically jumped and Hugged Hailey tightly like her life depended on her.
"It's alright..it's okay.Im here okay.." Hailey said to her trying to make her relax by drawing circle on her back...
"Hmm.." "Did Vanessa see me?" She asked after calming down.
" Did I see what.."The girl in question spoke coming from the bathroom with her bathrobe wrapped around her.
"Phew.. nothing" Alice said been thankful to God.
" Hay, Should I take the first bath or you will go first"Alice said trying to divert her questioning stare.
"I'm talking to you Hay" she said.
"Do you have something to tell me" Hailey questioned her back trying to see if she will open up to her.
"No.I will shower first" she said and left dismissing the conversation.
"I'm waiting patiently" Hailey yelled from behind her..
" "" "" "" ""
Be honest to yourself.

The next day...
"Aren't you done showering Alice..are you bathing horses there?.. tsk..so annoying" Vanessa yelled from the dormitory.Alice has practically been in the bathroom for almost an hour now . They would have been worried if they didn't hear the shower running.
Hailey was the first to take her bath but this sleepy head Vanessa woke up like thirty minutes ago.Alice was already in the bathroom before she woke up.
Today is their first day in class for the semester. They can't afford to be late.
*Bang*
"Hey bossy chick, what do you want from me huh?Are you in love with me... "Alice said annoying the girl more after opening the bathroom door.. already dressed in her uniform and her hair and mild makeup has already been done.
"Hihi.." Hailey chuckled lightly at her words.
She was used to this Alice.Ever since they started highschool,no one has ever seen her naked .She is always dressed up before she emerges from the bathroom. Nobody know her reason for doing that.They thought she needed her alone time and nobody really cared..but to Vanessa,this is foreign.
"You...you..you..how can you keep me waiting while you get dressed and all that in the bathroom.. bathroom that doesn't belong to you" Vanessa said pointing at her nose. She was so angry that you can literally see fumes coming out of her ears.... She might pop anytime soon.
"Whatever..is either you use the next thirty minutes to finish bathing and get dressed or you can just stand there and blabber around" She said feeling unconcerned.
" Tsk.. urgg''Vanessa said and left leaving loads of fumes behind her. How can someone be this evil.. she just couldn't understand her.
"Do you have to mess with her everyday Ali..she will bark at you one day and that one-day will end in tears" Hailey said to her bullhead friend.
" Whatever..she can't do anything to me"Alice said waving her trump card..
" Who said I can't do anything to you.. I'm just waiting for the right time"Vanessa said emerging from the bathroom with water droplets all over her body . She was literally naked.. a walking stripper.
Alice:" "
Hailey:" "
There is no way this girl has finished showering.
"Hey Vanessa, you forgot something that you came to pick not that you are done showering right" Alice said to the girl trying to convince herself . It's been just 1min 30sec since she entered.. she can't just come out like that can she?..
"I just washed myself ..I'm late already ..I will take a proper shower when we come back from class" Vanessa said wiping herself with her pink barbie towel.
Hailey:". "
Alice:". "
This time it was Hailey who was almost drooling because she was shocked to the core...wait what!!?..uh uhh... something is wrong..
*When you dream,dream big..."The school's syrene went off indicating that, the students have 10 min to reach the school assembly hall..
*7 min later*
Three well dressed female students can be seen emerging from their dormitory with their backpacks .
