She knew one thing though, if she decided to insult....., this proud piece of loaf would never again be as confident as he was. He wouldn't have the stupid lunatic confidence he has to stand in front of Alice Bennet and try his attitude on her...l mean honestly..it was like dipping a fresh wound into boiling oil...
But bad boys never reason do they???... Or so.. You think.
" backing down huh..where did the proud hippo go..now listen here, you should know who you're messing with, not only in this school, but also in this city..if Emily comes whining about you again, I'll have your head in a platter.." He threatened, his voice so damn serious.
Alice just stared at him, convincing herself that it was best to keep calm and maintain control. She wanted no trouble,....no drama..she was focused on keeping calm, ...breathing in...and brushing this shit off...
And besides...
she didn't want to have another motivational speech inside the principals office.
Well in the end, her appreciation to her aunt for all she'd done for her won over and she decided to let this one just slide of
she decided to just ignore.. Because even Jesus prayed for the forgiveness of those people who persecuted him..
It wasn't worth the worry, she said she'd stay out of trouble, and she did..well she kinda did..I mean she struggled...
, well that was until the stupid bad boy decided to showcase his guts....his power...his mightiness...his so called fame...
Wrong choice boy..
" just as a reminder, " he said before raising the palm of his hand in the air. Everyone gasped, as the crowd rose in havoc, murmurs arose, everyone prepared for the unfolding scene...ready for the action.
But with who..ohhh. Sorry,...with whom...whom exactly were you trying to act on...who were you trying to look for fame with...
Some took out their phones , you know generations, they just had to film this ones,
they had to record, it would be "trending" for months..
With the obvious headlines..
Chainville's baddest most feared norm has done it again...
Or do they think that's how the story ought to end..
and that's when the real drama unfolded
, Alice patience disappeared, her smile rode away, her moods went bad, so fucking bad,
She felt her iner self ramble with the real her,as her soul fought hard to put down the spirit, the ego, the demon, the real living beast inside her that was already threatening to break free...
This was everything that she feared, this was the very thing that she always tried to hold back, she never let her inner demons out to play,
until,..... right until a man, a mere boy, a stupid boy dared raise a hand to slap her..
She stood there waiting to feel it, to feel that hand land on her face, to feel his hand make contact with her skin...she wanted to feel the stinging impact it would have brought...
and then...just then... she'd be dead sure, goody goody Alice was long gone....
Deep down, somewhere where her conscious stood...
She prayed and pitied the boy, because he didn't know he was signing a death contract,it would be real disappointing for such a handsome face to end up six feet under..
but of course, he still had to prove himself...
In no second, his hand came roughly against her cheek, causing her face to move sideways as the sound of his rough hand made a mark on her cheek causing the skin to rise temperature.
Her cheek became hot, and it slowly turned red, her head took only seconds, to register what had just happened..
She didn't feel the pain, she only felt the rage, and the anger. In a second, she closed her eyes, gritted her teeth so damn hard she could have chewed them..
And then she saw her dad in her mind, and the memories pierced so damn hard,they could have caused a tear, but Alice was never one to cry, unless the pain pierced in too much... she had promised herself never to let a man, any man... raise a finger on her. Her father had done enough, she fought the tear that tried to spill, opened her eyes and turned her head.
Her eyes displayed everything,..... anything and ....nothing, and thats when she lost the battle against her inner man and she finally decided, I'm done locking in my demons,.....
... come out and play you fuckers!!!
" that should teach you,now walk your fat ass out of here.." The boy screamed his lungs out..
At such moments,people always run away from Alice,
When she was mad
And quiet
Her silence meant nothing good..
No..nothing good at all...
One thing was certain in her head , he had just signed his death contract..
SHe wanted to tell him to write a will,.... or to at least be prepared,..
because as she would be practising her prison posts, he'd be somewhere in Manhattan.. Lying in a damn comfy hospital bed.. Unable to raise a finger in acomma.
She slowly stepped back, and turned around, her steps, were slow, they were certain, she walked to her car.
She was never planning to get started, she just warmed up.
She touched her cheek, and felt the swollen hill of finger on her skin,
She traced her thumb on the affected area,
And that's when it stood clear..
it's about to get bloody really really really bloody...!!!
, sorry aunt milder, she said to her self as she reached her car and opened the damn door.
I tried so hard to let this one in....but she just had to come out and play..
She whispered to herself..
She reached for the piece of weed she'd just wrapped this morning, and took out the lighter.
Alice leaned against the car as she lit it up and took a puff ...as it always calmed her senses, this time, it fueled everything up..
I mean...you forget...this isn't Alice were talking about..
Everyone looked at her amazed, people still held their phones, that was until the stupid boy moved up to Alice accompanied by his girlfriend..
" Is the fat in your body already reaching your ear buds, I told you to get the fuck out of here, bitch!!" He screamed as he snatched the piece of weed she just reacted halfway and put it in his mouth.
One big mistake...
" you shouldn't think you'd scare me because you also smoke weed, you're just a fat hippo escaping from reality. Emily is my godamn girlfriend, next time you think of a acting crazy, I'll have you in a hospital bed." He threatened.
This time, she didn't even smile, not even to ignore or put her shit together, because Alice was long gone, and the devil that always set her insides on fire had finally been granted the wish he always begged for, and so, he came out to play allitle..
Only two things made her angry, " first, I was only going to put you in you bed for a few days because of raising your hand, but when you made it attain destination and meet my golden skin, I saw it best to be lenient and put you in hospital for a couple of weeks, but now. ..now that you've also taken my weed, I plan on putting you in your mother fucking grave you messed up nigga...."
She explained rather calmly as though prescribing a kind of medication to an ill patient.
He didn't even have time to react, because Alice walked to the back of her car and opened the boot.
She looked through it for some moments, what's best for you silly boy. She asked as she began choosing through the heap.
" Since you're just an innocent spoilt kid, I'll be really polite with you.." She said as she pushed her hand inside. Rattles were heard, as she seemed to be searching through some metallics. She smiled suddenly
, " there you are baby" she exclaimed as she pulled out a stick.
It was no ordinary stick, it was a hockey stick, a different kind of hockey stick, a little heavy on the bottom. It had a leash on the part she held,
She slowly guided herself back to the boy who by now had become a tamed piece of sheep. His eyes displayed horror as Alice gave up her mischievous smile and put on her business face,
" get ready, you're gonna be out for long ..!!!"
