Chapter 19 - ~FIGHT FOR MY WAY~

It was a new day, Nina did her usual routine and left for school. She walked into the school elegantly as usual, but this time as she walked to the class all eyes were on her. The eyes that stared at her enounced something fishy. She felt embarrassed and hurriedly walked to her class.

As she stepped into her class, it was noisy but the noise came to an abrupt stop and all eyes were on her.

" Is it true"? They inquired, showing Nina a post from the school blog.

" Um...it's..it's not true " She was flustered.

" Nina Branks and Theophilus Parker To be engaged Very Soon " She read silently, and there was a picture of their engagement rings next to the post.

" Theo, that jerk. He must have done this" She muttered angrily.

All attention were on her, the front of the class was crowded by curious students. She was disappointed and ran out of the class.

" Nina "!! Kate called out as she ran after Nina.

Theo on the other hand saw the post on the school blog and the first thought of who might have perpetrated this bruit was Marlia, his sister.

" That little punk " he muttered angrily and left for Marlia.

" Why did you do this "? He snarled as he slammed Marlia hard against the wall.

" Me ? It was me who did this? I guess you really had a smart intuition after all " she laughed.

" Shut up and go straight to the point " Theo ordered.

" Fine, if you say so. It was a revenge for posting a picture of me crying on the school blog " She smirked and shoved his hands off her .

" You Know, what you did cost me quite alot. Let's see how you'll tackle yours " Marlia said and ran off.

" Hey stop there I sure will kill you " he barked angrily and hit his fists against the wall ferociously.

" Nina!! wait!!" Kate hollered and Nina came to a halt.

" It's okay, I know it's just a bruit. You don't have to run away, all you have to do is to prove them wrong " Kate explained.

" The rumor...the rumor, it's not a lie " Nina replied and Kate's jaw dropped in shock.

" You..you are getting engaged to Theophilus Parker and..then..you.. you'll both get married"? Kate raved.

" Yes, it's all true, but I don't want to. I don't like what's going on, if only I could stop all these mess " Nina complained.

" It's okay. I am really sorry about all these mess. But, how did this information leak "? Kate wondered.

" Theo, he must've done it " Nina postulated.

" I am going to meet him, he must be out of his mind " Nina said and stormed out.

" Be careful " Kate warned.

Theo was with his friends when Nina stormed in.

" Theo we need to talk " she said as she grabbed his arm and dragged him but he wouldn't budge.

" Hey kitten, whatcha doin' "? Theo asked as he shoved her hands off his.

" We need to talk, and not here " she replied.

" You mean privately " Theo smirked.

" Anywhere would be fine " Nina answered.

" Say it here, or do you wanna confess your love to me " he said facetiously and all his friends laughed.

" Love to him? Oh my God, this guy is so pathetic" Nina thought.

" Fine, why did you post this "? Nina blared.

" Oh, you mean to say 'why did you post this' " he pointed his finger accusingly at Nina.

" I believe it was you who did this " Theo bluffed as he moved gracefully towards Nina and leaned in on her, a smirk curving at the corner of his pink lips and then she spat on him.

" Oh...that was not good " Theo's friends whispered amongst each other and quickly disappeared from the scene. Theo looked at his cloth with disgust and glared angrily at Nina. Before anyone knew it, he threw his palm across her face and the sound of a slap echoed.

Nina held her cheek astoundedly, Theo lifted his hands to throw another slap across her face, when someone held his hands.

" It's not right to hit a girl " Andrew warned spitefully before he let go Theo's hand.

" And what gives you the guts to stop me " Theo blared abruptly.

" I can't let you hit her " Andrew blared back and Theo punched him on his face. Andrew lifted up his face and touched his lips, there was blood. He immediately gave Theo a fierce blow on his nose and Theo fell to the floor, grimacing. He was about to pounce on Theo when Nina, who was in tears held him.

" Please, stop " Nina cried.

" What is going on here "? The principal said from behind, and the students who gathered to witness the fight hurriedly dispersed to their classrooms.
