Chapter 4 - Newbie cries

Julius filled with anger went closer to Juliet , took off his shirt and dropped it on the floor.

I don't know how you will do it, I want my shirt washed and dried before we close for today, he said in anger. Juliet in fear bent down to pick the cloth but James took it up before her.

Julius! What has she done to you?

Why do you hate her this much?

Why all this? James screamed.

Who calls for your opinion in this matter?         

Wait! Do you mean I should put the shirt on like that? With that stain? Over my dead body! I want the cloth washed an dried, Julius replied.

Do you think she did it deliberately? James said as Julius cuts in.

Deliberately or not, why can't she do it carefully? On her first day, she already cause a scene. Just a demon's doing, Julius said.

Immediately, Janet who is the class representative walked towards James. She collected the shirt as she walked toward to Cynthia.

Take and make it clean, she said

Why should I? Cynthia asked putting on an innocent face.

(Janet been frustrated) you kicked her to make are fall. What is your problem Cynthia? Why are you making the newbie feel bad on her first day in school? Instead of welcoming her, you are disgracing her. What your cause? She screamed.

Back to you Julius, what makes you mighty? Money? Intelligence? Fame? Oh my God! You are nothing but a local champion. What makes you the champion is not by what you deliver but the responses from others. You are intelligent. Yes, we all know.  Born with a silver spoon. Has many awards but to me I regard you are a dullard! If you are intelligent then how don't you know that she didn't do it deliberately but someone kicked her! You this bastard that ought not to be human! Janet shouted as she took Juliet out of the cafeteria leaving the shirt to Cynthia.

Julius felt embarrassed, the only person he fears most is Janet due to her harsh words. He was towards Cynthia and looked into her face for some seconds as he walked away. James moved towards Cynthia.

Cynthia! Be warned or you hate yourself, James said.

Juliet on getting out of the cafeteria, started crying.

Why did he hates me a lot?

I haven't met him before to the extent of have grudges with him.

Why all these? Juliet said as she faces Rachel and Janet.

Davis who is known to be always following Janet around cuts in .

Don't be like that. Julius is always like that since he and James parted from been friend, Davis said.

Do you mean Julius and James are friends? Juliet asked.

Yes, they were ? Rachel replied

Actually, I was also among them. We were best friends but we parted not quite long, Davis said.

But what made Julius changed? Juliet asked.

No one knows except James but they will not tell anybody, Janet said.

Just leave that and be focused, whenever you need anything, just come to me, Davis said

What do you mean by that? Janet asked

No am just  ….  Davis said as Janet cuts in.

Just let her be, we will stay by her, Janet said angrily.

Davis loved Janet but couldn't come up to her due to the fact that he was afraid of her harsh words. Janet on the other side loves Davis but waiting for Davis to come up to her though she never show any sign that she loved Davis.

Cynthia with her gang were washing Julius' shirt.

Wait will you just leave that demon like that? Deborah asked

No that can't be. We have to show her that she has messed with the wrong person, Esther said

But what should we do? Cynthia asked.

Let's pour the soap water on her, Esther said while the other echoed, ' that nice'.

They took up the water and waited for Juliet to pass by but Julius sighted them from a far off. So he could guess what they want to do.

As Janet was about to pass that exact spot where Cynthia and her gang  chose to carry out the plan. Deborah poured out the water.

James who has been following Juliet secretly drew Juliet back. Meanwhile, Julius also was running to take Juliet away from getting wet with soap water but he ended up been the victim. Total silence everywhere, Juliet was already in the arms of James. Julius was wet with soap water. Everyone were shocked asking each other.

What did Julius wanted to do that made him ran over and got wet with soap water? One said.

What will Julius do? Another student said. Knowing fully well what Julius is capable of doing.
