ACAPELLA'S POV.
The bright shining light brought me awake. I opened my eyes slowly and raised my hand to prevent the light from blinding my eyes then I realized I was naked and wasn't also in my room.
" Where am I ?" I muttered and tried getting up a little from the bed to scan my environment but yelped instantly due to the throbbing pain I felt in my thighs.
Then instantly everything that happened last night came crashing back and flooded my brain. I instantly turned to the side of the bed but saw no one except a note.
I summoned courage and picked it up with trembling hands. I opened it slowly and broke down into tears at what I saw.
" Thanks for last night, can't remember the last night I popped someone's cherry, especially a soon-to-be Nun".
I can't remember how long I stayed on the bed crying but it must have taken hours for I heard the 9 pm bell ring meaning my confirmation was in an hour.
I immediately jumped out of his bed and got dressed before dashing off to church.
At the entrance, I was stopped by a smirking Cruella.
" Here comes the nun" She mocked but I just ignored her and was walking past her when she held me back by my hand.
" I don't have time for this Cruella," I said angrily yanking her hand off mine. She gave a stunned expression for I had never done that to her before but soon it was replaced by a glare.
" Where are you coming from?" My heart skipped a bit at her question but I managed to control my expression and replied.
" None of your business" I attempted to walk past her again but froze at her next words.
" Did Austin give you a nice time?" She asked sarcastically.
' what did she mean by that?' I wondered. Then it hit me and I hastily turned to face her. She had a victorious smile on her face at my expression.
' Lord please no, do not let it be what I am thinking' I pleaded in mind.
" Cat got your tongue" She mocked. I was about to reply to her when I heard Mum's cheerful voice.
" Acapella, there you are," She said and I turned slowly to see her mum with a smile plastered on her face, Dad too was behind her and they were all giving the ' I am proud of you' look.
' Would they still be after I told them what had happened last night?' I wondered and scoffed at my naivety.
" It will soon be time," Mum said holding my two hands in hers. I struggled to hold back my tears at such a gesture.
' How long I had wished for this, their love. I finally got it and now it was about to be taken away ' I thought.
" Let's go get you dressed," Dad said and Mum nodded. They ignored Cruella's presence and when Mum saw I was not moving, she attempted to push me toward the dressing room.
"Mum, Dad" I called out slowly with fear. "I have something to say," I told them while releasing my arm from my mum as they both looked at me confused.
"What is the problem Acapella? "Dad asked. "Are you nervous about your dedication? If it's about that you don't need to worry because we would be right there beside you." He said while mum nodded with a smile.
"It's not that," I said.
"Then what is it? There is not much time left." Mum reminded me impatiently and I gulped.
"I am no longer pure." I broke the bombshell.
At first, they did not get me, they both looked confused and I think suddenly it hit them for they both screamed while Mum rushed to me and held my shoulders.
"Acapella, this is not the time for jokes," Mum said praying inside her for me to be telling a lie, even though I wish I was, but too bad it was the truth, I was not telling a lie.
"I don't think she is." My dad said noticing my sad look and looking at me in disbelief.
My mum moved back from me and then suddenly she rushed towards me and gave me a resounding slap even Cruella was shocked by her actions.
I put my palm on my cheek and looked at her stunned, with tears rolling down my cheeks.
"You whore!" She screamed as she struggled for Dad to free her so she could do more than just slap me. My cheek stung badly.
"Why do you always bring disgrace to this family, why are you born with such bad luck?" She asked fuming and still struggling to release herself from dad's hold.
"It's okay honey" Dad pleaded.
"Yes Mum, Dad is right," Cruella said as she came closer to where we were standing.
"Don't waste your energy on her, she is not worth it." She added.
Suddenly my dad turned to look at me with a disappointing gaze and that stung so badly because I felt like a failure.
God, what am I saying? I am already a failure. I have been one from birth, I mean nothing ever worked out or went as I wished.
"Acapella" Dad called with a disappointed tone. "I am so disappointed in you." He said as both Mum and Cruella threw me looking filled with disgust.
"As your punishment for disgracing us, you will go out there in front of the whole congregation and priest and tell them of what you have done and then ask for forgiveness."He said and I gasped.
"We will not let you soil our family name any longer!" He added and I nodded to his words.
You guys might be wondering about why I did not tell them about the rape or who did it but no one will believe me.
Austin's father was the mayor of this town and besides even if it was true, what was going to be my excuse for going alone to his house at night and not informing anyone about it except I was looking for something?
Besides they did not even bother asking how I lost it, they just assumed I did it willingly which means they would not believe me even if I told them the truth so why should I bother wasting my time arguing about it?
"I wish you were exchanged at birth, if that had happened, we would not be experiencing such disappointments and disgrace right now." Mum spat with a sneer in her eyes as she finally wiggled out of Dad's embrace and left the room with Dad following her leaving just Cruella in the room with me.
