Regretful day

Dazzle was so worried. She went to school as fast as she could the following day.

She saw Liam sitting in their classroom. He was facing the window with a blank face. Dazzle noticed some bruises and marks all over him. She couldn't help but feel she was the reason.

She walked to him slowly. He saw her and stood up with a glare. She was so scared but said, "sorry, please tell your dad and mom I am sorry".

Liam asked " DAD? WELL, HE ISN'T MY DAD. MY MOM IS HIS TOY. SHE GETS PAID FOR THIS". Dazzle was shaken.

She didn't know that Liam's mom was a prostitute. He suddenly strangled her telling "You know my secret, now die..." Dazzle begged to stop, she couldn't breathe at all.

She was saved when Jenny entered the room to give a notebook that belonged to Dazzle to her.

She was shocked to see Dazzle crying and Liam almost choking her to death. She stopped Liam and slapped him.

Dazzle said "JENNY, no, It was my fault, I.." before she could complete. Liam held her wrist harshly and said: "SHUT UP AND DON'T TELL ANYONE". Dazzle nodded. Jenny hugged Dazzle worried.

Dazzle scolded her bad luck. Wherever she goes, trouble follows her. She thought it is because she is weak.

It had been weeks. Liam isn't talking with Dazzle. It was so hard for her but she thought she deserved it. She was walking back to her class after the break.

On her way, she heard many whispers and voices. Many teachers, students were having their mouth covered, phone flashing.

She peeked in but later joined as Jenny called her to take a look at something. It was Mr Choi. He was lying lifeless in the floor. Dazzle was shocked like any other students.

She hates to say but he kind of died similarly to her cafe boss. They both had a slight hit in their head but died because of it.

Everyone is surprised because no one has ever seen someone die because of a slight hit in the head.

Police and doctors arrived. His dead body was taken away. Dazzle and her best friend Lisa discussed it.

But had no clue on how it happened. Dazzle later went to the library to calm herself down and read some books. She saw someone looking at her. She turned and found a few girls smiling at her.

They walked towards her. She immediately recognised them. It was her seniors. When she was about to walk towards them, she felt a stinging pain in her hand.

That is when she noticed, two lines were emerging from her skin in her wrist. It was red.

She ignored it and walked towards her seniors. They smiled and said "Dazzle, you are so beautiful. Want to join us for a party ?". Dazzle didn't know how to decline in.

She wasn't interested in parties but it was her seniors so she accepted. They said to her to wear a nice hot dress. She thought she could borrow from Lisa and nodded.

Dazzle went back home, she was a bit happier but still sad because of Liam's coldness.

She borrowed Lisa's dress and heard all her advice about not to drink alcohol or not to trust any males.

Dazzle nodded and rushed towards the party's venue. She was a bit taken back when she saw many girls with revealing dress and flirty guys.

She didn't want to go, she thought of going back but her seniors dragged her in.

Later, when she was inside she was so lonely because she had no friends there.

Suddenly one of the girls offered her a drink. She didn't know it was spiked with a high amount of drug to make Dazzle lose control and end up as per their wish.

Dazzle drank it. After minutes, the drug started working but Dazzle didn't lose control.

It was because Lisa kind of guessed this would happen to Dazzle. After all, Lisa had gone to many parties and experienced it.

But didn't want to hurt Dazzle by telling her the motive of her seniors Because Dazzle was excited about the party.

So she gave her a tablet that will help her to be conscious without Dazzle's knowledge.

The senior girls who didn't realise Dazzle is stable dragged her with them to a room.

Dazzle felt something is wrong. They pushed her in a bed forcefully and locked the door. Dazzle started getting worried, she knows what this is all about.

As expected one of her senior men came in. She begged him to leave her alone but no. He hovered above her and started hurting her. Dazzle who was not ready for this had no choice or clue what to do.

Suddenly she felt a stinging pain again. She saw her hand and found an extra three lines added in her wrist but the strange thing is the first two lines were red but these three lines were black.

Now she has a total of five lines in her wrist.

But she had no time for thinking about her wrist. She just hoped someone will show up.

She is being assaulted by her senior but no one is here to help her. Suddenly the fire alarm went on. The guy got up and rushed out without even looking at her.

Dazzle wore a hoodie from the nearby closet and rushed out. As soon as she reached out.

They announced that it was a fake alarm. Many people were shouting in frustration. She thanked the god and ran away before her seniors come back for her.

She went to Lisa and cried.

She also showed her wrist and those lines. Lisa said, " why does it look like you were counting something and noting it in your hand ".

Dazzle thought for sometimes but she couldn't get the best answer than saying it is a coincidence.

Later she went to school the next day, she saw Liam being hit by his bullies.

Dazzle eavesdropped them from behind the wall. A boy said, "Liam you know something, I know your mom". Dazzle was shocked. Liam Asked "what?"

The other guy replied, "SHE CAME TO MY HOME YESTERDAY TO SATISFY MY FATHER YESTERDAY".

Liam was so angry. He got up and hit the other guy. Then all the other guys hit him because they got shocked by this behaviour and spilt water on him.

After those guys left, Dazzle went towards Liam. She took a piece of cloth from her bag.

The same cloth LM used to cover her eyes. She took it and tied it on Liam's bleeding wrist.

She realised Liam was looking at her. She tied a knot on his hand and looked at him.

He looked at her eyes and pulled her for a kiss. Dazzle didn't stop him.

Dazzle felt like she already felt this lips. They kissed until she noticed another black line being drawn in her hand on its own. Liam noticed it too.

She felt like it is trying to say or remind her something.

Liam rubbed his thumb on those line on her wrist with a worried face. Later,

They walked together after school to Dazzle's apartment. Liam said he liked his gift from her. Dazzle was happy to hear that and hugged him with tears.
