[23] THEY KNOW WHAT YOU DID

Reaching Tacha's room. I quietly close the door behind me and walk to sit on the chair beside her bed while Clara sits beside her.

Only the sad look on Tacha's face softens my heart... Now, I am regretting saying all those hurtful things to her.

I think this girl sitting on the bed with her back rested on the wall needs help or maybe she is being threatened by someone who is still mysteriously anonymous to us.

Our eyes met, this time she didn't look away, I was the one to look away. " Thompson". Tacha says in a voice that could hardly be heard. I gasp and groan at the mention of the awful name. Everything concerning the dude irritates me now.

Clara and I shared a look as Tacha kept quiet after the mumble over Thompson's name. So it was Thompson all this time.

"Thompson, was the one?". I ask softly avoiding anything that would make me use the wrong word when I remembered what Clara said about Tacha not knowing how to start the conversation with us.

Tacha sighed and turned her face from me avoiding my question. "You can tell us okay? I can help if... I know the details of what happened that day okay?". I suddenly feel her, I feel the sad air that hung in the room, I need to assure her of her safety. "Nobody will hurt you okay?" I add.

She turned to me with something I ain't sure of in her eyes "Promise?".

"I promise". I told her and Clara smiled at me. I know she loves my response to Tacha. I myself feel the same too.

"They know what you did". Tacha says to Clara. Clara and I shared a questionable glance before looking back at her. "They knew you tampered with the drinks on Lara's first DMGIRLS party night".

I gasped at her word and wondered. "How could that be possible... I mean no one saw me! And-and when we walked into the room everybody was already wasted enough to even think what they saw was false even if they saw me! ". Clara says in a panicked voice. "They were, right Lara?". She asked me. I nod just to cool her already troubled mind even though I had no idea she planned on tampering with the drinks. It was after that night that Clara told me she's been carrying roofies around anywhere she goes after what they did to her.

Was that why Christy kept saying she danced with Stephen to make underthink the feelings that they might know about our actions.

"They might be wasted that night or might not be, but I heard Isobel telling the group about that night". Tacha says and that one caught me. Isobel?.
