6 Chapter 6: The Suspects
"Attention! Please proceed to the school's covered hall for an important announcement."
"Attention! Please proceed to the school's covered hall for an important announcement."
The announcement was overheard by the students as it was repeated twice. The sun shone throughout the campus yet, most of the students touched their chests and began trembling.
"In the morning? Are they serious?" One of the students murmured while they walked silently to the hall.
Until one of his classmates tapped his shoulders and replied, "It's all about the upcoming school's fares! Come on! We have to be first in line!"
Little did they know, it has something to do with someone who was on the brink of death a few days ago.
Yet, the group of Sandra hesitat to attend. They felt guilty for what they have done to her. "Wh–what now?! We have to go to the hall and pretend like we don't know anything!" said Lou while crossing her arms.
She looked guilty, but it was too late for her to regret it. They did it, "It is your fault, Sandra! I told you to stop but you are too–"
"No one will be going to speak about that night! Do you understand?" Sandra glared at them sharply, preparing herself to transform into a fatal beast.
No one dared to answer her until "DO YOU UNDERSTAND ME?"
Her voice echoed around the classroom that caught other student's attention. "Y–yes, Sa–Sandra!" All the girls stuttered. Frightened to be punished by the Campus Crush, Sandra.
"LOUDER!"
"Yes, Sandra! We will keep it a secret!" Lou touched her chest while looking at Sandra's beautiful face. She would always wonder how she got pale, fair yellowish skin.
She looked like a living doll and at the same time..., a vampire in the human world. Sandra's mesmerizing light red eyes, pointed nose, and thin crimson lips.
Her perfect thin jawline and long, golden hair fitted to her heart shape face.
"She deserves it! And I won't let anyone hinder my plans!" Sandra took a heavy breath and grabbed her bag from the chair.
"Attention! Please, proceed to the covered hall for an important announcement. Last call for everyone who is still in their classrooms, please proceed now."
Sandra walked into the door without a hint of guilt. She seemed to be a fashion model who stepped perfectly with her friends behind.
Garry, the fool young girl with a beautiful face and the daughter of the richest CEO, covered her face until they reached the said place.
She couldn't herself, hiding at a secluded place to escape from the crime they committed.
The moment they arrived at the covered hall, thousands of students were gathered. No one dared to speak and waited for the school's Principal to arrive at the rendezvous.
Few of the students mumbled about the incident that happened the other day. "Do you know that girl named Halora? According to the faculty, she was rushed to the hospital because of that matter!"
Sandra heard it and she quickly looked into her way. But the group of girls continued gossiping about the suspects who were caught in the CCTV footage.
She tried to control her anger but the girls didn't stop mumbling. "I can't bear to watch the footage! For heaven's sake, she was too hopeless and calling for help until someone appeared and rushed her to the hospital!"
"Stop it, Sandra! No! Do–don't do it!" Sunny quickly pulled her hand before she can slap the girl who's talking about Halora. She knew Sandra very well and she can do whatever she wants to do.
Sandra held her breath, wiggled, and tried to slap the girl. "Calm down, San! You have to swallow your pride and pretend like an innocent!" Sunny looked around and noticed that everyone is watching them.
She hurriedly pulled Sandra away from the trouble, "Sit down! Everyone is watching over us now!"
Sandra came back to her senses upon hearing the Principal's voice. She quickly looked away from the girl who murmured and seated beside Lou.
"Huh, good thing you stopped me from pulling that ugly duckling's frizzy hair!" She scowled and rolled her eyes. "I am an innocent and I am not one of the suspects,"
"Keep dreaming, San. We all know that it was your plan and when the right time comes, the truth will have prevailed in public." Garry told her without knowing that Halora was looking on their way from a distance.
Will Halora disclose the truth about the suspects' identity? Or she will remain silent and pretend to be naive to avoid any conflict with Sandra again?
How long she will endure the pain by herself when she has the chance to protect herself from them?
Would it be the beginning of a real battle between her and Halora or the end of her daydreams?
