9 9. Don't be a busybody

" Student Rira, just forgive her. You won't lack anything."

" Yeah, student Rira. She's your best friend after all."

" It is normal if there's argument between friends. It can solidified your friendship more."

" Just forgive her, student Rira."

The other students start giving advice to Rira. But, they didn't realise if their parents got insulted by their best friend, let see if they still can forgive that so called friends then.

" You mean, forgive her after she insult my late mother as mistress and my father as two-timing scum?" This time, Rira' tone turned grim and hard.

The present voices getting lower and lower after hearing this. They stiffly turned at Mora Noir with unbelievable expression. It dawned upon them to remember Rira' mother passed away two years ago because of incurable illness.

Did they just pleaded to forgive this kind of person earlier? Jiang Li stumped into silent.

" Sure, I'll forgive her. But, we are no longer friends, then." The ironic tones slapped them hard across the faces. Their face gets hotter when remembering the righteous words of wisdom they throw on her head.

" That...student Rira, we're so sorry. We...we don't know..." one of the pleading students spoke up in ashame.

Rira glance at him without any emotion on her face. " If every single grievances and wrongness could be forgiven easily with a single apology, shall people go around, insulting as they wished?" Another slaps for them.

" You don't know, yes. That's alright, but don't judge people before you know the truth. You can talk about righteousness and fairness in this class, however, I suggest that, please don't bring it out to shame yourself. People are not saint. We're imperfect and have our own ways of doing things." Rira gets up, taking her bag into her hand.

" Don't be a busybody." Then, she left the class.

After a moment of tense silence, the other students dispersed. Mora Noir's face turned numb after receiving the looks of disdain and disgust from her classmates. She looked down at her feet, but nobody went up to talk with her. Her act of grieving over her own wrongdoings made people wanted to scoff. What a dramatic, manipulative girl.

However, at this moment, her eyes swirled with deep, profound hatred towards Rira. How dare she talked to her like that? A motherless b*tch like her should stay at the bottom of society. That slut dared to take away her limelight? She is not Mora Noir if she couldn't takes revenge at this grievances.

Mora Noir dash out of the class with a cold look on her face. Rira emerged from the hidden corner of the hallways and saw this particular scene. She sneered.

She scoffed, " What a friend you made out there, Rira Alona. Oh, well. I don't care anyway. If she wants to revenge, then bring it on." The past Rira were no more. The past Rira Arow also no longer alive. What left in the present and the future was a single being called Rira Alona.

The only Rira Alona.

The first half hours ended with the blaring rings for lunch time. At this time, Rira stepped inside the cafeteria after the whole morning absent. Her hungry stomach keeps grumbling about foods and here she was to buy it.

It seems like someone noticed her and approached with unkind looks. In one glance, Rira already knew what they wanted to do; extort her of money. She stood in the line with that lackadaisical attitude of her, wanting to see how they do things.

" Yo! Look who's here. Walla, our good and generous little sister Rira." The leading person spoke out loud to gain attention from the sea of students. And, he gets that.

The man named John Lee, second year student of class three. This person and his men loves to tease and extort money from students, especially the 'weak and helpless, easily bullying' Rira. But, today...

Heh, someone sending money to her pocket instead. Rira licked her lips with a money hunger flashing in her eyes. She looked down at her fingernails, waiting for the money, cough, for them.

" Sister Rira, today, this brothers of your lack money to spent for foods. How about you pay for us? We can share food with others! Sharing is caring!" John Lee' shamelessness was nothing new to them. Rira smiled sweetly at them, as if agreeing with him.

" Sure! But, hurmm...today I would love to play with all lovely brothers here. How about we play a game?" Her playful and lovely requests were hard to resist, especially for those young boys.

" Sounds good to us! What game do you want to play?" John Lee instantly agreed to her. Its been awhile since he play with her. Remembering the request from that person to humiliate Rira, he readily agree.

" It's not that complicated. It's a hand wrestling. How?" Rira throw a bomb about the game she wants to play out. John Lee stunned for a while before roaring with laughter. He thought it was casual games or maybe mobile games. It turns out only hand wrestling! Is she an idiots or ignorant?

Looking at her tiny frame and stick like hands made it easy for him to break it. Rira stood silently in the midst of the laughter, looking a bit pitiful. However, if they looks closely at her, they would discover a trace of treacherous smile in her eyes.
