Beg for mercy.

(ANNA)

If I had had any sexual activities with any guy, I would have believed I was the one in the school's billboard and not a Photoshop. The person who photoshopped this is an expert. It looked so real and convincing.

It was a picture of me, naked and on the bed with another guy. Who could have done this?" I mumbled absently and that made people noticed my arrival. They stopped looking at the billboard and turned to face me. Their eyes were filled with resentment.

"Shameless," One of the students shouted and spat on my body.

Before I could retaliate, another student threw an egg on my forehead.

"What are you d.....," I tried to talk but Chloe and her group interrupted me with their wicked laughter.

"What a shapeless body you've got," Chloe said, walking towards me. She walked around me majestically, she was throwing me deadly stares and there was a smirk on her face.

"Chloe, why did you do this?" I asked, glaringly. Chloe's smile changed into a frown before she burst into teasing laughter.

"Why did I do what? Don't ask me questions and own up to your promiscuous way. You are a prostitute," Chloe fired, spitting on the floor.

"Don't you dare....," I dashed closer to her, pointing my fingers at her but she shifted back, one of her girls kicked my leg and I fell to the ground. Everybody laughed. I felt humiliated for the first time. I will make sure I destroy whoever did this.

"Oops! Seems you still don't have stamina because of the hot sex you had last night. Pardon my girl's manners, she won't do that again," She said and walked away, but not without giving me that, "it is good for you," look. I clutched my fist as I stared at her back view.

As if the students were waiting for her to leave, they started throwing liquid and solid stuff at me. One even dared to pour flour on my head. They should all wait. I will make sure they have a taste of their medicine.

I gathered all my strength, stood up, and ran towards the swimming arena since that was the closest place I could wash up. I locked the door behind me as soon as I got there and fell to the floor. I was breathing heavily.

I almost fainted when I saw myself in the face of the pool. "What! How do I explain to them that I am not the one? This is my second day in the university for goodness sake. Who is pulling these stunts? I cried out. Tears were threatening to fall but I was too stubborn to allow them to fall. I can't cry because of some bullies who can't even show their faces.

" oops! Tatatata," I heard someone clamping his tongue. I turned and saw Derek, walking towards me and shaking his head, sympathetically.

"Who did this to you? Why are you like this?" He asked, bending to my level and feigning to be concerned. I sneered inwardly and rolled my eyes. Why didn't I think of this bastard in the first place? I knew he will be the one behind the stunts.

"Why did you do this?" I asked, glancing at him with hatred. He stopped what he was doing and asked with a confused look, "Why did I do what? Stop talking and let's look for how to clean you up. You look horrible this way," He said, trying to touch me but I shifted my hands away.

"Stop pretending. I can see through your acts," I declared and his confused face changed into a mischievous smile. I felt like getting up and hitting him hard in the face. I was mistaken. Who else is capable of doing something so despicable as this if not Derek?

"Thank God you didn't let me touch your stinky hand. I would have pushed you into the pool and made you drown," He muttered in a low voice, stood up, and giggled.

"How was the first show? Do you like it?" He asked, smiling like a fulfilled bastard. I felt nauseous looking at his terrible face. I haven't seen a heartless being as he is.

"How could you come up with such a lie, Derek? Why are you trying to ruin my image? Don't you know the kind of impression you are trying to give the whole school about me?" I asked with a shaky voice. I can't pretend anymore. I am hurt. That was painful. The whole school already thinks I am a bad girl and an explanation from me is like pouring water into a basket. Who is going to believe me when my face was glaring in the picture?

"Beg for mercy and I will help you," He said proudly, sitting on one of the loungers.

"Keep dreaming, Derek," I retorted, getting up and walking towards him.

"I will rather be buried alive than kneel in front of you," I said and he laughed. I furrowed my brows, wondering what was funny in my statement.

"Then let's see how far you can go, smelly Anna," He said, standing up and exiting the arena. I fell to the floor as soon as he left and cried my eyes out.

It was my dream to go to a university but it wasn't my dream to be involved in a such false scandal. My parents will be disappointed when they heard about this.

"Derek!!!" I screamed, pulling my hair. My voice echoed in the swimming arena.

It was already gray by the time I left the school. I intentionally left very late cos I was avoiding being seen by the students. People were throwing me a disgusting look as I trekked home. I couldn't blame them. Without being told, I know I look like an insane girl.

Our door was wide open by the time I got home. My heart gripped in panic as I tiptoed inside. I thought a gang of thieves had broken into the house but what I met in the living room was beyond stealing.

When will Derek quit bothering me?
