Slapped

Author POV

Charlotte entered the class and all eyes in her head. Guys were drooling while some ladies were jealous.

"Hello". She scoffed in her head and sat down.

She was wearing a white and blue cropped top with a white high waist skirt.

"She is as beautiful as a goddess isn't she". A guy blabbed dreamily in front of his girlfriend.

"Really". His girlfriend scoffed.

"What!". He asked.

"You are in love with her now and not me,you better

watch out,I've seen you million times staring dreamily at her. If you continue this way,our relationship might end".She finalised and made to leave.

"Wait". Charlotte noticed it also and she hurriedly stopped her.She held her hands in hers and went to the guy.

"I will admonish you to love your girl. I don't wanna be the reason for a broken relationship. Sincerely, you are not even my type so don't ever think we can work together". She scoffed and eyed him then left.

"I'm sorry". He scratched the back of his head nervously.

"You had better be".She snapped and left.

Thirty minutes later,students started trooping in.All of them stared at her and left for their seats.She is getting used to them already no doubt.

"Hi". She greeted a guy named Donald Adam who came in. She doesn't know if it's a crush; she just found herself attracted to him. They have been kinda close lately and have been talking since then.

"Good morning cutie". He beamed, making her cheeks heated up.

"Morning". He sat beside her and they talked about random things and the lecturer entered.

"Oh,it's miss serious face". Charlotte whispered to Donald and he chuckled. The students named her miss serious face because they have never seen her laugh even if someone cracked the funniest joke. She's always frowning.

"Am I boring you miss Ray and her pardner?". She asked.

"Hmm no...".

"Alright, let's get down to today's topic. It's gonna be a project. The class president will group you guys and will brief you about the project. You fail it you lose a total mark of twenty. Good luck everyone. The class president should follow me". She concluded and left the home room class.

"I don't like that girl you guys called president". Charlotte faced Donald frowning.

"My advice for you is to stay away from her. She can mess up your life within a few minutes". Donald whispered and Charlotte grinned.

"Oh please. You had better advise her not to step beyond her abode else she will regret messing up with a crazy girl called Charlotte". She bragged, making Donald smile.

"Just be careful". He patted her back and she nodded.

"My birthday is this Saturday, you're invited". She beamed happily.

"Really? I guess I'm flattered and honoured". He said bowing.

"Who is the most brilliant student in social science?". Charlotte asked him.

"Your brother ofcourse. Didn't he tell you". He voiced surprise.

"Well he did but I never believed him. I've never seen him studying".Charlotte scoffed. She finds it difficult to trust Alex ever since he lied about Junk kook.

"Your brother is the one leading this institute".

"Wow Alright".

"Alright guys. Just coming from Mrs. Serious Face office and this time I will be grouping you guys. The brilliant one will be the group leader and I'm gonna mix the dull ones with people trying their best. You guys are to search for an impossible love story that is love that seems impossible but that once existed.That means it must be a true life story and I was instructed to group girls and boys only. This is how you guys will be grouped. Group A are:

Jasmine Bart

Holly Antony

Theodora Hayden

Esther Bobby.

Oh thank goodness. I'm not part of it. Charlotte was grateful in her heart.All the names called were the names of people who hate her for being close to Alexander except Jasmine.

"And their leader will be Charlotte Ray".She concluded.

"What!. I can't be their leader. I'm not even brilliant, talkless of becoming a leader". She protested.

"Oh please. I'm the class president and trust me I know you're even more brilliant than me. You have been pretending all this while like you are dull but you pass all subjects both class work and assignment even though you're new". She voiced and the class started murmuring.

Oh heavens I'm so going to kill this lady. She just broadcasted me like I'm sought of newspaper. Charlotte thought.

"So you have been pretending to the whole class all this while".Esther said.

"You are so good at pretending I must commend you for that". Theodora nagged.

"You are a snake in green grass". Holly said.

They kept on nagging her and Charlotte felt she might explode anytime soon.

"Just shut the fuck up guys. People have different reasons for their actions and you guys have no fúcking right to question their authority".Donald said and there was silence in the room.

"You can't blame her guys who know she might be sleeping with the lecturers to get high marks. Who wouldn't be ashamed to say such". Esther mocked and Charlotte's next action shocked everyone to the core.

She gave Esther a thunderous slap and everyone gasped including the class president. They touched their cheeks as if they were the one that was slapped. Esther's face turned red and if she said anything, she might cry soon.

"It stings". Her cheeks were screaming out to her in pain.

"I came to this school to study and whatever I do with my life is none of you guys damned business. You guys have been getting on my nerves but I just decided to keep my cool but you overdid it. You guys had better not cross your boundaries else you will regret messing up with me. Mind your damn business and I let me mind mine". She raged and stomped out of the class.

"Woah". The class shouted. They weren't expecting it. And the fact that Esther couldn't do anything made them more perplexed.

"Is she sick?". Someone said, referring to Esther.

"Like the almighty Esther couldn't do anything when Charlotte slapped her?". Another said in bewilderment.

"Mehn that slap was hot".

They were saying all this to Esther's hearing and she ran out in embarrassment.
