Chapter Five
During lunch time, a girl walked up to me. She slipped into the chair beside me, a smile on her face.
" Hi! I'm Victoria, you could call me Toria" She said
" I'm Anny"
" Umm... Anny, could we perhaps be friends?"
" Well...
She seemed way too basic to me but she's someone.
" Sure... What class are you?" I asked.
" I'm art, the class adjacent to yours "
" Oh okay!"
" Friends then?" she asked.
" Yeah " I said, smiling one of my sweetest at her. She returned the smile and we began talking.
A while later, a group of girls walked into the lunch room. They were dressed in pink leather jackets, pink shiny short skirts and white sneakers. They had dark lip gloss on and dark eye shadow. They all had gums in their mouths, chewing recklessly.
" Those are the stair-way girls, mean as fuck" Toria said.
" They look cool " I said
" Yeah but they are loose"
" Why would you say that?" I asked
" You just watch" Toria replied. One of the girls walked up to Sal and I watched her silently.
" Well, well, well ... you're that handsome guy they're talking about, right?" she said.
" You can as well see that for yourself" Sal replied.
" Well Mr. Handsome, I want you to be my boyfriend " she said.
Wait! What! I stared unbelievably. Sal seemed even more shocked.
" Even if I don't like you? " he said.
" You can't possibly not like me" the girl said.
" Why would you think that?"
" Duh! that doesn't need an answer, you know! Where would you find a girl like me?"
" Well sorry to burst your bubbles miss, a girl like you isn't what I'd like to find" Sal said and half of the room laughed.
" You've got two days to change your mind Mr." the girl said and walked out with her girls behind her.
" Well that was crazy! " I said.
" That's just a bit of the drama. Rio once dated one of them, Sandra. He played her for a fool and made her cry in front of the whole school. She was publicly humiliated by Rio who had made her kneel and apologize to Samantha in the presence of everyone "
" What had happened between She and Samantha? " I asked enjoying the gist.
" She had warned Sam to stay away from Rio and got her beaten up. When Rio found out,he broke up with her and made her apologize to Sam in front of the whole school. Sam, being a bitch, slapped her and made her kneel before she let her go. Sandra stayed away from school the whole month before returning. The whole shit injured her pride and I heard she's still heels over Rio"
" Well she's just being stupid"
" You wouldn't call love stupidity "
" I don't believe in that shit "
" Why don't you? "
" Cause it's all lies. One minute someone's telling you they can't live without you and the next minute they saying the same to someone else. I mean I do it a lot so I know"
" Well that's you. I do hope you fall in love someday " Toria said and I shrugged.
" That's the same as impossible" I said.
Toria just shrugged and I was glad she let the topic go.
" Well... Can I call my friends over? Maybe you could be friends with them too"
" You've got friends?" I asked. Thankfully she took it as a joke and simply smiled.
" Yeah, Elena, Eureka, Nancy, and Isabella" She replied.
" That's cool. I'll love to meet them " I said.
" Okay, I'll go get them. Be back in a while " Toria said, I nodded and she went away. As I watched her leave, Sal came into my mind. I looked around the lunch room but I couldn't find him so I stood up and left to look for him. I found him at the staircase. He was talking with a couple of guys, probably his new friends.
" I really don't like this school " Sal said.
" Why not?" one of them asked.
" The girls here are cool, I take that back not all of them are. They are crazy, it just feels really weird here "
" You're just new, that's why. It's not quite a big deal, it'll roll over" another guy said.
" You're saying the way these girls are behaving is cause I'm new?"
" Well... Anny isn't that way, is she? "
" Anny is different tho. She's cool "
" I knew you'd say that. She's also new "
" Yeah and you two could work something out since you think she's cool " the first guy said.
" Nah I think I wanna leave. I'll tell my aunt that I can't stay here. She'll surely see to it that I get a better school " Sal said.
" Well lucky you. The choice is yours "
A part of me felt weird after everything I just heard but I shrugged it off and climbed the stairs past them. Sal's gaze met mine and he winked at me making me smile. Jeez!
I went to the library and found myself a seat. There, I saw Rio and Natalie. He was holding her hand and she was blushing, as red as a tomato. I rolled my eyes and sat down after picking up a book from the shelf.
" So what of Samantha? " I heard Natalie say.
" You know I'm just playing with her. She's not as sexy as you " Rio said.
" Really?" Natalie asked.
" Yeah. It's just you honey, no one else "
I smirked as I listened to his lies. I think he's good, tho I know he isn't half as good as me. No one is a better player than Anny Hart. And God! These girls are so stupid. Who in his right senses falls for those kind of lines. What's my business anyway??? My business is with Styles,I guess and playing this Rio of a guy if he chooses to cross my lane...
