Chapter 6
Sandra's POV
Whatever excuse I give her she wouldn't buy it. I raked my mind quickly trying to come up with a good excuse to convince her. When it's a matter of making Cat believe in the story is really difficult.
"Why are you asking me that? I was drunk, how would I know what happened after that? When I woke up in the morning I was already in my room. I thought it was you who dropped me off" I said pretending to get angry. But inside I was hoping she would just drop this matter.
Cat frowned "I didn't" she looked confused. "When I returned back you weren't there. Then I—"
"Okay, let this matter rest aside. Since she was fine then there's nothing to talk about" Ben said, closing the matter which I am glad about. Finally, yes.
"Yeah, I think you are right," Cat nodded and I sighed in relief. "But I must say you missed the night. I thought we could enjoy it together since we are the only one with limited friends edition"
"Apology," Ben smiled. "I didn't know it would take me such a long time to settle things in there. I couldn't just leave her there without assuring her safety"
"It's fine Ben, you really don't have to bear any guilt. Besides, the party was too boring. There's nothing to see at all" I shook my head.
"Wow, look at them, do they remember that this is a university campus and they should at least give a little respect to this place?" Cat pointed towards one table and rolled her eyes. I turned my head only to see Shaelyn sitting on Liam's lap talking and laughing with her friends who seemed not bothered at all.
"They didn't even care about the fact everyone was watching and their act seemed more like a dirty show in the eyes" Ben shook his head.
Compared to their earlier activities this was nothing at all. When I think of the action played in the store room, I think they are showing little respect here.
"Just ignore them. After All it's their freedom to do whatever they wants" I shrugged carelessly.
"Really" Cat snorted, "is it their freedom to even showcase live porn?" Ben suddenly chuckled.
"Sometimes I guess why she is even wearing that dress? It's better for her not to wear anything. Everything could be seen so whether she wears or not doesn't make any sense" Cat added with a frustrated sigh. "If she could, she would walk around naked wouldn't she?" This time Ben laughed, throwing his head back.
"What's so funny?" She glared at him. "I am being serious here"
"I can't help it," he said, still laughing.
I rolled my eyes at them "why are you giving your attention to them? I told you to just ignore them. Besides after the last exam you don't have to see them anymore. So just chill"
"Right," she nodded. "I would be glad"
"And you stop laughing before flies find their new home in your mouth" I said and Ben immediately stopped his action. He looked at me like he was something horrible. I smirked inwardly.
"Let's go, I am done already " I got up.
"Hey wait I am coming" Cat got up and so did Ben. We walked towards the door but someone blocked the way.
I let out a sigh before turning around "what do you want Shaelyn?"
"Hi Sandra, I have not seen you for quite a long time. How have you been?" She gave a mocking smile.
"Better than you I guess" I replied.
Her expression suddenly changed, "what do you mean?"
"Do I need to explain it? I am living better than you. You can't understand this small thing?" I frowned. I know I used to be a nerd but after the cheating incident I gave up living like that.These kinds of people don't understand things until they are slapped hard on the faces.
Shaelyn looked furious but suddenly she revealed a smile. I saw Liam walk towards her and pull her closer to him. His eyes traveled towards me then smirked. Are they challenging me?
"Come on Sandra, don't be so rude" Shaelyn said "I am just worried that you will be sad since Liam chose me over you. You know we enjoyed Valentine's night so much. And we got to know that how much we are in love" she placed her head on his shoulder showing their lovey dovey action which only irritated me.
"Shaelyn, I have a class to attend. If you are here to sing your romantic story then you can do it freely but at least don't interrupt others with that" I said ignoring her dreamy look.
"You sound more jealous to me?" She smirked "you don't have to. Because Liam was never yours and for a handsome man like him, you're type is not the right choice"
Is she in her right mind? Did she even hear what I just said? Suddenly frustration increased in my chest. I stepped closer to her, looking straight in her eyes.
"I won't waste my time feeling jealous for someone who couldn't respect others feelings. But I must tell you something" I leaned closer to her "I think you need to choose a better place next time" I moved away.
I smirked inwardly when her expression changed "after all it's not good behind the locker always you know"
Liam and Shaelyn looked shocked while I left them and walked out of the cafe.
"What's with that face?" Cat jumped in front of me. We are already out of the cafe and standing at the big campus yard.
"What?" I asked.
"What happened behind lockers?" She asked. Her eyes were bright and I knew she got my hint to Liam and Shaelyn.
"You are thinking too much" I tried to move but she blocked my way again.
"Nah,nah, nah you are not going anywhere until you tell me everything," she shook her head.
I sighed "you won't let it go?"
"Nope," she grinned.
"Fine, I saw in the morning that-" before I could complete, a two black car drove inside the yard. The screeching sound had us look towards it. Few bulky men stepped out of the car and lastly a man wearing black blazer paired with blue jeans and white shirt stepped out. My eyes stuck on him and I don't know why I felt like I had seen him before. But I can't remember where exactly?
"Oh god, who's that? So handsome" Cat almost screamed. "Is he a newcomer? Oh my gosh, if he is going to attend then I should find a way to make him my boyfriend" she gawked at the man. Well it's not only her but I also couldn't move my eyes from him.
"Who are they?" Ben asked beside me.
The man roamed his eyes around the campus and finally landed on me. I felt my body shudder and suddenly I wanted to run and hide myself from him for some unknown reason. He walked towards me and his face became more clear. That face is so familiar. I had the feeling that I was in such a dangerous situation.
Run Sandra! Run! My mind screamed. I stepped back intending to run. I better leave the place first.
He is the same man of that night isn't he? The blurry vision of his handsome appearance flashed in my mind. If I am not wrong he was the man I slept with that night. But why is he here? I was so ready to turn around and run but before I could take a step he was already in front of me and grabbed my wrist. How come he is so fast? Is he for real?
I heard Cat gasping loudly. She must be shocked, but at this moment I could be careless about her.
"Where do you think you are going?" His musky voice reached my ear.
"What are you doing? Let me go" I tried to free my hand from his clutch. But it's too strong.
"It's fucking no" he almost growled.
"Hey what are you doing? Let her go" Cat and Ben tried to stop but they were held back by the bulky men.
"Let them go" I almost screamed.
"So concerned darling?" My head snapped towards him. He smirked at me, " forget about them you should think about yourself now"
"What do you want?" I gritted my teeth. What does this man want now?
"Oh, you are asking that only now?" His smirk grew wider as he leaned a little and whispered "I want you baby. And now you are going with me"
Before I could say anything he hoisted me up and threw me over his shoulder and walked towards the car.
"Let me go" I punched his back trying to free myself but it's like I was punching a wall not willing to move at all.
I can hear Cat and Ben's shouts while from the corner of my eyes I can see Liam and Shaelyn also come out of the cafe. They also looked shocked. My vision became black when I was pushed into the car. I tried to open the door but it's locked. As he got inside before closing the door shut. It was like closing my way out.
He turned to me and smirked "It's time to go home"
And I felt like my world had collapsed suddenly without any route to run.
