Lily is that true you are dating a guy in school, wait till I tell brother at home.
Molly screamed, you guys are siblings, your brothers are the richest in town, that means Lily is rich.
Oh my what a shocking information. I said to her, and James I am not dating anyone, Yout girlfriend here is in love with a guy that is in love with me and she always looks for way to bully me in school.
James and John stared at Molly like she had grown two heads, you dare to bully my sister and now you want to date me came James voice as he was so angry with what he heard.
Babe it is not like that, Molly tried to defend herself.
I do not want to hear your silly excuses, from today do not come close to me, he said walking away.
If I hear a whisper or catch a glimpse of you bullying her, you will answer to me and my brothers John said and left but not before rubbing my head with his hand and scattering my hair in the process.
Hey it took me twenty whole minutes to style her hair Betty said, sorry Bet he replied and scattered her hair too.
Heyyy, Bet screamed at him as he ran out.
They are so annoying we both said before sitting down. Molly what are you still doing here Bet asked her.
You stole my first boyfriend and you just have to take the second one with you as well. I will get you for this, babe I am sorry she said running our and chasing after James.
That was fun I said to Betty and we both agreed it was.
The bell rang and we both head to our different classes, Chemistry for me and History for her.
BETTY POV
I am Betty, I have being friends with Lily for as long as I can remember, we both lost our parents on the same day, and we have being through a lot together.
We both made each other feel complete, no competition between us, just sisters but not by blood.
Many people tried to sow seed of discord between us, and i am sure today will be no different.
Walking into my history class, I sat at my favorite seat by the window, brought out my materials for the class while waiting for the teacher to come in.
If it isn't LIly's shadow came Lora's voice, Lora was the class bully, someone nobody wanted to offend, but I was not scared of her, I just don't consider her worthy enough to answer to the rubbish she utters.
Taking our my ear piece, I plug it into my phone and played my favorite song to block out all of her words, I know my action will pain her, and it definitely did as she reacted so badly.
Lily's shadow can't you hear me, are you trying to prove that you are not her shadow, or am I correct In my accusations huh.
She shouted but still she got no reaction from me.
I could hear my classmates laughing at whatever she was saying.
As Lora was about to say something else the teacher walked in, take your sit students.
Your Examination results are out, I will call out the two students with the least grade and the two students with the top grade.
Luke was the second to the last, and Lora was the last, her script was empty.
Mason as the second to the top and Betty as the first. Lora I will advice you to be more like Betty instead of walking with your crews.
Betty see me after class she said.
Ok teacher I responded.
Thats all for today students she said before walking out
I took my bag and was walking out of the class when Lora stopped me.
Before she could utter any statement I raised my hand up and told her to shush her mouth.
Lora take on someone who is in your level, my silence doesn't mean I am stupid,I just don't consider you to be worth my reply.
Do not let me answer you the way I want to answer you cause you won't like it.
I told her before walking out leaving her in shock.
I was having mathematics with Lily, we always meet at the locker before going to class together.
I saw lily by the locker, hi Lily I said to her, hey Betty I missed you, we did our handshake before walking to class together.
Maths, I love maths, maths is the best, maths is to sweet she sang as we walk towards our class.
I did not give my normal reaction to the song and that made Lily suspect that something was wrong.
Hey Betty she called, I noticed you are not your usual self what's wrong, you know you can tell me anything.
Nothing is wrong Lily, I just don't like maths, I lied.
Hmm OK then she replied, but I can tell she did not believe me, but she did not persuade me. And I appreciated that.
Walking into the class we sat down, waiting for the teacher....
