Elsa POV
"I can't believe your mom is getting married again Crystal Leaned against the locker raising an eyebrow.
"I know right but she acts like it's no big deal but it's already her third Marriage" I shrugged pretending not to care
I felt a Knot tighten in my Stomach. It's not a big deal? I feel so bothered about it right now. My mom is going for her third Marriage. I still remember the last one who had pretended to be rich, but when my mom found out, she immediately Cancelled the Marriage. So yes, I will say it's a big deal. Even seeing my Soon-to-be stepbrother makes it worse. It could have been someone else.
"Well, on the bright side, at least the guy is rich, so you'll be swimming in cash," Crystal laughed, covering her mouth.
I stopped walking and gave Crystal a funny-looking gaze. She saw my eyes squinting and my lips pressed against each other. I felt shivers down my spine. A bright side? All I see is just a man that my mom wants to use I doubt if I would get any.
"Yeah, because that's exactly what I wanted, a very rich stepdad." I rolled my eyes, smiling at Crystal as I closed the locker.
"Anyways...do you have any idea of his name? also, when are you going to meet him soon?" Crystal Smirked, Wiggling her Neck.
"His name is Nicholas; he's a Rich businessman who's not known. My mom has been secretive about it, but we are moving to his place this weekend, so I will get a chance to meet up with him," I replied, My eyes fixed on the School banner at the top.
"Girl, you're about to leave the luxurious life, the yacht, fancy cars, and a life of absolute privilege." Crystal Widened her eyes, hitting me with her elbow.
I chuckled; why was she more excited than me? I still haven't found something yet about this whole marriage to laugh about. Yeah, it's cool about the cars and maybe the yacht, that's if there's any, but to me, it's not.
We both giggled looking at each other, We Held out books closed to our chests as we walked towards the White door by our right, The hall was filled with teenagers laughing and yelling about what they liked, it's College and everyone had their favorite person or group, I and crystal had just ourselves, The fluorescent bulb was brighter than ever.
We both went to the first table, sat down, and dropped our books. I became very uncomfortable the minute I saw Roxy staring at us from the other side of the class; she got up walking slowly to our table. I tapped Crystal's Lap to indicate to her about Roxy coming to our table, Crystal Sighed.
She sat on the table before us and placed her Legs on the chair "Oh.. look who it is.." She yelled Till her voice covered half the class "It's the daughter of a Wh*re, The heiress herself"
The whole class's attention turned toward us. Everybody kept quiet and stared in our direction.
"Ignore them, Elsa, don't let it get to you. They are just jealous of you, and you might get out of this town," Crystal Bringing her mouth to whisper in my ears.
"Hey Elsa...So I heard your mom is snagging another one; what's the going rate? It must be a high rate to Cop a rich guy this day," Roxy Leaned closer, Wrapping sarcasm around her voice.
I Groaned, Staring at the book in front of me, How did she get this news? Roxy must be this jobless to do a quick research and find out about it; yes, I know she lives a street away from us, but How did she get that information about my mom so fast?
"She's probably used to it; her mom is on Husband Number 3," Tiffany Blasted her words hit my chest.
My heart increased in its rage. It went from my chest to my stomach until it came back and started hitting the chest again; if she continued like that, my heart would break through definitely.
Roxy got up from the table and walked behind Me playing with her fingers.
"Elsa, how does it feel that your mom's only Skill is Just to marry rich guys alone?" Roxy Leaned, Behind me, dropping her voice.
Crystal couldn't take it anymore. She had been groaning close to me. It got to her limit and she couldn't stand her best friend being bullied by Roxy.
I was trying my best to hold down my voice., I didn't want to say anything, but she kept on going, and it was Pulling and biting my skin already. I had to say something about it quickly.
"You don't know anything about my mom, so why don't you just keep your mouth shut?t" I Screamed, Smirking without holding back; at this point,t I wasn't even scared anymore I wouldn't let her get away with disrespecting me.
Tiffany, Sensing the Tension, started yelling around our table, "Fight! fight Fight!"
The class kept coming around and forming a circle around our table, Roxy saw this as an opportunity to embrace us
"You're just pathetic, Roxy; all you ever do is make people feel miserable all because you hate your life." I snapped, clenching my fist.
I smirked, looking into her eyes. Of course, I felt good about standing against her; I noticed my class was laughing at Roxy, which made me feel motivated to face her, my chin was raised, and my arms were crossed on my chest.
"Oh yeah, at least I'm not a Charity case just like you," Roxy Growled, pointing at me.
Roxy's chest was pumping air, Was she pissed about what I told her? Roxy's eyes were red, I felt she had a plan although I was scared I didn't let her see it on me, She stood in front of me and pushed the Lab Jar from the table, and it fell on the floor close to me and one of the pieces cut my Calf, my eyes widened seeing blood gushed out.
"Aahhhhh!" I screamed Holding my leg as Blood started dripping
Roxy Stood frozen, Was this her plan all along? I feel what I said got to her, and now she is overreacting about it.
"Oh my God, Elsa," Crystal rushed, bending to her knees. "Now look what you've caused," Crystal Shouted pointing at Roxy.
"I...I didn't mean to," Roxy's fingers vibrated.
Tiffany noticed the Rest of the students were returning to their seats. It was almost time for class; nobody wanted to be caught by the professor.
"Come on.. we have to leave before the professor comes in" Tiffany Whispered to Roxy, pulling Roxy's arm
The Door was pushed open. A man stormed in, and the whole class looked toward the direction of the door; I didn't look up right away. My attention was on my leg, which was bleeding. The whole room went dead silent.
A collective gasp of a single breath was pulled from the class "What's going on here?" A husky voice yelled, covering the Lab.
My heart fell into my stomach, What is he doing here? No, he can't be The New Lecturer who came in yesterday that I missed School.
"Professor Axel!" The whole class Said in a Collective Voice.
My Eyeballs were shaking, seeing his Tall figure close to the door as his name ripped like a shockwave around the classroom.
