FARAH'S POV

“I like you, please go out with me!”

I glanced at him with widened eyes. My whole body unconsciously trembled when I looked at him. Although I like you sound sweet, coming from the mouth of this man, it was terrifying.

My eyes started to redden as my whole body trembled. I shook my head excessively as I looked at him with indifference and fear.

“N-No... I-I don't want to!” I exclaimed with courage and face as I didn't even dare to look at him and immediately run away as if my life was on the line.

THE NEXT DAY after that, I noticed that everyone's eyes were all focused on me and they looked at me strangely. My brows furrowed as I couldn't help but be curious.

My eyes wandered inside the classroom and saw that some of the students weren't present. I didn't think it was strange at the beginning.

However, when I stepped foot inside the classroom, a bucket of cold water poured at me from above, making me shiver from the coldness.

I looked at my classmates who seemed to treat me as if I didn't exist. They didn't even bother to lend me a hand nor care about someone who was bullying me.

I pursed my lips as my eyes watered. I endured the coldness that I'm feeling and when I was about to sit down at my table, my whole body shivered.

A cold electric current ran down my spine.

My eyes widened in disbelief and horrified after seeing the four thumbtacks on my chair. If I happened to sit on it, for sure that my ass would be bleeding from the pain.

I even smelled the stinky scent on my table and there was vandalism on my table. Some words are too dirty.

[Bitch]

[Slut]

[Die]

Those were the words that were written on my table that made me feel weak and helpless.

It must be that bully.

He was the only one who could do this to me after I rejected his confession.

It must be him. I'm sure of it.

The more I think about it, the more nervous I become. I pursed my lips as I tried to calm my nerves. I chose to sit on the other chair while the discussion continued. They didn't even mind someone like me who was drenched.

The bell rang, serving as a reminder that it was already lunch break, I was arranging myself and preparing myself to eat myself since I brought my lunchbox because it was expensive to eat in the cafeteria.

However, I noticed that all of my classmates were in a hurry to leave the classroom. My brows furrowed upon seeing all of them leave, leaving me all alone in the room.

I decided not to mind them and opened my lunchbox preparing to eat since I got hungry.

I was too engrossed in eating that I didn't even notice the ‘click’ sound of the door that indicates that the door was locked.

“Finally we're alone.”

A man's voice that was filled with luster, made my whole body stiffen as the spoon and fork that I'm holding in my hand, fell onto the ground.

I raised my head as I looked at him with a terrified expression.

My eyes glanced at the door.

He seemed to guess my thoughts and sneered. “You can no longer go out. This is our time, Farah. It wasn't nice to reject me like that.”

“Y-You... W-What do you think you're d-doing?” I tried to ask in a calm tone way but my nervousness was kicking in which leads me to stutter.

A smirk appeared on his lips as he licked his lips and I couldn't help but shiver.

“You guess?”

After he said that, he grabbed my waist, making me scream as I struggled to break free from him.

“Don't resist, Farah...” He said while groaning as he kissed me on my neck, making me scream for help.

Tears started to fall down my cheeks as I tried to push him away to stop him from doing what he was going to do.

His hand grabbed my chest, making me tremble in fear and anger.

“D-Don't!”

As if my instincts were kicking in when he was about to tear off my clothes when I kicked him hard on his groin and broke free from him.

I could hear his groan and curses all over the room as he tried to stand up to catch me but I ran faster than him and unlocked the door.

It was as if I escaped from prison and was finally free, I let out a deep breath in relief.

I ran as fast as I could while tears kept streaming down my face and my whole body was trembling.

When I managed to get out of the academy, I suddenly heard the gossip of the students whom I passed by

“Have you heard, a man jumped off the building!” The student exclaimed while gossiping about it to her fellow friend.

When I heard this, I didn't put too much of my mind into it and was about to walk away when I heard the next word of the student that caught my attention.

“I heard he's a bully! Someone saw him bullying someone. But now, someone found out he suddenly jumped off the building while he was running in the corridor.”

“W-What?! Is it true? What's his name?”

My whole body was trembling when I was listening to the student's conversation about a bully who suddenly jumped off the building.

“I heard his name is Aaron.”

It was as if something snapped in my mind that made me feel numb.

It was as if I became deaf to everything. I couldn't hear their conversation talking about the bully named Aaron. They were making a lot of hypotheses and ended up with the conclusion that he was fighting with others and was pushed down by them.

I couldn't hear it all. My mind was wondering about his death. How could he suddenly die? I could still vividly remember the way he assaulted me.

Out of curiosity, I raised my head and looked up at the building.

My eyes linger on the familiar figure that was standing on top of the roof.

I couldn't see his face yet I felt a strange familiarity with this person.

Why do I sense familiarity with this person?
