"What’s going on here?!" A voice roared in the cafeteria causing the whole throwing competition to co to an end.
What had taken them so damn long?! I wondered, unable to see past myself because my eyes were covered with the mixtures of so liquids that had been thrown more than a hundred tis.
When Noah had chosen to make an object that needed to be thrown on, the others in the cafeteria had taken it as a go ahead to replicate the ss.
Now, everyone in the cafeteria, except I don’t know a few probably like Noami, had emptied their lunch packs on . What a waste of resources. I thought, wondering how much money had been wasted today, resources that would be used for more important things.
That’s what happened when you have hooligans as children, I mused, my ears akin to the steps of students dispersing away from , probably making way for whenever it was that had just co in.
The voice sounded like the principal, but I doubted that Mr Johnson would concern himself with petty fights unless Naomi had really made a report. Her father was an important council mber of the pack after all.
"Who is that sitting on the floor? Stand up!" The voice echoed.
Surely, that was the principal. I tried obeying his command but my legs refused to move no matter how much I tried. The floor was slippery too. I tried again, using my hand as a support system to get myself up but to no avail.
Then, a hand grabbed by my arm, probably Noami, and helped to my feet, choosing to stay beside , despite my filthy state. Naomi for sure. No one would have done that. I had no one in this school.
"What is your na, girl?" The principal asked . Instinctively, I knew that he was peering down at .
"My na is Maya, sir. Maya Holins." I replied, my voice very low and soft. But he was a werewolf so that wasn’t a problem.
"Maya Holins? The wolfless girl??" He questioned, and I clamped my teeth together in frustration wishing that I would disappear right in front of them.
Couldn’t I just develop so magical powers right here and then and fly away, shocking them all. Couldn’t the goddess show rcy and lift up away from here, or was she waiting till I committed suicide? Well, even if I did, I wouldn’t give my soul to her. She had forsaken .
The principal must have been tired waiting for my reply, because he asked Naomi the next minute to take away from the cafeteria so that I would clean up myself in one of the bathrooms.
I wanted to stay behind to know the punishnt that might be lted on the Brekans but that I discounted the thought. They wouldn’t be punished of course. They were the Alpha kids.
The punishnt that would be given will be given to all, probably no food in the cafeteria for a week, or just light snacks for a month. But there would be no direct punishnts to the three hooligans.
Sighing dejectedly, I followed Noami out of the cafeteria, my head bent low, not that I could see anyone or anything. I didn’t want to give them the satisfaction either by wiping off my eyes, since Noami was already holding my hand.
Outside the cafeteria, I inhaled deeply as I felt the cool breeze glide over my skin thick with food. But the inhalation caused to start coughing up the next second. Turns out I had inhaled food particles along with the cool air.
"Are you okay, Maya?" Naomi asked , tapping my back frantically, causing to wonder how she could touch the pile of food at my back comfortably without hesitation.
A few more minutes, and I was okay. I nodded then, muttering a thank you, my eyes still closed. There was no need to wipe them, since my hands weren’t void of food particles. I didn’t want anything entering my eye. That would be another problem on its own.
Imdiately we got to the locker rooms, Naomi pushed inside one of the bathrooms, admonishing to take my ti and wipe myself clean.
"I will be back in five. Let get you clean clothes." She said, before walking out of the locker room, leaving alone.
For a mont, I panicked wondering if so of the students would co in here and continue the bullying. But then I shrugged the feeling away, not caring if they decided to continue. I was tired of running after all.
I turned on the shower and stood under it, letting the water run all over and wash away the food on my body, without raising a hand to aid the process. I just have to think.
Placing my head on the wall, I let my mind ruminate on the next step after this bath. Ho of course. No way was I staying in the school another minute. Probably today I would be able to convince my mother about hoschooling. I wished that the principal would tell them what had happened today. It would aid my convincing.
So minutes must have passed before I decided to involve my hands in the clean up process. It took a while before I got squeaky clean, disposing my clothes to the side of the bathroom. I wasn’t going to wear them again, ever. I probably might leave them here.
A knock sounded on the door, and I opened it gingerly.
"Here, not much, but it is clean." Noami said, handing her sportswear. She was right. It was funny but it will do the job of covering up. Not that I had a choice though.
"So, what will you do? Going back to class?" She asked after I had dressed up and co out of the bathroom.
"No. I’m going ho." I answered. "I can’t stay here a minute more. Could you help get my bag from the class?" I pleaded with her, and she nodded without hesitation before walking away. I breathed out in relief, blessing her soul for being a good help to today.
