𝟎𝟏. HER

𝐑𝐨𝐬𝐞'𝐬 𝐩𝐨𝐯:

She is running wildly to the bus stop. The people around her seemed to move in slow motion. She does not care about where she is running because she has to reach the bus stop or else she will be late, and the bus will go, leaving her there. Then the worst will happen, she has to go to her university to walk.

After about a minute, her expression, which was tensed, seemed to relax and instantly change into happiness. "𝘐𝘵'𝘴 𝘩𝘦𝘳 𝘯𝘢𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘦 𝘨𝘦𝘵𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘩𝘢𝘱𝘱𝘺 𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘳 𝘭𝘪𝘵𝘵𝘭𝘦 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘴𝘪𝘭𝘭𝘺 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘴." As she saw, the bus was not there yet. She went there, heavily panting. Her gaze wanders here and there in search of a place to sit so she can relax.

Only then did her gaze meet the girl in the mirror at the bus stop, and her lips molded into a soft, genuine smile: "𝙬𝙝𝙞𝙘𝙝 𝙞𝙨 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙗𝙚𝙖𝙪𝙩𝙞𝙛𝙪𝙡 𝙨𝙞𝙩𝙚 𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙧!" She has coffee-brown dead eyes, which resemble her hair color. She has a sharp nose, thin but perfectly outlined lips, and a sharp jawline. She looked at her shadow—the girl wearing sky cargo jeans with a short black western shirt, white sneakers, and her scarf around her neck. Her wolf-cut hair was freely open. The cold breeze is touching her face smoothly and gently.

Then suddenly, she felt a strong feeling of discomfort. She turned only to see all the men, boys, or even an old man standing and sitting at the bus stop, throwing disgusting looks at her. She feels disgusted at standing there. They are looking at her like she is a piece of cake, which they surely like to eat. Those looks are so disgraceful that even her clothes are unable to protect her from them. She sees a seat and instantly goes to it, bypassing all those looks and feeling extremely insecure.

She went there and sat. She took her phone out of her bag and started using it. After sitting there, she still felt uncomfortable, but she ignored her feelings and thought it might be her insecurity. Until then, when a finger lingers a rough touch on her arm. After jerking and almost jumping at once from her seat, she got up and saw a man with tanned skin and an ugly face had touched her. She is feeling disgusting. The creepy sensation on her skin is there. She wants to scratch her arm with her nails until blood pops out from her skin and that weird feeling goes away. Only then, did she hear a horn behind her and she knew it was her bus so she ran towards it and got up on it.

She took the window seat and started peeking outside the window to avoid what had just happened a while ago and distract herself from that incident.  Soon, she reached her university but she was unable to forget what happened just to her. Because of that happening in the morning, her mood is not good. She enters the university with a straight face and heads directly to her classroom.

When she enters the classroom she goes to her fixed seat on which her best friend sits. They are a whole group. There are three boys or three girls in that. Her friend's name is Ella. As she came and sat with Ella, she instantly noticed the change in her behavior and asked her what happened.

Ella always asked her what happened to her but she remained silent as she always did when she was hurt, disturbed, or anything else but she won't answer. Ella asked her multiple times but she sat still like she had ceased to listen to her she left her on her own. She knows she needs time and after time when she cools down she will instantly tell her what happened till then Ella waits. But she won’t know the same thing also happens to her which she never forgets and never calms down after that. Ella waited but she wouldn’t speak so finally after being irritated by her behavior she asked her how would come to the University. And she told her she got here by bus and she got to know why her mood was off so she gave her more time till then Sophie arrived and sat with them. Sophie is a messy girl compared to both of them. She always remains messy and gets in embarrassing situations and also brought the two of them (Rose and Ella) with her.

Just then the Male teacher seemed to arrive. It’s their art’s subject lecture. The teacher greet them good morning and the students greet him back good morning. The 20 minutes out of 45 minutes just passed when the door burst open and here they are. The three Boys walk one behind one without seeing the anger on the teacher’s face and without knowing they are shattering the rhythm of study in class. The teacher is continuously glaring at their back but they won’t even budge and continue walking to the last. And just behind Rose, Ella, and Sophie, they sit Liam, Sam, and Mark respectively in the same order they always used to sit.

The teacher continued to glare at them and when he was done glaring he pointed at three of them and told them to stand up but they won't even budge an inch. They seemed like they were glued to their space. The teacher said the same thing again to them then Liam spoke so sarcastically,”𝘈𝘳𝘦 𝘸𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘴𝘦𝘳𝘷𝘢𝘯𝘵 𝘰𝘳 𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘦𝘭𝘴𝘦 𝘰𝘳 𝘥𝘰 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘱𝘢𝘺 𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘧𝘦𝘦𝘴𝘦𝘴 𝘴𝘰 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘸𝘦 𝘸𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘭𝘪𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘯 𝘵𝘰 𝘺𝘰𝘶?” Are these the words that came out of his mind or the fire the teacher's face got red and he opened his mouth to speak and then closed it then opened it and then closed it. Seeing the situation of the teacher the whole class suddenly burst into a burst of huge laughter This much insult is not bearable for that teacher so he took fast steps out of class slamming the door behind him.
