Chapter Five Fiasco
Elena's POV.
Mercy's hand cracked against Anna's cheek, and the room fell silent. Anna's eyes blazed with anger as she stood up, her face inches from Mercy's.
"How dare you lay your hands on me?" Anna growled.
I quickly intervened, standing between them. "Mercy, please calm down," I pleaded, trying to diffuse the tension.
But Mercy was having none of it. "You can't just let her stand there and defend nonsense," she spat. "We need to make her come to her senses."
I turned around, only to find our classmates staring at us, their eyes fixed on the drama unfolding before them. This was exactly what I had been trying to avoid.
"Mercy, let it slide, people are watching," I said my voice barely above a whisper.
In a swift motion, I turned back to Anna, attempting to snatch the contraceptive trash from her hand. But she dodged me, tossing it to Adam, who caught it with a surprised look on his face. I let out a groan trying to keep my emotions in check.
I tried to retrieve the contraceptive from Adam, but he swiftly passed it back to Anna, who caught it with a smirk.
"What the hell is this? Give me my property!" I yelled, my anger boiling over.
Adam scoffed, his hands raised in a mock gesture of innocence. "You have no shame, calling a contraceptive your belongings," he said, his eyes glinting with amusement.
I rolled my eyes, exasperated. "Oh please, stop acting like you're a saint after what you did, Adam," I shot back, turning away from him.
But Adam grabbed my arms, pulling me backward, and I almost lost my balance. I shook off his grip, my eyes blazing.
"What do you want from me, Adam? First, you cheat on me, and now you want to create a scene?"
Adam's face darkened, his voice menacing. "You dare not talk to me like that, I'm your boyfriend," he growled.
I let out a bitter laugh, my anger and hurt simmering over. "You disgust me, Adam. You think you can cheat on me and I'll still date you?" I asked, my voice heavy with irritation.
Adam's expression faltered, and he looked at me with a hint of confusion. "What do you mean, Elena?" he asked, his voice laced with innocence, but I knew better.
I stepped closer to Adam, my arms folded, my face inches from his. In a low, steady voice, I spoke, "I'm done with this hell of a relationship. So stay away from my personal life." The room fell silent, I could feel all eyes on us.
Without waiting for his response, I turned to leave, but Anna blocked my path. "Leave my front, Anna," I warned, trying to keep my cool.
But Anna stood her ground, her eyes flashing with defiance. "Oh, don't you dare yell at me, I'm not Adam," she shot back, her voice rising.
I rolled my eyes, trying to move around her, but she blocked me again.
"This is what you've always wanted, Anna," she sneered, her voice dripping with malice. "You wanted to be with Adam, and now I have given you the opportunity. Why stress me?"
Anna raised her hands, holding up the contraceptive, and my heart sank. "We both know how you wanted to break up with Adam since you cheated on him last night. This is the proof," she said, her voice dripping with venom.
My voice broke as I protested, "I did not cheat on him, Adam cheated on me!" The room seemed to spin around me, and I felt like I was drowning in a sea of shame and betrayal.
"Okay, Elena, let's go with your story," Anna said, her voice dripping with sarcasm. "You claim he cheated on you," she continued, bending her two fingers and flashing them in my face.
I nodded, feeling a lump form in my throat. "So why didn't you confront us?"
"I slapped Adam, you were there!," I yelled, my voice tinged with rage.
"Oh my!" Anna said her hands reaching for my neck and I flinched.
"Are you okay? How dare you try to touch me?" I asked, my voice tinged with disgust.
"I want to be sure if you are fine, because I can’t remember you slapping Adam or even seeing you yesterday." She said and I stared at her my furrowed brow.
"What are you saying Anna? Why are you doing this?"
"Elena You…. You… are just lying…Why? You cheated own it with your full chest!" She said, In soft tune but I could see her grinning how come no one can see through her lie?
The room fell silent, and I could feel the weight of everyone's gaze upon me. Suddenly whispers began to circulate, and I knew I was the subject of their hushed conversations. My face burned with shame, and I felt like I was trapped in a nightmare from which I couldn't awaken.
Anna's voice was venomous as she spat, "It's so obvious that Elena was the one who cheated on Adam, and now she's trying to blame us."
"That's a lie!" I protested, but Anna just scoffed.
The room was filled with murmurs of agreement, and I heard someone whisper from behind, "She's a loose girl."
"Oh no, she doesn't deserve Adam," another voice chimed in.
"Thank God Anna found the contraceptive pills. If not, she would have pinned the pregnancy on Adam if the pills didn't work for her."
The accusations and insults stung, and I felt my face burning with shame and anger.
I wished the floor would swallow me whole as Anna's words pierced my heart. "Adam has always loved you, and this is how you repay him?" she sneered.
"Why are you doing this to me?" I whispered, feeling tears prick at the corners of my eyes.
Anna simply hissed, flipping her hair back and holding the contraceptive trash high. Suddenly, a strong aura enveloped me, and I felt a presence around me. I looked up, but there was no one in sight.
My gaze met Anna's, and in the blink of an eye, the contraceptive pills were snatched from her hands. I couldn't see who did it, as Anna was standing tall at the table, blocking my view.
Just then, I heard a cheerful voice ring out, "Good morning, Professor Danvers!"
The room erupted into a chorus of greetings, and I let out a sigh of relief, thinking the drama was finally over. But then, Anna dropped down from the table, and when I saw the professor, my jaw dropped in shock.
Standing In Front Of Me Was Sex Lord! How can he be my professor? Am I dreaming or what?
