“Doesn’t matter. Once a snitch, always a snitch. Your dad tried to ruin our lives, but that piss poor excuse for power stopped him from doing so,” he said.
I could tell Luca was pretty pissed at this, but I noticed Phoenix was too. However, he seemed more shocked than upset.
“So it’s true? You’re the daughter of the head of security? I should’ve known there was something weird about you,” he muttered.
“It’s not my fucking fault my dad did his job and busted your asses.”
Suddenly, Phoenix pushed his hand down on my tray, causing the contents to fly off. Milk spilled all over my pants, and the rest of the contents went crashing to the floor. I could feel my composure coming apart, my eyes looking up at him. My mouth was agape with shock, and then, Luca sneered.
“You better know your place bitch. We’re about to make your life a living hell,” he said.
“Yeah. This is revenge for her,” Phoenix said.
He then walked off, leaving me in the middle of the cafeteria with milk all over my pants, a lunch I couldn’t bother eating anymore, and shock in my eyes.
But it then only got worse. During my next study period, I sat down, but that’s when I heard it. The sound of a fart echoing through the math classroom. I looked down, and sure enough, they put a fucking whoopee cushion there.
It was a juvenile prank, but I felt my face grow hot with embarrassment. The whole atmosphere here at this school changed, and it was just my first day. The teacher glared at me, and her next words made my heart stop.
“Julianna, if you could please hold your bodily functions in till after class, that would be great,” she said.
“It wasn’t me; it was—”
I looked down. Someone grabbed it during the small five seconds of me standing up. I looked over, and there was Phoenix. The class began to laugh, and I sighed. I didn’t know what to do in this case.
Then, after class, I went to my locker. I tried to open it, only to discover that it was glued shut.
“What the fuck,” I said to myself.
I heard the sounds of laughing, and then, a couple of girls stop on by.
“Hey look, the daughter of officer snitch can’t get into her locker.”
“Poor baby. Looks like you’ll need to find someone to open it,” the other said.
“Maybe officer snitch could help his daughter then,” one of them said.
I grimaced. I didn’t like the way this was going.
“Hey, fuck off, this has nothing to do with you,” I stated.
After a laugh, they, walked off, and I realized that most of the school was gone. I walked around, desperately trying to find a handyman or someone who could help me. Finally, after a half hour I finally found someone, one of the lesser known faculty, who helped me open it.
“Thank you,” I said.
“You should be careful. Seems like there is someone who wants to make your life harder,” the person said.
“Yeah, I’ve noticed,” I said.
He walked away, and a part of me wondered if there was anything I could do. Not only did I make enemies of the three most powerful guys in school. Not only that, I think Tabitha has some beef with me too. I didn’t know if she did this on purpose to get back at me for being cold to her, or what. But, from the way Luca looked at me, I had a bad feeling about this.
This wasn’t going to be good. Not good at all.
I thought about what to do next. I guess I can just wait to see if they die down after a bit. I went to my apartment, and JJ was in the living room.
“Hey. Is it really true about what you dad did?” she asked.
“Yeah, but I don’t follow in his footsteps. I wish these guys would realize that. I don’t want to hurt anyone. I’m just here till my mom comes back from her stupid overseas joyride,” I said.
“I see. Well, I hope it dies down. It sounds like you pissed off the wrong people,” she said.
“No shit. The worst part is they think I had something to do with some bitch getting expelled. Please, like I care about who is dealing drugs here or not. I mean shit, if someone has the good stuff, I may consider it myself with all the bullshit they’re doing. It’s my dad who is the one who is always acting all goody-goody. Not my monkey, not my circus,” I stated.
“I see. Be careful with that attitude Jules. Some of these people don’t understand that,” JJ admonished.
“Yeah I know. I just hope for the best.”
“It may not get better. I could tell Tabitha has a huge problem with you,” she said.
“I noticed that. she’s acting like it’s my fault or something. I’m just the daughter of the bastard who did it. I can only hope this dies down tomorrow.
But it only got worse from there. First, someone took my gym uniform and covered it in bird dung. I picked a bit of it off, but white spots decorated the uniform still. I tried to cover the small too, but that didn’t work out super well.
“Shit,” I said. Of course, a couple of girls walked on by, making comments at me about it.
“Eww, look at that smelly bitch.”
“Bet she’ll ask her father to snitch on the girls who did it,” one of them said as they walked not the gymnasium.
I had to go to gym class with bird dung smack dab on my gym uniform. The bullying didn’t stop. Most of the actions were done in secret though, meaning that I couldn’t do anything about it, other than to grin and bear it.
I wouldn’t let them get the best of me. I could tell they got a high off bullying me, and this would only continue until either I broke, or something.
