She got dressed, ignored her mother, skipped breakfast and skipped to school with a huge smile on her face. Her eyes were puffy from staying up to read and also from crying, but she wasn't bothered. For the first time in a long time, she was happy.
As usual, she felt their gaze on her as she entered the school building. She could also hear their whispers which wasn't one to begin with if she could hear it.
"Her eyes are puffy."
"She must have cried last night."
Of course she did cry, but the reason her eyes were puffy wasn't because of that, she finally felt peace and it was rather weird that that peace came from a novel.
"How dumb can one be?"
'Not as dumb as you for putting on a wig that doesn't even suit you. Who do you think you are? Barbie?' She thought to herself.
"She even has the guts to show up to school today."
'So what should I do about that? Kill myself? Even though I tried to do that but that was all in the past.'
She walked in the hallway without being bothered about what they were saying about her. With her held up high, she went to the restroom to check out herself in the mirror. For some reason, she felt her confidence was back and she wasn't afraid of anything, not even Tasha and her girls.
"She pisses me off. I wish she would just drop dead."
"Come on, Pepe. You shouldn't wish death on someone" They both laughed and she knew instantly that they were talking about her.
"I can't believe how you said that with a straight face. So hilarious." They continued laughing. Leila stood at the entrance of the restroom listening to what else they had to say.
"I aspire to be an actress. Like Jennifer Lopez or the female version of Will Smith."
Wait hold on, is Jlo an actress? That wasn't necessary though.
"I can't believe she would turn the boys against us. I caught my boyfriend jerking off to her video." Leila's smiled to that information and wasn't disgusted by it like she was yesterday.
"Really?" The other girl asked. "What did he say then after you caught him?"
"That bastard? He told me this sex video and the way she touched herself was even far more satisfying than having sex with me. Can you believe that?" The other girl gasped and Leila held herself from bursting out with laughter. She was enjoying this, but how long were they going to stay in the restroom for?
"I dumped his ass obviously. He doesn't deserve me anyways."
Leila decided she had heard enough and decided to enter the restroom. They both went silent and stared at her in every malicious way possible. She ignored them and went to the mirror.
"Hey, whore." One of them called. She didn't mind her calling her a whore, she decided to let it go this time.
"I'm talking to you, bitch Leila."
She smiled when she saw her beautiful reflection in the mirror, washed her hands, dried them off and turned to leave but they both dragged her back.
"What do you want?" She asked aggressively.
"What do I want? Because of you my boyfriend is..."
"Your boyfriend is what? What is my business with him? I don't know who you are neither do I know who your boyfriend is. What? If you have nothing reasonable to say, can you let go of my hand now? I can't believe you stopped me for something as unreasonable as that." They both let her go as they stared at her without knowing what to do or say.
"You bitch. What exactly are you feeling like? You are nothing but a loser and a whore."
Their insults didn't hurt her, this wasn't the first time she was hearing such words. Besides, what exactly were two strangers fighting over a guy going to say that will hurt her?
Leila laughed, "this is coming from someone whose name is Pepe." She laughed again as she said the name. She found it quite funny.
"I let it slide when you called me a whore the first time, but not this time bitch. They say everyone gets three shots at everything, three chances but me I say why give them that when they will mess up either way, so I give everyone two chances and guess what? You have used them up."
They were both scared as she pushed them against the wall, literally.
"Your boyfriend never liked you from the start that's why he finds me more pleasurable than you ever will be."
Pepe gnashed her teeth but was unable to do anything to Leila.
"How shameless can you be? You are a disgrace to every woman in this world." Pepe said with shaky voice.
"Ohhhh. A disgrace?" It was appalling as how a virgin like her was considered a whore while this thing in front of her has had sex multiple times with her boyfriend whom was obviously cheating on her, but who cares? She was obviously the whore here.
"Shameless? My shame left me a long time ago. You're just pissed because your boyfriend loves my leaked video more than he does your body. How pathetic can that be?" She was clearly bluffing. Few hours ago, she was upset and was even about to commit suicide because of a video that had her face on it, a fake video, but here she was claiming she was the one in the video.
"I wonder how amazing I will make him feel if I let him fuck me raw. That video wouldn't be able to satisfy his needs as much as I would. Why watch me when he can actually fuck me himself instead of getting hard and releasing with the help of a video? That would be the best."
Pepe boiled with anger as her veins popped and she remained silent.
"You disgusting whore vermin, how dare you talk to me like this?"
Leila stared at Pepe's friend that accompanied her and she jolted from fear. She was too shocked to even say anything to Leila.
"I wonder if I should make more videos like that and sell it to the boys. Do you know how much they will pay for just one leaked video? What if I told them they could fuck me raw? That they could have a taste of my sweet pussy..." She moaned. She absolutely cringed herself but she didn't mind it if she could see them suffer, she was loving tormenting their deserved souls.
"... do you know how much they will pay me? Maybe I should charge them 50 dollars with every round they get with me."
This wasn't how she was, but seeing their expressions made her continue. Of course she would never let that happen, it was just for this moment and this moment alone.
They frowned and stormed out of the restroom. She could have sworn she heard Pepe crying. Leila laughed so hard after they left. It was worth it. She didn't have a boyfriend, and neither has she had one before.
She washed her hands one more time before leaving the restroom, feeling more confident than she felt this morning.
