“Watch and see. She might have a thing for Professor Clark,” Erin whispered to Claire, loud enough for me to hear.

“Yeah, I mean, he’s hot,” Claire said close to my ear again.

Belvina held me back when I wanted to turn around.

There was no way I could attend this class. Erin and Claire were driving me crazy. If Vina wasn’t holding me back, I would’ve turned around and rearranged their faces with my fists.

“I will use your notes later,” I told Belvina, standing up.

She nodded, sending a killer look behind her. Claire and Erin smiled in return.

I could feel every eye on me as I walked down the aisle to Mr. Clark, who was engrossed in the computer in front of him.

“I’m not feeling too well,” I said to Mr. Clark.

He waved his hand in dismissal without looking at me. I tried to calm down as I walked down the large, slightly crowded hallway.

Someone yanked my arm from behind and pulled me to a hidden corner. I was pushed to the wall so hard that my back hurt. Great, it was Ralph, Sofia’s little brother, who shared a class with me. He had once been obsessed with me and tried to make me date him, but I’d turned him down.

“You slut!” he snarled.

What a misogynist.

“Ralph, let go.”

“You ruined my family. You think you’re gonna get away with that?”

I wasn’t sure if this was just about Sofia. This was his opportunity to hurt me for turning him down a couple of times in the past.

“Is that why you refused to date me? Because you’re into older guys?”

There you go.

“Ralph, let go!” I tried to push him off, but he pressed me harder to the wall.

“You disgust me.” He spat on my face.

I wanted to knee him in the crotch, but he saw it coming and dodged it.

“Nice try.” He pressed my body to the wall. “I just want to squeeze that thing growing inside of you.” He poked my stomach with one finger. It was a brutal poke that felt like he was stabbing me. It hurt.

“Do you know what my sister is going through? She won’t stop crying, and when she’s in a bad mood, she won’t stop shopping. Because of you, my family got humiliated.” His nails dug into my skin with a clawing grip.

“Ralph, stop.” I wished I could free my arms and leave a fist mark on his ugly face.

“I don’t care.” He pressed me harder to the wall.

“Let her go, Ralph,” Grey shouted from the corner.

“You still wanna be on her side after what she did to you?”

Grey stepped closer and pushed him away from me. I adjusted my top and stared at both of them with tears at the corners of my eyes.

“Don’t be a fool, Ashton. She used you,” Ralph said.

“Leave her alone and don’t touch her again,” Grey warned. “Leave,” he told Ralph.

Ralph glared at me and left.
