Amethyst eyes popped out as soon as Adelyn said that, tiny lights flashing through her eyes.
'When his problem is too much in the school, I was forced to look for the meaning of his name cause it sounds mysterious and it is my first time of hearing it then I searched it and discovered that it is the name of an evil spirit in Japanese. Everybody in their family is wicked, including his father.'
'His father?'
'Yes, he use his political status to cover his children's mistake every time. The last time Orests beat a girl till she land in the hospital, it was reported and the family of the girl stood up for her, but Orests father use his political status to snooze it off while the family of the girl was tagged as 'slanders' it was discovered that they tried to frame their family when clearly they are the one at fault. The girl did not nothing to deserve this but her picture was published and everybody criticize her. She commit suicide.' She concluded while disappointment creep onto Amethyst's lips, pity for the girl, but pure hatred for Orests clearly in her eyes.
'You need to be very careful amethyst, avoid Orests as much as you can.' Adelyn suddenly change the topic, holding Amethyst's hand.
'I would' she nodded.
'You need to be extra careful, I don't want you to be like that girl. What is happening now is exactly what happen to that girl. He asked her out but she reject him and he beat her till she landed in the hospital.' She said which make emotion drain off Amethyst's face, fear clouding her mind.
'In fact, you are luckier than that girl. I saw the pity in his eyes when he was talking to you. He is the kind that demand for an answer immediately after his question but he gave you time to play hard to get. Once he gets angry, he does violent things but he pull himself back instead of hurting you. You are more than lucky. Since he said he want the reply tomorrow, you should avoid him from now on. He is dangerous whenever he is determined.' She proceeded then her hand move up to Amethyst's cheek slowly.
'Maybe you should vacate your room to avoid further assault.' She said while Amethyst nod her head positively, suddenly feeling moody.
She is scared. What if he beat her as he beat that girl? Would she survive? Would she not be forced to say yes? If she do, would he not be bullying her?
Those thousands of questions clouded her mind as her heart thud heavily in her chest but just then, the door to her room shut open slowly, distracting her thought.
'You can come to my room for the mean time Amethyst, I am sorry for whatever mistake I had made in the past, please forgive me.' Piper, obviously who have overheard their conversation said, her eyes filled with pure love.
'Orests is more dangerous when determined, he does anything to get what he wants.' She added when she sees that Amethyst would not talk. She walk forward and sat beside her on the bed.
'Amethyst please, let me help like a true friend.'
...…..
*the next day*
BANG! THUD! BOOM! CLAD!
Different sounds were heard in the female hostel which had now turn to a market place, shouting, murmurings, gossips, and different type of side talk flew from left to right. Orests had got some male junior student to search for Amethyst because he wanted his answer but they did not see her. He was convinced that she is in her room so he went there but she was nowhere to be found and there were signs that she had vacate the room. He then ordered his friend to look for her in the female hostel. They keep checking every room without the owner's permission which got some girls angry, some murmured, spreading rumors. Their hatred for Amethyst grew.
That bastard newbie!
What stunts is she trying to pull? Maybe she stole from Orests and he was mad about that. Maybe Orests had discover one silly thing about her and she ran away while he keep looking for her. She must have gotten herself into problem. The look on Orests face is angry, that girl is doomed.
It had been two hours since the search begins and they found nothing like Amethyst. Orests stop before a door and banged it hardly, the anger in his eyes vivid.
*****
Amethyst's heart thud as she adjust herself on the bed, scared down to her bones. The news on the school group got her scared. Everyone described how terrible and angry Orests looked while searching for her.
** knock on the door**
Knockings came which make Amethyst shrieked and her phone dropped. The knock came more repeatedly and harshly which got her scared and she walk toward the door slowly.
'Open the door quick Amethyst' the voice at the door said which ease half of Amethyst burden. She opened the door while Piper quickly hurried in. Amethyst locked the door.
'He is just three rooms away from my room Amethyst, I'm worried. I never knew he could be determined to still continue the search after futile trial. It is late already.' Piper panicked, stealing glances at the time on her phone. Amethyst's eyes lace up with tears.
'This is problem, I'm dead' she cried, scared than ever.
'It is okay Amethyst, we would be fine. I can't just decipher what to do. Should I hid you in the toilet? But they are checking everywhere. Should I keep you under the bed?'
'Would this be the end of me Piper? Should I drop out of school? I don't want to stay anywhere close to Orests. I prefer my former school.' Amethysts said.
Yes she does. She is the queen there, treated like a goddess. She is brilliant and beautiful, loved and wanted by many people but when her mother got a transfer from work and would be relocating, she was transferred from her school to another, not just any but the biggest and the richest school in the country.
'Bang-bang' a loud noise came from the door while Amethyst turn toward the door reluctantly, eyes popped out and lips agape.
'Bang-bang-bang' the noise continue and then boom! The door was forced open, revealing Orests and his two friends.
Amethyst gasped.
The true definition of problem is here.
