I almost forgot I have one other special task to do. I have to get my stupid scrapbook which caused me all these troubles. Yesterday I just ran away and forgot to collect it from Britany. I should get it today.

When I came to university it was crowded with students on as any other day. I slowly walked towards the faculty, praying God to give me the courage to face everything.
Students were all over the corridors and everywhere, but no one even looked at me. They all just ignored me, which was quite unusual.
All the previous times, when something like this happened, I couldn’t even get to reach the faculty door without these people making fun out of me.
Today everything looks so different. I went to my locker first to keep some of my textbooks. There were many students there, but none of them show me any attention.
I was so pleased. Maybe God finally has thought of giving me some relief.
I then went searching for Britany or her friends. I looked in every place they usually in. But they were nowhere to found.
Where they all vanished to? I was thinking of walking all around the faculty.
I saw Shane and his gang was there in the canteen, but Luke was not with them. Where has he gone?
Anyway, I walked out of the canteen before they notice me. I know I have to be strong and all, but there is no use of intentionally get into troubles, right?
I was fed up searching for Britany, Amy, and Mia. I wished that I had their phone numbers, then I would not have to walk everywhere with this stupid headache.
I had like one hour to kill before the next lecture, so I thought of going to a computer lab to do some research on one of my assignments.
I was astonished to see who were there when I entered the lab.
Britany, Amy, and Mia all three of them were there.
So have they been here this whole time? Today only the unusual things happen, it seems. This is the first time I saw them in a computer lab, well apart from the times we had online assignments. There was no other student other than them. They were discussing something so intensely, they didn’t even notice I entered the room.
I walked towards them, they were literally whispering I couldn’t even hear a word they said.
“Britany” I called her.
They all shook with panic.
“What the hell? You scared us” Britany groaned.
“I am sorry. I searched for you everywhere” I told.
“Hmmm…” she said staring at the computer screen. There was nothing on her screen other than the wallpaper, so what was she staring at so intently?
“I didn’t think I could find you all here”
“Why? are we not allowed here,” it was Mia.
“No…no not like that. I mean you normally don’t come to labs, that’s why” what am I really talking about? just get into the topic immediately you fool.
She didn’t reply. They all started staring at Britany’s screen as she just opened Google Chrome. Haven’t they seen a web browser before?
Or do they purposefully avoiding me? Normally it is me who try to avoid people, with the fear of getting to trouble. So why they have to avoid me?
However, I have to get that stupid book to my hand, it has caused me enough trouble by now. After all, she promised me to give it back. We had a deal and I completed my part, now she has to do the same.
So you don’t have to be afraid Sarah. You are just going to ask for what she promised nothing more.
“Mmmm. Britany… Can I get my scrapbook back?” I asked gathering all my courage up.
She was still staring at the web browser screen like she didn’t hear me.
“Britany! I want my scrapbook back” this time I said a bit loudly.
“I can’t give you that,” she said casually.
“What!!! but we had a deal. Can’t you remember? I did what you asked me, now you have to complete your part of the deal.” how can she refuse to give it now? she promised me.
“I know we had a deal. but now I can’t give it” she said still staring at the screen. Neither Amy nor Mia even raised their heads.
I have got bullied countless times, I was used to them. But what they asked me to do was beyond my limits. I bet my dignity on this s**t. I never wanted to make my self embarrassed in front of Jake or Luke. I never wanted to make them feel uncomfortable for any reason. I almost got the person I love to hate me. I did all these shits because I didn’t want anyone to read my stupid scrapbook. So now what she means by she can’t give it?
I got furious. My heart rate doubled.
After I did everything, I can’t just let it go. I should not let it go.
“You Bit** How dare you to say you can’t give? Do the fu**ing thing you promised” I yelled while grabbing Britany from her shoulders.
They all looked surprised to the maximum. So did I…
I didn’t know where I got that much courage and confidence to grab the most popular girl in the university and yelled at her like this. This is like the first time I yelled at someone.
I had my hands still on Britany’s shoulders, and she was staring at me with fear and surprise. I had never seen someone look at me with such fear. It is me, everyday look at people with fear in my eyes.
“You made this deal. Now finish it” I yelled again shaking her.
She is surely much stronger than me. And they clearly outnumber me. But none of them even tried to stop me.
My fingers pressed on her pale flesh, I was so near to burst into tears with anger. Before that, I got to finish this. “Give that fu**ing book to me!!!!!”
“I… I don’t… have … it” she stuttered. Did I really make everyone’s sweetheart stutter? Something to celebrate, but not now.
“Where the hell you kept it,” I asked, pressuring my hands on her.
“I didn’t keep it anywhere… He took it from me… And he said he is not going to return it” she said barely looking at me. What??? What did she just tell?
“I didn’t keep it anywhere… He took it from me… And he said he is not going to return it” she said barely looking at me.
What!!! My hands left from her shoulder. She was indeed scared but now I am even more scared than her.
“who took it?” I asked with a broken voice.
