I was born with a silver spoon on my mouth, but despite all that I grew up to be a simple kind-hearted girl. My name is Leianna Aurora B. Cristobal and this is where my story begins on that most joyous day. I was currently a senior high school student in Romualdez University. My school is having our last graduation practice. My gut feeling was telling me that my bully classmates were planning something.
“Sshhh, will you please keep your mouth shut, Tyler Jake. Aurora is coming to the room, be quiet you don’t want to ruin our plan right?!” Gabriel whispered to Tyler.
“Fine, I’ll be quiet. Here she comes.”
When I opened the door to our classroom I was surprised by what was thrown in my face it was a bubble gum with a paint. I saw my classmates and Ethan Xavier except those people who cared for me smirked. I gathered all my might and screamed at my classmates for doing that to me.
“WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU ALL?! WHY ARE YOU TREATING ME LIKE TRASH?! WHAT DID I EVER DO TO YOU, GUYS?! I DON’T DESERVE ANY OF THIS! REMEMBER THIS, ONCE I GRADUATE FROM COLLEGE AND BECAME SUCCESSFUL I WILL MAKE YOU ALL PAY FOR WHAT YOU DID TO ME! I WILL SHOW YOU NOT TO MESS WITH A GIRL LIKE ME! REMEMBER THIS! I WILL PERSONALLY MAKE ALL OF YOUR LIVES MISERABLE! I WILL BE YOUR GREATEST KARMA!” I screamed coldly like my voice was dipped in a whole bucket of ice. Then I ran out of the door.
After the graduation practice I went home crying. I was greeted by a smile and a hug from my mother. Right there I broke down crying my heart out. My mother saw me and she just hugged me tightly protecting me from all the pain. Then she asked what’s wrong.
“Princess, why are you crying? Tell me please.”
“Oh Mom, my bully classmates even Ethan the guy I love they planned something to ridicule me in front of my friends. It hurts all my life, I didn’t do anything wrong. Why did they do this to me?”
“Why that classmates of yours, I am gonna tell them to the guidance office. Don’t cry now, princess. Everything’s gonna be alright.”
“No please don’t, Mom. They will just deny it all.”
“You know I easily lose it when I see you crying, princess.”
“Okay fine, Mom do it.”
I went up to my room, changed my clothes and just laid in bed then cried my heart out. When I suddenly realized that I was not suppose to cry. I’m a strong girl, nobody can bring me down and hurt me emotionally. After 2 hours my mother called me for dinner I went down, ate dinner before kissing my mother goodnight. The next morning today is a big day. It’s my graduation day and I was excited, finally after such a long time. I will finally graduate high school, slowly I can taste my sweet revenge to my classmates who bullied me except my true friends. I repeated on my mind that once I graduate college you will taste my wrath. You will see my cruel demon side, I will make them all pay for what they did to me especially the guy that I used to loved but now I loathe. My mother was busy applying my makeup making sure to emphasize my beauty without my nerdy glasses. After four hours of preparing we went to the venue only to see my classmates and Ethan jaw drop at the sight of me. I smirked at them then smiled sweetly at my true friends. Then I approached them.
“Hi, good afternoon, guys. How are you all?”
“Hello, Ara. We are fine so excited for this event. You are so beautiful, Ara we hardly recognized you. You are like a beauty queen. Why did you even hide yourself in a nerdy glass?”
“Well for a change I’m tired of wearing those nerdy glasses. I promised myself that I will only reveal myself once I graduate high school. Now is the time for me to reveal myself.”
“Oh that is you’re reason. Well look who was dumbfounded and his jaw dropped, it’s Ethan.”
“I don’t care what he thinks of me. I loathe him from the bottom of my heart.”
“Are you even sure, Aurora?”
“I am sure, and besides I’m already betrothed.”
“Who is the lucky guy, Aurora?”
“Well his name is Dylan Mikail C. Buenavista.”
“When did you find out that your betrothed, Aurora?”
“My mother told me of course. She was planning it from the start, she said now that you loathe Ethan. Let me introduce to you your future husband. You might learn to love him. Well she was right, I fell for Dylan at first sight. I realized that I never really loved Ethan maybe I did but I realized we were not meant to be. Proving me that we just met, but not destined for each other. He was not the one for me.”
“Aww, what a shame, Aurora. Look’s like Ethan is hurt.”
“I don’t really care about him anymore. He chose to bully me and take advantage of my kindness well it’s his loss not mine. He had the chance but he blew it.”
“Calling the attention of all graduating students please proceed to the covered court for the commencement exercises. The program will be starting in an hour. Please fall in line according to your surname. That’s all and may we have a blessed day ahead.” the commentator announced my classmates and I followed the instructions.
