Chapter 056

Therese's phone suddenly rang, and she excused herself to answer it. Britt and Enzo also arrived, they smiled at me and greeted me the same way. After 5 minutes, our prof arrived for the first period and Therese returned. But the prof didn't stay long in the room, he just left an activity that needs to be passed today. I just did it too, and so did Therese. "Vienna, after lunch let's go to the garden, the garden near the field," she said. "What are we going to do there?" I wondered. "We'll hang out and watch your brother's soccer practice. Isn't their match on Saturday? Are you going to watch?" she replied. "I'm not sure," I said briefly. "Why? Come on Vienna .. even if that's just your birthday gift to me. Won't you support Tine?" she said sadly. On Saturday I have to go somewhere. I'm going to our old house, which is my Dad's house. I just need to find something there that will help me. "Okay fine, I'll watch," I replied. Geez, I can't do anything but just agree, maybe she'll sulk at me. "By the way, where do you plan to go tomorrow? Is there a celebration at your house?" I added. "There would have been but I just told mom not to, after all, I'm 20 tomorrow. I'm old enough to celebrate at home," she replied. "Do you think your mom and dad will allow that? You're their only child." "It's up to them, but aren't we having club hours tomorrow? How can we get around that?" "Um, after class, there's still time for the celebration. And I've already made your cakes and cupcakes, I'll just deliver them to you tomorrow," I said with a smile. "Thank you so much Vienna, I love you .. you're really kind," she said while hugging me. "You're welcome, I love you too." THERESE'S POV We had just finished our Sociology class and I was immediately left out of the room. It was Tine, he's so stubborn, he has many questions about whether Vienna will like the surprise he has prepared. Honestly, Tine will confess and he also plans to court Vienna. And I just don't know if our plan will work. We didn't tell Tine what Vienna told us the other day, of course, we didn't want to hurt that guy. But I think Vienna will give Tine a chance. After I dropped Tine's call, Michelle called me next. So I just answered it too, I hope Vienna doesn't notice, if it is, we're doomed. (Therese, I'm nervous, what if Tine got rejected? We should tell him Vienna's answer) "You're also making me nervous when we tell him he might get hurt, right? And everything he did for Vienna will be ruined." (I know that but should we be honest with him? The guy trusted us) This is what we both fear, I hope Vienna doesn't reject Tine. "Whatever happens later, let's just cheer up Tine. There's nothing we can do when Vienna decides," I replied and I immediately sighed. I'm hoping and praying that Vienna will change her mind and accept Tine. Geez... I hope that happens. VIENNA'S POV Our 3rd-period class is also over and it's break time now. Therese and I got out of the room but Liezel blocked us. This woman had nothing to do with what Sebastian said and did to her. "You're an attention seeker, aren't you? Early in the morning, you got everyone's attention. Are you like that in America? Maybe you lack parental attention so you want to ask other people. Am I right? You lack-" Not anymore I was able to control myself, she had already tasted a slap from me. Many were surprised by what I did, I shouldn't have to do this but she's too much to me this time. "How could you do-" I didn't finish Rachelle either, she also got a slap on me. I am a good person but because of what they say I become a demon. "Are you going to say something also Mae? Or do you just not want to get a slap?" I asked without emotion and the witch looked scared. I approached Liezel and only now did I realize that I was even taller than her. "By the time you hit me again, that's not all you will take. And by the time you belittle me, I'll probably slap you two or more. You're only hurting yourself, you had nothing to do, and you have a lot of insecurities in your body. It's better if you just shut your mouth if you don't have anything to say. Come on Therese, maybe my sight will get darken again and what else can I do with the three of this," I said and passed them. I immediately sighed, she didn't recognize the person she was hitting. If she's a villain, I'm more of a villain. *** "You make me proud Vienna, you're unbelievable when you're the one who's got hit. Bravo! Because of that, I'll treat you two," Michelle applauded. I just shook my head at what she said. She knew what had happened earlier, Therese had already told her. "Vienna, you're a different kind of person if you get angry, I'm afraid I'll hit you," Therese said, making me laugh. "Vienna may be quiet but when she's underestimated, she becomes a villain." She's right, that's how I am. She's really my friend. We also bought food and Michelle treat us. My friend was generous. That's I ordered too much, I'm also very hungry because I haven't had breakfast earlier. After that, the three of us ate. "By the way friend, how's Billy's adoption papers? Did your mom agree?" Michelle asked and I nodded in response. "It's good then, for sure you can be with him by next week. But why don't you seem happy?" she added. "That's also what I noticed about her earlier, we're willing to listen if she ever has a problem or something on her mind," Therese replied. "Vienna, there is? It seems like your mind is occupied. Just tell us, what is it about?" Michelle said worriedly. I gasped, maybe they need to know. 'About my past," was my short reply. "Do you remember anything? Has your memory returned?" Michelle asked and I shook my head in response. "They were just the stuff of my dream but I couldn't understand. But last night, I suddenly remembered something about a guy. His name was Martin and Mother Selda told me, he was the only man I loved then," I replied made them two surprised. Michelle suddenly fell silent and so did Therese that's why I just bowed. "I need to find him and I need to get to know him. So I asked Mother Selda for help because I want to know everything about him," I added. "Vienna, that Martin you're talking about, he's your ex-boyfriend. Shouldn't he have been looking for you before? But he didn't. Because even when you were in the hospital, he couldn't visit or greet you. He was the first to forget and not you. If there's anything you want to go back to in your past, it's yourself and the people who have been close to your life," Michelle said. I just kept quiet, I didn't answer. They didn't understand me, Michelle was right but I had to get to know the man I left and forgot about then. He has been a part of my life, we have been together and he knows me. If only it were that easy to accept everything and forget what happened, I would have done it but no. For three years, they kept him as a secret from me so I had to find a way to see and get to know him. "You can't understand me, for three years Mom and my brother and even Dad hid and kept secret from me about him. If I hadn't asked and asked for help from Mother Selda, I wouldn't have known him and I wouldn't have known who he was. He was a part of my life then. That's why I'm so desperate to do everything to get to know and see him. Even if I can't get back what we had before, all I want to happen is for him to forgive me for what I did." I cried and I just felt that they hugged me both. I feel like they are crying too, I hope now they understand me. I just do all this for myself and Martin. When the right time came for the two of us to meet, I had nothing to do but apologize to him. I hope I can see him and I hope he will forgive me for the sin I have done against him.
