Falling For The Girl I Bullied
Chapter 56

Sia’s P.O.V.

“They really did a number on them. She couldn’t even lift her body up on her own. I am really disappointed in Sia. She is my daughter…. My…. I love her more than my life… but what she was doing all this time has put my claim for the Mayorship in trouble. How can people trust me if my daughter likes to play with other’s lives?” dad was still yelling aloud while showing his disappointment in me to my mother. They were sitting in their bedroom and I was standing outside the door listening to what they were talking about.

“Their parents are highly disappointed with the decision you took for their sons. There is a heated argument going on in the group right now. They were showing their disappointment and worry for their children’s lives in a very bitter way”, mom informed them and I just closed my eyes. David messed up a big time here. “I know, Claire…. I know… I can understand their disappointment. After all, it’s about their children’s future. I had to set an example and had to show that I am impartial. I have an image to save”, dad once again spoke with a sigh in defeat. “Is there any chance that they can return to school? As you say that the girl, Violet…. She is kind and warm-hearted. What if they give a written apology to her?” mom suggested something to him and I opened my eyes curiously.

To be honest, I was also shocked when I heard about the punishment that they got. Also, the punishment that my father gave me was also not acceptable to me, but I didn’t have any choice here but to obey what my dad said. He asked the school management to email him the security footage containing me on a daily basis. It meant that I couldn’t act freely or boast about myself in front of others now. I knew that he was angry and I could do nothing here to get my freedom in school back. I didn’t care if they came to school or not. They got what they reaped.

“I am also thinking about something to bring them back to school. Homeschooling for the rest of the year can ruin their future and I haven’t forget that I have some business relationships with a few of their parents and they will also be helpful when I compete for the position of Mayor. I can’t put my future in danger just because my daughter is a stupid, spoiled brat”, dad once again showed his disappointment in me in a bitter tone. I couldn’t see inside or else they would know about my presence here, but I was sure that he had an angry expression on his face. “I will think about a solution to bring them back in the school”, he said in a firm tone and there was a silence in the room. I was curious to know what they were thinking about my punishment but they didn’t talk about that the whole time.

“Okay…. Now go and freshen up… it’s already too late… you should sleep now. You have a meeting early in the morning”, my mom said to my dad and I took a deep breath helplessly. I was really doomed this time. “Yeah… You then rest… I will be back soon”, he replied to mom in a tired tone and then after sometime, someone from them,, closed the door completely. I slumped down my shoulders and leaned back on the wall while looking at nowhere blankly. I didn’t know what to think right now. Violet and David ruined everything for me. Now, Kyle had more reasons to hate and my parents’ were not going to trust me in the future too.

I slowly dragged my body towards my room. Today, I tried to talk with Kyle so many times during our practice sessions, but he ignored me as if I didn’t exist in the world. He avoided me like a plague and it broke my heart into millions of pieces. I was him to acknowledge my presence and did everything to get his attention all these years but in the end, his hatred towards me increased by ten folds due to this incident. I heard what dad told mom about him taking care of that s**t. She didn’t deserve his attention or care yet she was taking advantage of the situation.

I lay down on the bed on my back and closed my eyes. I really didn’t know what to do now to get Kyle’s attention. He is a bully too and he is taking care of the person whom he bullies the most. I hated Violet from the bottom of my heart and wanted to strangle her to death now. I opened my eyes when my phone started ringing near me on the bed. I took the phone and frowned when I saw David’s name on the caller ID. It was already past eleven in night. Why was he calling me this time?

I took the call and put the phone on my ear. “You s**t…. you ruined my life completely. Are you happy now, w***e?” he yelled immediately while calling me names. His words infuriated me the most. “I ruined your life? It’s you who ruined my life in school completely. Just because of your stupidity, everything was exposed in of my dad”, I yelled back while sitting back on the bed. “You ruined my life completely”, I once again yelled at him angrily. I wanted to kill this stupid stinking brat.

“Ha… the all almighty Sia Bishop is now a crying baby, huh? Listen to me, Sia.. and listen to me very carefully. Talk with your dad and ask him to give us any other punishment or else I don’t know what will I do to vent my anger. I can’t let you or your dad ruin my life completely”, he threatened me in a slurred tone. I raised my brows when I realized that he was completely drunk. He was still of 17 but he and his friends started drinking a year ago. “Are you threatening me Lesley?” I asked him in a challenging tone and heard him laughing. “I am not threatening you, Bishop… I am telling you that I will not stay quiet if you fail to change your father’s mind about our punishment. You will not like what I will do”, he once again threatened me in a cold tone, but slurred heavily. Before I could reply to him, he hung up, making me scream again in frustration.

I sighed aloud and closed my eyes again. David was not a decent guy and if he said that he would do something bad to me, it meant that he would do. I messed up a big time this time and now I was regretting asking him to teach Violet. It would be better if I had handled this situation on my own. Mr Summers and Mrs Stone were keeping eyes on me all this time and now they would watch me like a hawk now. The worst part was that Mr Summers was my father’s best friend. I didn’t know why he did’t say anything to my father before but I was glad that he didn’t or else I would be doomed to death. Now the problem was that not only I had to keep myself low in school but also had to do something to win my parents trust again. I had to do this anyhow so that I could convince my father to do something to bring them back to school or else David would be a bigger problem for me.

David’s P.O.V.

“What did she say?” I looked at Peter, my friend who was sitting with me in the garden at my house. We all were here because what happened with us was completely unfair to us and none of us knew where to vent our anger. “She is nothing but a pathetic b***h. If she thinks that she escaped from punishment this time then I will make sure to make her life hell for destroying our lives. She was the one who wanted to see Violet covered in b***d. She was the who lured me by saying that if I would do what she wanted then she would let me f**k her whenever I would want. She ruined my life and I will not let her live peacefully”, I threw the bottle of beer on the ground in anger. My mind was not thinking properly and all I wanted right now was to strangle Sia to death.

“Do something David… my parents are so furious that they asked me not to come back home. This punishment is like a slap on their faces. If they won’t allow me to come back then, I have nowhere to go. What would I do?” Rein cried like a baby. I looked at everyone and they all had the same look. We all were drunk right now but what he said was true for all of us. My parents were also highly upset with what happened in the school and now they took all my credit cards from me as my punishment. I was not allowed to go out of the house without someone with me. I was not grounded but it was no less than grounded condition. “I will teach her a lesson for ruining our lives. Trust me guys…. I will not spare her. Her father saved her, but who will save her from me from now onwards? She underestimated me and I would show her what I truly I am.

“What we will do now, David? We all lost our place in the football team. The school is ready to form a new team but they don’t want us to play anymore. You said that Sia would save us if something went bad. Now she is saved and all of us are doomed. This is my last nightout. I am grounded for the rest of the year. Can you imagine sitting inside the house for the rest of the year? I don’t want to stay inside the house, David. Do something, please”, Victor cried this time and I huffed in anger. “What do you think what’s my situation, huh? I am not better than any of you guys. My father is not at home. I don’t know what he would do to me when he comes back. I didn’t ask any of you to beat Ethan and Violet. You were there but you joined me on your own will”, I yelled at them and they all looked at me angrily this time. “I said that I would do something soon. Give me some time. I will not accept the punishment so easily”, I said to all of them while yelling aloud.

“What about talking to Violet after sometime?” suddenly Axel suggested in a calm tone and I glared at him. “She is kind-hearted and also victim of Sia’s scheming like us. I am sure that if she requests the school and committee to take back their decision of home-schooling us, they would listen to her”, he spoke again while looking at all of us. “I am ready to talk to her. I will lick her shoes for the rest of the year if she wants to but can’t accept this punishment”, Victor spoke this time in a desperate tone. “We can assure her that we will save her from Sia and her gang like Kyle and his friends. I am sure that she will help us or should I say that she is the only one who can help us here”, Axel once again suggested in a calm tone, and I narrowed my eyes at him.

It was not like we had any other solution to this problem right now and talking with Violet was not a big deal. Like he said, she was really a kind-hearted and innocent girl. I didn’t want to accept, but she was the purest girl in the whole school. Whatever happened to her in her family was not her fault. Yet, Sia and all of us used that to torment her. We were wrong, but this was not the time to think about what was wrong and what was right. “Let her come out of Parker’s house. I will talk to her”, I said to them, and they all slumped down on their spots.
