Chapter Three

"Beatrice, are you okay?" Hazel asked as Beatrice just ran out of the cafeteria, running upper, till she reached the topest floor which was a opened floor, she could feel the heavy breeze on her as she sighed heavily.

Beatrice sat down on the floor,as she began to sob, embracing her knees as she put her head on her knees

“Why did he have to embarrass me in public?” Beatrice thought as she continued to weep.

"I thought it was ugly to watch people cry but it looks cute seeing you cry." Beatrice heard a deep voice, as she looked up seeing Blake squatting in front of her.

"You are one of them." Beatrice said as she stood up.

"I am one of them," Blake said, standing up, "But I'm not them."

"What are you doing here?" Beatrice said slowly.

"Do I really have a answer to your question?" Blake said.

"I'm sorry." Beatrice said as Blake looked at her, seeing the milk still stained on her hair.

Blake tucked his hand into his pocket, bringing out a white napkin as he gave it to her.

"Here."

"Thanks." Beatrice said collecting the napkin as she began to clean her tears, Blake watched her for a few seconds before he scoffed with a smile.

"What? Why are you smiling?" Beatrice said as she stopped cleaning her cheek.

Blake collected the napkin from her as he began to wipe her hair, "I thought you would be smart enough to do what I'm doing for you."

"My mind didn't go there."

"That's because you were concentrating on the part that hurts the most not the reason of what caused the part." Blake said as he stopped wiping her hair, giving her the napkin, as he gave her one last look before turning away. "I don't want to see you here tommorow." He added without looking at her, as he continued to walk.

.........
"Beatrice,are you okay? I didn't see you in class for like three periods." Hazel said as she ran close to Beatrice on the hallway.

"Hmm." Beatrice nodded her head.

"So sorry about what happened and for the fact I couldn't help you."

"Yeah, it's fine, I'm fine too."

"Look Axel doesn't pick on girls,I have never seen him pick on girls." Hazel said.

"I guess he was bored today then and decided to try something new with me."

"Still angry?"

"Aren't I supposed to be angry right now?"

"Well,up for some drinks after school." Hazel said with a happy smile.

"I have to be home early." Beatrice said as they entered the class which only had few students already, "Could you borrow some notes for the last three periods?"

"Sure." Hazel said opening her bag as she gave her some notes.

"Thank you, aren't you going home now?" Beatrice said.

"No, I actually waiting for some drama." Hazel said with a mischievous smile.

"What's the drama all about?" Beatrice said with a questioning look.

"Two girls are fighting over a guy, they plan to meet later this afternoon, can't wait." Hazel said as Beatrice smiled.

"Well, that's shocking." Beatrice said, "Tell me all about it tomorrow."

"I could tell you today, if you could give me your phone number." Hazel said as Beatrice brought out a pen, taking Hazel's hand as she wrote her number."I would call you." She added looking at the number in her hand.

......
Beatrice came out of the school, when she saw different cars taking their kids home.

"These kids are like super lucky,I still wonder why I'm not yet lucky but anytime I asked my Mom that question, she would always say - ‘You never know what worse luck, your bad luck has saved you from.’ I still don't understand those words."

Beatrice thought as she got to a restaurant, she entered the building.

"Beatrice,the boss wants to see you." Emma said dressed in her waitress clothes.

"What!? I am not late, in fact I'm two minutes early and by the way, I just came." Beatrice said.

"I know you just came and you are not late." Beatrice could hear her familiar boss's voice behind her, she turned around to see Mr.Darcy,he had a fat belly,fat round face and a brown eyes.

Emma hissed in with her teeth together,"I have to go now." Emma said leaving the whole drama.

.......
"Beatrice, Beatrice, Beatrice." Mr Darcy called out Beatrice's name as they were both in his office,him sitting on his office chair, while Beatrice stood in front of him.

"Yes sir."

"How many times did I just call you?"

"Three times,sir." Beatrice said as she gulped hard.

"Do you know the meaning of your name?" Mr Darcy said as Beatrice looked at him with a surprised look.

"Well, I don't know." Beatrice said.

"Oh,you should know the meaning of your name,it means bringer of joy, Beatrice." Mr Darcy said.

"Well, how does my name has to do with what you are about to say?"

"You are not giving me joy, Beatrice, you are the opposite of your name."

"How?"

"What happened two nights ago?" Mr Darcy said.

"Sir,they deserved it." Beatrice said quickly.

"Beatrice,this is my restaurant and you can't run it for me,those men were my regular best customers."

"No, those men were criminals."

"What is your business if those men were asking a girl out?" Mr Darcy said, standing up as he moved closer to her.

"Those men wanted to rape her and if she eventually get rape in your restaurant that you think you run so perfectly,trust me your restaurant would suffer more profit than the regular customers you just like lost." Beatrice said.

"How dare you talk to me like that?" Mr Darcy said angrily.

"I'm just saying the damn truth." Beatrice said.

"You are fired." Mr Darcy said as Beatrice looked at him, before walking out of his office angrily.

She came out of the restaurant as she tried not to cry.

“Justice will not be served, until those who are unaffected are as outraged as those are, I did the right thing by saving the young lady,Somwtimes people don't like to listen to the truth because they know it would destroy their illusions, The only people who worth your tears won't make you cry in the first place,so Beatrice don't cry."

Beatrice thought as she continued to walk home.
