Chapter 27 - They Were Being Watched (1/2)

Adrianna walked away feeling cathartic.

Okashi was at her wits end about Adrianna's reaction. She didn't even know how to apologize for Adrianna's actions to newly made group of friends. There was also the fact that this was the first group that she had reached out to ever since she had started college. Her standards were pretty high, and this group had met all her parameters perfectly. She inwardly cried as she cursed Adrianna for being so rude, but she also didn't like the way Dmitri talked to Adrianna. Just yesterday night, he was asking her for a dance and today he was being acerbic. Just what was wrong with the two of them? Then, she shook her head, thinking that some people just don't vibe well with each other.

”I am sorry on behalf of Adrianna, but Dmitri you overstepped your line. You can't say things like that to my friend,” said Okashi.

Meanwhile, Dmitri was still reeling under the impact of Adrianna's fist while Keisha attended to him. He was angry, but he was inwardly smiling at the same time. He was at least able to get some reaction out of her.

Keisha was panicky about his state, and ordered Liam to fetch some ice from the cafeteria. Dmitri looked at Keisha and said, ”There's no need. I will be fine.” He watched Adrianna as she sped away from the site.

Okashi left them to go after Adrianna. Nate and Liam stood there sheepishly, pondering over the entire situation. There were some onlookers who were having a hard time controlling their laughter.

”Adrianna, stop,” shouted Okashi, running and catching up with her friend. Since when did Adrianna start walking so fast? Okashi panted as she joined her, and said, ”Adrianna, are you mad? If he complains about this to the administration, you will be suspended from school.”

Adrianna kept walking and looking straight ahead. ”Let that wuss complain. I am not bothered.”

Soon, they reached the place where Niiya and Pryce were sitting. Adrianna looked at her watch. She still had another fifteen minutes before her next lecture. Okashi, however, had to run to attend her lecture. Before leaving, she said, ”We aren't finished Adrianna.”

Adrianna just pretended as if she hadn't heard her. When Niiya saw the coffee stain on her shirt, he raised his eyebrows. ”How did that happen?” He would have killed the person who had dared do that to Adrianna.

”Forget it…” she answered.

Fifteen minutes later, they went to attend their next lecture. The classes were over by 4PM, and all of them were too tired to do anything. In the parking lot, Okashi was leaning against her car as she waited for Niiya.

When she saw that Adrianna was walking with Niiya, as soon as they neared her, she impatiently said, ”Adri, you must apologize Dmitri. I heard they are planning to corner you and teach you a lesson.”

”Oh really?” she replied. ”Then let them bring it on!”
