Chapter 19: Chapter 19

"Can you get it from her?". Kapella asked.

"I can't, she'll know something is on".

"That's right ".

She moved to the system and rewind the online footage of the library.

She zoomed into what Ashley was watching and gasped.

" The glow appeared outside the water, the camera caught it ". She roared.

" I need to get the footage, I'll to mind control her". She paused.

"I charm people when they concentrate on me when I lure them to fall for my lips but Ashley hates me, I can't cause her to concentrate on me... Alternative". She mumbled and walked out.

Cindy entered the library and sat in front of Lovely who was studying.

"Don't drill holes into my head with your eyes, I'm not here for you". She told him.

"And what could have made you think I'll be staring at you?". He asked and she looked back.

"Because seeing me, reminds you of Kapella and it also reminds you that you that caused her to be heartbroken, you think you're ever gonna find a friend like her again, you just let go of a gold". Cindy said and without letting him reply plugged her earpiece in.

Lovely gasped and tried to read but couldn't as he could see invisible Kapella's image all over the book.

He closed it and closed his eyes but it was wrong.

He groaned angrily and hit his desk.

"Brother, are you alright?". Ashley asked from behind.

"Come I want to show you something".

"Just pretend you don't know you, you irritate me".

"I irritate you, you're a bitch". She cursed as she put the laptop into her bag and walked out.

She gave it to a man in black at the door with a deadly loll.

"Take put it, in my vehicle". She commanded and he left.

Her phone buzzed and she took the call.

"What do you mean you haven't found him, Finn?".

"I know there are a lot of students than just fvcking get the Principal to find him". She said and disconnect the call angrily.

Ashley's guard entered the elevator and pressed a button on the call box.

It made a 'ding' sound and closed slowly when a hand slide in and it opened.

Kapella entered confidently and bit her lip gazing at his lips

"Kapella Elijah, I finally got to meet the Arrowood's headache".

"And you just met yours". She whispered and the elevator door closed.

The Principal could be seen walking toward a classroom with a student behind him.

They stopped by the transparent wall and the student pointed to Francis who was seating on a female student's desk as he laughed and played with her hair.

"That's him".

The principal checked the picture on his phone and raised his head to see Francis again.

"Of course it is".

He dialed a number and placed the phone on his ear.

"I found him".

The Elevator's door opened wide and Kapella danced out with the laptop bag behind her.

Ashley's guard was standing in the elevator like a dried tree watching her leave.

Kapella puts on her bracelet again and closed her eyes.

She opened them and looked back.

Ashley's guard walked out of the elevator and stopped by her.

"Kapella Elijah, The Arrowood's headache".

"Have we met before?". She asked.

"I don't think so, If you would excuse me, I need to go find my boss ". He bowed and walked away.

She exhaled heavily and shook her head.

"What have you done? What are you turning into?". She mumbled with tears forming in her eyes.

"Mom was right, she was right". She cried.

"Kapella?". She heard her name and quickly cleaned the tears.

"Hey, Cindy". She said as she faked a smile turning back.

"You're crying

"No, I'm not".

"You're crying, your lips are literally shaking".

"No, I'm not".

"Don't lie, your eyes are red, why are you crying?".

"I'm not....".

She burst into tears and she fell into Cindy's embrace.

"Shhh, you don't have to cry, I'm here for you, crying makes you more beautiful and then I get jealous". Cindy said and she scoffed.

"I did something bad".

"C'mon, we've all done something bad, don't beat yourself up, let me guess you cheated on me".

"C'mon Cin, you joke with everything". Kapella said and sniffed holding her tightly.

"I'm supposed to be asking why you're crying but what are you doing with Ashley's bag?". Cindy asked and she gasped.

"You found him, then fvcking ditch him in a public bin, Francis or whatever you call him I don't care, whose son he is". Ashley's voice rang angrily down the hallway.

"Ashley". Kapella mumbled inaudibly.

"Francis".

They disengaged and there was Ashley right in front of them already.

She paused as she retreat her phone and gazed at them.

Since the bag was hung only on her left arm, she leaned against the wall making only the handle visible as her body hid the main part.

"Why are you staring at me, I've told you, we can't be girlfriends". Ashley said and she approached her.

"I know, am I asking?".

"You really got guts, don't think you're under a safe wing because my brother is by your side, I still got my eyes on you". She whispered.

"Good news, if you haven't noticed we ain't together anymore so can you excuse us?".

"He broke your tiny heart already". Ashley chuckled.

"No, excuse me, I've important things to attend to". She added and danced away.

"Did you have to say that?". Cindy asked.

"I can take care of myself, I can't use Lovely or Candy's name as a shield".

"Will you tell me about the bag now?". She asked.

"You should be worried about which Francis she's talking about, go I'll catch up with you".

Cindy hurried away and Kapella let down the bag before opening it.

She removed the laptop and pressed the power button.

Kapella quickly pulled out the CD drive to remove the disk but was shocked as it was empty.

"No! No! No!". She mumbled and thoughts flashed back.

Ashley had something on her other hand just now.

"Disk". She whispered as the scene came in played in her head.

She roared angrily and flung the laptop over the ground.

She wanted to take off the bracelet but paused seeing students running in a particular direction.

That was when it hit her that only the Arrowood can attract such a crowd.

She raced immediately to break through the big crowd and get a view of what was happening.

Francis could be seen writhing in pain on the ground as Diaz kicked his face repeatedly.

"Let him go, please I'm begging you". Cindy cried as she tried to break from Finn who held her tightly.

"Draw the Pattern". Diaz yelled and squat in front of Francis bringing a Poco M3 device close to his face.

"So much stubbornness for a fresher". Ashley smirked and bit her lower lips.

"I got my eyes on you Luv, pattern ain't my shit at the moment". He smiled and she scoffed.

Diaz let go of his shirt and rolled his sleeves.

He turned back swiftly and kicked his face causing the students to scream as blood splashed out.

He grabbed his neck and send several punches into his face.

"I'll do it". Kapella said hurriedly and he paused.

All eyes turned to her.

"And how could you possibly know, don't tell me you once fell for this cheap slut". Ashley cursed.

"Just let him go". Kapella begged stretching her hand.

Above was Lovely leaning against the balcony watching the scene below.

Diaz stared at her blankly and she didn't even wait for him to stretch as she took the phone from him and drew the pattern.

She handed it over to him and he was still staring blankly at her.

"And will you let her go as well ". Kapella asked and Cindy broke from Finn's grip.

They help Francis up and he groaned.

" Bitch.. That was what I had to nail them ".

" Shut up! Do you think you're a match for them, you're a fool ". Cindy cursed and he staggered with his hand around their neck.

Diaz deletes the video from the phone and smashed it on the wall.

"You're gonna get me a new phone". Francis yelled.

"Will you stop talking?". Kapella warned.

"I won't, next time you don't get yourself into trouble".She added watching the Arrowood leave the place.

"You will because a copy of the video is in my SD card and right now it's in my pocket". Francis said in a low tone.

"Oh my God! What will you get from this?".

"That girl, Ashley". He smirked with a naughty look.

"Did the beating affect your brain?". Cindy asked.

"She's beautiful".

"You know what, let's just get him to the clinic".
