Chapter 9
So,what the hell was going on? Me slapping Diya? I . SLAPPED. DIYA? Whoa....! Can't believe it....I might as well've slapped a vampire, cuz both are seemingly impossible. The entire class fell silent again, but this time the silent was not one of anticipation, but of tension. No one had ever talked to her with a raised voice, and I had slapped her?
For a while, I looked at my right hand (with which I'd slapped her) with utter disbelieve,the I looked up nervously at Diya. I know I'd slapped her, but that doesn't mean that I'm not afraid of her. I had acted on impulse, on a sudden feeling of bravery, and now that the bravery was gone, I fell stupid, queasy and all the more afraid.
Diya's face showed utter disbelieve too, she was aghast. Stealing a glance at DJ, I saw that he was trying very hard not to smile. Phew, at least he didn't seem angry....But Diya's expression was changing....From disbelieve to anger. The mood of the class was changing too, students were whispering excitedly amidst themselves.....Seeing them whispering, Diya became even more angry. She looked at me like I was some dirt on her shoes, or some dung on the floor. Gosh, she'll kill me..!
I could see that she'd started hating me now. I could almost imagine all the cells in her body loathing me....God, help me.
She glared at me like a wild animal, and just when she raised her arm to slap me back, the teacher came in....
Phew, I breathed a sigh of relief. As soon as the teacher saw Diya in such a position, she screamed, "Diya what are you trying to do? If your mother is the headmistress here, it doesn't mean that you will do whatever you wish to do. Detention, Ms. Diya. See me in room number 6 after the school is over."
Detension to Diya?? WOW, I was having a treat. Diya was filled with shame, the teacher obviously had hurt her ego. But suddenly I got the full blow of the teacher's words-Diya was the headmistress's daughter-how could I've forgot that? What if I were expelled?
With this thought I went back to my seat. Diya, going back to hers, hissed at me, "I'll get back to you, Sarah. I'll get my revenge...."
Oh boy, REVENGE? DJ didn't look at me at all. I need him and all he does is look away from me? Damn him....
But I knew how to win him back-by qualifying for the Adventure Camp - that was the only way left... I had to do it... I was sure that DJ would qualify, as he's soooo brainy, but I had to do it too....what if Diya did it again and made up with him? NO WAY - I could NOT let that happen, I would NOT let that happen ever. I HAD to win my DJ back....
