The secret

Chapter 41

Lizeth: Mom, what are you doing here? -I asked, totally confused by the situation.-

Mom: Hi, Mr. Sharp. Sorry to keep you waiting. I was at the grocery store when you called. -she explains while shaking his hand.-

Mr. Sharp: It's alright Mrs. De Jesús. Please take a sit. Let's get starterted. - My mom and Mrs. Martin sat down. Mrs. Martin was looking at us like we were contagios or something . Staying as far away from us as possible.- The reason why I called is because we have an issue here as you may all know. I'm aware of the past between them and I see the reason why they would want to hurt one another. This has to stop. We don't tolerate vilionce at this school. And-

Lizeth: Wait, I'm sorry. -I interrupted- what did I do exactly? -I asked still sconfused-

Mrs. Martin: Oh please. You know what you did! -she raised her voice-

Lizeth: No I don't! That's why I'm asking. 

Mr. Sharp: Well let's refresh your memory. We heard from Rebecca here that you physically hurt her this morning. She said that you yelled at her in front of the school because you thought she was trying to still your popularity and that you cornered her this morning. You told her that you were gonna "teach her a lesson" -He said doing quotation marks with his fingers- and that she can't get in your way no longer. So what you did is tackle her to the the floor and hit her constantly untill you finally stopped. -he explained-

Lizeth: Huh. What a story she told you there. I'm guessing her words are more important than mine and no matter what I say I will be blamed for something that I obviously didn't do. I'm just not gonna waste my time and defend myself. -I say with tears in my eyes.-

Mr. Sharp: I'm sorry, Lizeth. We have evidence that you did it. Look at her bruises they are evidence enough. -he explains- Now we have to come to an agreement here. First of all our police friend here will issue a warrant that states that you have to be at least 50 feet away from her at all times and 20 during school. (I don't really know much about this and the whole how far away someone should stay away if they issue a warrant, so bare with me.)

Mom: Wait that means she can still come to school?

Mr. Sharp: No I'm afraid not. She will be expelled for the rest of the year but can continue next year. -He replied in a tone that makes you think that this is hard for him to do.- I'm sorry Lizeth. I'm afraid you're suspended.-

Lizeth: Of course I am. This is bull. -I mutter- 

Mrs. Martin: I thought she was gonna get expelled? -She asks in disappointment-

Mr. Sharp: I can't do that. All I could do is suspend her. This happened off school grounds. This is all I could do, I'm sorry.

Mom: Well, thank you Mr. Sharp. Is it okay if we leave now. Me and Liz here need to have a talk. -She says while glaring at me-

Mr. Sharp: Of course. Have a good day ladies. The officer here will walk you to your locker so you could get your stuff. Mrs. De Jesús, you have to wait here. 

As I was walking to my locker tears just came running done. This a new low even for her. This is gonna be on my record. Well I guess I can kiss goodbye the idea of hopefully getting into Standford. That actually hurt the most. It's my future she just destroyed here. I can't belive this. I was slowly heading towards the depression and sadness stage again. And all because of the same person.

Officer: You didn't do it did you? -he asks then stops. I stop too.-

Lizeth: Excuse me? - I ask while wiping the tears away with the end of my sleeve-

Officer: You didn't beat that girl up, did you? -He asks onece again. I was now looking at him. Before I just looked at the badge and not him. He was tall, about 6"2. He had dark skin and hazle eyes. He looked like he was in his mid 20s maybe late 20s. He seemed like the nice type. Someone you can count on. He had a vive that told you that you could trust him and that he was there to help.-

Lizeth: No, I didn't. But I guess the evidence is stacked against me. I just can't belive she would do this. God I was so dumb not to expect something like this. I should've been prepared. I should've gone to Mr. Sharp first.- I confess. Mentally beating myself up for it.-

Officer: So, what happened? Between you two? Oh by the way, I'm officer Renolds, Marcus Renolds. Call me Marcus, officer Renolds makes me feel old. -He chuckles and I do too.- Nice to meet you. -she introduces himself and takes his hand out of his pocket so I could shake it and I do.-

Lizeth: Lizeth De Jesús. -I give him a light smile.- Umm well she was my old bully. I was going through some really dark times and I guess she found me to be venerable and made me her target. Wait I though this was on my record. Didn't you read it? 

Marcus: No, I got called here and I came. I didn't know what was going on untill I got here. Do you mind explaining it to me? Obviously your information is safe with me so you don't need to worry about it. I would like to get your side of the story. I mean she made her's pretty clear. She explained it twice. -He rolled his eyes-

Lizeth: Well, one night my dad he came home drunk. He yelled at my mom and hit her so my brother tackled him to the ground trying to stop him. He was beating him and I couldn't stop him, neither could my mom. -tears where coming out again. Heavier and heavier by the second.- So... so I did what first came to mind. I had to stop him beafore he killed him and I grabbed something and hit him with it. I didn't... I didn't realize what I had done. I had just killed my father so she found out about it. She bullied me for it. Called me all of this names such as murderer. She even beat me up once just for interninment. I was at my worst and I'm not proud of what I did next, I swallowed some pills. Luckily my brother found me in time. You can say it was... it was a miracle. 

Marcus: WOW, what a bitch -he exclaims-

Lizeth: Yea tell me about it! Ever since she got here she has made it miserable again. She is currently trying to steal the one thing that constantly keeps me standing and that is my boyfriend and my friends. She is trying to also take my "popularity" which I didn't have and if I did well I don't care about that. I could care less about my social status as long as I have friends by my side. - I explain-

Marcus: She didn't get in trouble for what she did? 

Lizeth: No, we did press charges. But her daddy cleaned up the mess. 

Marcus: Let me guess, with money? -he rolled his eyes again in disgust- 

Lizeth: Yep. -I replied then someone came running towards us.-

Joel: Hey so what happened? Are you alright? What's wrong? -He asks worried-

Lizeth: I got suspended. 

Joel: WHAT? Why? 

Lizeth: Because supposedly I beat her up.

Joel: No! What? Ughh what a bitch. We are gonna fix this. I promise. -He places his hands on my cheeks holding my head up.-

Lizeth: I don't think we can. Bye, bye standford! -I say opening my locker.-
