Twisted act

From the moment I entered the classroom, I could sense something was off.

My classmates were huddled around a table, their heads immersed in reading an article. The words "top administration of a gang," "childhood leader of an organized band of thieves," and "a wanted criminal" instantly caught my attention, and I couldn't help but eavesdrop on their discussion.

"Have you heard? One of the necklace stored in the SSG office is missing "

As I sat at my desk, feeling the creeping sensation of anxiety, I was suddenly startled when someone touched my shoulder.

Are you okay, Daryl?" she asked, her expression filled with concern

 "Who is she?and How did she know my name?"I thought as I carefully studied her face, something about her seemed familiar, though I couldn't quite place it.

She leaned closer”thank you so much for lending me your clothes last night “ her voice whispered gently as she placed the neatly folded PE uniform and blazer on my table and walked away

The delicate scent of fabric detergent wafted through the air, and I couldn't help but feel my heart skip a beat,

The puzzle pieces began falling into place, it was no coincidence that she was here in this classroom just as I had been last night 

It made sense now why we were in the same place - we were actually classmates all along. But I never know her name.i didnt even know she's in my class

"Good morning class"The teacher's voice echoed through the classroom, and all eyes turned towards her

"I'm pretty sure everyone is aware about a missing item in the SSG office and a breach in the school's security system "the teacher started

" we are currently investigating in regards with the incident and I'm asking for everyone to please stay calm while we sorted things out and worked to ensure our safety."she assured us

A wave of nervousness washed over me as the teacher's words sank in.

I couldn't help but feel nervous as the teacher addressed the situation. It felt like my heart had stopped, and my stomach was tied in knots

Suddenly, I felt something in my pockets that caught my attention - a piece of paper. What could it be, and why was it there?

My eyes remained glued to the note, its brief message leaving me confused. It read, "rooftop 12:00 pm". I glanced up and saw the girl who had approached me earlier, her attention fixed on the window.

During the lesson, my thoughts were so scattered that I couldn't focus on anything else.

"Everyone knows about the stolen item...what will happen if someone finds out?"

As the bell rang, I raced toward the rooftop. My mind was in disarray, a whirlwind of panic and uncertainty. Who could have sent the note, and what were their intentions? The thought of being blackmailed sent a wave of unease through me, and my heart pounded in my chest as I made my way up to the rooftop, hoping to find some answers.

As I reached the rooftop, I found her standing there, her long jet-black hair blowing slightly in the breeze. .

"You came..."she whispered

"..." I didn't say anything

"What does she want?"I wonder

". You probably haven't noticed, for I'm just a nobody to you.

"You may not have noticed me. After all, I'm just a nobody," she continued, her voice tinged with a hint of sadness. "But I've always been there, and I've always been watching you from the shadows... silently admiring you from afar. And in that time, I've fallen for you, and I can't hide it anymore... I..."

"You never pay attention to me until last night last night..."She paused, a faint smile playing on her lips as she continued,

It's about that necklace you stole yesterday. But it's not what you think," she began, her voice filled with a mix of sincerity and nervousness. "I know you stole that necklace, but I don't care about that. I just want you to know the truth."

she added, the weight of her words echoing in my ears, even though her expression remained tender.

Im sorry

I was walking through the woods after school, enjoying the peacefulness and the fresh air.

While standing at a distance, I heard one of the girls holding a newspaper

"I'll tell everyone about this! I have proof. And if you don't do what I say, I'll expose daryl to the whole school," she threatened. "He'll be known as a criminal, and will end up in jail for stealing that necklace. I'm not bluffing Liz.".

Her words made my heart race with fear. My mind raced with panic, wondering how they had discovered the truth and what I could do to prevent the situation from escalating further

"Not anymore"

Suddenly, my heart sank as I saw her push one of our classmates off the small cliff nearby. I watched in horror as the victim fell, her screams ringing in my ears.

"Don't worry ,I'll protect you no matter what" Liz turned to me with a cold, calculated look, her eyes lacking any remorse or emotion.
