Chapter 3
The week that followed was uncomfortable for Xiaoping to say the least. While Irina was still at home there had still been whispers that he had to endure. Now that she was back he felt calmer, but also more nervous. Alyssa was back too, looking just as smug as ever. At lunch when she saw Irina she walked over, smirking. Xiaoping instinctively tightened his grip on Irina protectively.
"I'm surprised you still have the nerve to show your face here slut." She remarked, Irina lowered her head but didn't say anything, Xiaoping glared at Alyssa. "Will you stop calling her that, she's not a slut, unlike you."
Alyssa looked surprised at this and then smiled coyly.
"Yeah, nice try Xiaoping, but you can stop acting." She stated, "I know you are just as disgusted with her as everyone else."
Xiaoping shook her head.
"Now you're delusional too, I'm not acting, I love Irina more than anything, she's carrying my child, which I also love."
"How do you even know it's yours…Don't forget she…"
Alyssa was cut off however by Piper and Buffy's voices coming from the stage, where they had rigged up a computer and a projector to show the image of the screen on the wall behind them.
Piper and Buffy both called for attention and then began talking top the crowd while everyone watched.
"Now, as you are all aware," Piper began, "there have been…doubts about Irina for some time."
"Well, we're here to clear everything up." Buffy added.
They then explained that the testing for a voice match with the recording everybody had heard had been complete.
Piper continued to speak, "We volunteered to take it to the principal, but before we do that, we want all of you to see the results."
With that they hit a few keys on the computer and the recording, plus another that was known to be Irina's voice, from one of her phone conversations, played. After playing they were compared and both visually and by the sound there was no match. There were murmurs at this, but Alyssa still looked confident.
"Like that proves much." She stated, Buffy then spoke up. "You've all seen the time stamp on the recording too, when it was made, we've found a video of that night, taken at that exact time."
They set it up to play and Alyssa turned to Irina and Xiaoping with a gleeful smile.
"Bet this gets you down huh, your own cousins have turned against you." She remarked, neither of them replied, they were watching the screen and hoping.
Alyssa's smug grin however changed to one of pure shock as the video played. It was of her and her boyfriend and it showed her whispering to him although what she said was still audibly. They were plotting to frame Irina and then, as they were making love she exaggerated her moans, trying to sound as much like Irina as possible and then her boyfriend moaned Irina's name. Just like on the recording, but now both participants could be seen. The video ended and all eyes turned to Alyssa who was now white, either from rage or terror, it was hard to say. Then suddenly all the students began shouting, denouncing Alyssa as a liar, Piper and Buffy dismantled the equipment but before anything else could the happen the Principal spoke over the tannoy and ordered Xiaoping, Irina, Buffy, Piper and Alyssa to come to his office. They all headed there immediately, Alyssa being at the center of glares and angry shouts.
Once in the principal's office he took all the evidence of Alyssa's guilt from Piper and then spoke.
"I'm afraid that, noble as your intentions were…Your actions were a bit extreme." He stated to Piper and Buffy.
"But sir we…" Buffy began but Piper shook her head. "We figured it would be best if the school saw the truth with their own eyes, or they might still have doubts. No excuses."
The Principal nodded.
"Well, in light of that, I'm afraid the two of you are going to be suspended for the rest of the month."
They offered no argument and the Principal turned to Alyssa.
"Now, Alyssa, you have caused so much undue distress and caused so many problems, why?" He asked, Alyssa glared, "I was just showing them the truth…"
"No, you were lying, we have the evidence right here which proves it, it's been checked, authenticated. Your actions affected Miss Spalko badly."
Irina shivered and Xiaoping kissed her cheek before speaking.
"It's worse than that…Sir; Irina was really hurt by this…she, if I hadn't been there yesterday…she might have killed herself."
Irina broke into tears and tightened her grip on Xiaoping as she remembered that incident. Spending the week away from school had only caused her to over-think everything Alyssa and the others were saying and it began to drive her thoughts towards suicide, she tried to hide it but luckily Xiaoping had spotted it and helped her overcome it. Following this revelation Alyssa was to be detained while her punishment was decided, Piper and Buffy were to leave as their suspension was immediate and Xiaoping and Irina were also allowed to leave and go home in order to recover from their ordeal.
End of chapter, hope you enjoyed it, read and review please.
