Wretched
Chapter 1 – My Mentor
I wrote down the last word needed for my composition. Mystery. That was the last word. Our teacher told us to write something about love. What the hell is she thinking? Did she expect a nice outcome for students like us who knew almost nothing about the world? We were young. No experiences yet.
I looked out into the window. The site of third year students having PE classes gave me some kind of relaxation. I was on second year high school. Seventeen years of age. Nothing much of me was interesting nor worth seeing. I was just an ordinary girl living an ordinary life.
"Krrrrrriiiinnngggg!!!!" the bell rang. It was time to go home, I thought. The teacher collected the papers and the students arranged their things as fast as they can. I also fixed mine and managed to go down the corridors. I should have gone home early but then a voice called out.
"Kaoru! Kaoru!!!!" the voice kept going. It was a male. He was brown-haired with a piece of red cloth tied at his head. He was from third year class 9. It was Sanosuke. He went near me when he realized that I had notice him.
"What the hell is your problem, Sano?" I said to compliment his childish attitude. He smirked in return and said:
"Don't be rude, Kaoru, or you want me to stole your precious first kiss…" He put his face even closer to mine trying to seduce me or something.
"Crap, you jerk! Tell me your real purpose or I'll kick down your dumb ass." I said with creepy eyes and an evil smile.
"Ok I'll tell you." he finally stated. "I came here to ask a favor."
"Do you expect me to help you down, Sano!" I tried to tease him further.
"Well, of course, you can not just leave me hangin'?"
"So what's it?" I hesitated. He looked down for a while and managed to look at me after a moment.
"We still need members of the Kendo Club. This year, only few students joined the club and the school principal said that the club will be removed if there were still no members… so please…"
"You want me to join the club, don't you, Mr. Sagara?" I said in advance as I look at him with deadly eyes. I turned my back and laughed by myself. This is my chance. This is my chance to teach that Sanosuke a lesson. After all the insults he threw upon me! After all the fighting we had before!!! It's easy to plan for revenge!
I faced him again and smiled sweetly. Ideas came rushing into my mind. Then I spoke, "Yes. I'll join… but in one condition, Sano…" I gained again my smile and his face was dark. He already detected my evil plan. I grinned more evilly and his face became darker.
"I wanted to have your whole allowance for three months!" I finally said. He was already fainting when I said this. But he has no other way. Recruit me or his allowance. His money or his club. Life is full of choices… doesn't he knew that?
"Kaoru, my money is yours!" he said crying and sniffing with all his might.
"Stop that silly thing won't you."
"I will gain revenge on you, on the proper time! Remember that Kaoru! Ugly hag!"
"You pest!"
"Asshole."
"Monster!"
The fighting was endless.
*******
It was Saturday and I went to school for the club tryouts. This was Sano's entire fault. I was dressed in black jogging pants and a sleeveless blue shirt. My hair was tied in a high ponytail. I was carrying a bag, which contains my Kendo uniform.
I ran faster. I should come early. I reached the gym after about fifteen minutes. I looked at my watch. It was 8:45 AM. I was fifteen minutes early. There was still no one in the gym. This was the best time to change my uniform, I thought.
I went into the dressing room. It was quite weird because it was open while our master was not yet around. I entered the room and placed my bag at a certain bench. I changed my jogging pants into the traditional clothing that Kendo students used to wear. When I removed my blouse, something unexplainable happened. I heard a weird sound. I don't know what was it at first but after a moment I knew they were footsteps! I looked at the door and discovered that I failed to lock the room. I rushed down to lock it, but too late. The door opened.
I was frozen when I saw a man entered. His hair was red like blood. His eyes were purple in shade and very gentle in appearance. Upon seeing me, his whole face turned scarlet.
"So…Sorry…!" he said. I tried to cover my body with my arms and hands but it was too late! When I gained myself again, I responded and… PERVERT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I screamed as hard as I could.
I quickly changed my clothes and as I go out of the room, the red-haired guy waited patiently for me. He was foolish. I hate him! He saw my precious body by accident! I took care of this body for seventeen years and I don't reserve it for just a pervert like him! He's so stupid!
"I'm sorry, Miss…I don't mean to…" he apologized.
"YoU…" the veins in my head popped out.
"It's not my fault!!! Pls. do understand me plzzz.!!!!" he again said with a smiling face. It irritated me and I said:
"You took away my virginity!!!!" I yelled.
Just as I have said that, club members entered in. They are all looking at us. Staring at us…as if we were prisoners and x-convicts…They've heard what I said.
"Oh, that's not what you think!!!" I said trying to soften what I said.
"Oh no…this is a mess…" the red-haired guy whispered with plenty of sweat drops on his head.
The people were still frozen. Almost all of their jaw dropped in my statement.
"It's not what you think! Nothing happened between us!" I said trying to defend myself. They started talking and whispering by themselves. I think I heard stuffs like:
"Oh no…our Kendo master has raped one of her students!!!"
"We shouldn't believe her… Master Kenshin is only for me!"
"Shut up! Look at our master… he looks tired! Maybe he's gone mad!"
"And look at the girl! She looked molested!!! She was raped I knew it!!!"
"I don't care as long as they were not married!"
"Will they marry each other?"
"When will the wedding be?"
"Do they already have a child?"
"How many children do they have?"
"I think they had already six."
"No, it's seven!!!"
I sweatdropped at what the people were saying. They were over-exaggerating things! At last, three of the people came. It was Sanosuke together with two women. I know the other one but the other one was knew to me. The first woman has long black hair and was wearing shorts and a T-shirt. The other one was wearing blue pants and a spaghetti-strapped blouse. The one wearing shorts was Megumi. She was also studying at our school. She was already in fourth year. The one wearing pants was unfamiliar to me. Her hair was also in ponytail and her eyes have only a slight opening.
The three of them went to the red-haired guy's side and asked what had happened. He whispered something to them and they talked to the club members about it. After a few minutes, the gossip was settled.
*
Tryouts started. But first, they introduce themselves. The red-haired guy's name was Kenshin Himura. He was the master of the whole club. Yes, my master saw my body! Damn him! I don't care if he's my master I won't forgive what he had done to me! He's a pervert.
The girl wearing pants was Tomoe. She was beautiful. I admired her gaze and the perfection of her eyes and complexion. She was like a goddess. She's a perfect reflection of a perfect woman.
Megumi was also included in the club. She was already good at Kendo. And also Sano, he teaches new beginners like me. The tryouts were no match for me. It's just easy because I took Taekwondo lessons earlier. It was nothing for me.
At about 11:30 AM, we ended. Everyone rushed home. I thought there was no other person on the gym except for me. But I was wrong. Kenshin was there. Why did he always popped out of nowhere when I thought I was alone!
"Won't you go home?" he said.
"Maybe a few minutes more…" I responded coldly.
"I'm sorry for what happened." He said.
"…"
"Forgive me…pls…"
"…" I still kept quiet. I went down towards the exit and I assume that he is following me. Even in the streets I know he is following me. I become irritated and finally faced him.
"Won't you leave me alone!" I shouted.
"Not, if you forgive me…" he said.
"I forgive you! Ok! So pls. stop following me, jerk!" I yelled.
"I won't accept your forgiveness if you won't join me for lunch, Kaoru…" he said softly with a smile. His smile was annoying. It irritates me! Infuriates me! And Destroy my life!!!! Damn him…
He smiled again and held my arm. His grip was strong. He pulled me towards a path to the restaurant. I tried to break free but I couldn't. He's strong. He smiled at me and said, "Mind a lunch with me?"
I can not do anything. I joined him and he loosened his grip.
"I don't need having lunch with you!" I said.
"Really?" he said.
"Yes! And what if I run away?"
"You wouldn't."
"I will."
"No you can't. So, a lunch with me?"
"No!"
"I insist."
"No."
"I insist."
"…"
Silence kept our way as we both entered the restaurant.
