HER ADVERSITY: Chapter 11 – 20
By Obianke Prosper
Chapter Eighteen
JEANANN POV
I slammed my phone on the floor in anger and frowned at the loud noise it created which echoed around the whole house.
Just fifty reactions? Just fifty reactions on my photo?? What have I done to deserve this? Am I not pretty enough? Do I look anyway ugly??
I stared at my reflection in the mirror but it was just the same, it was just my usual reflection – smooth face, light flawless skin, no wrinkles, no acnes or pimples, then why fifty reactions? Why less comments? I still look beautiful, right?
My face crumbled with the thought of being ugly, with the thought of everyone avoiding me cause they think am ugly. Ow..
I wipe off the tears falling from my eyes, then I began applying some makeups on my face and when I was done, I stared at my reflection in the mirror before smiling in satisfaction at how beautiful I looked.
I heard the doorbell ring from the living room and since I was the only one at home, I walked out of my room and climbed the stairs slowly.
Trust me, I didn’t care about the minutes whosoever knocked on the door is gonna wait all I care about is my pretty foot not getting sore.
Before the next five minutes have gotten to the door. I opened it but my expression changed when I saw who rang the doorbell.
It was the ugly bch Angela. She was holding a bucket filled with the materials for the project but she was shivering slightly as her gaze locked on mine.
“Um…hh…i…”.She was saying but I cut her off.
“Oh! Please hold it!”.I paused for a second. “Don’t ever dare splutter when you are close to me, do you want your stinking saliva to ruin my face and cause me pimples?”.I asked angrily and she shook in fear at the sound of my voice.
I met Angela in grade 8, I hated her cause she got pimples which kinda ruined her face. Trust me, ugly things don’t get along with me.
She isn’t really ugly though but still who cares? For me, she is ugly like the devil and just like the devil is hated, she should be hated like that too.
I don’t even know her age but I kind of think she is older than me, even if she is, that wouldn’t stop me from bullying and hating her cause she do deserve it.
“Am..so..rrrr..yy…”.She was saying but I gave her a hard knock in the head which made her stop talking.
“Oh! You are still spluttering, huh?”.I scoffed resisting the urge to throw her out of my house.
I really do need her for this project and I know a little part of me knows I truly do. Besides her being a dummy and an ugly bitch, she is a brainy in anything associated with biology.
“Sorry”.She mumbled with tears rolling out of her eyes.
“Wait…What?! How dare you talk to me with a low voice? Are you out of your senses?”.I growled and rose my hand up in the air but this time instead of knocking her, I landed a loud painful slap on her cheek.
“Ahh!”.She shrieked, holding onto her reddish bruised cheek. “Am sorry, am sorry!”.
“Now, that’s better”.I said with a wide smile as I watch her cry her eyes out.
“Ew! What a crybaby! Come on, get inside and start with this experiment already”.I added and she nodded with tears dropping out of her eyes as she went into the house.

?DYLAN’S RESIDENCE
Authoress Prosper POV
Flashback ——Three hours ago ( Before Grace’s arrival)
–_—
Dylan sat on his bed operating his phone, anyone would notice the seriousness and focus in his eyes as he stared at the red dot moving on his phone screen.
He was tracking someone!!
He smirked in satisfaction knowing fully well that the old man and his boys would be caught soon.
It wasn’t so easy as he thought but at least, he was trying but damn, only God knows his blood was boiling for something.
Revenge! Yes revenge! He could no longer wait but he just have to, for now.
“Sir….here is your food”.The door flew open and Mrs Skylar walked in with a tray on her hands.
Dylan frowned slightly but he wasn’t so angry, dear, you don’t wanna see Dylan when he get so angry.
“Didn’t I tell you to knock before entering my room?”.He asked icily without removing his glance from his phone.
“Am so sorry sir, I forgot”.Mrs Skylar bowed ruefully, looking scared.
“Drop the food and leave!”.Dylan barked at her.
“Huh?”.Mrs Skylar asked confused.
“I said DROP THE DAMN FOOD AND LEAVE!!!”.He yelled and Mrs Skylar could swear she felt his room shake due to his shout.
However, she quickly drop the food on the small sliver table close to his bed before dashing out of the room.
Dylan sighed heavily as he felt a thick liquid drop out of his nostril. He touched it but wasn’t a bit surprised to see that it was blood. He wasn’t supposed to yell, he shouldn’t have yelled but he did anyway.
His other phone began ringing and he answered it when he discovered it was one of his boys, Caleb calling.
“Boss…”.Caleb breathed out. “I have good news”.
Dylan didn’t speak, so Caleb continued.
“We found one of the old man boys and he is here with us at the torture house. You should come quickly boss”.Caleb said and with a low voice, Dylan answered.
“I will be there soon”.
