Saoirse's Little Game

“Sh*t, Saoirse is back! I thought she already transferred to another school?” “I don’t know! Maybe she’s here because of Roux?” “Or maybe because Sacha is still here?” "Why is she here?!" I stopped walking. I took off my Dior Sunglasses and placed them at the top of my head before I turned to look at those bees gossiping in such an early beautiful morning. I saw how their faces turned pale as I raised my perfectly trimmed eyebrow at them. “Why don’t you just ask me directly your questions since I can already hear all of you instead of gossiping?” I smirked at them, and they all trembled in fear. I slowly walked towards them and as I step forward, they also step back. I looked down at them and squinted my eyes as I look in their faces before I stood straight and then I pushed my hair back and gave them an evil smile. “Watch your backs..” I threatened and left them trembling in fear again. How can they gossip behind my back and yet they are nothing but cowards?! Annoying people! They are ruining my day! I walked away not minding everyone around watching us. I walked as if the hallway is my runway… as though I am flaunting my Channel Dress, YSL bag, and my Givenchy Sandals. I can see the envy in the eyes of the girls..and the thirst in the boys' stares. I walked with my head held high not caring about anyone. Why would I? They have no use on me, they are worthless, and my time is priceless. So, I should not waste it to anyone. “Elise!” I called on my twin sister. She is already sitting in her favorite chair in our school Café. I look at her from head to toe, she looks so pure and innocent in her white dress that I almost vomit! I know she is nice like a saint but she doesn’t have to look sooo nice..I mean like a good girl that people might take advantage of! But what can I do? Sacha Elise is a saint, yeah..a living saint! Ugh! She is so annoyingly good! A nice person! Sweet and demure! The super opposite of me! Good thing we don’t look alike. Well, we are fraternal twins! And so, if people don’t really know us, they may think of us as sisters but not twins. “You left me!” I pouted as I took the seat beside her. She gave me a warm smile. Her smile can brighten up one’s day. It is so positive and will really warm your heart. “You are taking so long in preparing, I had to leave early because I need to submit your documents.” She said in her soft-spoken and angelic voice. How can someone get mad at her? Even when I am so annoyed at her, it will just fade away whenever I hear her calm voice. I sighed and she giggled in a very demure way that made me roll my eyes. She knew that I cannot stay annoyed at her. “I heard you terrorize someone this morning?” her eyes are full of concern, and I sat up straight. “I just made them shut up, they are so noisy, and they are trying to ruin my day,” I said lazily and she just looked at me like reading my mind. I pouted and she shook her head. “Have you seen Roux Dimitri?” I asked excitedly. Roux Dimitri is her best friend and my future boyfriend! They met here in this school. Sacha and I studied in this School in our elementary days, but I decided to change school during my sixth grade since I went with my mom to Phoenix Arizona because of her work. And Sacha stayed with our dad in our home here in Cali. It was a sad time for me and Sacha because we have never been apart before, and not for too long, but I had to go with my mom, so she won’t be alone in Arizona. One day, Sacha had a school project and had her groupmates went to our house to finish their project, and that time I went back to our house in Cali because my Mom and I missed Dad and Sacha. So that is when I met Roux Dimitri. And boy, I was smitten. I have seen lots of handsome guys and most of them courted me or made a move on me but, when I first saw Roux, it is like they all paled in comparison. His green eyes are the prettiest eyes that I have ever seen! They are so beautiful and yet so cold-looking. His pointed nose is too perfect, and his thin lips and cleft chin make him look dreamy. The moment that I got the chance to talk to Sacha, I already stake a claim at Roux. I told Sacha that I like Roux and he is mine. And my sister just looked at me like she cannot believe what I have said. “Do you like him?” I asked as my eyes turned narrow. I need to know. She might like him..and if I like him as well we got a real problem here.. “No.” she said fast and looked away. I jumped in joy and enveloped her in my arms. “I am so happy Elise! At least I know that I won’t hurt you in the future.” I said sincerely and happily. I stalked Roux in his social media accounts, and every time that he is in our house, I made sure that he will notice me. I even gave him a hint that I like him, why not? I am not someone who will just wait for a guy that I like; I am the one who will pursue the guy if I need to! Not that I have done it before, so this is really exciting for me, this is like one of the best challenges that I have ever encountered! So... I decided to talk to my mom and told her that I will go back to my old school the following school year and she agreed. And seriously, I am shocked to know that the people here already know my fascination with Roux! But whatever! I am not shy to admit it, actually, I will stake a claim on him in this school, so that they will all back off! “He will not be back yet until next week.” She said before she opened her sandwich. “Ohhh? Why?” “I don’t know.” “How come you don’t know?! You are the best friend!” “Not the girlfriend though.” My lips parted. What does she mean by that? “Does Roux have a girlfriend already?” I asked with gritted teeth. Sacha’s eyes turned wide, and she shook her head fast. She knew that I will be turning into a monster real soon. Her rosy cheeks turned pale. “No! No! that’s not what I meant!” she said still in a soft voice yet obviously in panic. “Then what do you mean?” I asked as I tried to calm myself, I placed my arms in front of my chest and waited for her to talk. “I mean... that kind of information is not always shared with a best friend! Usually, whereabouts are said to the girlfriends!” I sighed. The red which I am seeing a while ago, suddenly faded as I calmed down. “Oh.. okay.” I said and smiled at her. I saw how she swallowed hard and turned to look away.
