Dear Sinful Knights, You Are Mine!

Chapter 1: Set Up 

Six Years Ago

Jane’s POV

Dad, I miss you so much, it’s been three years since you left me, you were my hero, my life, my everything, you never cared I was this chubby in nature, you were always there to protect me and provide all I needed. You made sure I never lacked and most importantly, you made sure tears never left my eyes for any reason and you always told me never to give up and be the good girl I ought to be.

Now without you, my life has crumbled, Mom is getting worse each day, her drinking habit is something else and she has gambled away everything you left for us but still, I can’t hate her, no one is above mistakes, you always taught me that, right father? I looked at our family photo the last time, tears running down my eyes. I remained on the floor without resting on my bed as I slept.

The following morning as usual, I did all the cleaning in the house and got ready to go to school, I took the bus because I knew that none of the Sinfu Knights would take me to school with their cars.

I arrived at the school premises and one of the girls who barely talked to me rushed to me saying, “Hey Jane, I thought you wouldn't be coming to school today after the event that took place yesterday.”

Is she actually talking to me now? This is crazy, I have always wanted to talk to her and be friends with her, she is so popular and beautiful.

“You don’t need to explain yourself, I felt so remorse yesterday so today I am a changed person, can you forgive me? I really want to be your friend.” She smiled at me, OMG, this is so good to be true, Angela wants to be friends with me, I feel so excited, if we are friends then I know I won’t ever be bullied again. She is like a model and also Miss Golden, the name of our high school is Golden High School, and she is the face of the school as well.

“I am not angry with you all, are you sure you want to be friends with me? I am a total loser.” I said to her wiith my hands shamelessly together and my eyes lurking down.

“Yes, I really want to be your friend or don’t you want to be my friend?” 

“I do.””

“Good, so as new friends, come with me, I have something to show you.”

“Okay.”

“But promise me if I show you, you won’t say no to me?”

“I won’t say no,” I replied with a smile.

“Okay then, see you after closing hour.” She walked away and I felt my life was going to be much better than before.

Walking to my class, someone threw a banana peel at me, “Hey, fat pig, this school is not meant for you.”

“Ugly duckling, do you want to cry?” 

“Don’t cry, fat pigs stay in the trash.” They all started again, mocking and bullying me with words.

I didn’t know when tears left my eyes, they kept throwing stuff at me and the words echoed in my head, I hate this life of mine, it’s not my fault that I am fat and also a nerd. I had to pick up my glasses that fell on the ground and wear them back.

I walked to class and the teacher was already present as well, damn it, rushing to take my seat, someone purposely brought out his leg just to make sure I fall to the ground and I ended up falling into the trap.

Everyone laughed at me and some took their phone to make a video, “OMG, she fell like a bouncing ball.”

“I thought an earthquake was about to take place, a fat worthless pig.” 

“ENOUGH!!” The teacher yelled and they all kept quiet.

“Hey, fat nerd, are you going to remain on the floor forever? Do you realize you are wasting my time?” The teacher yelled at me and I hurried up wiping off my tears and taking my seat, yes even the teacher likes calling me a fat nerd, they hate me so much and get disgusted by my presence but why? Why does everyone hate me this much? What exactly is my offence? 

Immediately after class was over, one of the boys came to me saying, “Hey fat pig,  I heard you are a maid, do you care about working part-time jobs for me in my home?” I felt so insulted and I gave him a deadly glare.

“You bitch!!! How dare you glare at me that way?” He slapped me hard on the face.

“Why hitting me? I did nothing wrong.” I said with my calm teary voice.

“How dare you speak? You are so dead.” He hit me again and continued hitting me till he was okay with it and then left the class, the painful thing was the fact that nobody helped, they just made a video.

I found Angela taking swimming lessons with no one around, I have always wanted to join the swimming group but they all refused saying I would ruin the club's image, so I just joined myself to read alone in my room at night.

“There you are, I got this for you, get changed, it’s time for swimming class.”

“Am I allowed to swim?”

“Yes, come on.”

I felt so excited that I rushed to get changed, my body was revealing but this is a great opportunity since no one is present here, I am way sure I wil be so comfortable with my new friend and I just can’t wait to write to tell Parker that I finally made a new friend who felt remorse of everything she did to me.

Stepping out, I saw almost everyone with their flashlight blinking as they took videos and pictures of me, “She is so ugly even if her skin is smooth.”

“Loser, I am going to get more followers, she looks like a fat pig.”

What pained me the most was the fact that Angela was laughing so hard at me, I walked to her and asked her the question, “Was it a setup all along? You never wanted to be my friend right?” 

“Who the hell wants to be friends with a loser like you? you got some nerves.”

“Why? Why do you hate me this much? Am a human like you, what is your gain from all these?” I got so emotional and held her hands, “Get your stinky hands off me.” She hit my hands off and pushed me hard and I ended up falling into the pool. Yes I love to swim but I really haven’t learnt how to swim, when dad was alive he always promised to teach me but work didn’t give me the chance, It was just him that taught me how to walk slowly inside the water and promise when next he is free he will teach me properly but with the way I fell inside the pool, I couldn’t get a grip of myself, I was drowning and they were all laughing about it without even bothering to render help to me.

Father, I guess this is it, my time on earth is over and I will be joining you soon. I heard my name from Parker, did he return to save me or am I hallucinating?
