At 11 o'clock she saw the man named Josh being led by the hand to the locker room by the cute woman with the high pony tail.
"I hope he is not as stupid as I think he is.....", she said with a scoff, then put her hands together and made what looks like a prayer or a mockery of sort.
"Please prove me wrong..... Please prove me wrong Josh."
" AAAh.....mmmmmmmmmmmmm", a cried started but was muffled before it could attract any attention.
The cute woman with the ponytail was forcefully held against a wall by Josh in the locker room. Josh looked at her holding her arm that was red and swelling up and dangling in an odd direction. Something flashed in his eyes looking like pity but no sooner had it been there than it disappeared. Gone was the image of the man from before who aimed to please, that boot licker was gone and in it's place was only hatred so strong it was radiating from his whole being.
Looking her dead in the eyes Josh asked her, "Are you going to be quiet or will I have to rip your throat out?"
Seeing that he was not the easy going Josh that they always got away with bullying she was so shocked she nodded slowly and Josh removed his hand from her mouth.
"Hmmm,..... Now..... Tell me.... Why didn't I know that you were so evil and devious after we spent so much time in school studying and even hanging out? I mean you didn't even have much friends other than a few including me and we didn't have anyone bullying us. I treated you like a sister and cared for you so much that everyone thought we were truly related. It seems to me that you hated me from the very beginning didn't you?." Josh asked angrily.
" No Josh.... I'm.... I'm sorry... I.... I didn't ... I didn't...!!!!", she said weakly.
She was violently trembling from the pain now and look like she was on the verge of passing out.
"You didn't what?" Josh asked, letting her go just as her eyes was about to close from a fake faint. Just as she was about to slid down the wall, She got a hard punch in the stomach that cause her mouth to flew wide open without any sound with stars immediately dancing infront of her eyes.
"You humiliated me every time.... HA... Do you remember when you just came to the office who was it that taught you all that you needed to know huh? .... ME!!!!... Who was it that introduced you to everyone and asked them to take care of you?... Didn't your grandparents teach you to never bite the hand that feeds?..." Josh asked with a crazed look in his eyes.
"I believed you when you said you needed the help, but what did you do?.... You started by giving me the cold shoulder..... You started to act as if I hurt you... YOU LIED TO EVERYONE THAT I COULDNT HANDLE REJECTION WHEN YOU DIDNT EVEN ASKED IF I EVEN LIKED YOU IN THAT WAY..... YOU RUINED MY REPUTATION AND MY GIRLFRIEND LEFT ME..... I EVEN GOT DEMOTED... LUCKILY I COULDNT BE FIRED BECAUSE I AM A SHARE HOLDER OF THE COMPANY, BUT YOU DIDNT KNOW THAT DID YOU?.... YOUR EVIL, SCHEMING AND YOU PLAY DOWN RIGHT DIRTY....." he looked at her and his eyes began to water. He felt a heaviness from all the pent up rage and all his sufferings over the months that he endured. He fell down and curled in a corner facing her. She looked at him with silent tears flowing down her cheeks.
"Why?..... Why?... There must be a valuable reason why you would do this to me?... ME?... I never ever did anything to you..." He cried and a heart retching sob escaped his lips.
The woman began to silently cry. The more Josh spoke the heavier the tears fell she began feeling regretful of all her actions.
" Did you know that when I was beaten up on the way home by the men you hired they also went to my house and kicked my grandmother out of her wheel chair causing her to have a cerebral hemorrhage?....." He sobbed harder now remembering how they laughed and said they visited his home and his old lady was so frightened she fell from her wheelchair and passed out so he dragged himself home after being thoroughly beaten up and was sure he had broken bones only to find his grandmother's wheel chair with a dent on the back from being kicked and his grandmother groaning in pain. He called for an ambulance but passed out before he could speak.
"She died..." He hickup then continued to sob.
"She died two days later. Did you know that an old person is as fragile as a baby?. The doctor said she went into a coma and had to be placed on life support and they had to take her off it due to the complications of her health from that attack they did. They say it was causing more damage than help. She died before I could even say good bye." He cried even harder now with snot running from his nose. He braced himself up so he was on his knees and began to pound his chest with his fist in agony.
"She was so kind to you. How could you do such a thing?" He wiped his nose with the back of his hand in a fearce way like he was trying to rip his nose off.
" Why should she die after being such a good kind woman to everyone? She never harmed a soul.....AND YOU!!!!!!.... How can God allow you to be alive and living so well and carefree after doing so much evil deeds?.... IT'S NOT FAIR... IT'S NOT FAIR!... Whaaaaaaaaaa..... It's really not fair", he whimpered the last four words.
"She really didn't deserve to die like that." He hugged himself tight imagining the comfort he normally gets from his grandmother's hugs and sobbed even harder.
Fantalia was hidden in a room at the far end of the locker room but the voices could be heard through an adjourning pipe that ran from the locker room to the hidden room. She felt a dull ache in her head from watching through a crack in the wall and listening to Josh sad story.
" No wonder the boot licker looked so manic when he looked at the building previously...." She said.
Standing up and bringing out the theatrical proformace that she watched in movies she started to act sad and pitiful. Flinging her hands in the air reaching out like someone was there she began her performance.
" Oh poor poor Josh..... I feel your pain..... Poor granny shouldn't have died that way...." She wiped imaginary tears from her eyes and fake blew her nose.
" Tell you what Josh for all that you have been through....." She dabbed at imaginary tears again
"I promise to leave you for last and give you a quick and painless death so you can join dear saintly Grand-Mama in heaven."
She sneaked through a hole in the wall and watched as the woman who was not so cute anymore with the ruined ponytail passed out without Josh realizing, then she silently got close to the unsuspecting Josh and used a jab at his pressure point at his neck to knock him out.
" Go to sleep Josh. You have been through enough. Let this PRETTY FACE KNIGHT fight for you." She said in a heroic way and stood tall.
