She Wanted Elephant BBQ, I Went Mad Chapter 2

I quickly took a few steps away from Sam. Andy bit her lip, still glaring at

me with pure venom.

"Sam, don't listen to her nonsense. It is just a lone calf, there is no danger

at all."

"Besides, didn't we come out here for the thrill of the wild?"

Andy purred, leaning close to Sam, but he subtly stepped back, avoiding her

touch.

Her eyes snapped back to me, filled with rage. "What are you standing there for?

Go help them! Do you think I brought you on this trip to relax?"

Normally, I would have obediently bowed my head and complied.

But today, I simply shook my head. "I don't feel well. I am going to the bus to

rest."

Just as I turned to leave, a manicured hand with long acrylic nails clamped down

hard on my arm.

"Oh, please. Everyone is working on dinner and you just want to slack off? Do

you actually think you are a guest here, Tessa?"

I looked at the sharp nails. It was Andy's best friend, Lexi.

In my past life, she was the one who encouraged Andy to tie me up with the

nylon rope.

I violently shook off her hand just as a piercing, agonizing cry echoed from the

riverbank.

The boys had successfully ambushed the calf, tying its legs together.

The little elephant had a bleeding gash on its forehead from where they had hit

it with a rock. Its dark, grape-like eyes were wide with terror as it stared at

us.

Andy clapped her hands giddily. "Our feast is served!"

I was hyperventilating, my eyes darting toward the dense, dark forest behind

them.

The herd definitely heard the calf's cries of distress.

I began to tremble, bending my waist in a low, desperate plea. "Please, Andy,

just let the calf go. Elephant meat doesn't even taste good."

Before Andy could even respond, Lexi used her sharp nails to poke hard at my

face.

"Seriously? You are trying to play the saint again? Acting all pathetic. How

would you know if it tastes good or not? Even our Andy has never tried it.

Have you?"

Andy's face darkened completely. She waved her hand in pure disgust. "You are

just a maid's daughter. What right do you have to tell me what to do? If you

don't want to eat, then get lost!"

I didn't hesitate for a second. I turned to walk toward the bus, but my scalp

suddenly exploded in pain.

Lexi grabbed a fistful of my hair, yanking me backward. "Andy, she is just

trying to get out of doing work. You can't keep spoiling her."

"You don't want to eat?" Lexi gave me a malicious grin. "Fine. Then you can just

sit there and watch us eat."

Looking at the nylon rope in her hand, the terror of being trampled to death

amplified in my mind.

My breathing became shallow, and I weakly held my head, surrendering. "I am

sorry. I shouldn't have tried to slack off. I will go gather firewood right

now!"

My scalp was yanked hard again before Lexi shoved me to the ground. "See? Was

that so hard? You just had to go and upset our Andy."

I looked up to see Andy giving me a look of pure disdain. "What a coward.

Utterly pathetic trash."

Standing beside her, Sam said nothing, though his eyes were filled with deep

disappointment.

I lowered my gaze to hide the mockery in my own eyes.

For years, I had endured the relentless bullying of Andy and her circle.

I had been their dog, a humble, obedient shadow.

But even after all that submission, I hadn't earned a single shred of basic

human respect.

As for Sam, that high and mighty bystander, I both liked him and despised him.

He clearly didn't approve of eating the calf either, yet he was too cowardly to

speak up himself, waiting for me to take the fall.

Every single one of them was utterly revolting.

Since they refused to listen to reason, they could deal with the consequences.

I kept my head down, quietly moving away from the crowd to gather firewood.

The moment I was out of their line of sight, I slipped underneath the tour bus.

Gripping the emergency glass-breaking hammer I had stolen earlier, I smashed it

violently into the fuel tank.

If I was going to die out here, none of them were making it back alive either.

I had finally realized that in this world, only death is truly fair to everyone.
