Chapter VIIA Chapter by CalypsoThe rape sceneChapter VII January stood at the art gallery dressed in only her best. Lily was kind enough to send $100 for the showing. Xandera and January had found a cotton dress for that amount. Even NYC has sells sometimes apparently. As for the shoes she borrowed a pair of ‘neck snappers’ (as Xandera calls them) from the girl beside January’s dorm. Her hair was up in a nice bun and she wore cheap, fake diamond earrings. The art showing was held at an art
gallery ten minutes away from the school. Apparently ABAU owned half of it.
This building was pulled between ABAU and another art school and lucky for ABAU
it was their turn to use it. The rooms were hot and a Jazz band
played far away in the distance. Older, more sophisticated New Yorkers walked
in well dressed and drank freely of the free wine (which January also tapped
into; on one asked for ID). They also looked at the paintings, the price tag
and mumbled comments under their breaths. January was told that the paintings
were sold and 90% of the money went to the student, the other 10% went to the
school. January wanted to complain but when she saw the price for her painting
($400, $360 for her) she decided not to. 360 dollars is always better then
nothing. The only real thing she had to do was
stand by her painting and make small talk to potential customers. One older man
looked interested by her painting but really stood around at talk about the
weather and his dogs. The person to buy her painting was a women opening a
bookstore soon. January asked the big wig of the night
for her money and he told her that she could receive it at the end of the week
though Student Financial Center. The biggest surprise of the night was
finding Jared there. He too had not one, but two pieces of art in the showing.
He was so kind and generous with January. He kept brining her Diet Coke and
wine went she couldn’t leave to get it for her self. They left the building at nine p.m. It
was dark and cold out so Jared wrapped her up in his jacket and promised to
take her back to the school. The car he drove was a beat up, blue
piece of crap, but that didn’t matter; at least January could take the shoes
off. She sat in the front seat and rubbed
the ball of her foot. “Guys, really. Ya’ll never have to worry about looking
good in high heels.” “Ya’ll?” Jared smiled mysteriously. “I am a southern girl after all. I was
raised in North Carolina.” Jared popped a cigarette in and sat
back. “When we going back to the school?”
Jared hadn’t even started the car yet. “When ever you want to, I guess. I’m
just enjoying a smoke with a pretty girl.” Then he winked and handed January
the cigarette pack. “I don’t smoke.” “A girl from North Carolina who
doesn’t smoke… Way to waste wonderful cash crops.” They didn’t speak for a few minutes and
during that time January started to feel fuzzy. Her tongue seemed to be glued
on to the roof of her mouth. Even her thoughts seem to take forever to be acted
upon. When he started the car she wanted to ask where they were going but the
words she wanted to say wouldn’t come. He kept on and kept on driving. At
some point January was sure he was driving in circles. Her body felt weak and limp. When
Jared stopped her pulled her out of the car by her legs. The pavement was
scratching her face as he dragged her across it. She wanted to fight back but
she couldn’t. Thought her body felt limp her mind was only a little hazy. Jared pulled January until they were
in the woods. By the time Jared slammed January’s body into the tree she
recognized the place; it was the woods a mile away from the school. January couldn’t feel anything, but
she could hear it. He tore her dress and panties. She wanted to kick, to scream
but all she managed to do was fall onto the ground. After falling he kneeled down and took
control. January tried to think of something else, puppies, ice cream, anything
but what was happening. The whole thing took ten minutes and
when he was finished he pulled his pants back up. “Call you later.” After he said that January fell into a
deep, coma like sleep. © 2011 CalypsoReviews
