Allergy crisis: My Roommate Wants to Kill Me

I saw the first comment that had the highest number of likes.

[Caroline_P: You’re free to eat whatever the hell you want. As long as you buy it yourself, you can eat! Why should you care about her fake allergy?]

After that, I checked another comment that had the second highest number of likes.

[Paloma_Q: Her allergy is her problem. She can choose to live elsewhere! After all, you’re not ehr parent. Why do you hace to accommodate such a stupid allergy just fo her? Eat, girl, eat more! It’s better for her to be hospitalized for that weird allergy over you not eating!]

The more I scrolled, I found another comment that had the third highest number of likes.

[Mycah_A: I’m also allergic to mangoes. My skin would have rash, but I won’t die. I guess your roommate is just too spoiled. In my opinion, you should’ve eaten the mangoes before her.]

When I noticed a few comments who defended me, they were quickly reported by people who made comments that Emily was free to eat her mangoes. Not long after that, Emily posted a comment just like what I saw in my previous life. She commented that would try to see whether I would die or not if she gave me mangoes at night just like what happened in my previous life.

I immediately took a screenshot and saved it. After all, I knew that she would delete her posts talking about me when I died. Since I noticed that the class had ended, I hurried back to school and went to the library first. After that, I took a photo of the library and told my WhatsApp group with my roommates.

[Valerie M: I’ll read in the library today. It seems that I’ll be back late. Please don’t lock the doors because I’m afraid I’ll still be outside. Thank you!]

After I told them in the WhatsApp group, the person who only responded to me was Fiona after a very long time.

[Fiona H: Ok.]

Not long after that, I hurried back to the dorm to get on my bed and covered my body with my blanket. Not only that, I also pulled down the curtain. I had an idea that I had to do.

Even though it was already fall here, it was still very hot. It didn’t help when I didn’t turn on the air conditioner and the lights. The room became unbearably hot as I was covered in the quilt. In no time, my clothes were already drenching in my sweat. I had to say that this was extremely uncomfortable. But I knew that I had to do this.

Suddenly, I heard footsteps and voices from the door. After a second or two, the door was finally opened. There were also sounds of turning on lights and the air conditioner. I knew that my cruel roommates had gone back from their class as I listened intently inside my own room.

From the noises, I knew thaat Fiona called Emily and Anna to eat together at the cafeteria with her. However, both Emily and Anna refused to eat. Instead, Emily told Fiona to go to the cafeteria first because the former told the latter that she and Anna weren’t hungry yet. It seemed that Fiona didn’t think much about it because I could hear her open the door and left.

To my surprise, Emily then called my name as if she was testing whether I was here or not. I had to admit that I was so nervous that I didn’t even ove an inch for fear that both Emily and Anna would find out that I was actually at my own room.

I could heaar Anna was laughing at Emily as the former asked the latter, “Why are you so scared? Didn’t she tell us on the WhatsApp group that she would be reading at the library and she would be back later today?”

Emily replied coldy, “Well, it’s always better to be cautious, Anna.”

Anna laughed again as she responded, “Well, Valerie isn’t a fortuneteller. She wouldn’t know that we’re here. Besides, this place is so hot. The AC wasn’t even turned on when we came. If that bitch is really in the dorm, she would turn the AC on. Otherwise, her body would boil and then she would die.”

From my room, I could hear Emily say, “Well, you’ve got a point.”

After that, I could hear Anna was walking towards my bed. From the layers of blankets that I used to hide myself from them, I saw that she took my glass from my table. She then told Emily, “Hurry up and bring me the mango powder you bought. We have to put it in before she comes back!”

Meanwhile, Emily was taking her items out of the bag for quite a while. Eventually, she managed to find a small bag of mango powder from her bag. The girl then handed the powder to Anna who quickly received it.

The cunning Emily then spoke, “Just put all the powder in. I really want to know how good she is at lying. If she’s actually fine, I’ll post her on X to let the netizens bully her until she wants to kill herself!”

Anna couldn’t help but cover her mouth as she laughed maniacally and said, “Hahaha! There’ll be a good show to watch then! Let that freak show her true colors!”

“Do you think you can bribe me with a necklace? Does she think I’m a poor girl from countryside? What an asshole!” Anna loudly complained about me.

Emily then provoked Anna even more as the former made a sarcastic remark, “Well, that’s the city girls for you, Anna. They are indeed very amazing, aren’t they?”

The reason why Anna quickly ate Emily’s provocation was because Anna did come from the countryside. From the professors, I heard that she had a terrible family. Her parents were openly favoring sons over daughters. So, they kept having more and more children until they had seven children just to get a son that they loved.

Anna was the sixth child in the family. I knew that she worked hard to get where she currently was, our university. Not only that, I was aware that she was a smart student who kept her grades good that was make her able to get a scholarship. If only they knew who she really was, it would be different.
