"Okay everyone, today we have a new student in our class. She score the highest in the Examination to get in our class. Be nice to her. Celine, introduce yourself " Miss Blaire, The classroom teacher sound a little bit shaky. Makes me wonder, who's actually the new kid in this class? Me or her? Or is she afraid of her students? Does the rumors about this class true? That the wealthy kid bullied their own teacher for being strict?. Put that aside now. I took a deep breath and begin introducing myself.
"Hello, I'm Lu Xi'an Celine. Hope we can get along well. Thank you."
"That's it?" I nod to teacher Blair's question.
"Allright now. You can take the empty seat next to Jarron Chong." Are you serious? Jarron Chong? It shouldn't be him right? It's not him right?! Omg..How if it's really him? "Class behave and wait for the next teacher to come." After announcing that, Teacher Blair rushed and get out of the class. Weird.
I walk past Ana and Jane who sit together. They give me a big smile and a wink. When I reach my seat, I tried to look at the man who sits beside me. He's asleep. With headphone on. He's not facing me so I guess it's not him since that hairstyle is not his. He wouldn't sleep in the class as he is the perfect man. Such a relieve.
Smack! A hand land on my desk making a loud sound. The whole class looking at me and the beauty in front of me.
"Looks like the poor try so hard to climb the ladder" I felt shock for a second. How can a beauty have such a poisonous mouth? I didn't reply.
" You know that your not meant to be here don't you? Well, why bother studying hard, you can just be a mistress and get money. A slut like you could just go die. Since the tombstone really your style.. "
BAMMM!!!
The man beside me has already stand up. I wouldn't dare to see his face. But from his action, I knew he's angry .
" Hey, you damn rat. I'm trying to sleep here. Can you please keep your voice down? "
Woahh Cooooolllll..He speak calmly but that is still cool. She deserve it anyway. But rat is still so nice.. why not pig. She looks like it too.
"Sorry to bother you Jarron~~"
Eww.. so sudden! Does this rat has a problem with her identity?
"Scram!! " His voice is louder than before. The 'rat' turns white and went away. I turn to see the person who seems to be my hero in this case.
"Thanks.. "I said. He's looking at me. It feels like my trachea has been chopped. I can't breathe. This can't be real! Jarron.... him, no way.. I'm speechless.
"If you want to be in this class, don't be so weak next time." His word is not harsh but the strict aura does sound in the end of his sentence. He get up and went out of the class. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh... I could just scream in my heart. I couldn't let anybody knew this feeling. I've been keeping it even from my besties so I shouldn't leak it.
Ahhh... it's finally recess. At last I can rest a little bit. I need to go to the toilet.
"C? ".Ana came to my seat just before I went to the toilet.
"Sorry that we couldn't do anything just now. We're trying to but her gang don't let us"
"I'm sorry C." Jane interrupt.
"It's okay. I'm fine anyway" I answered them truthfully.
"So, let's go. I want to eat ." Jane break the awkward silence between us.
"Okay. You guys go on. I'm going to the toilet first. Catch up with u guys later" I almost forgot that I wanted to go to the toilet in the first place. Better take this opportunity before the reccess over.
"Okay darlss.. Same place as usual okay. Don't get lost. Haha. "Ana giggle was really cute. I gotta go now. Now or never.
