Ever since that night, Jiu felt distant towards Taeyong.
She made up her mind that Taeyong is still her guardian and she needs to do whatever he wants.
She went out of her room to grab something to drink when she saw Taeyong, also coming down from the stairs.
"Finally you went out of your room. I thought you're planning on being a prisoner."Taeyong said with his poker face.
"I'll just grab something to drink..."she said without giving him a glance.
"Why aren't you dressed yet?"
Jiu looked at her with what he asked.
She thought they'll go somewhere again.
"You have school right?"Taeyong said.
"Y-you want me to go to school?"she asked surprised.
"Go and fix yourself. I'll wait for you."
Jiu instantly went inside her room and fix herself quickly, not wanting to be scolded by Taeyong who seems to be in a better mood than the last time she saw him.
"Let's go."Taeyong said and they entered his Black van.
Jiu's quite surprised that Taeyong knows where she's studying.
Jackson must've told him.
The moment they went inside the school, all eyes were on them.
Psh. They must be thinking who the heck is this handsome guy.
"You don't have to go and take me to school."Jiu said to Taeyong.
"What are you saying? I'm also studying here." -Taeyong
Jiu tightly shut her eyes because of embarrassment.
"I... I should go and find my classroom."Jiu excused to run away from the embarrassment.
Truth is, she doesn't even know if she's still part of her class or what.
Before she could even take her second step, Taeyong suddenly pulled her by the hood of her jacket, making her almost sit on the ground.
"Who says you're going there. You'll come with me."
Taeyong dragged her off to somewhere.
×××××
"Mr. Lee - - -"
"You heard it. I'm taking her with me to all my classes. She will transfer there."
"Mr. Lee Taeyong, you are her senior. You're a year ahead of her."
"I'm not stupid not to know that."Taeyong said.
"What you're saying is ridiculous. Just let her go back to her class."the headmaster said.
"He's right - - -"Jiu agreed but was cut off.
"You shut your mouth."he shot.
Taeyong looked at the headmaster.
"Look. I'm not asking for your opinion. I'm saying this to inform you."
"Still, Mr. Lee. This is a school and I am the headmaster."
Taeyong smirked.
"This wouldn't be a school without my family's wealth. This might even be a dumpster and you might be the trash. Our company saved this shit, and I am the boss. Technically speaking, my words should be your law." -Taeyong
Wow... His superiority is on another level.
Jiu thought to herself.
"If you wanna live longer, learn how to bow down to me."Taeyong said before he stood up and drag Jiu out of the office.
"From now on, you'll attend my class."
"But I - - -"
"Gonna disobey me?"he looked at her, reminding her that it is not her right to complain.
"N-no."
"Good then. Because everyone who disobeys me, deserves a taste of hell. You don't wanna taste that, do you?"Taeyong said which sends her shiver.
"Anyways... It's 2 in the afternoon. Let's grab something to eat."
Thank God! I'm starving!!
Jiu didn't even complain with that since she's hungry as hell. She's craving fast foods. But he didn't even bother to ask what she wants to eat.
"Go on. Eat up."
Taeyong brought her to a Japanese restaurant.
He ordered her ramen but she's not in the mood to eat ramen neither any of the menu there.
"I'll just eat in school."she reasoned out.
The serving of the ramen is quite big just for one person. She's not craving ramen today.
"You. Eat. Now."
Though she doesn't really want to, she slowly eat because of Taeyong's words.
After forcing Japanese foods into her stomach, they immediately went out.
"What? You'll let me go to your class alone?!"
Jiu's panicking since Taeyong said he have to go back to the office to fix something.
"Have something against it?"
"I - - -"
"I'm the Boss. Shut up."he cut her off again.
Jiu seemed anxious and nervous.
"I'll call you later."he said then leave her alone.
"Ugh!!!! I hate you Lee Taeyong!!!"
×××××
"Oh is that her?"
"Yeah. I saw she was with Taeyong earlier..."
"Slut."
"Hope she'll last a week here."
Murmurs about her went in and out of her ear.
Taeyong's classmates didn't stopped talking about her ever since she stepped in their class.
This is why she hate school. It's too dramatic for her.
She spend the whole time, spacing out in classes since she can't really understand anything.
All she knows is that, the teachers and the students doesn't like it there. So does she.
She doesn't like being stuck in a place full of Taeyong-addicts.
She was about to get the hell out of school when someone approached her.
"So you're the one Taeyong brought... You're not his type of girl though."the girl said and even eyed her.
Psh. Typical school bitch who's too thirsty for Taeyong's attention.
Jiu thought as she smirked.
"He's not my type too."Jiu said and walked passed by her.
"Welcome to hell, bitch!!"the girl yeed loud enough for her to hear.
Just shook her head.
I've been in hell longer than you thought, bitch.
As if she'd be defeated by a verbal attack.
Instead of going home, she decided to stroll around and have a bit of fun.
She was planning on playing on arcades or just going to Karaoke bars.
She just got the tokens to play the Basketball in the arcade when someone grabbed her arm.
"Miss!! Help me!!"the guy said.
"W-what?"she looked up at him and damn. She was in awe before she knew it.
"Someone's chasing me and you're the only one who can help me."
Jiu can't say no. He's too charming.
He seems problematic but he's still cute.
"Xuxi!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
They were both shocked when they saw a woman, coming towards them.
"P-patricia..."
Jiu just eyed the two of them.
"Is this the girl you've been talking about?!!"the girl yelled,catching the attention of everyone who's playing in the arcade, mostly in the Basketball section, where Jiu is.
"You'll replace me with this girl?!"
"P-patricia..."
"She's not taller, prettier and sexier than me!!! Why the hell her?!!"the girl kept on yelling which annoyed Jiu.
Oh. Now you're looking down on me? Huh.
"Hey you - - -"Jiu was about to spit fire on her but then, the guy spoke.
"I'm not dating her!! She... She... She's the new maid!! Yeah our maid!!! I just... I'm just here to help her buy stuffs..."he lied.
The heck?! Me?! HIS MAID?!!!
"I told you stop getting jealous..."
Now they're being lovey-dovey in front of her.
"I knew it. She's your maid. She looks like one."
Hell no, bitch. I'll show you who I am.
"Hey you. Better control that filthy mouth of yours if you don't want to suck on this tokens. Got that? Slut."Jiu snapped.
"What?!"the girl was obviously offended.
"Bless you and your boyfriend."Jiu hissed before walking her way between them and bumping on their shoulders purposely.
"Weirdos!!! They'll fight then they'll be sweet?! Bullshit. Are they in a drama?! Psh. They look like squids."
Jiu rants as she walk out of the arcade.
Speaking of squids, she saw a squid plushie on her way home that's why she got so annoyed.
×××××
Jiu thought that Taeyong wouldn't be home by the time she'll be home but she saw him there...
Playing VR Box on his living room.
Wow. Such a MATURED CEO.
Before she knew it, she was once again lost in her thoughts while watching how Taeyong enjoys playing.
It must feel so good to live like Taeyong... Just careless... Reckless... Selfish... How I wish I can just live like that.
Taeyong removed the VR Box from him and he looked at her.
"Why are you late?"he asked seriously.
"There's - - -"
"It's been hours after out dismissal. It's not traffic. Did you just walk your way home?"he said as if he's interrogating her.
"Anyways... You came home late. I'm so hungry."Taeyong whined and throw his VR Box on the sofa.
Tss. Rich kid attitude.
"Why are you waiting for me? Do you want me to cook?"
"Idiot. Let's go and eat." -Taeyong
"I'll follow. I'll just change clothes..."
"Shut up. I've been starving for hours."
Jiu was dragged again to the dinning room.
Jiu's mouth gapped when she saw all the mouthwatering foods served on his long rectangular dinning table.
Chicken... Burger... Fries... Sundae... FAST FOODS!!!
"I don't really know what fast food brands you like, so I bought what's available."Taeyong said.
Jiu was is awe with all the foods that she can't say anything but WOW.
"You should eat now."
As Taeyong said, Jiu digged in the foods as if she haven't eaten for days.
She likes fast foods the most.
"This is my treat to you for going to school today."Taeyong suddenly said.
"Will you let me go to school... Regularly?"Jiu asked.
"You think I'll transfer you to my class if not?"Taeyong shot.
Jiu realized that he's really eager to get her back to school.
"Why? Don't you want to?"
"N-no... It's not that."Jiu said.
"Something's in your head. Speak."Taeyong ordered.
"It's been a while since the last time I went to school..."
"I don't care. I am your guardian now. I'll be the one who will be decide what you will do with your life as long as you are here with me." -Taeyong
I don't even know if that's something I should be happy about...
Jiu just nod at what Taeyong said since she knows it all.
"Good then. Go on. Finish eating."Taeyong said as he stood up.
"Taeyong..."
"What?"
"Thank you."
Taeyong smirked.
"Relax. It's just chicken. Nothing to be flustered about."
Fool. You really are childish sometimes, Mr. CEO.
Taeyong couldn't help but beam a smile as he made his way to his room.
But then, he realized he's smiling with no reason.
"The fuck, Taeyong. Wake up."he hissed to his self.
Actually... The only reason is HER.
And sure he knows that.
"You owe me big time, Jackson."he really couldn't help but smile as he shook his head.
×××××
"Master T.Yong ordered us to prepare this breakfast for you, Milady."Mr. Jang greeted her and showed her the buffet style breakfast.
"He also ordered us to make sure that you'll eat well before you leave."
"Where is - - -"
"He left for work, Milady."
Jiu ended up eating alone in the large dining room with the maids aligned every corner, just staying silent.
×××××
When Jiu entered the classroom, all eyes were on her.
"Oh. You're here. Perfect. The class meeting will just start."
Jiu took her seat.
"We just want to let you know something..."the girl said.
She looks like the representative of all girls with swollen cheeks because of too much blush make-up.
"Since we are your seniors... And you are new here... We can guide you."
They were standing right in front of her.
"To be able to survive here... You'll need us."
"W-what?"
"It's fraternization. Social groups. Clique. Call it whatever you want. But that's what you need here."
"Do I have to join that?"Jiu asked.
"Yeah. But you know... Every society has laws... And you have to abide. But don't worry we can go easy on you."
Before Jiu could answer, they drag her off to somewhere.
"For now... We'll let you sneak in our Club room."
They smiled meaningly to her.
×××××
And here's Jiu now. Typing at their laptop.
They 'asked' her to type something for them. Since they're busy, they asked her and promised her they'll buy her foods.
As if she had a choice.
She kept on typing until the bell rang for the break.
They came back for her and said they'll take it from there.
They did bought her snacks.
Coffee... And doughnuts...
From the 7th floor of the school building, she went back to their classroom in the 3rd floor.
She was about to go straight to the cafeteria when she heard someone yelled.
"SQUUUUIIIIDDDDD!!!"
What the heck? Squid?!
Jiu looked at the person who yelled.
He was the - - -
"Hi."
Jiu glared at him.
"Are you calling me SQUID?"she hissed.
He laughed loud enough to catch some of the students' attention. Well, his looks is enough to catch attention.
"No... Not really. I don't know your name and I haven't said thank you for the last time."he said with a smile.
If You never met him at the first place, she would fell for his smile. But hell no. She'll never fall for this boy.
"Thank you? For what? For how your seagull-looking girlfriend talked shits on me?"Jiu hissed.
"Seagull? You called us squids back then... And now... Seagull? Wow. You must love animals then."
Jiu rolled her eyes on him.
"But correction, she's not my girlfriend anymore. She's my ex now."
Do I look like I care?
"She realized that someone like her, doesn't really belong to someone as perfect as me."he said with confidence in his voice.
Jiu's jaw dropped with what he just said.
"Yeah, whatever."Jiu said and she was about to leave him but he stopped her.
"Wait. You're a senior as well right?? It's already break time. Is that what you'll eat?"he eyed the box of doughnuts and the coffee she's holding.
Jiu raised her brow.
"I'll just have this. I'll just treat you."he suddenly grabs the black coffee and took a sip.
Jiu didn't mind since she's not a fan of black coffee.
Just then, he spits the coffee right straight on the floor.
"What the fudge..."
His facial expression is weird.
"Where did you buy this?"he asked with his forehead creased.
"Someone just gave to me. Why?"Jiu said.
"This is not coffee!! This is soy sauce!!"
Soy sauce? Psh. They gave me soy sauce? Bitches.
Jiu looked at him and he looked like he want to clean his mouth with a vacuum cleaner.
"Thanks for drinking it for me though."Jiu said.
She wants to laugh because his face is priceless.
"How about that? What's that?!"
"They said it's doughnuts."Jiu shrugged.
"Doughnuts?!! It must be boogers!!!"he said.
"Wha- - -"
"Don't eat that!!! I'm sure that's boogers!!! I'll just feed you!!"
"But it's a waste to throw these away."Jiu said.
"Are you seriously regretting not eating boogers?!!"
"Maybe it's not - - -"
"Please!! Just listen to the handsome guy in front of you!!"
Jiu's jaw dropped for the second time.
"I know... I know my handsomeness is jaw-dropping. But you should stop it before your saliva drops."
"Can I ask you something?"Jiu said.
"How to achieve this good looks? It's natural. 100%."he proudly said.
"Are you fucking insane?"
"W-what?"he was shocked with what Jiu asked him.
"That's what I wanna ask you."Jiu said.
"Oh come on! I know my handsomeness drives you insane- - -"
"You want the doughnuts?! It's yours!!! Just please!! Stay away from me!!"Jiu offered.
"Booger doughnuts? Eww. No."
Jiu couldn't help but really roll her eyes on him.
"Let's just eat. Come on, I'll treat you."
Is he even safe to be with? Because... I don't think so.
He noticed that she's not moving an inch.
"Why? Are you too intimidated by my presence?"he asked.
Damn it. His confidence is really something.
"Fine, I'm just hold you here."
He held the hem of the sleeve of Jiu's jacket.
"Let's go."
He pulled her sleeve towards the cafeteria.
"They're looking at us. That's how powerful my visuals are."he said confidently.
Jiu took her sleeve back from him.
"I don't want to eat. I'm full."Jiu reasoned out.
Truth is she lost her appetite just by this talking machine. He's too loud for Pete's sake.
"Oh come on! I know, you've my handsome face makes you feel full but please... You can't chew me."
Jiu had enough. She was about to get out but then he made her sit on the chair.
"Stay there. We will eat."
He did buy foods for her.
Jiu finished eating quickly so she can run away from this weirdo.
"Thank you. I enjoyed the foods. I hope we won't see each other again."she didn't hesistate to say.
He just laughed at her.
"Oh. Tell me your name so that I can avoid you."she said.
"My name? Psh. Just ask anyone who's the handsome guy here. They'll answer my name."
Yeah right.
She walked out from the cafeteria, still thinking how did that guy manage to compliment his self.
He is handsome but the heck... How can he compliment his self each minute he can?!! That's absurd!!!
Jiu was about to enter the classroom when she saw someone.
Taeyong?
"You seem shocked to see me. Have you eaten?"he asked.
Jiu just nod. She was t expecting he's not coming to school.
"What's that?"
Taeyong eyed the box of doughnuts she've been holding.
"Here. It's yours."Jiu handed it to him.
"Did you made it?"
Is that even important?!
"It was given to me by someone - - -"
"Okay."
He did stole the box from her and went straight inside the classroom, and Jiu could hear the girls fangirl over him again.
Here goes nothing.
She just followed him inside.
Just then, she saw Taeyong tossing the box of doughnuts in the trash can.
Jiu looked at her, surprised.
"Are you crazy? Why did you throw it throw it away?"she hissed.
"It's trash. Since you gave it to me, it's not yours anymore so I can do whatever I wanna do to that piece of shit."Taeyong hissed.
Jiu can feel the eyes of the girls on them.
They looked shocked just like she was.
But she got more shocked when Taeyong looked at them too.
"Why are you looking at me that annoying faces of yours?"Taeyong snapped.
"Hey."Jiu tried to stop his mouth.
"Don't tell me you were the one who gave her that trash?"
Finally you've realized it!!
"My bad. Thought it's crap."he shrugged.
"Can't you be a gentleman for once?"Jiu hissed at him though she knows she's asking for an impossible thing.
Taeyong just glanced at her before a smirk was once again etched on his handsome face.
He stood up which caught their attention.
Now what is he planning to do?
Taeyong grabbed the trash can and place it on the girls' table.
"The doughnuts were yours right? Here. I'm returning it back."Taeyong said seriously.
Is he freaking serious?!!
"What? Isn't this gentleman enough? Do you want to shower you with this shits just so you can get the doughnuts?"Taryong said intently and they all know he can do it.
Even Jiu wouldn't be surprised if Taeyong will do that in the next seconds.
"N-no... Don't bother..."
The girls said and they were the ones who picked the box of doughnuts from the trash can.
Eww. Gross.
Taeyong just went back to his seat as if he didn't do anything bad.
Is he always like this?!!
If you guys are curious how does a Lee Taeyong behave in class... Well...
He didn't do anything except for yawning endlessly.
He even stood up first when the bell rang for dismissal.
Jiu was still fixing her stuffs while Taeyong's obviously on his way home.
She went out of the classroom and she almost bumped to someone.
"Hi."
