Chapter 8 - 7. Truth?

The next day.

I decided to attend class to ask my two faced friend about why would she even bother to destroy my mom photo. That was the only reason it made me reached the school. As I walked through the hallway,everyone kept staring at me like they have seen some ghost. I entered the classroom and they also stared at me. Sana was no where to be seen so I went to my desk to see some scribbles and rubbish like, 'poor girl,no parents,why did you even came to this prestigious school,I feel so dirty to even sit in the same classroom as you, I feel so sad for your mom to have a poor daughter like you,go back to your poor world' there were some cursed words as well. So this was why they all stared at me? Am I getting bullied? Whenever somebody mentions my weakness that is about my mom,I get so tensed up and mad that I don't even know myself anymore.The anxiety reaches its level and i have tried many ways to forget that nightmare and because of that,I was even on medical issue.Every time someone mentioned my mom, that incident would just run to my mind and I get freaked out. "Ple-please,stop this" I shouted and try to remove those remarks about my mom. Everyone was just bystanders. I was sure that this was all instructed by Sana,and she was not even here because in case anything happens, she knows that her name won't be mentioned. What a cunning fellow. I was getting more dizzy, it was like I was in a circular motion with those people looking at me. Some were even laughing and gossiping.I thought that there would be no one that wanted to reach out their hand to help me.

Unexpectedly, the only guy whom I judged wrong in the first place came through the door by kicking it. "What the hell is going on!" he shouted angrily,for some reason the class went quiet,it became silent and they all seemed to be scared of him too. "Was it Lee Sana who made you all do this?" he asked in anger by pulling one of guy's collar.Wait,did he knew from already that Sana was that kind of person, no wonder he even warned me too. Sana also entered at the right time, to start her drama and said "Look,I don't have time for childishness,why do you even suspect me". She lied through her teeth. She could win best actress award for the negative role.

"I am asking for the second time,was it her that made you all do these" he asked again in a calm voice. Sana was eyeing them to say deny it. But one of the girl shouted with her eyes close,"Yes she threatened us to do it".She looked down the whole time after saying that,Sana's expressions changed to anger mode.

Wow,looks like she was really a scary person.Why did I never noticed it? I felt like a fool for believing her lies.I couldn't control my dizziness, I felt my energy running out from my body and the next main I blanked out.

I woke up to see that i was taken to the infirmary. Min was waiting for me.

"You again,thanks" I replied sincerely. He always seems to be there to be on time to help me.

"Sure,now that I saw you woke up,i'll be heading to the class,so see you there", he said in a cool tone. I caught him by his wrist and asked to wait for me,so that we can go together. "Take rest for now and you can come later." I told him I was fine, since i took a lil rest so i wanted to go take class because it was important to me inspite of all the things that had happened and so we decided to head to the class together. We reached the classroom and everyone was staring at us. Sana looked so mad, but i think i should be more angry than her. The teacher also seemed to be aware of what had happened and warned the class not to that again. Also Min said in a low audible voice, "Whoever made her desk messy should clean it after the class" the teacher also agreed and he went to sit on my desk,giving me a sign that I was supposed to go and sit on his desk. I texted Sana, "Meet me after the class." She got the message but left it on seen which only meant she ignored my text .So I poked her from behind giving a sign to meet me.

After the class,Min made the responsible ones to clean the desk and I saw that almost everyone was involved except for some two or three. He definitely had a dominant and controlling vibe and maybe that's why they were obedient towards him. Sana and I decided to meet on the rooftop. I waited for her for atleast five minutes, and finally she appeared. "Since I don't wanna waste time,i'll just stick to the point,why did you even bothered to destroy my mom photo as well,you know that this was my last pic of her,how can you do this to me,I atleast did not expect this from you" I said as soon as I saw her and breathe slowly. She looked nervous after she saw the torn pic I clicked from my phone.

"Lo-Look, that was not me okay"

"Then prove it" I tried to sound confident. Looking at her behavior did made me a bit timid but I was not in a position of backing out as well. "I only hired those men to destroy your house,that was it," she tried to sound convincing.But I didn't believed her, she would be the only person to do this because she was the only one who almost knew everything about me. I asked why did she do it,and she replied with the same tone that I was just a prey to her. I tried to sound as calm as possible, "Is it because of Min young" I asked her this question because she showed her true colors only after she saw us talking to each other or maybe it was coincidence. She didn't answered me so I kept pestering her.

"Yes!" she shouted "Are you happy?" I was shocked to hear this, "Wait,if it is because of him,look we have nothing going on okay, you are getting the wrong idea" I protested.

"You wouldn't understand, can't you see he likes you from the start,I'll be honest,i considered you as one of my friend too but after he joined the school,I fell for him at first sight and wanted to befriend him like I did to you,but he rejected me. I tried talking to him but he wouldn't reply,also remember when we were eating in a restaurant, I knew he only came there to see you and I know he was staring at you the whole time,and when I also noticed you were staring at him,i got so mad,but l tried to teased you so that you won't suspect me. This jealously was eating me, slowly and I started to do those things behind your back"

"Okay" I replied back and i believed her but not fully because I really can't trust her like I used to.But maybe it was not her,I guess i was just jumping to conclusions after those things happened to me. "To be honest,the guilt was also consuming me and I sincerely apologize for doing those stupid things to you, I don't know what had gotten into me. I just couldn't control myself,and I don't mind if you do not forgive me because I know I have hurt you a lot" she said avoiding my eyes and her innocent looks were back again,she was the old Sana I knew.Since she already apologized,I accepted it like it was not a big deal.I mean,in my case it would have been hard to forgive her after what she had done to me but as humans we tend to make certain mistakes in life and it was understandable and she only did those things because she misunderstood us.

But even if I did forgave her and cleared our misunderstandings, the bonding we had with each other was not the same anymore. We just greeted each other when our eyes met during school. The days went on normally, I became more close to Min young. Sana would be with her own clique and I was happy for her as a true friend. Maybe it was fate that we were not meant to be close friends .As days goes by,my bonding with him was showing more. Sana was replaced by Min young.We became quiet close and he would drop me off from his "luxury car". People would see as something more than friends but I never really cared about it because others thought about us did not matter to me. I was not using him though ,he only insisted that he would drop me every day,and I only agreed because I had my own reasons so I thought maybe I could use that opportunity to save my money instead and this went on like our daily routine. Also, the reason why i keep saying that i would save money instead of spending is because i only had one part time job which I have not mentioned before and that was i started working as a part-timer in a cafe that is thirty minutes drive to from where I live and I only do it on weekends because I had school on other days. I was also sad at one point,because there was no place that wanted to hire me because first of all,i was a high scholar and I did not reach that certain age for their work. But after a week before my first day of school started,i got an offer that i would be working only on weekends and since then,that was how I used to meet my needs. It seemed like a dream as i was not expecting that big opportunity at all. Maybe luck was on my side.

However,the cafe was not an ordinary one though. It was a cafe where only rich high class people would come and enjoyed their lovely time. I was the only high scholar working there and I had no idea why they would accept me, and also they did not seemed to be bad people.They seemed legit good people and helped me whenever I was in trouble as well and that was one of the reason why I also loved working there even though it was just on weekends.

Anyways, saturday came and I had to get ready for my work. I always reached there exactly at five in the morning because the cafe opens at seven.
