"Arizona!" Yang cautioned but she slapped Mrs Yeji again and again till she fell.
"How dare you!" Mrs Yeji said, her eyes red already as a result of the slaps.
Arizona pulled the poor woman up and wiped her tears.
"Yang, one of my debit cards" she said.
Yang gave her one and she gave the woman.
"004, spend it judiciously" she said .
"Huh?, For me?, gamsahamnida!, Jungmal gomasseumnida (Thanks, I'm very grateful)" the woman said and Arizona smiled as she walked away.
Mrs Yeji spranged up.
"Arizona!, You're going down for this!" She spat.
"So you know my name, I don't know what makes you stupid but whatever it is, it's working perfectly" Arizona replied and left with Yang.
" The battle line has just been drawn!" Mrs Yeji yelled after her
" Arizona, Mrs Yeji is old enough to be your mother how could you" Yang whispered beside her.
Arizona stopped and turned back.
"Why didn't you tell me that earlier" she said and walked back to Mrs Yeji.
Yeji smirked.
"Here to apologise?" She glared.
"No, to complete your dose" Arizona smiled and slapped her again.
" Arizona!" Yang gasped.

HAESUNG UNIVERSITY**
ENGLISH DEPARTMENT**
"That'll be all for today, let's call it a wrap" the cheerful lecturer said, packing his books.
" Yes sir" the students chorused.
Vince took his two books and stood.
His jean is faded, same as the shirt he's wearing, his sneakers are far from good but his face is handsome.
"Are you going already?, We still have one class left" Chrissy said beside him.
Chrissy is a rich girl... everyone in the school is rich except him.
He's here on scholarship right from his year one till now cos of his extreme brilliance.
Chrissy is his only friend.
"I won't be able to wait, I have to go work part-time" he replied.
"You got an additional one?" She asked, standing up.
" Yeah" he replied.
"You have three before, plus this additional one, making four, Vince the stress" she said, holding his arm.
" I wasn't born with a silver spoon like you, I have to work to support my junior brother and mum" he replied.
" But I can help, I can give you a black card and you won't have to work again" she offered.
She offered that several times but he has always turned her down.
"Can you borrow me your new textbook?" He asked, ignoring the question.
"Of course" she replied and quickly brought it out.
He took it and made to go but she held him still.
"I'll give you a ride, lemme drop you" she said.
"No, you should stay for the last class so I'll get the note from you tommorow" he said and she let him go reluctantly.
" Ok, see you!" She said.
He left class and Chrissy inhaled before sitting.
"Just how many part time jobs will he do" she muttered.
Vince was still walking out of school when he bumped into Summer.
Summer is the daughter of the owner of the school so she always gets away with anything she does, good or bad.
She has never tried doing good though.
"Hey golden boy" she said, touching his face but he stepped back.
He tried taking another way but she blocked him again.
"Why don't we click?, Like get closer?" She smiled, trying to touch his face again but he held her hand.
She moaned b*tchily and smiled.
"I love your touch, how I wish it was on another place, my b**bs" she winked.
"You have a lot of money, buy some dignity if possible" he glared and threw her hand off before leaving.
Summer chuckled, watching him till he left her sight.
"You belong to me... Vince" she smiled.
Vince hasn't gotten out of the school when his phone rang.
He brought out his phone ... The screen is filled with cracks already.
It's Blaze calling, his junior brother.
He picked quickly and Immediately heard struggling sounds
"Hyung!" Blaze's voice said urgently.
"What's up?" He asked quickly.
"The house owner is here, threatening to throw us out" Blaze replied.
" Where's mum?" He asked.
" She's trying to beg but Mrs Yun is not ready to listen!" Blaze said.
" I'll be there" Vince replied and hung up.
He stopped a taxi which drove him home.
He got home and truly the house owner, Mrs Yun is not smiling.
"It's been six good months!, Six months since you losers payed your rent!, I'm not running a charity organization!, It's my house and you need to pay!" She ranted.
" Mrs Yun... please...." Vince tried to beg.
" Don't beg me I'm tired of it!, People will think I'm wicked if they see me shouting like this,not knowing you guys are the real devils!" She yelled.
" We're sorry, I promise to pay up before the end of this month, I promise" Vince pleaded.
" You better!, If you don't!, I'll throw you guys out!, Seems you guys were cursed with poverty!, Find a way to lift the curse and pay me my money! " She said and left angrily.
" Mum you didn't shout with her did you?, You know it's dangerous for you" Vince said, holding Alena.
" I didn't" she smiled sadly.
" Hyung" Blaze said.
" Stay with mum, I need to go work right now" Vince said.
" I need to go work too, I got a part time job too, you can't be the only one working" Blaze said, putting on his worn out shoes.
"I told you to just focus on reading, you're resuming school tomorrow remember?" Vince protested
" Bye mum!" Blaze smiled, rushing outta the house.
" Let him be, you know how stubborn he can be" Alena said.
" I'll be on my way too" Vince said.
" Alright" Alena smiled as he left the house too.

ARIZONA'S FASHION INSTITUTE**
All her staffs and students bowed in greetings as Arizona walked in.
The video of what she did to Mrs Yeji is trending fast but as usual, she cares less.
Yang led her into her office where Mr Kevin is waiting.
Mr Kevin is the manager of Zanillia
Zanillia is a multibillionaire in China, she's currently in need of a new fashionista for her dresses.
Arielle and Arizona are both struggling to get her attention so it's like survival of the fittest.
Anyone who gets the contract will surely become more popular.
"Hey Mr Kevin" Arizona sat in front of him.
"Miss Banks" he smiled naughtily.
Yang excused them.
"The showcase is next week, I need you to tell me Zanillia's preferences" she said and Kevin smiled.
" Nothing goes for nothing" Kevin smiled
"If I get you right, you want something in return" she replied.
" You're just as smart as you've been described, well yes" he replied.
"What do you want?" She asked and he stood.
He walked to her and stood behind her.
She suddenly felt his hands on her shoulders, caressing it.
"You" he whispered and she smiled.
She licked her lower lip slowly.
"Me?"
"Yes you, a night is ok" he replied, still caressing her shoulders.
Her expression suddenly changed and she grabbed his arm, twisting it hard.
"Aarrgh!!!!" Kevin screamed in pains.
Arizona stood and flipped him across her shoulder.
He landed on the ground heavily, his tailbone almost breaking.
"Snake!, Freak!, You want me?, Hahahaha!, How funny, you?, You must have been born in an highway cos that's where most accidents happen" she glared.
Another look at his shoes, she pulled them off his legs.
"No!...my shoes!" He shouted.
Yang rushed in and his eyes widened when he saw Kevin's position.
"Arizona!, How could you take his shoes, he can't possibly walk out with only his socks, what did you do to him?" He said, facing her.
Arizona looked back at the socks on Kevin's legs and smiled like a witch.
"Thanks for reminding me Ligament" she said and went back to Kevin.
She ripped the socks off his legs.
