"What did you do to him?" The guy asked me calmly but the cold tone in his voice is evident.
My lips rose. Hmm, is he roleplaying the hero character here? That's new, huh. No one has the guts to ask me after the trouble I made. I wonder what's with him..
"I stamped him. What about it?" I said, like it's nothing to be cared of.
"Van.." Rocelia called me in her trembling voice, she's as if afraid.
I wondered more. Why would she afraid? To whom? To him? Who is he anyway?
The guy arranged his own specs and put his one hand in his pocket."Why did you stamp him?" He asked me then, he handed his other hand to the boy. He's helping him to stand.
The boy stood up with the help of him. My eyes crinkled. What is he doing? I'm starting get annoyed!
"T-thank you," the boy thanked him and held his books tightly to his chest. Then, he left already.
"Hey! I'm not yet done with you!" I shouted and almost chase him.
"Enough, miss." When the meddler guy stopped me. I looked at him angrily."I know him and I don't know you. You caused trouble here in your first day of school. I see, you're the transferee from section 8. Now I know why." He said in a monotone.
I looked at him in disbelief. Did I hear it right? No one have told me words like that, he's the only one! How come?
"And who do you think you are? For what I know, you're not the dean nor guidance minister here." I stepped closer to him, he didn't even wince. He didn't step back.
"Van, let's just go!" Rocelia tried to stop me but I didn't let her.
"What now? Where are your guts? You're acting like a hero earlier, huh. Do you want a fight? What are you capable of?" I raised my brow, he remained standing like an statue."What are you bragging about? Show me what you're capable of, come on!" I pushed his shoulder.
"Omygod! She's insane! Poor transferee.." i heard from some of the students at our side.
My forehead creased. Rocelia made me face to her. She put her hands above my shoulders and shook it both.
"Vanez, what are you doing? You don't know what you're doing so stop it already! You don't know him! Please, don't make things worse." She told me horribly.
"Huh? You're the one who don't know me. Let me go," I removed her hands on my shoulders.
I looked again at the guy. Why is he not talking? Did he zip his mouth already?"Have you lost your balls? What now? Boring!" I said straight to his face and rolled my eyes.
"The next time you make trouble, It won't be me who'll face you. This is your first warning, miss."
Time's up. I paused my supposed to be walk out when he finally spoke up and said those behind my back but when I turned to him, he's walking away already. Leaving me dumbfounded. I can't believe it..
What just happened?
Everyone was back on their own tables and minded their eating session, conversations about the commotion opened and that's all their topic. I bit my lip and fist tightened, I heavily left the place.
"Van, wait!" Rocelia followed me.
My walks continued, I only stopped when I reached the field. She successfully chased me. She put her hands on her knees and composed her breathing again.
"You're always making me chase!" She pouted.
"I don't care! What I only care about is what happened! I'm confuse, I mean who the hell is he to warn me, huh?! No one ever did that to me!" I put my hand on my waist, problematically.
I heard her sighs.
"I told you to stop already. Now look at what you've done. Since you're just new here, let me introduce you the guy earlier," she gave me her persuasive look. I waited for her next words."He's Yukenzo Cabrera, the SSG president of Clinton High! Everyone follows him because he's a good leader! And what you did is very wrong!" She explained out.
I can't believe anymore. After she told me the reputation of that guy named Yukenzo, I suddenly want to pull my own hair. Not because I'm scared and I regret what I did. But because I should've made things worse than ever! I should've proved to all of them that their said president is a weak and powerless leader!
"Why you didn't tell me immediately? I should have known it early! Tsk!" I tsked, frustratingly.
She narrowed her eyes."And why, huh? Are you planning something worse?" When I didn't answer, she began shooking her head."Oh no, no, no, no! No! You wouldn't do it! I won't let you do it, Van!" She gave me a warning look.
"What for you? Have you forgotten what I said right away? You don't meddle with my business and we're good. You want me to be your friend, right? Then, support me. Friends supports each other in any way. That's what 'friends' for."
I know she noticed the sarcasm in it. She gulped and folded already.
"Hmm, let's see if his patience is trained enough to handle me. This is going to be fun. President, huh." I smirked at my evil thoughts.
I can see the disappointment in Rocelia's look, I don't give a fuck. She wants to be my friend right? Then, be it.
Right after I went outside our limousine. I'm all smirk. This is the second day and my plan is about to start. But before that, I didn't let the annoying bodyguards of Dad accompany me 'til the gate.
"I can handle myself alone! Go the fvck away now!" I shouted at them and they are immediately moved their ass out my sight.
I rolled my eyes and breathed out. Gosh. Dad really know how to make me annoy. I'm not a kid already as what he always sees me. I'm always proving it to him but he's just blind enough to even see it. I don't need his bodyguards because for me, they are all useless!
I took out my shades and put it above my polo buttoned shirt. I'm also wearing scarf and most of all, a civilian outfit. I love my crimson heels today. I feel so free and confident. Dad couldn't do anything when he saw my look today. Good thing I gave the security guard some cash to let me enter here.
"Van, is that you?" Rocelia appeared with her new hairstyle, ponytail.
She surveyed me from head to toe. I smiled widely and nodded happily.
"What can you say?" I asked and turned around.
"Fabulous!" She clapped but it faded after seconds."Wait, what? Why are you not wearing our school uniform today?"
I looked at her flatly."What do you think is my reason?" I asked back.
"Oh my!" She covered her mouth."Are you really gonna push his button? Van, you don't know what you're doing! He's the leader and you're just a---" I cut her off.
"A badgirl! He's a leader and I'm a bad girl!" I snapped. She shut up."I can break all the rules, even his own rules! Don't be so kill joy, girl! I'm telling you, this is gonna be fun. Trust me," I winked.
She sighed and didn't argue anymore. My smirk back and I put my shades on.
"I like your skirt. Looks good on you." She complimented as she held my striped skirt.
"Thanks, bitch."
We went to our classroom together and I only waited 'til our lunch time. Sitting and listening to the professors was extremely boring and I wonder how my classmates copes with that? Can't they feel the boredom? I just want to control the time and make it fast forward!
Our mathematics lesson finally ended. My classmates, especially Rocelia has wrote a lot of equation on her notebook. I unconsciously looked down on mine. Empty and all clean.
"Need pen?" My seatmate at the left, Joey suddenly, asked.
I shook my head. He scratched his head shyly and rested back on his seat.
"You should write all the formulas our prof have written on the board. It's a big help just so you know. You can easily memorize those." Rocelia intruded.
I yawned,"No need. I can memorize it all just by staring for too long," and shrugged.
*****
I almost jumped in glee when our lunch time came. I immediately grabbed my bag and left the room. I let Rocelia followed me on my way to the Cafe. I can sense everyone looking at me with admiration, I received some compliments and praises. I just gave them my flying kiss and I waved my hands cutely. Well, perks of being pretty.
I slammed the door of the cafeteria when I got there. Everyone inside turned to me. Some moved to other tables which is far from me. I took out my shades and surveyed the whole place. I started to walk towards the first table, I put one of my heels on the bench, beside the guy with curly hair and his friends.
"Who owned these foods?" I asked in my normal voice, looking at them.
"This is mine.." the first girl pointed the fries.
"Mine," the other pointed the shortcake.
I nodded continuously.
"What if you give all those to me? Is that all right?" I'm overseeing the foods on their table.
"What? Why would we give these to you? Have you lost your mind?" The girl with piercing exclaimed.
I paused and removed my scarf. I gave it to Rocelia who's just behind me. I let the girl see that I have piercing, too.
"Well, I'm lazy to go to the counter. But if one of you will volunteer to buy me foods then, I won't take these foods away. Are we clear?" I said calmly.
The boy with curly hair stood up and pointed me."You have feet! Buy your own food and don't disturb us!"
Uh-huh. What a brave. This school is really unique, including the students. I feel challenged even more.
"Then, I have no choice but to do this."
I aimed gasps and shouts from them when I kicked out their table as their foods fell and scattered on the floor. They look so horrified, the girls almost cry. The curly boy went near me, face reddened and brows furrowed in so much hate.
"What is your fvcking problem, woman?!" He roared.
"I already gave you choices but you chose this to happen. Blame yourselves, not me." I shrugged.
"Vanez, shit!" Rocelia cursed tensely.
I wondered and gave her a look. She pointed something through her lips. My mind was in chaos as I followed what she's pointing. I stilled for a moment when my eyes met the cold and mysterious depths of Yukenzo. He's with a guy same his height but not wearing specs not like him. His forehead creased upon seeing the mess I made.
"What the..." I heard him whisper.
"She did it again, didn't she?" The guy beside him, said. I know he's pertaining to me.
Yukenzo looked at me coldly. I don't know why I can feel an authority in his every moves and looks when he's not that scary at all! He's like a stick!
"Van, I told you already!" Rocelia nearly cried.
"You're really testing my patience, huh. You stubborn lady. I already warned you but I didn't know you're this difficult. What benefits have you receive every time you're bullying others? Fame? Compliments? Or do you just want to aim some respect? If that then, you're doing wrong because you know what? Your abominable attitude just telling us that you're thirsty for attention." He said it calmly but it gave me a huge impact.
I gritted my teeth."That's not true! Remember this, I'll make your life a living hell! All of you!"
I left the Cafeteria fully annoyed and mad.
